How to choose a medium-density sugar paste for sugaring?
In order to make shugaring without any unpleasant effects, you need to choose the right sugar paste. There are three types of it - dense, medium and soft. Each paste has its own function. One is for coarse hair, the other is for small areas.
Before starting the procedure, you need to take into account the conditions for its implementation, as well as your experience. Therefore, it is recommended to choose a universal paste for shugaring, namely a medium density paste, the features of the use of which we will consider in this article.

Peculiarities
Sugar paste for medium density shugaring is considered universal, because it can be used to remove hair from any part of the body - both on the arms and legs, and on more sensitive areas: in the bikini area, armpits. It differs from soft in that it easily removes coarse hair, and from dense hair in that it is easily applied to a large area of skin.
Medium-density depilatory paste can be used if the room is humid. At the same humidity, the soft sugar mass becomes more liquid, and the dense mass does not fix the hairline, which makes it impossible to use these pastes under such conditions.
The use of medium density sugar paste does not depend on body temperature. If soft is best used on cool skin, dense - on warmer, then a mass of medium density is ideal for any skin. On a warm one, it warms up moderately, on a cool one it does not freeze, retains its properties.
How to use?
The method of using medium-density shugaring paste at home is quite easy. Before use, the mass for depilation must be warmed up to 30-35 degrees. This can be done in the microwave. But more often than not, the average pasta does not even require warming up.
You can start working immediately after warming up. You need to be careful not to overheat the mass. Do not use hot paste, as this can lead to burns. If it is hot in the room, then you do not need to heat it, but only slightly knead it.
It is not necessary to knead for a long time, since the properties of the plastic mass are lost in this case.
Chlorhexidine can be used to treat the skin before the procedure; the areas of excessive sweating should be sprinkled with talcum powder. The prepared paste should be applied to the skin against hair growth, carefully distributing it over the entire surface. For better enveloping of each hair, the sugar mass can be applied in a thin layer several times. It should be applied easily, without rubbing it over the skin. If you feel discomfort, you should warm up the paste a little more in your hands, slightly kneading it.
Then, sharply pulling the sugar mass, tear it off the skin in the direction of hair growth. If a piece of mass is not very clogged with hair, it can be used again with subsequent depilation.
After that, the skin can be treated with chlorhexidine or thermal water again.
It is necessary to store the sugar paste for depilation in a dry place in a tightly closed container at temperatures up to 25 ° C, but not in the refrigerator.
