what is sugaring?
VS.
Sugaring is...
Clean
It's a simple formula of water, sugar, & lemon juice.
No nasty, fake stuff here!
Skin-Friendly
It never removes live skin cells & is almost pain-free!
It's an amazing alternative for sensitive skin.
Earth-Friendly
Sugaring produces far less waste than shaving and waxing!
The Original
Sugaring has been around for ages! Even the ancient Egyptians used it. Take Cleopatra's word for it - sugaring is the way to go!
It's time to leave waxing in the past!
Take a look at how sugaring compares to waxing and then try it for yourself!
SUGARING
-
Used at a comfortably warm temperature with zero burn risk.
-
Does not damage or remove live skin cells, thereby reducing pain & irritation.
-
Hair is removed with the natural direction of growth which reduces in-grown hairs & causes less pain making it ideal for sensitive skin!
-
Made from clean, all-natural, vegan-friendly ingredients. Additionally, the products I use are organic & made in the USA.
-
More eco-friendly & generates less waste than waxing since no sticks or strips are involved.
-
Sugar paste is biodegradable & water-soluble (easier clean-up!).
-
Skin feels smooth, calm, and far less irritated than waxed skin. Redness dissipates quickly.
BOTH
-
Removes the entire hair, including the root meaning you have long-lasting smoothness - 2-4 weeks.
-
Costs about the same.
-
Leads to softer, finer regrowth. Regular treatments can lead to permanency.
-
Much more time-efficient than shaving!
WAXING
-
Heated to high temperatures & can burn on contact.
-
Soft wax adheres to live cells on the skin's surface & pulls them off with the hair. Ouch!
-
Hair is removed against the direction of growth. Often, hairs break inside the follicle, causing in-growns & permanent follicle distortion.
-
Contains beeswax, synthetic dyes, pore-clogging resins, soy derivatives, & other irritants.
-
Uses lots of single-use items such as wooden sticks & muslin strips which generates more waste.
-
Extremely difficult to clean up and will ruin clothing.
-
Leaves skin feeling raw, sticky & irritated. Irritation can last for hours!
