Horrible
Doesn’t work and just sticks on skin. Stays on there for hours even after scrubbing.

New formular does not dry or stick to wax paper so does a really really bad job at removing hair.

Positive reviews are rigged.
Awful. Of course it doesn’t work. What happened to the body and Brazilian waxes that worked? Do any of you working on these products realize the effort we go through to even test it? Naked, prep, pain. Wanting to trust. And you give us this crap, like you don’t even care.

TERRIBLE new formula!!
I’ve been using SH wax for YEARS and this new wax is TERRIBLE. I am thoroughly infuriated with this terrible new formula! It is NOT user error, I’ve successfully worked with many wax products, especially the originally SH wax and I understand cutting costs for profit and inflation but this is such a backward and terrible move. New formula does NOT grab all the hair, I don’t even think HALF, it is TOO sticky, does not dry down and grab the hairs, and is just plain messy and TERRIBLY INEFFECTIVE. Initially I thought I liked the new look and how it seemed creamy, BUT IT IS TERRIBLE. This is so disappointing. Could not work with it at all, immediately going in the trash and I would hate to ever purchase again. Please change back the formula!! If not the original formula THEN AT LEAST AN EFFECTIVE and COMPARABLE formula :( This is ridiculous.

Wonderful, willing wax treatment at home.
I use the Sally Hansen body wax all the time, and it seriously never lets me down. It’s easy to use, grabs the hair well, and doesn’t irritate my skin. I love how smooth everything feels afterward. The results last way longer than shaving, which is a huge win. The process is quick, once you get a hang of it. The wax is has a light, sugary scent to it, which smells nice when heated. Also, don’t worry about sticky residue, because it comes with oil wipes to remove anything left on skin.

Ole faithful! My go to product!
This is definitely my go to product! I sometimes have to use other products when this is sold out, but I consider this my ole faithful! I’ve used this for many, many years! It easy to apply because no heating up! The instructions are easy to follow and understand. This product removes just as much if not more than a hot wax for me! It’s small and convenient because you don’t have a wax melter, beads, and sticks you have to keep up with… just a tiny little box that has all you need. This box even comes with the oil or oil wipes to help soothe and get any sticky residue that may be left behind. So, this is a must have for any of my dark haired girls, especially if you are dealing with PCOS or any other type of Hormonal issues!

Why wpuld they change this.
I have been using the all over body wax by sally Hansen for years. I wax my brows, my lips, and my bikini area. Loved that wax. Worked amazing, no residue, minimal if any irritation and at waxing salons I always get irritation. I was running low and searched and searched but couldn’t find the one I had so I bought this one hoping it would be okay. It’s completely different it’s messy and sticky. It’s awful. So while yes I’m sure with a lot of time and practice it could potentially work well, why change to an entire different type of wax. I went out the next day and bought Gigi wax and it actually is better than the original sally hansen. So if you were looking for the old formula, don’t try this one just head out and buy Gigi all purpose wax it’s pretty similar.

Harsh & Ineffective
I’ve used this product on myself for years and loved it — until I tried the new formula for the first time two nights ago. I’m an experienced waxer with slightly sensitive skin, and I truly thought this was a product I could trust. Unfortunately, not anymore. When I purchased it online, I didn’t realize the formula had changed until I opened the box. I do like the new container design, but the formula itself is a huge disappointment. Immediately after pulling the strips, my skin began to burn. I haven’t waxed in a couple of months, so at first, I thought it might just be me. However, I noticed that many hairs were left behind, which has never happened before. The next day, my skin was still sensitive and slightly burned, and by the following day, the areas I waxed were red, rough, and flaky — almost like a very thin scab without any bleeding. My wax wasn’t too hot, I didn’t overlap strips, and I followed all directions carefully. Despite that, this new formula still damaged my skin and failed to remove all the hair. Bottom line: This new version is harsh, ineffective, and not worth the risk. I’m officially done with this product.

Easy peasy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a busy wife and mom, I don’t always have time to schedule salon appointments, so Sally Hansen’s Body Wax has truly been a lifesaver. It’s easy to use, not too messy, and actually works — it pulls the hair out from the root and leaves my skin silky smooth for weeks. I was a little nervous the first time I tried it, but the directions were super clear, and once I got the hang of it, the process was quick and painless compared to other at-home wax kits I’ve tried. I love that it comes with finishing oil to remove any leftover wax and soothe the skin — such a thoughtful touch! It’s perfect for legs, arms, and even smaller areas, and I really appreciate how long the smooth results last. No more razor bumps or daily shaving! For the price and convenience, this product can’t be beat. Sally Hansen’s Body Wax gives me salon-quality confidence right from my own bathroom.

Whatever you do, don't
This wax is a NIGHTMARE. I had been using Sally Hansen wax and wax strips for 20+ years then they switched the formula to this. It leaves a sticky residue on the skin that’s hard to remove and it gets everywhere. The strips are more difficult to remove and pull the skin really hard. Somehow the container leaked in my linen closet and ruined everything in its miserable blue path as dripped down each shelf. It has even found its way on my cat. My only explanation is now it’s capable of teleporting itself to destroy other aspects of my life. Just don’t do it. Maybe this is Sally’s way of getting out of the wax business.
