What are the sugaring pastes and how to apply them?

Recently, such a procedure as shugaring has become popular. This method of removing unwanted body hair has proven to be effective and safe. An important role is played by the use of a certain type of shugaring paste, and there are quite a few of them. Let's consider what such products are, how they should be applied correctly.

Sugar paste for sugaring is used to depilate a specific area on the body. It usually has only three main ingredients, which include sugar, water, and lemon juice. Various additives can also be used. These are honey, starch and essential oils. The listed components are optional. They practically do not affect the results of depilation.

Sugar paste is an important ingredient in the sugaring procedure. It is she who is applied to the place where unwanted hairs grow. There are many varieties of such pastes, designed specifically for the sugaring procedure.

Sugaring pastes are liquid and soft, with medium and high density. Each type must be used according to a certain scheme. Let's take a closer look at the main characteristics of pastes that are used today to remove unwanted body hair.

Liquid pastes are not very popular and are not used very often for sugaring. The fact is that with the use of such formulations, the depilation process becomes noticeably more complicated. The procedure turns out to be rather "capricious". Most often, liquid pastes are used only by experienced craftsmen and only in salon conditions.

Externally, the liquid paste is very similar to ordinary honey. It is quite difficult for beginners to get used to working with such a roster. It is very viscous and has a pleasant shade.

Very popular types of pasta. Such mixtures are as delicate as possible, gentle, but not too liquid. Due to this, it is convenient to work with them. The soft paste is easy to knead in your hands. You can easily form small balls from it, which you can then apply to the skin.

Mild pastes are great for small areas of skin. It can be arms, legs, belly. Before using the product in question, it is usually slightly warmed in the palms of your hands.

No less popular varieties of sugaring pastes. Medium formulations are considered versatile. They are ideal for most areas of the body to be treated. A medium paste can be used to remove unwanted hair from the face to the thigh line and the legs themselves. A particularly well treated blend removes moderately coarse to fine hairs.

Today, many well-known brands produce high-quality medium-density sugaring pastes. Buyers can choose for themselves both simple and professional products with different compositions.

Dense sugaring pastes are also considered universal. They can be used without hindrance without using special strips. Hard varieties are suitable for almost any area.

We should also talk about especially dense hard pastes. Such options are completely unsuitable for those users whose limbs are always cold. It is not very convenient to work with such a composition, especially compared to medium or soft mixtures.

Shugaring paste must be selected carefully and deliberately. You should not grab the first composition that comes across from the shelf in the store. When choosing such cosmetic products, it is advisable to build on some important criteria.

• First of all, the buyer needs to consider the technique, in which he plans to implement a procedure to remove unnecessary hairs. If the solution is to be applied with a special spatula, then it should have a softer consistency. If we are talking about manual work, then it makes sense to use a paste, which has a denser structure.
• It is also important to consider body temperature. Those areas that are characterized by elevated temperatures require the use of pastes with a solid consistency.
• The temperature of the hands of the master is no less important. If your hands are hot, then it is advisable to use a denser composition of the depilatory paste. For cold hands, such formulations are completely unsuitable. This feature of the choice of paste must be taken into account in order not to encounter unnecessary difficulties during the procedure.
• We should not forget about the temperature that is kept in the room or office, where the procedure for removing unnecessary hair is planned. The higher the temperature readings, the more dense the paste should be in its consistency.
• Another important criterion is the stiffness of the hairs that are planned to be removed. If an area with a high level of hair stiffness is to be processed, then a composition with a dense structure is ideal here.

If the choice of the optimal paste for shugaring is made by a beginner, then the following features should be taken into account.

• You should not immediately spend money on very bulky cans of pastes from well-known brands. An expensive mass may simply not suit a particular person. Better to start your first experiments with simpler and more affordable products.
• Many firms produce pastes that are designed specifically for beginners. You can immediately buy 2 compositions with different densities, for example, hard and soft.
• Choose a paste that matches the hair removal technique you intend to use.

Sugar mixture for shugaring must be used correctly. This is not difficult. Let's consider the main features of the use of such mixtures.

• First you need to prepare the surface of the skin that will be processed with the paste. First, it is scrubbed. Due to this, keratinized particles will be removed, the hairs themselves will rise.
• Then the remains of the scrub are removed with cleansing lotions. You should not use water for this.
• Then talc is distributed on the skin. Thanks to it, the surface will become dry, due to which the sugar mixture will adhere better to the skin.
• After that, you can proceed directly to hair removal. For beginners, the bandage technique is the ideal solution. In this case, the paste is applied to the skin and then removed using special strips.
• There is also a manual technique.In accordance with it, the paste is spread over the surface of the skin by means of fingers. This procedure will seem simple for those girls who are familiar with the use of hot wax.

Many girls decide to save money on buying a ready-made sweet composition by cooking it at home. It is not difficult to prepare a suitable mixture for shugaring with your own hands.

Consider in detail a popular recipe for making a good pasta with the addition of citric acid:

• it will be necessary in 3 tbsp. l. water dissolve 6 tbsp. l. granulated sugar;
• the mixture must be put on the stove;
• when the syrup is almost ready, 1.5 tsp is added to it. citric acid;
• the composition is brought to acquire a golden hue with a light caramel aroma;
• until the end of the thickened and cooled mixture will be ready for use.

Of course, you can make homemade shugaring pasta without adding citric acid. Even if there is no lemon in the mixture, it will still be effective.
