Ingredients

How to make it

  • Dust the area to be waxed, with cornstarch, it absorbs oil.
  • Combine the first three ingredients in a clean glass bowl, and microwave for 2-3 minutes.
  • Stop and stir your sugar mixture for 20-30 seconds.
  • Repeat as needed.
  • Let it cool to a comfortable warmth, and, using a wooden stick, spread a very thin layer onto your clean skin.
  • Immediately cover the mixture with a strip of cotton fabric.
  • Briskly stroke the strip several times in the direction of the hair growth, and then, pull the skin taut, and quickly rip away the cotton strip, against the direction of hair growth.
  • As you proceed, you may need to reheat your sugar mixture in the microwave to keep it warm.
  • *CAUTION* Do not boil it or overheat as you could easily burn your skin.

    This is what I use ^_^ its cleaner, cost-effective, and easily washes off.. but in general, I wouldn't suggest waxing eyebrows or upperlips.. actually, wouldn't suggest waxing anything on the face as (be it wax or sugaring) becasue on the long run it wouldn't be good to your skin. if you have any indian salon near your place, go for threading.. its much better for the face/upper lip/eyebrows :)
