 Soothing August 4, 2008
I bought this unit to help moisturize and care for my hands which I have unfortunately abused over the years. I should have worn gloves when gardening, cleaning, etc, but I didn't, and now my hands show it!! First of all, the unit is a good size for either feet or hands. There are little rubber discs on the bottom of it which keeps it from sliding around. You will need to use all the wax that comes with the unit in order to get a good depth. When reordering, you should use all six packages if you are completely changing out the wax. Although the instructions, say not to reuse the wax, I think you probably could. It's not like it gets dirty or anything. I haven't tried reusing it, but I don't see why you couldn't. The fragrance is wonderful. Although there is unscented wax, I think the fragrance is soothing and calming. It isn't overwhelming at all. The one thing I would suggest is to do one hand at a time. This may be common sense to some, but the first time I used it, I dipped both my hands. OMG!! I couldn't get the plastic liner on or the thermal mitt!! You should keep the hand fairly still and not bend it while the wax is working its magic. You can't do this if you're wrestling (unsuccessfully) with the liner and mitt for the other hand. I also found that wrapping a regular towel around my hand either with or without the mitt on really helps hold in the heat. Once you remove the wax (which just slips right off) you can finish rubbing ur lotion or hand cream into your hands. I apply argon oil and pure shea butter to my hands before I dip them in the paraffin wax. My hands look and feel so much better than they did when I first used it. Nothing will entirely erase the years I abused my hands, but this machine really helps. I highly recommend it.
Highly recommended! July 20, 2008

I knew the benefits of a paraffin hand bath from having had it done at the salon, and I was very happy to find the Revlon paraffin bath for such a reasonable price! It has already paid for itself, when you consider the cost of a paraffin manicure at a salon or day spa!
This is the only thing that works on my dry elbows. I've tried exfoliating and moisturizing with every type of product, only to end up with the same dry elbows by the next day. The paraffin bath, used after exfoliating and applying moisturizer, provides immediate results and lasts for weeks.
This purchase included everything I needed: the paraffin bath, four pounds of wax, soft mitts - with Velcro closures at the wrists to hold in the heat, and plastic glove liners.
I go through paraffin wax a little faster than I had expected; four pounds of wax are included with the kit. I've found that the initial four pounds should last about 6-8 uses. That all depends on whether you're doing hands or feet, how many times you dip your hand or foot for each treatment, and whether or not you recycle the wax. I know it's not recommended, so I don't recycle the wax. Paraffin wax is inexpensive, and can be purchased online or over the counter at a pharmacy or grocery store.
My hands take a lot of wear and tear. I work in a hospital, so it's constant hand washing and alcohol-based hand sanitizers... Then when I'm at home, I do a lot of gardening and yardwork. So I'm very glad to be able to pamper myself with a little spa treatment after all that!
FYI: The "Keep Warm" setting was too warm for me. Just a personal preference; I turn it down between "Low" and "Med". I melt the wax on the "HI" setting, which takes about 90 minutes. Then I turn the setting down and wait 15 minutes or so. Still get great results, but it's much more comfortable to use!
Definitely a great buy.
Melts Paraffin a timely manner June 11, 2008
I had a paraffin bath before and it literally took 8 hours to melt the wax. This one takes about 90 minutes which is much better and you can't beat it for the price. I garden a lot and this makes my hands soft and it feels good on my joints. I would recommend it to anybody. Can't really go wrong here. good for your feet also.
 Very Soft Hands June 5, 2008
This is my second paraffin bath, but my first one from Revlon. I like this one better. Easy to use. I used as directed. I found that afterward, my hands were so soft and had a smooth look. I try to use it every day but at least 3 times a week. I prefer to use at night to give the effect time to work without having to wash my hands.
I would definitely recommend this product.
I'm not too keen on the Lavender color of the lid, would have preferred a choice, but can't have everything!!!
Revlon paraffin bath - Great product! May 20, 2008

I've been using this paraffin bath for several weeks for a post-surgery hand that continued to be painful. It feels great during each treatment, and I think the prolonged heat is doing some permanent good. I'm amazed at how well this product is built, and it comes at a very good price. I recommend it without reservation.
