Body Sugaring Homecare Requirements

Sugaring is a technique employed to remove hair at the root. This process exfoliates and opens the pores each time the skin is sugared. As a result, it is important to remember that sweat and bacteria can irritate the newly sugared skin. After being sugared, we strongly recommend that you avoid going to the gym or any sort of rigorous exercise for 24 hours. We do not want to over-stimulate the skin, which could result in a breakout. Following the suggestions and guidelines below will help assure that your skin will remain as clear and trouble-free as possible in the first day after sugaring and beyond:

Avoid wearing sweaty clothing.
Avoid SPF for 24 hours.
Use SkinCeuticals Epidermal Repair to boost your skin's healing capabilities.

After 24 hours, use our Supracor Honeycomb loofah combined with a moisturizing Body Wash on a daily basis as sweat and bacteria can irritate the skin.

Body Scrubs should be used once a week all year round.

To avoid the possibility of ingrown hairs, use our Prince Reigns Ingrown Hair Serum

Return for sugaring within 21 to 28 days to achieve optimal results.

***All spa services incur an additional 4.5% service tax, per New York State regulations.
