Sugar Pits: me likey.

thingsthatmakemycoochiepop:

sooo I just “Sugared” my underarms and a little on the nether regions. I LOVE IT! it doesnt hurt nearly as much as waxing does and its fun to play with. I made it with…

  • 2 cups white sugar. (store brand)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice. (from a squeeze bottle)
  • 1/4 cup of water. (anywhere but a toilet)

At first I accidently put only 1 cup of sugar and it didnt look right so I quickly watched a youtube video and realized the problem, too much liquid not enough solid. I put it on high for about 2 minutes until it boiled (it turns clear at this point). Then i turned the stove down to low until it started to darken a bit (to an off white color). I stood there literally watching because i didnt want it to burn and when it got to an amber color i took it off the stove to let it cool for a few minutes. The consistency when you first take it off the stove will be like honey. Once it cooled for a little i poured it into a clean spaghetti jar. I let it sit for about 30 mins before using it. The cooler it got the thicker and darker it got. Once it was cool to my liking i started experimenting with wax strips and (idk what the other method is called soo im gonna call it) yanking. On my legs it did a really good job and left it nice and smooth. On my underarms, where ever i put the wax is where the hair came out, there were no strays. I even noticed that some of the hairs had the little white ball on the end. After the initial rip off it immediately stops hurting. On my “down stairs” it did a perfect job. Nice, smooth, and hairless.

this is the video i watched for the recipe: Sugar Wax Recipe.

this is what i watched for technique: Sugaring.
