How to use the firm sugaring paste

Underarm Sugaring

Leg Sugaring

Arm Sugaring

Step 1

Cleanse and Dry the Area: Wash and dry the skin thoroughly to remove dirt, oil, and residue. Ensure the skin is completely dry, as moisture prevents the sugar paste from adhering. For sweaty areas (underarms, bikini) or warm climates, apply a light layer of body powder to absorb excess moisture.

Step 2

Apply the paste: Spread a layer of firm sugar paste against hair growth using your fingertips. Pass 2-3 times to lift hairs so the sugar grips them at the roots. You can also use a spatula or tool. For areas like armpits, check hair growth direction to ensure full coverage.

Step 3

Remove the paste: Using your fingers, flick the sugar paste off quickly in the direction of hair growth, keeping the motion parallel to the skin—don’t lift up.

Tip: Hold the skin taut with your free hand to minimize discomfort and ensure a clean removal.

Step 4

Repeat Until Paste Is Saturated: Continue flicking off the sugar paste and reapplying as needed. Once the paste becomes too full of hairs or too sticky, discard it and start with a fresh piece for best results.

Step 5

Apply a soothing lotion to calm and hydrate your skin without alcohol or fragrances. We love Coconut oil and pure aloe vera gel.

TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS

SUGAR IS TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE: SUGAR PASTE CAN BECOME HARDER IN COLD TEMPERATURES AND SOFTER IN WARM TEMPERATURES.
ADJUST ACCORDINGLY: IF THE PASTE IS TOO HARD, WARM IT SLIGHTLY BETWEEN YOUR PALMS. IF IT'S TOO SOFT, STORE IT IN THE REFRIGERATOR FOR A SHORT TIME.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PASTE TOO FULL OF HAIR: IF THE PASTE BECOMES SATURATED WITH HAIR, IT MAY LOSE ITS EFFECTIVENESS. TAKE A FRESH PIECE OF PASTE AND START AGAIN.
PASTE TOO STICKY: IF THE PASTE IS EXCESSIVELY STICKY, ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF BODY POWDER TO MAKE IT MORE MANAGEABLE.
IN BOTH CASES, YOU CAN ALSO REMOVE THE PASTE USING A STRIP AND START WITH A FRESH PIECE OF SUGAR PASTE.

TIPS

START SMALL: BEGIN WITH A SMALL AREA TO GET COMFORTABLE WITH THE TECHNIQUE.
BE GENTLE: AVOID PULLING THE PASTE UP OR OUT; FLICK IT PARALLEL TO THE SKIN.
USE A CLOTH STRIP (OPTIONAL): IF YOU FIND THE PASTE DIFFICULT TO GRIP, USE A CLOTH STRIP TO AID IN REMOVAL.
SOOTHE SKIN: AFTER SUGARING, APPLY A SOOTHING LOTION OR ALOE VERA GEL TO REDUCE REDNESS.
