1. Grab an empty microwave-safe container.
2. Add 1 glass of sugar.
3. Pour in 1/2 glass of honey.
4. Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 lemon.
5. Microwave the mixture for 2 minutes.
Your homemade wax is ready to use, pulling hair effectively just like salon-grade products. :-)
Alternative recipe: Mix 2 glasses of sugar, 1/2 glass of water, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons of honey.
You can also heat on the stovetop in a saucepan. Stir frequently—in the microwave, pause after 1 minute to stir, then heat another minute and stir again.
