FAQs
Is Sugar Coated suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, Sugar Coated is specifically formulated with natural ingredients and lavender essential oil to be gentle on sensitive skin, reducing irritation and redness often associated with hair removal.
How do I clean the reusable strips?
After each use, rinse the strips thoroughly under warm running water until all sugar residue is gone. Let them air dry completely before storing them for future use.
Can this product be used on areas other than the face?
Yes, Sugar Coated is suitable for all parts of the body, including legs, arms, underarms, and bikini areas.
What happens if I get wax on my clothes or surfaces?
Because the formula is completely water-soluble, any accidental spills or residue on clothing or surfaces can be easily cleaned with warm water.
How long does the 200g container last?
The longevity depends on the frequency of use and the areas being treated. For facial hair removal, the 200g kit with reusable strips is typically sufficient for multiple sessions.
Does this product contain any harsh chemicals?
No, the formulation is natural and vegan, made only from pure sugar syrup and water, without citric acid, resins, or other additives.
How should I store the sugar wax?
Store the sugar wax in its original container with the lid tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to maintain its consistency and prevent drying out.
Troubleshooting
Wax is too hard to apply
Gently warm the wax by kneading the container or placing it in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. Do not overheat.
Wax is too soft or sticky
Ensure the skin is clean and dry, and apply a light dusting of powder before application. Store the wax in a cooler environment.
Hair is not being removed effectively
Ensure you are applying the wax thinly and against the direction of hair growth. Make sure the strip is pulled off quickly and parallel to the skin, in the direction of hair growth.
Skin becomes excessively red or sore
You may be pulling the strip too slowly or not parallel to the skin. Ensure you are using a gentle application and pulling technique. Apply a cool compress after treatment.
Difficulty cleaning residue
Use plenty of warm water. The product is fully water-soluble, so it should dissolve easily with gentle rinsing.
