DIY Sugar Wax is easier to make than you may think! With only 3 ingredients and little time over the stove, you can get a hairless body with ease and using natural ingredients you probably already have at home
I choose sugar wax over hard wax any day. Especially for a beginner, you are less likely to hurt yourself or rip any skin off using this soft sugar wax then the others. So if you are up for this DIY challenge, lets get into the recipe…
Equipment & Ingredients
To make this DIY sugar wax you will need these ingredients:
- White Granulated Sugar
- Lemon Juice
- Water
As for the equipment, this is all you will need:
- Saucepan
- Jar
Once you have completed making your DIY sugar wax be sure to let this cool for at least 2 hours. You can use this slightly warm, but you want the mixture to thicken while setting and become the right consistency to easily remove hair.
The beauty in this recipe, is when you store this wax, you can always reheat in the microwave for about 10 seconds until warm and sticky again, and use on your body for the next armpit or bikini wax.
Be sure to share this DIY sugar wax recipe with your family and friends or even make a large batch to give someone as a homemade self care gift. Let me know how it came out for you in the comments 🙂
