That's it! That picture shows everything you will find in Sugar used to remove hair! Lemon (citric acid), Sugar, and Water!

Anybody that knows me is very aware of how obsessively conscious I am about eliminating any unnecessary toxins from my environment, food, and products.

Liv Beautiful Sugaring uses ONLY all natural products. And they are made right here in Alberta. We are also VERY conscious about supporting our local economy.

Did you know....The average woman puts 515 synthetic chemicals on her body every day.....WITHOUT KNOWING! Always make informed conscious decisions when it comes to your health. Read about it here: https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/synthetic-chemicals-skincare_n_56d8ad09e4b0000de403d995

A few facts about Sugar!

Sugar can extract very short hairs:
The ball in hand method can extract hair that is only 1/16th to 1/8 inch long. This means that hair is more likely to be removed in the Anagen stage and can lead to more permanent results.

Sugar never dries: Wax must be removed immediately or it can dry on the skin. Leaving sugar on the skin helps it to pe*****te the follicle of the shortest hairs.

Sugar breaks fewer hairs: As the sugar molds onto the skin against the natural hair growth, it seeps into the follicle to help lubricate the hair shaft and bulb and facilitate hair removal. Because hair is removed in the natural direction of growth without stretching the hair backward and possibly breaking it, it removes the hair and root bulb intact.

Sugar is applied at room temperature: No risk of burning!

We are bombarded with chemicals in so many of the products we use and food we eat. I am proud of the fact that I only offer services using all natural and organic products. Have you been sugared yet?

After Sugar Hair Removal

Things to avoid for the first 24 hours after sugar hair removal:

· Perfumes

· Scented creams/lotions

· Deodorant if you had your underarms sugared

· Heat, such as baths/steam rooms

· Direct sunlight or tanning beds

· Perspiration. Let this be your excuse to skip going to the gym!

Exfoliation is the key to preventing ingrown hairs. Using a natural bristle body brush, exfoliating cloth or brush, or body scrub two to three times per week you’ll keep dead skin cells from trapping new hair growth under your skin.

The second step is to keep your skin healthy and moisturized. A good rule of thumb is, whenever your skin gets wet (after every shower or bath) moisturize with a natural lotion.

Slight irritation with redness and bumps is completely normal and should disappear within 24 hours.

Pre-Treatment: Things you can do before your Sugar Hair Removal treatment.

* Clients should come with skin as clean as possible.
* Men having the back should shower and wear a clean t-shirt to appointment.
* Brazilian clients should use facilities before to cleanse the area to be sugared. There is always moist wipes available in the treatment room.
* No working out, sunbathing, or tanning the day of treatment as the sweat harbors bacteria.
* No spray tanning or lotion the day of treatment.

Next information post will be entirely about post-treatment and what not to do after your Sugaring!

Before Your Sugar Appointment

Sugar paste is safe for all skin types, even the most sensitive! Since the sugar never adheres to live skin cells, only the dead cells will be removed acting as a gentle exfoliation, which is why we ask that you do not exfoliate your skin the day before or day of your service.

It is important to show up to your appointment with skin that is clean of all lotions, oils and makeup. These can coat the skin and the hair and act as a barrier, making it difficult to remove the hair.

For best results hair should be approximately ¼ inch. If hair is longer it should be trimmed with an electric trimmer prior to arriving for your appointment. Can be trimmed at appointment.

And again! Another option for EXFOLIATION! It is a key factor in preventing ingrown hairs!

When you are sugaring you should be exfoliating 3 to 4 times per week to prevent ingrown hairs. It is important to slough away the dead and toughened skin cells to allow weaker hairs to come through.

Some ideas for exfoliating are:
* An exfoliating glove
* Dry brushing
* Sugar Betty Sweet & Salty Scrub or Sugar Scrub
* Sugar Betty Deep Sea Salt Natural Soap

In this post, let's look at the Sugar Betty's Sugar Scrub!

SUGAR SCRUB is not just an exfoliator! A combination of ingredients your skin will love, with the addition of organic cane sugar, creates a moisturizing scrub that exfoliates and polishes, while replenishing moisture and condition to all skin types. For skin that is ooooooh, sooooo touchable!!

Residual sugar and exfoliated skin cells rinse away, leaving a trace of moisturizers and conditioners over fresh, silky smooth skin. Follow with SUGAR BALM to seal and protect.

RE-HYDRATION! Another key factor in preventing ingrown hairs!

A few facts about Body Sugaring!

Sugar is 100% pure and natural:
Our sugar paste contains only sugar, water, and lemon juice. No chemical additives, resins or binding agents added which can cause allergic reactions or irritations.

Sugar only adheres to dead skin cells and hair:
It will not remove any live skin cells so it is much gentler than wax and any redness disappears significantly quicker. It provides a gentle exfoliation with the hair removal.

Sugar is more sanitary:
Sugar cannot harbor bacteria or encourage the growth of bacteria. Did you know that in world war 2 table sugar was used to pack wounds to help slow the growth of bacteria! There is no opportunity for cross contamination in the sugar room as the service is completed with the same ball of sugar. No sticks and no double dipping!

Water Soluble! Quick and easy cleanup with water.

Why Sugar Instead of Wax?

Waxing is a popular & easily accessible method for body hair removal……….but once you try sugaring we bet you never go back to waxing!!!

Sugaring uses only natural ingredients. The preparation is 100% natural, contains water and sugar, with no chemical, fragrance or coloring. It is hypoallergenic, and causes no skin irritation.

It is so natural that it is even edible!

Wax is made of resins and often toxic chemicals as well. These ingredients are often irritating, if not toxic, to the skin. Sugaring paste is applied at body temperature & will not burn your skin. Hot wax must be heated to a high degree in order to become liquified which can cause burning & scarring.

Sugar paste can be cleaned up easily with water. You will never leave a Sugaring treatment feeling sticky. Since wax contains resins, chemical solvents are required to remove its residues.

Sugar cannot adhere to live skin cells. This means less discomfort for you & less trauma to your skin. Sugaring does remove dead skin cells – so as the hair is removed your skin is also getting exfoliated!

Wax has been known to remove more than just the hair, since it can adhere directly to live skin cells, which makes waxing more painful & irritating. Wax cannot be applied to an area more than twice at the most.

Sugaring Paste is hypoallergenic & non-comedogenic. Sugar naturally helps control cross contamination & bacteria cannot breed in the tub of sugar. Cross contamination in a waxing room is always a danger, especially since bacteria will breed inside a tub of wax
Using the Advanced Sugaring Technique the paste wraps around the hair making it pliable. The hair is removed out of the follicle only in the natural direction of growth, which helps to extract the hair intact.

One of the most common problems waxers face is early regrowth due to broken hairs. Waxing can leave 15% – 30% breakage behind. Since wax hardens on the hair, it has the tendency to break it off at the surface, rather than pull it out.

The Advanced Sugaring Technique requires less than 1/8 inch of hair (or 5 – 7 days growth after shaving) for successful extraction. Wax products require that you grow the hair out at least 1/3 inch before your next waxing. (or 2 – 3 weeks growth after shaving).
