Sugar waxing at home

Sugaring hair removal recipe: 2 cups white cane sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/4 cup water The juice from two lemons gave me 1/4 cup, but be sure to strain it to rid any pulp or seeds. You could probably use lemon juice concentrate as well. Mix ingredients in a heavy sauce pan over a medium-high heat. Stir the mixture often so that it doesn't overheat at the bottom. This recipe can be used for both face and body sugaring. Many people are turning to this hair removal method because it's more gentle to the skin and less painful than waxing. After it comes to a boil, turn the heat down to low-medium and simmer for 25 minutes. This length of time is needed to get the final product just right. If it's not cooked long enough, the end sugar hair removal product will be too sticky to work with. After 25 minutes of simmering, the sugar hair removal result should be a dark amber color. Remove it from the heat and let it cool for about ten minutes .
