Shugaring in cartridges

Sugaring is one of the most common methods of dealing with unwanted hairs. It can be used both in the most delicate areas, for example, in the bikini area, and in more rough ones, for example, removing hair on the arms or legs.

Newfangled shugaring in cartridges is considered especially convenient. What is remarkable about it and how to make the epilation process the most enjoyable - read on.

From the name it becomes clear that sugar is used for the technique, placed in a small cartridge. Simply put, this is a mixture sealed in a case, which, when heated to a certain temperature (37-40 degrees), will be easily applied using the built-in applicator to your skin.

There are three types of sugaring paste in cartridges:

1. Soft. It is best used on fair skin where the hairs are barely visible. Such skin has increased sensitivity, and unnecessary irritation is completely useless to it.

2. Medium paste for shugaring. This is a universal tool. It suits many. The optimal length of hairs that need to be removed is from three to five millimeters. Areas that can be treated with such a paste include both the groin and legs.

3. Thick hard caramel. Usually this type is used to remove very thick and dense hairline.It can be suitable for men or for people of the southern type, where the hair is especially dense and has a very thick structure. Of course, after using it, some discomfort may occur, but otherwise it will be difficult to remove lush vegetation.

In fact, it is easy to prepare such a mixture yourself and at home. If you bought a cartridge once, do not throw it away after use. Leave the bottle, and add the mixture that you prepare yourself.

Pasta Recipe:

The main ingredients are sugar, water and lemon juice. Sugar will need no more than ten tablespoons, add water in a ratio of 1 to 10. Lemon will be enough and half.

Pour sugar into an iron container, pour in water and squeeze lemon juice. Turn on a small fire and, stirring constantly, bring the sugar to a completely liquid state. When the mixture has acquired a caramel color and a similar consistency, bring it to a boil and leave for 10 minutes. After that, let the solution cool naturally.

To understand that everything is cooked correctly, you need to pinch off a small piece from the total mass. If the substance does not stick to your hands and does not spread while you are trying to roll a ball out of it, everything is done correctly. If these signs were not found, reheat the mixture by adding more sugar. If you get a lollipop, then next time you need to add more water.

The only way to achieve the ideal solution is through trial and error.

For the first time, it is better to start the temperature and duration of heating from the minimum and check more often. Set the defrost mode and start gently melting the wax. Usually 30-60 seconds is enough. The optimum wax temperature for work does not exceed 40 degrees. The readiness of the pasta can be checked on your hand from the back. If you are comfortable, you can start applying, but more on that later.

You can use special waxes. They are of three types - can, cassette and combined. Accordingly, each of the types fits a certain container containing caramel for shugaring.

The use of wax is quite easy. You simply place a jar or cartridge in the hole, set the desired temperature and adjust the time. Periodically check if the paste is ready, and when the temperature is right, turn down the temperature control to the minimum setting and leave the cartridge inside to prepare the skin at this time.

A water bath is also suitable for heating. Put a container of water on the fire and put the cartridge in it. The flame must be small, the water must not be brought to a boil, otherwise the cartridge may melt.

Of course, with each new heating, the paste will become more and more rigid, eventually turning into amber. Under the influence of temperatures, water leaves the paste, which can soften the agent. When there is no moisture left, you will not be able to use the cartridge.That is why it is best to divide the original paste into parts if you know that you may not have time to treat the area or you simply do not need so much money.

Preliminary preparations before the actual shugaring operation:

1. Check temperature. Use your hand in exactly the same way as you check if the color of lipstick or foundation suits you.

2. Roll out the roller on a regular depilatory strip to achieve an even application. This strip can later be used to tear off the hairs.

3. If you are going to work with the armpit area, you can use an ice cube, to cool the skin and make it less susceptible to pain.

4. When working on the skin of the hands and feet, it is important to hold the cartridge at an angle of approximately 45-50 degrees. So the mixture will be applied evenly, without large gaps.

5. Be consistent as you make track after track.. The paste should be applied strictly against hair growth. Try not to stretch your skin while doing this.

6. If not all hairs are removed the first time, the paste can be reapplied. over a wide area or use strokes only for certain areas.
