Title: OMG!!! Sugar waxing is the best
Post by: Jaymee on January 06, 2011, 07:33:33 AM
HI everyone,

Sugar waxing is the best way to remove Hair anywhere on your body, i discovered this on a website when i was looking up waxing. It is so easy to make . here is the recipe.

2 cups of sugar
1/4 cup of water
1/4 cup of lemon juice

bring the mixture to a boil without stiring for about ten minutes, it will start to go a brownish color remove from heat and use a tablespoon and dip it in the mixture and run under cold water if it hardens it is ready, let the mixture cool down and you can either apply with your hands or use a wax strip like regular waxing. um there is youtube videos out there how to make this recipe i use it all the time it is amazing and does not hurt anywhere near like waxing does, this has been aroun dfor hundreds of years so trust me it works unreal. Tip! after waxing do not shower for about 12 hrs. use a bit of baby oil after your done hair removal. this works for all areas of your body. HUGS everyone  :D


PS: you can reuse this mixture over and over just heat in microwave for 1 min and store in glass jars.

Hi,

Yes, you can use it on your face, but um remember it is sugar, and it will hurt a lil more then the rest of your body. so i would suggest using it in small quantity like small area of the face first and see how it turns out. Make sure the hair is at least two days growth. Yuk i hate facial hair so bad. thankgod i dont get much.
i would start with the upper lip area and you want to pull upwards quickly and also with one hand stretch your skin taunt. I would also before you use the wax soak your facial area with warm water to soften up the area. then use a little bit of baby power then wax. just a dusting.
