Nad's April Featured Bloggers - Thanks for the product reviews!!!

Fri, 20 Apr 2012 23:49:00 GMT

Hi everyone, meet this month's Nad's featured bloggers: Lori of Random Rumblings of a Stay at Home Mum, Emily of Arizona Spa Girl, Candice of Fashionably Organized, Laalaa of Dolce Vanity and Vanessa of NessaHead.

Nad's would like to say "Thanks Heaps!!!" for the great Nad's product reviews.

It's makes our job worthwhile knowing that our consumers are happy with our products. We take great effort in creating our hair removal products that it is always heartwarming to receive great feedback from our consumers :)

April Featured Bloggers (2012) - Thanks for the Nad's Product Reviews!!!

1. Lori - "The Brow Wax" - Random Rumblings of a Stay at Home Mum

We met Lori at the Blogger's BBQ organized by Kids Business. She had her first ever eyebrow wax in the Nad's booth! Watch her video blog documenting her "Wow Brow" experience using the Nad's Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper.

2. Emily Couch - "Nad’s Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper: Brow Wow!" - Arizona Spa Girls (USA)

"We have quite possibly stumbled upon the most amazing product ever...

The great people at Nad’s must have realized this was a national crisis because they have created an at-home eyebrow shaping kit that is truly incredible. Normally I would air on the side of caution when the words “hair removal” and “at-home kit” are present in the same sentence; however, the Nad’s Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper kit is the exception...

I found it very simple to shape my eyebrows just the way I like them without the complexity and time involved with tweezing, which is normally my fallback plan when I stumble upon an emergency brow situation."

3. Candice - Nad’s Eyebrow Waxing – in 10 Minutes - Fashionably Organized (USA)

"It’s no secret that money is very tight in my house, so giving up things like getting my eyebrows waxed has been hard, but necessary. I got the Nad’s Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper (@Nads), and was sceptical at first because I was afraid of doing my own at home wax. However, the other morning I took a look at the furry things above my eyes, and knew it was time to take a stand...

It was so much easier than I thought. I did it in 10 minutes, and realized I waited too long when I looked at the waxing strip and the hair I was able to remove. Yes, I still had to use a tweezer to fine tune, but I didn’t have to tweeze everything. What could be better then that?"

4. Laalaa - Nad's Products - Facial Wax Strips and Ingrow Solution - Dolce Vanity (UK)

"Honestly I never knew about Nad's until April when I was in London for my birthday & my friend Leila introduced me to the 'best wax strips' that she has ever used. Intrigued I picked up the 'Facial Wax Strips' { pack of 20 }

I must say for upper lip hair and eyebrows - perfect. Easy, clean and if it's done right you honestly should have no problems at all...

I did notice their 'Ingrown Hairs Solution' now I do suffer from ingrown hairs and bumps when it comes to the bikini line ... after a few days and the hairs start to come back it's such a pain in the backside.

No matter what I do or technique it seems to be destined so I started to use this after my last touch-up so far not so bad..."

5. Vanessa - Review: Nad's Facial Wand - NessaHead.com (US)

"Okay, so the brand name sounds funny. But this product is great! You turn the base and a little bit comes out, warms and becomes spreadable from your body heat, and the applicator moves it exactly where it needs to go. Slap on a supplied linen strip, smooth with an index finger, rip off with confidence, and you’re happily hair-free.

It’s around $10 and will work for around four sessions of eyebrows (top and bottom) and upper lip — cheaper than one waxing session at your local nail shop and much cheaper (I’d imagine) than a trip to one of those ridiculous-sounding “eyebrow salons.”

Nad’s discovers the truth behind hair….down there!

Mon, 16 Apr 2012 23:16:00 GMT

The jury is out, the majority of men prefer the Brazilian (hair free) when it comes to women’s ‘downstairs’ grooming. In fact, some men even described hair down there as a ‘turnoff’. However, modern women are not giving into the wants of men; the most popular grooming choice for women is a ‘neatly groomed area’.

Newsflash… the bush is not coming back. A whopping 85% of women choose to groom their ‘downstairs area’. Of these women, the majority are opting for ‘at home’ solutions to hair removal.

And if you think Australian women are using winter as an excuse to let themselves go, you’d be wrong. Over 60% of women ensure their groomed all year round, most sighting partners or ‘unexpected relations’ as the reason for their yearlong regime.

Interestingly guys are shying away from the below the belt afro too. Downstairs grooming is also the norm for men these days, with 64% of men choosing to primp their area.

And for guys looking at impress the ladies, it’s time to ditch the gorilla suit. Over half of the women of Australia sited a hairy man as a turnoff with back hair as the biggest male turnoff (over 60%) surprisingly followed by chest hair, with butt hair coming in at third.

