Overview of the assortment of pastes

Dense
This type of paste is designed to care for sensitive skin and remove coarse, coarse hair. The dense structure is ideal for epilation in the bikini area and underarms. It is considered universal, since it does not require the use of special gloves, does not depend on the humidity and air temperature in the room. The dense paste can be used both in beauty salons and at home.
The main advantage of the product is its ease of use - you just need to knead the composition in your hands until you get an elastic structure. (can be slightly warmed up in the microwave or in a water bath) and apply to the desired areas.
Average
This sugar paste is considered versatile, as it is suitable for performing sugaring on any part of the body, but it is best used for skin care in the armpits, legs and arms. The product has a structure reminiscent of jelly and is applied to the skin by hand.
The main feature of the medium paste is that it does not react to high humidity in the room, does not spread in the hands and does not melt from body temperature.
Soft
This type of paste has a dense consistency and it is recommended to use it only for the removal of light and fine hair. Best of all, this tool is suitable for blondes whose skin is very sensitive and delicate. Soft paste is difficult for beginners to use as it spreads. To depilate with a product, you must additionally use tissue or paper strips.
Ultra soft
This type of sugar paste is characterized by a not too viscous and thick consistency. In appearance, it bears a resemblance to honey. Before applying the product to the problem area, it should be slightly warmed up until a structure resembling a thick syrup is obtained.
Ultra-soft paste is designed for depilation on especially sensitive areas of the body (on the back, arms, face), with the help of it you can quickly and easily remove vellus, light and fine hairs. As for the owners of hard and dark hair, this type of product will not work for them. Most often, this product is used in beauty salons, since it is quite difficult to cope with it at home.
Bandage

The bandage paste has the property of deep penetration, therefore it allows you to effectively remove hairs of any stiffness, thickness and length. After using this tool, the rapid growth of new hair and the appearance of inflammatory reactions are excluded.
How to choose?
Since the GLORIA brand pastes are presented on the market in a huge assortment, it is difficult for novice craftsmen to make a choice in favor of one or another product. Before purchasing this depilatory product, you need to study its composition, purpose, as well as the method of application to the skin. In addition, the choice of paste depends on the characteristics of the hair structure, hand temperature and humidity in the room. To carry out the procedure at home, it is best to purchase a paste with a manual application technique. If you have experience in using the product, then you can choose a paste that is applied with a spatula or using bandages.
Before buying GLORIA paste, you also need to decide on the area that needs to be "cleaned" of vegetation - it will be an area of skin with a complex relief (bikini area and armpits) or a flat surface.
It is also important to know which hairs are planned to be removed - thick, hard or soft and thin.
For flat and large areas, it is recommended to choose a soft paste that can be used in a cool room to remove fine hairs. It is also ideal for those who are accustomed to “working” with gloves or have naturally cold hands. For shugaring any type of hairs from 2 to 5 mm in length, a bandage paste will be an excellent choice. It is recommended to “cleanse” difficult areas of the body with GLORIA paste of medium thickness.
If it is difficult to make a choice due to the fact that it is not known where depilation will be performed, then a universal paste will be the best choice. It does not depend on the level of humidity and temperature conditions in the room, it can be used without warming up.
Some women do not know which is the best paste to buy - in a cartridge or in a jar. In order to correctly determine the type of packaging for the product, you need to know in advance what kind of shugaring technique you plan to use. Sugar paste in cartridges is designed specifically for the banding technique of applying the composition. It heats up quickly and is applied with a roller to the skin in a thin layer, after which it is removed with paper strips.
It is recommended to buy a means for shugaring in jars for manual techniques. It is considered the most affordable and economical, since, on average, one procedure requires a walnut-sized amount of paste. One such jar is enough for a long time.
How to use?
Each package of GLORIA sugar paste contains instructions for use, so you can use it yourself at home and not waste time going to a beauty salon. To get the effect of shugaring, the skin must be carefully prepared before applying the sugar composition. To do this, wash it with warm water, degrease it with a special agent and dry it. You can then proceed with the procedure using one of the following methods.
Manual technique
For shugaring, you need a paste of dense or medium consistency. The hard composition must be kneaded in your hands before starting the procedure, separating a small piece. When the paste acquires a plastic state, it must be rolled into a ball, applied to the skin and gently rolled into a strip. After a few seconds, the composition is removed with a sharp movement.
A medium-density paste, which has a jelly consistency, must be slightly warmed up before depilation and then in a thin layer, evenly spreading it with your hands, apply to the skin. This type of paste dries quickly, so as soon as it sets, it can be easily removed with adhered hair.
Bandage technique
For depilation using this method, you can use the soft or ultra soft GLORIA paste, which must be warmed up in advance. The thick, viscous mass is evenly distributed against hair growth with a spatula. Then, on top of the product, you need to apply bandage strips and wait a few seconds, then rip them off with a sharp movement. Since the viscous composition of the paste adheres well to the hairs, they are removed quickly and painlessly along with the root.
Shugaring ends with rinsing off the remnants of the paste. Additionally, the skin should be treated with a cream or lotion that has a moisturizing and soothing effect. Thanks to this, it will be possible to avoid irritation and redness in the area where the depilation was performed.
If you regularly carry out shugaring with GLORIA sugar paste, the number of hairs will significantly decrease, and the effect of perfect skin will remain for a long time.
