Most at home waxing kits come in strips, but this isn’t the only way that you can wax your skin at home. If you decide against using waxing strips, you might instead choose a sugar waxing recipe. After waxing strips, these are definitely the most popular way of waxing, so let’s take a look at how you would make sugar wax.
It is really easy to make sugar wax, all you need is sugar, salt, lemon juice, and water. So, if you haven’t got any waxing strips in the house, you probably will have the ingredients required to make sugar wax. You need to begin the recipe by setting your stove to a medium heat, and adding the sugar and salt into the pan. You can then add the lemon juice and water to the pan too.
Then, all you need to do is stand by the pan and continually stir the mixture as it melts and combines. The stirring process is very important, so ensure that you stay by your pan. Eventually, you will find that the mixture begins to go yellow and bubble. Keep mixing until the entire mixture has turned golden yellow, then remove from the heat.
You should then add a thin layer of water to a container, and pour the mixture in on top. Keep stirring until a thick, wax-like mixture has formed in the center of the container. This is your sugar wax, and you can apply it to your skin in the same way that you would any other wax.
