Natural Sugar Wax Instructions

Sugar wax is a natural exfoliant and has been used for hundreds of years for the safe removal of hair. With consistent use, most people see a reduction in growth/ ingrown hair and thinning of hair. It is far gentler and environmentally friendly than regular wax. Compared to shaving sugar wax is more cost-effective, longer lasting and gentler on the skin.

Instructions:

There are 3 methods of using our wax

A: Ball method

  • Prep the skin with powder, ie: corn starch/baby powder
  • Using a spoon remove about a tablespoon of sugar wax from the jar
  • Begin kneading your wax by stretching it out and putting it back together, continue until the wax is a slightly opaque
    • Lightly wet your hands with cool water if the wax begins to get sticky
  • Once the wax is a dough-like consistency it is ready to be used
  • Apply the wax to the unwanted hair in the opposite direction of the hair growth
    • Only cover about 2-3 inches of your skin at a time
  • Pull the wax off in a quick swift motion following the direction of the hair growth, in other words, the opposite direction that you put it on
  • Roll the wax back into a ball and repeat 

B: Stick method

  • Prep the skin with powder, ie: corn starch/baby powder
  • Microwave your sugar wax for about 10-15 seconds, without the lid
  • Using your desired applicator scoop out about a teaspoon of wax out of the jar
  • Apply the wax to the unwanted hair in the opposite direction of the hair growth
    • Only cover about 2-3 inches of your skin at a time
  • With the stick still attached to the wax pull away following the direction of the hair growth, in other words, the opposite direction that you put it
  • With the wax still on the stick repeat the above steps

C: Stick & strip method (best for beginners) 

  • Prep the skin with powder, ie: corn starch/baby powder
  • Microwave your sugar wax for about 10-15 seconds, without the lid
  • Using your desired applicator scoop out about a teaspoon of wax out of the jar
  • Apply a thin layer of the wax to the unwanted hair in the opposite direction of the hair growth
  • Place the reusable wax strip on top of the wax and rub with your hand for 3-5 seconds
  • Pull the strip off in the direction of the hair growth
  • Repeat the above steps using the same strip for as long you desire
    • Strips can be rinsed with lukewarm water to remove wax, dried and used indefinitely

Please note

  • Going over the same area multiple times often results in irritation, 2-3 times max is recommended
  • Works best when hair is about as long as a grain of rice / ¼ of an inch
  • If the wax feels too sticky to work with, feel free to sit the jar in the fridge for 5-10 minutes
  • Our sugar wax is water-soluble, making it easy to remove from any surface if things get messy ;)
