Outback Organics

The secret to a good waxing isn't just the therapist, the wax they use and their skill - it is also the after care by the client. We give you smooth skin, but it is up to the client to help and ensure it stays that way and they get the best results from their waxing. And a key part of this is using suitable after care products designed to look after your skin after a waxing. 

A few years back I was fortunate enough to be introduced to an amazing product from a small family run business down in Somerset. The Outback Organics range started out as a range of Tea Tree skin and personal care products. The range has now grown to include products designed specifically for use after hair removal treatments - be that waxing, sugaring, shaving or even IPL / Laser.

A lot of products on the market for post-wax care were formulated a long time ago in a laboratory far far away. And they also contain chemicals more clients and therapists are becoming aware of - parabens for example. The Outback range is paraben free, and aims to use as many natural and / or Organic ingredients as possible. The products featured below were developed over more then a year of research, testing, tweaking and more testing to get the perfect formulations. And the best thing about them is that they have been designed for waxing clients as they were developed by therapists who spend most of their days in Salon's waxing!

After Wax Home Care Products

For me these are the signature products in the range, they answer the problems clients have been calling out for!

Post-Wax Spray

There are two great things about this product, most importantly it works. Feedback from those who have used it was overwhelmingly positive, clients have found their skin looks and feels a lot better when using the product. They have also reported that outbreaks of spots after waxing clear up quicker, if they appear at all.

And the second great thing, it is quite unique for a product of this nature, is that it is a spray. Pretty much every other waxing product on the market comes as a cream, gel or lotion. Which is great for applying to chests, arms, legs etc. Not so much for the back!

"Post-Wax Spray is a soothing, alcohol-free mist to help prevent and treat irritation, bumps and pimples that occur on the body after waxing or shaving. Aloe vera and cucumber extract have been expertly blended with Australian bush mint and menthol to cool and calm the skin, while the antibacterial effects of lemon myrtle oil and grapefruit pith extract protect the skin against irritation by supporting the skins natural defences."

Back and shoulders is by far the most popular male waxing treatment any salon can offer, and for many the lack of a suitable after care product has been frustrating. Some of the stories of guys trying to spread a moisturising lotion on their back evenly have been quite amusing. But now that is a thing of the past, get out of the shower, dry yourself off and a few squirts of this and your on your way to soft smooth skin.

Directions for Use: Apply to clean skin, twice a day for 5 days after waxing or shaving. Continue using for a further 5 days if pimples develop. Seek medical advice if symptons don't improve. Not recommended for use on face or genital area.

Bush Balm

The name of this product has caused quite a stir in some circles, but personally I think it is great!

"This creamy, intensely moisturising mask quickly reduces redness and calms the skin after hair removal.

Aloe vera, allantoin and frankincense extract soothe sore skin, while shea butter and macadamia oil quench and deeply nourish. Bush Balm can be used straight after waxing and then between appointments to help prevent ingrown hairs and leave the skin soft and hydrated. It is especially suitable for sensitive areas such as the face and underarms and for use after intimate waxing or shaving"

I have been using this product in treatments since the Salon size product launched back in September – and the feedback from my own clients has been awesome. So good infact many keep asking me “when i can buy it to use at home?” And I am pleased to be able to say that all these products are currently available for purchase, prices at the bottom of the page.

Directions for Use: Immediately after waxing or shaving, apply a thick layer to treated area and tissue off any excess after 5 - 10 minutes. At home, massage into the skin using clean hands, 2-3 times a day.

Face & Body Scrub

Unfortunately some clients can be susceptible to the odd ingrown hair after a waxing / shaving treatment. If this is you, this product is absolutely perfect for you. Used two or three times a week it helps new hairs come through the skin easily and thus reducing the number of ingrown hairs. Particularly useful for underarms, bikini lines and the waistband area. I recommend that this is used in conjunction with the Skin Wash for a really good result, you can mix the two products in your hands before applying to the body.

"Our Face and Body Scrub gently loosens dean skin cells and improves the texture of dry, rough patches to leave the skin feeling silky smooth. Infused with bergamot orange, sandalwood, patchouli and rose oils, this rich, moisturising scrub contains jojoba micro-beads for a gentle yet effective exfoliating action. Enriched with natural organic cucumber extract, our creamy scrub is mild enough to use all over the face and body. With regular use your skin will feel deeply cleansed and invigorated."

Directions for Use: Apply a generous amount to the skin and massage in circular motions, concentrating on areas of hard skin and ingrown hairs. Rinse off under running water. Use 2-3 times per week.

Skin Wash

One of the original products in the Outback range, this my skin wash / shower gel of choice now - I use it at home or when away every day. The peppermint extract in this gives it fresh and invigorating aroma in the shower - perfect for those early morning starts!

"This gentle face and body wash with pure organic Tea Tree Oil, Mountain pepper Extract and Peppermint Oil deeply cleans the skin without stripping or drying. Vitality is restored to oily and problem skin revealing fresher, more vibrant skin. Use as a wash off-cleanser and face wash once or twice a day, a hand wash or an all-over body wash in the shower."

This Skin Wash does not contain parabens or SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate / Sodium Laureth Sulfate).

Directions for Use: To use as a face or body wash apply a small amount to the skin and add water to create a lather. Rinse thoroughly.

Hand and Body Lotion

One of the keys to maintaining your smooth skin after waxing, and helping to avoid ingrown hairs is to moisturise daily. This helps keep the skin supple which makes it easier for new hairs to grow out through the skin. This tea tree lotion is the perfect formulation, and like the Skin Wash contains no parabens.

"A nourishing hand and body lotion rich in Macadamia Oil that quenches and soothes dry, itchy skin leaving it silky soft and deeply hydrated. With pure Tea Tree Oil and Anisata it is safe and gentle enough to use straight after hair removal and can help in the treatment and prevention of ingrowning hairs often associated with waxing."

Directions for Use: Apply required amount into the palm of your hand and smooth onto the skin, focusing on areas needing extra nourishment.
