Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Sugaring is the gentlest and most effective method of hair removal for sensitive skin and sensitive areas.

  • Works beautifully on bikini, Brazilian, underarms, and even the face.
  • Sugar wax only grips hair and dead skin, not live skin cells, making it less painful and more skin-friendly than traditional waxing.

Sugaring is less painful than traditional waxing, but you may feel some mild discomfort when the hair is removed.

  • Sugar paste only sticks to hair and dead skin, not live skin cells.
  • Most people describe the sensation as a quick sting rather than lasting pain.

Sugaring is a gentler, more natural alternative to waxing.

Hair should be at least 1/8 to 1/4 inch long (about the length of a grain of rice).

  • Too long and it can be more uncomfortable.
  • If hair is longer than 1/2 inch, trimming is recommended.

Smooth results typically last 3 to 4 weeks.

  • No harsh cleansers or oils needed.

No, sugar wax should not be reused once it has been applied.

  • Reusing paste can introduce bacteria and cause skin irritation.

  • Any leftover unused paste can be stored in an airtight container.

Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature.

A lot. Each lump can be reused 8–10 times, depending on size.

  • One lump removes the equivalent of 6–8 wax strips worth of hair.
  • A single jar can cover full body areas, including legs, arms, bikini, underarms, and face more than once.
  • Keep using the same lump until it softens and no longer grabs hair.

Easy enough for a 10-year-old, though most people need a few tries to master the flick.

  • If you are new, expect 2–3 practice runs before it feels natural.
  • Start with small areas like underarms before moving on to larger sections like legs.
  • The secret is in the quick, parallel flick (close to the skin, not upward).
  • Tutorial videos make it simple to follow step by step.

Small areas take just a few minutes, and larger areas may take longer. You only need to sugar every 4–6 weeks.

  • Upper lip, brows, or underarms: about 2–5 minutes.
  • Arms: about 10–15 minutes.
  • Full legs: can take up to an hour if you are new.
  • Time investment drops quickly once you master your technique.

You do not need them. The sugar holds together and can be reused multiple times.

  • Keep using the lump until it loses its grip and becomes pasty.
  • Once too soft, discard and start fresh.
  • Sugar is water-soluble, making cleanup quick and easy.

Warm it slightly. Body heat usually softens it, or use the
microwave for 5–10 seconds.

  • If room temperature is cool, the wax may firm up faster.
  • Let the lump sit on your skin for a few seconds to warm before spreading.
  • For stubbornly hard wax, warm the jar in the microwave for 5–10 seconds only.
  • Ideal room temperature for sugaring is 68–72°F (20–22°C).

Sugar naturally softens with heat from your skin. If it spreads too easily and stops holding, switch to a fresh lump.

  • Humidity or warm body temperature can make sugar soften quickly.
  • Store sugar in a cool, dry place.
  • If sweating, sugaring will be more difficult. Use Detox Dust to absorb moisture.
  • Sugaring in front of a fan can also help.

  • Especially important in humid climates.

Hair grows back finer and weaker with consistent sugaring, making removal easier.

  • With regular sugaring, follicles weaken and some stop producing hair altogether.

It depends on the area. Small areas need a marble-sized lump, larger areas need a golf ball.

  • Upper lip: marble-sized lump.
  • Legs: golf ball-sized lump.
  • Beginners should start smaller until they master the flick.
