Today, we will be talking about waxing — which wax should you choose for your monthly grooming ritual. And what is all the fuss about rica wax vs. normal wax.
In this post, we will cover:
Rica wax is actually a liposoluble wax manufactured by Italy-based company Rica. Liposoluble what? It is made of resin extracts and vegetable oils unlike regular or normal wax is made of sugar or honey. Because it’s all natural and no chemicals, Rica is the best wax for sensitive skin.
Benefits of Rica wax:
Regular wax has been around for ages. It is primarily made of sugar or honey but contains chemicals as well. It is not suitable for sensitive skin owing to the chemicals present.
Disadvantages of regular wax
I strongly recommend that you go for Rica wax over Normal wax. Even though Rica wax is more expensive than normal wax, the price difference is nothing compared to the benefits of rica wax. And the reasons are:
Parameters | Rica Wax | Normal Wax |
Hair removal | Swift, painless and no hair left behind | Painful, requires multiple application and still small hair are left behind |
Skin types | It is suitable for all skin types and is highly recommended for sensitive skin | It is suitable for normal and dry skin only |
Effect on skin | Leaves the skin soft and nourished because the wax is organic and pre-wax and post-wax oils are applied | Leaves the skin sticky and itchy with patches of redness and bumps |
Flavours available | White Chocolate, Honey, Strawberry, Coconut, Milk, Aloe Vera, Green Apple | It has just variant available. |
