Sugar Wax Recipes

You most probably agree with me that waxing not only hurts and quite expensive, it’s also can be irksome for those who are prone to redness, inflammation, and irritation. But what if I tell you that there’s a good alternative to traditional wax? Yup, and it’s sugar wax!

Sugar wax makes it possible to have smooth legs without spreading chemicals on the body because it is made with safe ingredients you already have at home.

Another awesome news about sugar waxing is that it’s so cheap, 100% natural, and you can do it anytime. A perfect hair removal solution!

Homemade sugaring wax makes a great option if you want extra savings. Thankfully, I have rounded up the best sugar wax recipes so you can ditch that traditional wax kits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is sugaring?

Sugaring similar to waxing is actually a method of hair removal. The name comes from the texture and ingredients itself, which consists of sugar, water, and lemon (or honey) that are then heated together until it reaches a caramel-like paste.

Is sugar wax safe for the face?

Yes, it is completely safe to apply wax on your face and works very well for bikinis and Brazilian. It’s made with natural ingredients which make it environmentally friendly and skin-friendly than wax. Sugar wax sticks to the hair rather than the skin, so it only removes hair.

How to apply wax correctly?

Whether you’re using wax with strips or stripless wax, always apply the cooled sugaring paste against the direction of hair growth and pull off the wax in the direction of hair growth with a quick, small pull.

What kind of powder can I use for sugaring?

Before sugaring, you can apply a light dusting of baby powder, cornstarch, baking soda, or powder for waxing and rub gently onto the skin. Powder helps to absorb any excess moisture on the skin and acts as a barrier helping the wax to grasp the hair better and stick less to the skin.

Do you need strips for sugar wax?

There are two different types of wax: hard wax and soft wax. Hard wax is better for smaller, sensitive areas. Where soft wax is better for larger areas.

With hard wax, you don’t need cotton strips to remove the hair. But if you prefer soft wax then it requires cotton strips or another soft disposable wax strip.

You can read this article from Healthline to know more about the pros and cons of soft wax and hard wax.

Is sugar wax painful?

It depends on your pain tolerance. If you have high pain tolerance, then sugaring might not be painful at all. But for some people, it can be painful. However, sugaring is considered less painful than the traditional wax because the mixture doesn’t adhere to the skin.

Which last longer sugaring or waxing?

Each session from both sugaring and waxing will last around 3 to 4 weeks. But it also depends on how fast your hair grows and how dark your hair is, and also how regular you do waxing.
