DIY Hair Removal Wax- Sugaring



Sugaring is an all natural hair removal method which originated in the ancient Middle East.

What You Will Need:

-  1 cup of granulated white sugar-  1/4 cup of honey (local honey for extra sensitive skin)
-  Half of a large lemon, freshly squeezed


Step 1: Combine your white sugar and freshly squeezed lemon juice in a clean microwave-safe bowl. Keep stirring as you slowly add in your honey.

Step 2: Place your mixture in the microwave and heat on high for 3 minutes.

Step 3: Let wax cool for a few minutes before applying to avoid burns.

Before applying to your hairy areas, dust on some cornstarch over your skin. Once sufficiently dusted, apply the paste and cover it with a cotton strip. Press down firmly on the strip then tear off quickly in the opposite direction of hair growth.

Quick Sugaring Tip: The smaller the cotton strip, the easier it is to rip off without tearing the skin
