I would be using these for facial waxing. Are they strong enough? or flimsy?

We only use them for stirring coffee....but they are not flimsy and they don't break very easily. Hope this helps.

That's hard to answer because I don't know how strong they need to be for facial waxing! I can only say that they are sturdy. You have to remember that they are only around 1/4" wide and not wide like a popsicle stick. I suspect they may be too narrow for facial waxing and not hold up.

I wouldn't use these for facial wax application. Some aren't totally smooth and I'd worry about splinters in my face! They are also pretty flimsy and may not hot up to the viscosity and the amt of hot wax you may use. They're really only good for coffee stir sticks or cake decoration stakes.

I think they would be strong enough. They're not as thick as a Popsicle stick but still sturdy and smooth.

These items are simple wood coffee stirring sticks. I know nothing about facial waxing and cannot comment.

They are really strong but as most things will tell you and the previous reviewer can attest to they are fragile. If they're not going to be hit directly they definitely would suit your purpose. They don't FEEL fragile but if you let them even into each other they can break.

I wish I could be as positive as the 3 comments i read. I found them to be hot and clammy, and even tho they were sticky they did not stay in place. They felt natural but uncomfortable (if that makes any sense). For a purely cosmetic NEED, they could suffice.

I really think so. They are great for "light" as they are made for welding. I was walking down Vegas Blvd. and got a lot of responses. The foam padding needs some 'buffering'. Maybe get some mole skin at the first aid station at your local store. I got the, for 'looks'. They are about the size of a cola can.

Definitively! They are pretty strong. Ideally you'd want another light from the top, but for a no budget film these are actually very fancy ;-) I use them to shoot against green screen and they work great! They're just a bit clumsy, so make sure you set them up well and be careful if you need to move them. For the price you really can't do better.

They are very thick and the cleaning "soap" is very liberal. I use two at a time when I need them, and then pat myself dry with a dry washcloth. I wouldn't use them on your face though. I am very happy with them. I first learned about them when I was in the hospital. I would only take one pack as there eight in the pack. Have fun on your trip!

I would guess that these would be adequate if you used enough of them... Like 6-10 per cloth. They are well made and feel strong.

These are not as high quality as more expensive ones. They do work well. The wax took a little longer to light also. If your using them as just a night activity they are fine. If your using them for a wedding or for multiple people to light and full the sky, then just one step up would work better. Hope this helps.

They are not that strong. I actually broke my first pair, but the manufacturer warrantied them very fast. I use mine to pull off heater core hoses, and hard to reach plug wires.

They work fine for me. Probably not tweezerman quality, but good enough to get the job done.

No they seem to be pretty strong. I haven't had any problems. Hope this helps.

No, they are not facial quality. I have them in a dispenser in my kitchen and use them instead of rolls of paper towels.

I am guessing so because each tooth is not whole and they are made out of resin so they are definitely not strong enough. I use them when I do gorey type special effects stuff.

These are very strong for floral use. I would not suggest using them to lift a desk, as they do not seem like they they are suited to support that much weight.

They hold a very small amount. They are about the size of a small carmex lip balm container. If you are ok with splitting the scrub up into many small amounts then yes. Otherwise I would look for something a little larger. Hope that helps a bit :)

I think you would be fine. I used them for serving cake. They didn't seem bendable to me.very nice quality.

They are well built not flimsy at all. Overall the quality is good. I have had mine for one month, I use them really frequently...
