Good evening my dear people 😊
In this post, I will share with you a recipe on how to do your own sugar paste in the comfort of your own home!
It takes time to do that on your own, but I'm pretty satisfied and I know I will get better with time.
What you will need:
Two cups of sugar
Lemon juice (half a lemon)
Water (less than 1 dcl)
One teaspoon of salt
You can make it in a frying pan or in some bowl. I was making it in a pan.
Let us begin
When you put all the ingredients in a pan, it is important to mix it all the time. That's basically what you do until the paste is done, which takes about 15 minutes.
It will look like this in the beginning:
As the time goes by, the paste will change its color and structure:
When you think you are done cooking, you need to put the sugar paste in some dish that has a high tolerance for the heat and soak it with a drop of water.
This is literally how much water you need:
When you think you are done, it is supposed to look like this:
After that, you need to pull the edges towards the middle to cool and thicken the paste:
When the paste is cool and thick, the next step is to make a "ball" out of paste and strech it out with your fingers. Before you start doing that, slightly soak your fingers and occasionally repeat it. You should be doing this until the paste becomes smooth and golden.
When you are done with that, your paste is ready for use!
The way of use
- Apply the paste against the hair growth;
- Gently press the paste with your fingers 2-3 times &
- Pull the paste in the direction of the hair growth.
