✨ How to Make Sugaring Paste at Home ✨
Sugaring paste is one of the oldest, all-natural hair removal methods in existence. If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to make it yourself—right from your own kitchen—you’re in the right place. As a master herbalist and organic skincare artisan, I’m sharing my tried-and-true recipe that you can trust. ๐
๐ฟ Ingredients
- 2 Cups Sugar – White, Cane, or Raw Sugar (see below for consistency differences)
- 18 tsp (3 oz) Lemon Juice – freshly squeezed preferred ๐
- 6 tsp (1 oz) Purified Water – bottled/distilled is best
✨ Sugar Consistency Tips:
- White Sugar: Softest texture
- Cane Sugar: Medium consistency
- Raw Sugar: Firmest – ideal for coarser hair
๐งช What You’ll Need
- Heavy Bottomed Aluminum Saucepan (avoid Teflon!)
- Metal Whisk (avoid silicone whisks)
- Candy Thermometer – target: 250°F / Hard Ball Stage
- Heat-Safe Glass Containers – I prefer mason jars ๐ซ
๐ง๐ณ Step-by-Step Directions
- Combine sugar, lemon juice, and water in the saucepan. Whisk to blend.
- Clip thermometer to side. Make sure the sensor is in the liquid, not above it.
- Turn burner to low–medium-low. Let it simmer slowly—patience is key.
- Continue whisking gently. Don’t leave unattended!
- The mixture will bubble and thicken. You’ll see it darken over time—watch for 250°F!
- Once it hits 250°F (hard ball stage), remove from heat immediately.
- Cool until pourable (~210°F). Carefully transfer to jars using a silicone spatula.
- Store at room temperature and use as needed.
