What comes besides the warmer unit? Is a can with or without wax included at least? I have lose wax I want to warm but need an empty can

I did not receive any wax with my order. Not sure if this is an error, or if the seller changed it.

The can of wax is included and with the wax warmer; the wax is supposed to allow people to peel off the wax instead of using strips so strips are not included. However, peeling off the wax is much more painful than if you purchase a wax that requires strips. The warmer is a good unit and I would recommend it, but the wax didn't impress me at all. I would not recommend buying strips with this wax because the wax is thicker than the wax that requires strips.

If you mean container as in the wax itself, then no it doesn't come with the wax warmer. You gotta buy it separately!

The metal piece is not used for wax, it is a type of cup holder for the wax container that you need to insert the wax container into the metal piece. Sort of like a cup stacked onto another cup type. Gigi warmer is sold separately from several Gigi wax products that you can find here on Amazon. Be sure to remove the plastic top off before you begin to melt the wax container! Don't forget the collars they are so helpful in keeping your warmer clean from drippings of the wax! Hope this helps you!

Yes. Strange enough, I purchased a candle warmer and it does heat the wax. Keep in mind that it may take up to 45 minutes to completely warm up but it does get the job done.

get yourself a $25 wax heater on Amazon. It will be easier to keep the mess and hassle all contained instead of attempting other microwave options suggested. With a heater the temp will be more consistent too.Gigi Wax Warmer (Model: 0225)

Did you pour the wax into the little bucket that it comes with? It won't warm up if the wax is in the original can. You have to warm it & dump it in.

Ours was sold separately. We still love how the heat is consistent and without flareups that can burn our hands. We kept ours protected using a solid BBQ cover.

I Brazilian wax which uses considerable amount of wax per time and am only half way thru the container. Guessing I've done it 7-10 times so far. So I've been very satisfied. The higher quality and steady temperature of the warmer keeps wax better and you really find that you'll use thinner layers than going thru the re-microwaving process of small jars from cvs or wherever else. I do recommend sally brand pre-epilation and post calming oils. I didn't find the lotion that came with this to be as satisfying. I had plenty of the oils left from small sally jar wax kit. not sure if you can buy the oils individually since I haven't needed to yet.

The pot of wax that sits inside the warmer is removable and you just buy a new container of wax to refill.... If you ever run out. It's a lot of wax.

ehhh i really wouldn't advise that. if you ever wanted to use any other type of wax, it'd be a pain in the butt to clean out. i'd recommend instead getting a tin can (maybe a coffee tin?) that can fit inside the warmer, and then putting the honey wax in THAT.

i donot keep my machine on all the time. when i use it is the only time it is on .it takes about 1 hour to melt wax right.

You can use whatever wax you'd like, however if you're going to put the wax either straight into the warmer or put the plastic container into the warmer, I WOULD NOT recommend this. The plastic WILL melt. If you have some way to maybe put it into a tin and then into the warmer, you'll be alright.

This product is meant to be used with a wax warmer like the ones made by Gigi. This is really the safest way to melt the wax and to get the best use out of this product.

It goes from room temp (about 25C) to 66C to melt all the wax. Then you need to reset it for a comfortable temperature (51-54C). It does go up in increments of 1C, but you can only set the end point temperatures.

Hi John,Satin Smooth has their own wax in terms of variety the 14 oz. containers will fit easy in this warm up contraction. If you are looking to purchase this warmer the 14 oz. is the correct fit for this warmer. Happy waxing! Hope this was of some use to you, sorry just checked my e-mail.
