Does this work on armpits? When you heat it up on stove, do you just place the metal cup straight on the stove or are you supposed to put it in a pot?

I put the metal cup directly on the stove. It melts pretty quickly, so you want to keep an eye on it. Make sure to use an oven mitt when you take it off the stove. The handle doesn't get too hot, but why take chances.As far as using this product to wax under my arms -- I don't and I think it might be a bit of a challenge. Unless you have a lot of experience waxing, I'd recommend sticking with waxing and using muslin strips to remove the wax.

I've never used it for under the arms, so I don't know. But for warming, I used to use another skillet to place it in while warming. But I found it too tedious so I ended up getting the Parissa warmer and it works like a charm.

Yes, I use this on my underarms all the time, it's so awesome. You can place the metal cup directly on the stove (just be careful when gently stirring as it heats up, so that the melted wax does not spill over on stove). I have used this for 7 years, I love it!!!

I have a handle holder that is more like a quilted potholder. I leave it on the handle of my pan which I use everyday. I like it better than these silicone ones that can get singed by the electric stove burners.

I use it on a glass stovetop. I believe the best way to use it is to started on high, then cut to medium when the brew starts. Hope this helps.

I put it in a throw away tin and heat it. You can use a microwave just make sure you check the temperature of the wax before you slap it on your skin so you don't get burned

I put it right on out glass stove and it works great. The real brewing part takes place up top in the method. Hope that helps.

Funny you should ask-I looked for one too but Couldn't find one. You can go to their facebook page and ask them. I think I will too. One other tip . I was using tan towel prior to Fake Bake. Now, I use both at the same time. I apply tan towel and put the towelette in a Plastic Bag,then that night I spray fake bake to the used tan towel and apply it to my skin. It really works great- Just make Sure to Always use gloves. I have noticed that after several uses the Fake Bake Application Mitt becomes Stiff and then it takes more product on the Glove for a correct smooth application. You might want to think about getting 2 mitts as opposed to one.

The main cup is just plastic so watch your heat. You should use the soup cup. It has a vent for just that purpose.

I sort of wrap my arm around it and pry it off with my hand. It works that way with and without pot holders.

I don't use it on my stove. The glass is thin and I think with repeated uses the glass bottom would crack. I've had this happen with a glass coffee pot that was supposed to be used on a stove. I bought a metal base that uses a votive candle to keep the pot warm.

Maybe, but it is small, covering only a small portion of the stove-top burner, and the metal is not as thick on the bottom as a normal pot because it is designed to use with a steam wand and not through direct contact with a high heat source. I wouldn't use it on the stove.

I used (1) tablet to a 16 oz steel cup the other day, it didnt get it to a rolling boil or anything, but it burnt out just in time for the water to reach a slight boil, but then went out. It worked fine for my hiking meal and I will definantly be ordering more of these in the future.Wind is a killer, so be sure to block the wind somehow, but BE VERY CAREFUL!! It gets hot! Also you cant see the flames!

I use mine in the lodge pot, when done I wash with hot water (no soap) and put back into the pot on the burner to heat a bit. I always heat mylodge pots after washing so as to dry any dampness. My lodge book says you can oil with a cooking spray. I don't like the sticky feel, would usevery little solid shortening and place in oven for a while instead. Hope this helps some.

Put a magnet or magnetic stick up on the pot bottom. If the magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, it will work. If it does not stick, it will not work. A thick bottom that conducts heat evenly is best for even cooking.

I put mine on the stove top and keep it filled with water. When my stove is heating/heated, it provides moisture to the house and helps with humidity in the winter. Looks really cute in my green and white kitchen. Have fun with it.

Works for tea as well. Have made mint tea with it before with dried mint leaves. The screen can be unscrewed if you have too, never have. Once the plunger in pushed down; on the coffee/tea the pot itself keeps it warm for a while. I like that its metal, others have always broken with time. Use this everyday...advid coffee drinker.

I have no idea about how it would work on an induction stove top. We have heating coils.

I got these for my underarms. I was able to do both underarms with half of the jar. I am not sure if you use it as intended. Very happy with how I am using it though. Would recommend this item.
