The Beauty Secret Virtually No One Knows About the sweetness of sugaring

The hunt for smooth, hairless skin without the razor burn,

ingrown hairs, and irritation is over!

Introducing Sugaring: an ancient hair removal method dating back thousands of years to the early Persian Empire. It requires a honey-like pliable paste that consists only of: • Sugar • Lemon Juice & Water

This sweet concoction originated as a luxurious beauty therapy performed on Cleopatra herself. Fit for an empress, the art of sugaring has a plethora of benefits.

Sugaring is 100% all natural, organic, and uses only eco friendly ingredients. Unlike wax, which includes harmful additives such as paraffin, alcohol, perfumes and dyes that irritate the skin, sugar paste is formulated with only three ingredients that are more gentle, effective and even biodegradable.

Sugaring is safe and effective for all skin types. It doesn’t need to be heated to the high temperatures as wax does. This means there is no risk of burning, swelling or lifting of live skin, where sugar paste only adheres to the hair and dead skin cells making it gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin.

So, how does sugaring achieve long lasting results? The formula is applied against the grain and removed in the direction of hair growth with the flick of a wrist. The sugar removes the hair shaft right from the bulb with no breakage or any part of the follicle left behind. This method reveals smooth skin without redness, a reduced chance of ingrown hairs, and bare skin for longer between appointments. And you won’t have to spend the rest of the day picking bits of wax off your skin or worrying about oily wax remover staining your clothes since the sugar paste is water soluble and wipes away easily with a warm towel.

But is it sanitary? Absolutely! Fresh sugar paste is withdrawn from the container each time. Most times, only one ball of paste is enough for the job. There is zero chance of contamination, double-dipping or reuse of anything that touches used sugar paste. Sugaring also leads to permanent hair removal. Each time you get sugared, the roots of hair follicles are detached from the pores, the follicle collapses and a new hair follicle begins reconstructing. Over time, as those follicles weaken, many will stop growing hair altogether. The longer you sugar on a monthly basis, the finer, and more sparse the hair growth will be.

So ditch the razor, wax, and toxic hair removal creams this summer, and experience a sweet alternative to healthy, hair-free, radiant skin! w
