SUGARING PASTE – HARD 1.3kg 45Oz FOR TOUGHEST HAIR (BIKINI, BRAZILIAN, UNDERARMS)

Exfoliate a day or two prior!!! If you get major ingrown hairs and have horrible dragon skin like I do, this will drastically improve your experience. I made sure to watch every video possible and took the main tip of taking the room/body temperature into major consideration. It's 106 degrees in Texas, most homes are around 78-85 degrees internally so I veto'd heating up the wax prior to use.I showered first, thoroughly dried off. Wipe down my legs using witch hazel and used a wooden tongue depressor to scoop out the wax. It was firm but pliable to the touch, a bit stringy so make sure you're not anywhere it would matter if you got a little sticky stuff on it (comes off real easy, even off of the rug! lol).I will say learning the technique was fun but it does require a lot of practice due to the temperature being a major factor so you really gotta get in tune with that. I found using the tongue depressor or a card worked best for me when it came to the lifting technique. Application, I switched between the tongue depressor or my hands, kinda just depended on the surface area coverage I was going for.I practiced on my legs before moving to my bikini area, I still think about the review on how the woman glued her legs together. This was definitely a application and temperature issue. I highly recommend using very small amounts (I would use an amount that was about the size of a marble?), you don't need a lot at all especially when you are learning still. I definitely flicked some folded ribbons of sugar everywhere at times, they said to flick like you mean it and it should fold on itself so you know you're fulling parallel to the skin.Choosing between Hard or Medium wax, again, taking in the temps of Texas I went for the Hard wax. I think it offers more versatility due to the environment. A few hairs were missed, due to either technique/hair length/hair thinness but 1 out of who knows how many I'll take it! My hair grows in really sparse and thin on my legs, I don't even shave knee up because you can't tell I even have hair (Asian genes). My husband pointed out it was probably fun for me because it didn't hurt due to the lack of density of hair most people experience. None the less, I did attempt my bikini area which I have had professionally sugar'd once (which hurt like no other) but when I did it (2nd time ever sugar'd), it was less awful? But they say after the first surgaring will always hurt less so there is some truth to that.Aftercare is super important, I used a mixture of oils that are light and non-pore clogging to help alleviate the areas. Woke up baby smooth and no issues!

I'm about to order my 4th jar!!! It works great and lasts me about 6 mths. No more bumps or ingrowns. If it's too sticky/warm place it in the refrigerator or freezer. Too hard? Microwave it for a few seconds. I got some wax strips that has made it much easier to use. Put on the product, then smooth over with the strip, it makes for an easier pull.

This is my second time using this product. Please note. The instruction video is not recommended for heating directions. Use the heating directions on top of the container lid. This is my second time buying this product because I overheated it and it didn't work the first time.That said, the second time, it took time. Like two hours to do an intimate area. So, yes, there is a learning curve with this. It will hurt, shaving is way more painfree, but you are going to have some pain from literally using sugar paste to yank at hair.You will also want to trim hair if it's greater than an inch. Especially in the arm pits. It's very painful otherwise. Look up videos on the flicking method, and be prepared to practice.Also, you want to use baby powder (or corn starch) to make sure the area is free of moisture. It makes the sugar paste stick to the skin less and overall leads to it being less painful. Apply as liberally. You can reuse the ball of paste, but once it no longer sticks discard it.And unlike wax, the clean up is so much easier. Just warm water and it will dissolve away.

Perfect consistency

I’ve been making/cooking my own wax for about 6 months and if you don’t get the temp, cook time, and ingredients perfect it does not come out right. It can be very frustrating. So I decided to give this a try. This is the first wax I’ve purchased and it will be the last wax I ever purchase! It got all the hairs and was so easy to work with! If you’re having trouble with this wax working for you, it’s your technique not the product! Can’t recommend it enough!

This was NOT EASY and not pleasant when you use it. I have been sugaring and I thought this was an ok price and when I used it, it left me with rashes and felt like it was so painful, I couldnt finish it.

I have a back injury and it was very hard to keep up with shaving so I decided to try sugaring. I have sensitive skin and coarse hair so I grabbed the Hard paste. The first part I sugared was my legs, it hurt as you're ripping out your hair, but it hurt MUCH less than I thought it would! It was easy to learn, I watched many tutorials before it came. It certainly saves money with all the product you get, and it saves me from additional back pain! Since I've never had my legs waxed I imagine the growth will be different at first but the first time lasted me almost three weeks! The only time I've been waxed at the salon was my Brazilian, with sugar wax and strips. My skin was enflamed for days and it was painful, but not with this! It was PAINLESS, I swear! NO redness or swelling! This stuff is GREAT, a nice choice for anyone who is tired of shaving and getting that awful razor burn. It exfoliates and leaves your skin looking beautiful! Try it!
