What's the difference between the Wax and the Balm? When/why use one over the other?

The balm is more for conditioning your hair with minimum control for styling. The wax is thicker than the balm and is ideal for styling and controlling stray hairs.

I have used both and find no difference in them. I prefer the cream because I only use it on my face and it lasts a long time. The lotion being thinner works better for larger areas such as the shoulders or back.

I think the satin has a silkier finish, smoother and the semi-matt has a courser mix of powder. I am no expert! Only know Corn Silk is the best no-shine powder. I have very oily forehead and nose and Corn Silk is only product that really keeps away the shine.

I didn't know Neocutis made a balm. I'm only familiar with the cream & the gel. I would ask the company what the difference is.

This kit has the all purpose honee wax and the mini pro kit has the "Creme Wax" which is for sensitive skin. I was told by a Sally Beauty Supply associate that the Creme wax does not grab the coarse hairs as well as the all purpose wax does. I'm sure there are a few other differences in the two kits but I think that is the most obvious one.

Sealant is used INSTEAD of wax .....Wax only last approx 6 weeks..................Sealant will last approx 6 months................Sealant is applied just like wax

I have done both, waxed and unwaxed. For larger candled either is fine. For votives, waxing is definitely the way to go. It extends burning time for the wick and allows the votive to melt evenly. I use both soy and beeswax and I find the same is true for both.

From my experience the balm is a bit thicker, but can still be worn morning under makeup and night. I found the balm to be a bit more moistrurizing.

Technically you can use either but, the white Shea butter looks better (in my opinion) and the white Shea butter doesn't smell as strong as the yellow.

I use both products. You can use the pre-shave as a post shave balm, it works fine. I just happen to have both and use the after shave lotion to finish. I think both have the same cleansing/soothing attributes.

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.

SynWax is more durable. It can be a stand alone product, but it's best used before the wax.

There's really no difference. They're just scented differently. I read the ingredients on the bottle for wood floors and the regular blue bottle for all other floors and they're exactly the same. I've used both on my hardwood floors and I can't tell a difference between either type. I think the company just wants people to buy both kinds to use on different floor so they can make more money!

If you are using it as a balm or conditioner like it is intended, you just use a bit less and massage it in. It doesn't have the consistency of a wax, so don't go into thinking it is a sculpting wax type product. It's a great conditioner, you just have to tailor the amount to your beard. It doesn't take much in the palm of your hand. for a fool beard, I use less than a "dime size".

You just pull up the wax like you would with the strip. It works just the same, but with less hassle!

The difference is, the quick wax is to protect the paint of your car. The ultimate quick detailer protects the wax job that protects your paint job. And only use the both for the body of the car. No mirrors. So you buy the quick wax if you have not had a wax job. But I have my car waxed every six months and use the quick detailer to protect the wax job on my car. Hope this helps.
