Is there any way to warm this wax without using a warmer? Would it be possible to put it in the microwave?

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.

NO! Never put it in the microwave! This is professional wax that has to be used with the wax warmer.

If not a warmer..place the wax container half or 3/4th dipped in a pan filled with water. Heat this pan of water on your cooking range till the wax melts. And use d wax side by side.Or empty the wax in a microwavable/plastic container and try heating it on a soup auto heat mode.

no, it say's that it is unsafe to warm in the microwave it can get too hot and burn the skin. Also the wax won't melt evenly only certain part like sides or top part of the wax, which can get too hot. the warmer is what melts it evenly at the same temp through out the wax which you can control what temp you would like the wax to be on. There are waxes made to be warmed in the microwave, but these wax containers are men't for warmers.

I reread the instructions 2-3 times, it says remove plastic rack before heating wax. then when wax is melted, prior to putting in your hand, you put in the plastic rack so you don't burn your hand with the burner that heats the rack.

You have to have the wax heating unit to use this wax. This is a great product. Very gentle with great removal.

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)

I think one should be able to heat it with hot water. I don't have this product, but i am thinking of buying it and am scared of heating things in microwave. http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards2.htm

I wouldn't, because it's in a plastic container, and the plastic will melt. I would recommend getting a hard wax warmer.

Take it out of the package and use a microwavable plate that works best. And yes it does taste better when you microwave it. I hope that helped Chris.

I'm not sure if that would work. I don't think it would get the wax hot enough.

If the wax is really thick then it needs more time. I find when I start to melt the wax, I turn the wax warmer onto high and then lower it when ready to use. Make sure you blow on the wax and that it is not too hot. I hope this helps.

I did invest in the little Parissa wax warmer and I love it. It heats the wax evenly within 30 minutes, and it brings the wax to the right consistency. I have used the little pan of wax placed in another pan over low heat, but I found it gets messy and I got wax in the other pan. Much easier to do the wax warmer. So convenient. Good luck!

Yes it sounds like the wax is too warm. Try turning it on high for 30 min then down to low for 15 min and then turn it off while you're waxing. This allows the melted wax to cool slightly and thus slightly solidify. Also try spinning the wooden applicator stick to prevent dripping.

I purchased the heating unit which you just plug in and wait for it to melt. I don't have any other suggestions- I invested in the unit because I was scared of overheating the wax and burning myself. Good luck!

You have to get a wax tin to put in the warmer. Do not put wax directly into the warmer

I would definitely melt it. It has a wax like consistency so it would be quite difficult to whip up. This seller is great because they send you recipes as to what u can mix and use it for.

I leave the wax in and reuse it. Just plug it in a few hours ahead and it should be fine.

Yes! I use my microwave to melt mine. I boil the jars, i pour my wax into, in a pot on the stove while the wax is melting. Always best for some reason to boil them. I think it makes a difference on how the wax cools down. Ive tried just pouring the wax straight in the jar without boiling. And the wax didnt settle right at all, as it hardened.
