Waxwarning
Waxes with natural ingredients may not be the best choice for your clients and lead to negative or allergic reactions, warns wax expert Lilliane Caron (pictured below, left).
“To make a truly informed choice, we need to look at the core ingredient in wax - resin,” she says. “Over the years, the resins used in professional waxes and the processes to manufacture them have become more refined. To make it easy, there are two real categories we can put resins into, those derived from the sap of trees (generally Pine or Fir trees) and those that are synthetic (man-made).
“Usually we are told ‘natural’ is better but when it comes to Pine (tree) resin in waxes, unrefined resins can cause allergic reactions and product instability. Tree resins are generally referred to as Colophonium, or Rosin, on the ingredient listing, but unfortunately you are not going to know if it is good quality until you open the jar.”
She continues: “If you are trying a new wax, alarm bells should ring if clients are breaking out with itchy, red skin after or during a treatment. Hard waxes will become brittle and snap off which can lead to hair breakage and bruising of the skin if they are made from inferior grade resins.”
Lilliane, owner and director of CaronlabAustralia, believes that top of the range synthetic resins are much safer, as they are consistent in production, and advises you look out for the terms hydrocarbon resin or polycyclopentadiene on the ingredients listing.
