Ingredients
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup water
Procedure
  • First of all, take a large vessel and pour the sugar granules in it followed by the lemon juice and water.
  • Boil the mixture on a high gas flame for a long time. And while doing so, get the vessel off the flame for few seconds after every 5 minutes. The mixture will slowly change from turbid to amber colored.
  • Keep boiling until you can smell the aroma of lemon juice. And most importantly, keep on stirring the mixture continuously so that a thicker consistency sugaring paste is formed.
  • After you feel the mixture is ready, take it off the flame and then pour it in an air tight jar. Spread it evenly and close the jar.
  • Now, wait for few hours until the mixture cools down and turns into almost a slab.
After knowing the sugar hair removal recipe, come the actual steps of body sugaring for hair removal.
  • When you have decided to wax, clean that particular part of your body, say for instance hand. Wash them properly and tab with a soft towel. You can apply talcum as well.
  • Next, open the air tight jar and remove a chunk of sugaring mixture with your hands. Okay, this might give a tough time however, do anything and remove it!
  • Next, when the chunk is in your hands, start spreading it on your palms evenly. It would be a bit hot but gradually it would come to normal temperature.
  • When the rectangular slice is ready, place it hard on the area wherein you want to wax, slightly flip one end and remove the chunk with a jerk in the direction of hair growth.
  • There you go; done! Now, fold the same chunk into half, spread it evenly on the palms again and apply on the next patch which you want to wax. Continue the process until the chunk becomes useless. Isn't it unlike the hot wax hair removal?
