Sugar paste can be used on any skin type, even very sensitive skin. As sugar only adheres to hair and not living skin cells, only dead skin cells will be removed, resulting in gentle exfoliation. As a result, we ask you not to exfoliate the area to be sugared for one to two days prior to your appointment. Additionally, you should avoid using creams or lotions on the day of your appointment. Sugared areas should be exfoliated and moisturized between appointments, though please do not exfoliate 24-48 hours before your appointment. Take Tylenol or Motrin 30 minutes prior to your appointment if you are concerned about discomfort.
