Beauty salons today offer depilation service. But at home there is a good alternative - shigaring or epilation sugar. The procedure is very popular, since all the necessary ingredients have every hostess in the kitchen.
To begin with, it is worth mentioning that sugar epilation is not such a disease, like, for example, the use of wax. Suitable for the armpits, feet and bikini zones, with the problems of ingrown hairs. In the formula of the mixture used for epilation, there are no chemical additives, so after the procedure, irritation and redness of the skin are excluded. Sugaring is contraindicated, if there are wounds and damage on the cover, as well as with diabetes mellitus. The complexity of the preparation of a mixture for shugaring is that the recipe and technology is very accurate. Prepare for syrup: 4 tbsp. l. Water, 10 tbsp. l. sugar, half of the lemon (for sensitive skin, it is possible to use citric acid that does not cause irritation), a pot with a thick bottom. Often, a tincture of nuts is introduced into the composition of the syrup, which increases the efficiency of the destruction of hair follicle, and honey, due to its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. Send sugar, water and lemon juice to the container. Mix in the tank all the ingredients, then you can put a saucepan on fire. At first, for a few minutes, it is necessary to heat the syrup at high power, then we make the flame weak, reducing 2 times, and tomim minutes 10. Cover the saucepan with a lid, but do not forget to periodically stir the paste. It is enough to prevent three times: when sugar starts to melt when it reaches a liquid consistency when it starts bud. If not to stir, it can merge. When syrup boils, carefully monitor the transparent paste to acquire caramel shade, slightly darker of light beer, and a candy aroma. Control the process so that the mixture does not digest, otherwise it is not suitable for the procedure and after cooling it will be just a solid caramel!- High-quality paste must be militant, it rolls into a small ball.
- If the mass is solid, then add some water to it (1 tbsp), send to the steam bath, mix thoroughly when it melt, and let it cool.
- If the pasta spreads, it is necessary to slaughter some more.
- If syrup is too liquid, then, unfortunately, it is not suitable for epilation.
Thus, Shugaring allows at home to achieve perfectly smooth skin on the legs. Silky will be the bikini zone and armpits. But for the eyebrow area, such a procedure is strictly prohibited.
