Intended for anyone who has just been waxed and wants to calm the skin and reduce the chance of ingrown hairs, dryness or irritation afterward. It's a standard finishing step for estheticians and a useful addition to an at-home waxing routine.

Skin right after waxing is more prone to redness, irritation and ingrown hairs, and this lotion is formulated specifically for that window rather than as an all-purpose moisturizer. The combination of tea tree oil's calming properties with nourishing plant oils addresses both the immediate discomfort and the longer-term risk of ingrown hairs in one after-care step.

• Apply after waxing by massaging gently into the skin in a circular motion.
• Use on the freshly waxed area as the final step of the service.

Pros:

• Plant-oil formula (soybean, sunflower, wheat) moisturizes skin left dry or tight after waxing
• Tea tree oil adds a mild antiseptic, calming effect to reduce redness and irritation
• Helps guard against ingrown hairs when used consistently after each wax

Cons:

• Contains wheat-derived ingredients, so it's not suitable for anyone with a wheat or gluten sensitivity applying it to broken or irritated skin
• Meant specifically for post-wax use, not as a general daily body lotion
