Smooth Moves SUGAR WAX NATURAL HAIR REMOVAL
Sugar wax has been used as a natural hair remover for years and you can whip up your own sugar wax at home using:
1 cup sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/4 cup water
Method:
Add the ingredients to a saucepan on the stove, and stir to combine. Begin to heat, slowly bringing the mixture to a boil. Once it boils, simmer the ingredients on a low-medium temperature, stirring frequently. Once the mixture has turned golden brown in colour, it’s time to remove the pan.
Pour the ingredients into a jar and leave to cool for around 30 minutes.
Spoon some wax into your hands, and roll it into a ball. Make sure the area of skin you want to remove hair from is clean and dry, then begin to spread the wax over it. Let it sit for a minute, then lift a corner of the sugar wax (enough to give you a good grip). Get ready...and rip the wax off in the opposite direction of your hair growth.
Post-waxing, clean the area with warm water to remove any residue.
