Getting waxed at a salon can be expensive! You can make sugar wax with 3 simple ingredients and do your own waxing at home. All you need is granulated white sugar, lemon juice, and water. Sugar wax is also less painful than traditional hot wax, making it a great option for those with sensitive skin.
Ingredients
1 cup (200 g) granulated white sugar
1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice (preferably bottled)
2 cups (480 ml) warm water
Part One of Two:
Mixing the Wax
1
Place a medium-sized pot on the stove. Even though this recipe makes a fairly small batch of sugar wax (approximately enough for 2 legs), use a medium or large pot to make it. The mixture starts to bubble when you heat it, and it can overflow if you use a small pot.
2
Add the white sugar, lemon juice, and warm water to the pot. Measure out the granulated white sugar and dump it into the pot. Then add the lemon juice and warm water. Stir to combine them.[1]
Use white or brown granulated sugar. Powdered sugar won't work at all.
3
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Turn your burner on high and let the mixture heat up until it starts to boil. Stir frequently. Keep an eye on the mixture, since it will start to bubble as it heats up.[2]
Take care not to burn the mixture. If you do, it will completely solidify once it cools down, making it unusable# header
