Bikini Hard Waxing Advice? 👙🤷🏻‍♀️

I recently ordered a Wax Warmer Kit because I wanna start waxing my bikini like ONLY. I’m so tired of shaving all the time there and I think it’d look much better for summer time 😌💕 Anyway, it doesn’t come with any pre-application lotion or something so I just wanted some alternatives to what I can use to exfoliate, smooth and remove around my area and what should I apply after and before the procedure? I’m taking in any advice really.
