Anastasia Beverly Hills Mini Wax Kit Review

Ok, gather round kids. Let’s see if we can all sit nicely and try not to giggle while discussing our lady whiskers. Damn straight I said whiskers.

The Muse has a stash and she’s girl enough to admit it.

Here’s the deal between threading and waxing I’d say my mustache stays away for about two weeks time. Rolling into the end of week two I’m starting to sport a bit of a Frito Bandito mustache going on. Now the problem with this would be that my brows don’t catch up to my stash. So I’m kinda sitting around at the end of week two and hoping and wishing the dreaded uni-brow would grow in already so I can make one trip to the salon instead of two to get both the stash under control and the brows in one shot. But sadly, it never works out that way so I sit around and wait for my brows to catch up to the massive amount of hair that’s now growing on my upper lip because I’m too damn busy to go to the salon twice.

Let’s put it this way, it’s a scary sight.

Now I have a cool way to whisk away whiskers while my brows are busy growing back in!

Jump!

I purchased myself a little baby Anastasia Beverly Hills Mini Wax Kit! Weeeeeeee! Likey!

It set me back a mere $12 bucks and includes a chubby little tub of wax, five sticks, and 14 muslin strips. In my opinion you can’t beat the price. If you’re handy enough to work it on your brows you can prob split the clothes into 28 strips and get at least 14 uses out of the wax and if you’re using it on your stash, I’d say maybe the same if you cut the strips down the middle.

I won’t be attempting to do my brows as I know how clumsy I am and I’m kinda attached to the hair above my eyes, so yes, def not going to be playing with wax around this area. However, totally digging this for whisking away unwanted hair on my upper lip in between my regular thread or wax job.

Overall, I’d say it’s a rather cute little kit for travel or to use to get rid of unwanted hair quickly and easily. I rather like it for in between my visits to my regular girl as I mentioned above. Price can’t be beat since it’s a complete kit. Some may argue that you can get a HUGE tube of wax for the price but I personally love the tiny size and the fact that it includes everything I need in one go.

Loves it!

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

      lindsay it’s kinda fun to keep around for quickly getting off unwanted hairs. Granted not going to the job of a full leg wax lol but unwanted brow hairs and whiskers on your face it’ll do great with. It heats up in your microwave right in the little tub too! 😀
