Do you know what sugaring is? No, it is not candy, but a very effective way of hair removal. Similar to waxing, sugarpaste removes unwanted body hair by quickly pulling the hair from the root. The adhesion comes from the sugar paste that is used instead of the hot resin when waxing. The paste consists of natural ingredients such as lemon, water and sugar. These ingredients are heated together until they reach a candy-like consistency, similar to the resin used for regular waxing.

How does sugaring work?

The sugar mixture is much more natural and environmentally friendly than regular wax. Sugaring may seem like waxing, but there is a crucial difference. With waxing, the direction in which the hair is pulled is the same as with waxing, and the strip is then removed in the opposite direction of hair growth.

With sugaring, however, it's the exact opposite. The cooled sugar paste is applied against the direction of hair growth and removed with quick, small pulls in the direction of hair growth. Sugar paste only adheres to the hair follicles and not to the skin. Resin does adhere to the skin, which can cause irritation if you have sensitive skin.

Sugar paste provides a light exfoliation. The paste adheres to the dead skin cells that sit on the skin's surface and removes them with the hair to reveal a smoother texture. When shaving, you use hair removal creams that leave the roots intact so that your hair grows back quickly with stubble. With waxing and sugaring, the hair, including the roots, is removed with wax and the hair stays away longer.

The Benefits Of Sugaring

Waxing works perfectly for both men and women. Resin can be applied to the legs, buttocks, arms, neck and face. Waxing is less suitable for sensitive skin and the alternative is sugar paste, which is very gentle on the skin. Sugar paste is a gentle, safe hair removal method to remove hair from all parts of the body. Sugaring is less painful and makes the skin soft while preventing allergic reactions and skin damage. Sugarpaste works perfectly for both men and women, and can be applied all over the body, even in sensitive areas. The sugar method is suitable for all skin types and skin problems.