Top Painless Alternatives to Waxing

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 03:25:00 GMT

Waxing is a method of hair removal that pulls the hair from the root. It can take weeks before the hair grows back, thus a lot of people prefer it over shaving.

However, some people have a very low threshold for pain that waxing can be an uncomfortable experience for them. But, there are several painless alternatives to waxing such as laser hair removal and hair removal cremes.

Laser hair removal is an effective method of permanent hair reduction whereby the majority of undesirable hairs will be destroyed over a course of treatments and will not re-grow. Potentially, a smaller percentage of finer or light vellus hair which is very hard to treat can persist however this is usually hard to see and very soft to the touch. Checkout www.nadsclinic.com.au to know more about laser hair removal.

Meanwhile, hair removal creme is another great alternative to waxing because it is totally painless. The active ingredients target the hair shaft for effective hair removal and smoother skin. The skin must be completely clean and dry before applying the cream. It must be liberally applied, and can be massaged with the fingertips to ensure that all sides of the hair is completely covered.

However, unlike our Nad's Original Gel which is made of natural ingredients, hair removal cremes or depilatory creams have to be very alkaline to dissolve the hair. They can sometimes cause irritation to very sensitive skins.

Thus, Nad's has three types of hair removal cremes to cater for our consumers who have sensitive skin and prefers a painless alternative to waxing.

1. Nad's Sensitive Hair Removal Creme is specifically formulated with soothing agents such as honey & chamomile to form a protective skin barrier, whilst the active agents target the hair shaft for effective and smooth hair removal.

2. Nad's Moisturising Hair Removal Creme is specifically formulated with moisturising agents such as avocado and olive oil to protect and moisturise the skin, whilst the active agents target the hair shaft for effective and smooth removal.

3. Nad's Facial Hair Removal Creme (currently available in UK only) is easy to use anywhere, anytime. Nad's Facial Hair Removal Creme is specifically formulated with soothing agents such as almond and calendula oil. The pain free creme dissolves hair in minutes leaving skin silky smooth.

Do you prefer depilatory creams over waxing? Have your tried any of our hair removal cremes? Let us know your tips and experience about painless alternatives to waxing by leaving a comment below.

Cheers!

How to Wax your Legs - Video and Instructions

Wed, 04 Apr 2012 03:36:00 GMT

Most people usually wax their legs. But for someone who is new to waxing, it can sometimes be difficult to wax effectively. However, if you follow the instructions closely...waxing can be as simple as spreading butter on toast.

Here is a video of our Nad's founder, Sue Ismiel demonstrating how to wax your leg:

Here are the step-by-step instructions on how to effectively wax your legs using the Nad's Natural Hair Removal Gel:

1. When you are using Nad's on your legs, 1st make sure that you have sufficient hair growth. It has to have something for it to cling onto, about a quarter of an inch of hair is good.

2. Clean with cleansing wipe, then dry completely.

3. Apply the gel thinly and slowly in the direction of the hair growth.

4. Put the backing strip on, go over it firmly - you must hold the back of the leg very taught and then pull it off quickly.

The best thing about it is the strip maybe used again. It is very handy for waxing the back of your legs which can sometimes be very awkward. There is no need to re-apply the gel. You can re-use the same strip that you used in the front of your legs. Moreover, by holding the back of the leg you will eliminate discomfort.

I hope you found these waxing and hair removal tips useful. Let us know your experience using our Nad's range of hair removal products. You can also ask our hair removal experts in our forum about any question regarding hair removal, how to achieve smooth skin or just feeling beautiful!

Cheers!

Nad's at the Blogger's BBQ, Melbourne - Australia

Tue, 03 Apr 2012 07:16:00 GMT

Last Saturday, 31st March 2012...the Nad's Team flew to Melbourne to attend the Blogger's BBQ organized by Kids Business.

The key highlight of the event for Nad’s was the reaction we received for the sneak peak of our YouTube video, “GloZell, Hairiest Man in Australia Uses Nad’s Hair Removal”. The response of the bloggers was just amazing!!!

Within 24 hours of the event, we experienced a 100% spike in our Twitter conversations and followers.

Hair Removal Tips for Men Video

Wed, 28 Mar 2012 05:13:00 GMT

Men are into hair removal too! I believe that this will be a growing trend because of our busy lifestyle. Why shave often when you can wax every few weeks?

Men haven been shaving for ages now, but hair removal covers much more than just shaving. Men now have a choice to use waxing strips, hair removal gel, hair removal cream, laser hair removal and the good old shaver.

Here is a great video of Nad's founder Sue Ismiel talking about different hair removal tips for men.

I hope you found this video informative. Are you into hair removal? What type of hair removal do you use? Share your tips, views and stories in our hair removal forum.

Cheers!
