Before You Apply — Quick Prep
- Remove hair as normal — waxing, threading, shaving, sugaring or epilating all work
- Cleanse and dry the area fully
- Apply the oil immediately after, while the follicle is most receptive
Face
For the upper lip, chin and jawline, use a very small amount — half a drop is usually enough for the whole area. Pat gently into clean, dry skin rather than rubbing. A patch test on a small area first is recommended before treating the full face.
Underarms
One of the most common areas of use. Apply a small amount immediately after hair removal and massage in gently until absorbed. Continue daily, even on days you haven't removed hair, for the most consistent results.
Legs & Arms
Because these are larger areas, use slightly more oil — a few drops per leg is typical. Massage in circular motions after shaving or waxing. Daily use on treated areas helps maintain consistency between hair removal sessions.
Bikini Area
Yes — Cyperus Rotundus Oil can be used on the bikini area, and it's one of the most requested uses. Because skin here is more sensitive, apply a smaller amount than you would on the legs, and always do a patch test first if you haven't used the oil on this area before. Apply immediately after waxing, sugaring or shaving, once the skin has calmed, and continue daily.
How Often Should You Apply It?
For all areas, the pattern is the same: apply immediately after hair removal, then continue once daily — including on days when you haven't removed hair. Results build gradually, typically becoming noticeable after 4–8 weeks of consistent use. Skipping days won't cause harm, but consistency is what drives results.
