Shugaring Aravia
Any well-groomed woman knows that beauty - This is primarily skin care and the complete absence of body hair. Even in ancient Persia and Greece, any vegetation was considered indecent. And the first attempts to remove hair with a thick sugar mixture were noted in ancient Egypt, which today is officially considered the birthplace of “sweet” hair removal.
This ancient cosmetological process is called shugaring from the word “sugar”, which translated from English means “sugar”.
At this time there are many ways to get rid of hair, but this method has a high result and the absence of complications. And most importantly - this method can be used at home, because the shugaring paste is easy to prepare yourself. To do this, mix sugar, water with lemon juice or acid and cook for a long time over low heat. However, such a product does not always meet the objectives and requires a certain skill and extra time.
It is much more convenient to use a ready-made tool that has a greater ability to interlock with hairs. Fortunately, a wide range of professional cosmetics for hair removal is now on sale. According to the reviews, Aravia brand products enjoy special success.

Description
Thanks to scientific research, cosmetologists were able to reveal a unique texture. It is perfect for salon and self shugaring. The main material for such hair removal is a sugar caramel (Sugar Paste). It should not be very viscous, otherwise the mass will stick to the hands, but at the same time moderately plastic, so that the paste can be easily applied and rolled over the surface of the skin.
The color of the cosmetic product depends on the original ingredients and ranges from light brown to dark honey. Caramel softens and removes the hairs together with horny particles of the epidermis, giving the skin smoothness and delicate velvety.
The main advantages of sweet paste are completely natural composition, enriched with vitamins and essential oils, as well as the hypothermicity of the product, since it is heated to the temperature of the hands and it is impossible for them to burn.
Choosing the right caramel is a crucial moment in preparation for the procedure. It is determined by several criteria: the shugaring technique, the temperature of the room, the hands of the master and the client’s skin, as well as the length, stiffness and thickness of the hairs to be removed.
Usually for the complete disposal of the female body of vegetation requires a small amount of the product, about the volume of a walnut. Consumption of cosmetics depends on the level of professionalism of the specialist, as well as the type and amount of hair.

Application

Then apply talc or powder for better adhesion with the hairs, stretch the paste in your hands to the desired plasticity and roll out on the stretched skin surface. Unlike waxing, this should be done strictly against the growth of hair, and removed in the opposite direction. Remnants of the epilating mixture are easy to remove with thermal water.
