Wax Reveal By Carmen

It sounds cliché, but it’s true.

My mom always says, “Nadie nació sabiendo,” which means “Nobody was born knowing.”

Everything you know today is something you had to LEARN. Nobody is perfect on day one, and repetition is what turns practice into confidence.

🍂 Fall skincare season is here.

I know we all want brighter, smoother skin and to work on those dark spots this time of year.

But if you’re getting your brows, lip, or any other waxing service, your skin needs a break.

🚨 Stop retinols, acids, and other active ingredients at least 5–7 days before waxing.

And if you’re getting a chemical peel, give your skin at least 2–3 weeks before waxing (depending on the strength and intensity of the peel).

Save this as your fall skincare + waxing reminder!

Just living a blessing. 🥹

I really do love what I do. And I’m so grateful I get to call this work. 🙏🏼

I stopped buying those long paint/stirring sticks for my wax and started using what I already had in the studio: my 6-inch sticks.

They do the job, I’m not adding another item to my inventory, and honestly… it’s one of those little changes that adds up and saves money over time.

But waxers, I want to know 👇🏼

Do you still buy the long paint sticks for stirring your wax? Do you notice a difference? Or do you use what you already have like I do?
