Sensitive skin reacts more strongly to heat, pressure, and friction, all elements involved in waxing. This may lead to:

• Temporary redness

• Sensitivity or burning

• Small bumps or irritation

• Dryness or inflammation

At Citrine, our estheticians choose wax formulas and techniques that minimize these reactions, leaving your skin smooth, healthy, and calm.

Hypoallergenic Wax for Maximum Comfort

We choose gentle, fragrance-free waxes that adhere to hair, not your skin.

Low-Temperature Waxing Options

Perfect for rosacea-prone or reactive clients who cannot tolerate heat.

Calming Pre- & Post-Wax Care

We prep the skin with soothing solutions and finish with aloe, chamomile, or anti-inflammatory serums.

Skilled Estheticians Trained in Sensitive Skin Waxing

Quick, precise techniques minimize discomfort and reduce irritation.
