Sugaring paste hair removal method is one of the most ancient technique for women to remove body hair. Nowadays, you can use waxing with sugaring paste hair removal either at your home, either in a cosmetic salon.

Let’s face it, there are some very easy hair removal methods available on the market, so why bother with sugaring and making your own sugaring paste for removing hair? Waxing and hair removal creams are very easy and pretty safe to apply even at your home, yet some people would like something more natural for their bodies. Also, some may opt for sugaring since they can not use waxing due to medical reasons.

Using sugaring for hair removal is pretty similar to waxing, we cover the pros and cons of sugaring vs. waxing. Most of people would like to know how to make a sugaring hair removal paste at home. So, here are the steps for a sugaring paste recipe:

1. You will need 2 cups of white cane sugar, 1/4 cups of water and 1/4 cups of lemon juice. Some people may not want to use lemon juice, which is fine, just replace it with water. Lemon juice needs to be fresh squeezed and free of any lemon lumps and seeds.

2. You put all the ingredients together in a cooking pan. Bring the ingredients to boil on a medium heat, them reduce the heat and just simmer the sugaring ingredients for 30 minutes. When the color changed to amber, then you know that the sugaring paste is ready.

3. Take off the sugaring paste from the fire and leave it to cool for another 20 to 30 minutes.

4. You can use it straight away or store it in the fridge.

If you want to use straight away, then you just use it on your clean skin the same as with waxing. You apply it on your skin, press it a little with your hands and a cotton sheet, then remove the sugaring paste in the opposite direction of the grown hair.

If you would like to use the sugaring paste later on, then you can reheat it in microwave or on a boiling pan, or you could use cold. While the first process is pretty self-explanatory, using cold sugaring for waxing  is a little bit different then how you are accustomed to use cold waxing strips. You take a small sugaring paste in your hand, rotate it to make a ball in your hand, then this you press it on your skin, spreading it so it covers a bigger area of your body.

Sugaring paste for hair removal works well not only on your body such as legs, arms and back, but also for face. It can be used by both women and men.

The most difficult thing about sugaring hair removal is to make the right consistency of the paste. Sometimes it is either too soggy, either too hard to use. Like waxing, sugaring paste can be bought nowadays from shops or online. You should look for sugaring paste kits, most are natural such as Sugar Me Smooth.
