What you'll notice in the first service

Picks up what gets left behind
01

Picks up what gets left behind

The wax catches vellus and fine hair as readily as it catches coarse, so brows come out clean and a leg doesn't need a second pass for what the first one missed.

Smooth through the whole application

Smooth through the whole application

Creamy formulas usually give up some flexibility. Nova's doesn't. It spreads soft and even, and a thin coat carries a full leg or back without going patchy.

Gentle by design

Strip removal asks more of skin than most formats do. This one is built to hold its gentleness anyway.

What estheticians say

Verified

If you've been using Nova Hard wax for a while and you're used to the creaminess and gentleness of that wax, you will be obsessed with how similar this soft wax feels! It's still so gentle and picks up all the small hairs. Brow clients have been so happy with how clean their brows look.

I am a Soft Wax Specialist and can get very picky with the formula I work with. I switched to Nova and it has quickly become my favorite in the industry. Please never stop making this!

Gets every hair, every time with minimal discomfort to my clients!

Jess

I always tell my clients it's the most gentle yet effective wax, started with the hard wax, then I made my way to the soft wax as well!

Mandy

Great quality wax, applies very thin and is easy to work with.

Where it earns its place

Creamy Nova soft wax running off a spatula back into the warmer, showing the consistency behind a thin, even coat

Every service below is one where a thin, even coat does more than a thick one can.

Brows and face

Fine and vellus hair come up readily, and it shows most at the brow line. A thin coat holds a clean edge and takes the hair with it.

Legs, arms, and back

Large areas are where a thin coat pays for itself. One even pass per section, and a can that covers more services before you open the next one.

Bikini line and upper thigh

Hair here runs finer and the area is broad, which is exactly what a thin, stretchy coat handles well.

How it's built

Gentle is the standard, not the exception

Liz, Nova Wax co-founder and licensed esthetician

Liz developed Nova's core formula out of her own experience as an esthetician, so it was built for both sides of the service. What the client feels and how the wax handles in your hand. Every format since has been built off that base, this one included.

Rosin is what most strip wax uses for grip, and it's also the most common thing clients react to. Nova's soft wax uses a synthetic resin instead. Same hold on the hair, without the ingredient behind most of the trouble.

The creamy consistency is doing work too. It cushions on contact, which is what makes the pull land softer. Underneath it, a mineral oil base keeps the wax gliding over skin instead of gripping it, so the barrier stays intact when the strip comes off.

More services per can

500ml. Most professional strip wax ships at 400. That extra 100ml is more services out of every can you open, which is where per-service cost actually lands. The gap only widens at higher order volumes, so a room ordering by the case feels it more than one buying a single can at a time.
