5 out of 5 starsFirst time shopper. I bought 2 elixirs just in case . I rolled the dice and I’m so glad I did. I would have ordered more if I didn’t. I’m set for a good few months and will re order again!

5 out of 5 starsI have used the aloe vera elixir for a few weeks now. It’s great! I typically use box store bought makeup remover. I used the elixir after and it picked up makeup residue that I thought I thoroughly got rid of. So, what I do now is makeup remover, wash face , then use the elixir as a toner. It feels fresh and dries quick. I tho l it’s helped my skin a lot. I have melasma and my skin is dry all the time. This helps so much. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions
Sugaring Paste (Traditional) or Sugaring Wax (modern): Which is right for you?
There are 2 methods to sugaring
**For beginners & those whose hairs are naturally thick, I always suggest starting with sugaring paste. Once your hairs begin to grow back thinner & sparser (given you've heeded the advice of removing hairs at 1/8" growth Anagen stage with sugaring), then would be a great time to try the sugaring wax.
**For those whose hairs naturally grow thin and/or have been faithful waxers & would like a different, natural alternative, go ahead & try the sugaring wax. You can still use sugaring paste as well.
If you are not certain which way to go you can message me directly and I’ll walk you through picking out the best product for you.
Can sugaring make hair removal last forever?
It is possible to become permanently hairless if you sugar yourself correctly and regularly. If and how long it will take you to stay hairless depend on several factors. As every human being is an individual, there are individual hair types, so it could be the case that you stay hairless after a few treatments whereas others may need much more. Also, the method you previously used to remove hair has a strong influence. Hair growth intensity is stronger in some areas of the body than in others; in these areas it will naturally take more treatments.
Use Sugaring Paste at the Anagen stage of growth if your goal is permanency.
Refer to http://www.jbhomemade.com/science-sugaring-leads-to-permanent-hair-removal for more science on the matter.
How long does JBHomemade’s Sugaring Paste or Wax last?
You should close the container immediately after using the paste. When kept dry and stored at room temperature (65-70 degrees) in a dark place JBHomemade Sugaring Paste and Wax should last at least 12 months.
Does Sugaring hurt as much as waxing?
I can answer in my opinion No way. (Depending on your sensitization, tolerance of pain level, etc., that is.) This answer varies as well.
Variants:
#1 - Length of hair (most people report that the longer the hair is, the more the sugar is felt is the spreading action, but less so in the removal action).**Trim hair to 1/4" for best results for a first time user.
**After the first use, hair can be as short as 1/8" and it is even less painful than the first time because hairs are already finer and sparser.
#2 - Use of corn starch or powder greatly reduces the amount of pain.
#3 - Follow instructions to the tee! Research, watch vids, and see in action before attempting blind. Know what you are doing before you try it.
Can you tell me more about the plants you use in you skin care and scrubs? How can plants, herbs and flowers benefits my skin?
I have over 30 herbs and flowers I grow in my organic gardens to give you the best of ingredients for my skin care and sugar scrub products. And if I can't grow it - the Amish do! I have a full list of ingredients and their benefits. Are you unsure which herb or flower will best suit your skin and skin's needs? It's not just about scent. You want to think about what that herb or flower can do for your skin. Check out all of the ingredients and take the Natural Skin Care Wish List here: http://www.jbhomemade.com/botanical-skin-care
When it comes to skin care, one can never be too careful. Gone are the days when I will venture to the local drug store or department store and choose my skincare based on the name brand.
How to store JBHomemade’s Sugaring Paste and Wax?
Sugaring MUST be stored at room-temperature. Do not store it in the fridge. Close the container tightly and securely so it will not absorb moisture from the room which can change sugar gel texture. Always store you’re Organic Sugaring Paste and Gel/Wax in a cool, dry place, ideally between 60-70°.
I am prone to ingrowns, what can I do to help this?
There are a few basic things you can do to reduce and get rid of ingrown hairs. First and foremost, exfoliate and moisturize! Using a natural bristle body brush, exfoliating cloth or brush, or our exfoliating scrub (recommended); 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.
If you find your ingrown are painful and pustulous, add an antibacterial ingredient to disinfect and help draw out the bacteria.
Before Sugaring: Oatmeal Mint Brown Sugar Scrub
After Sugaring: Any of the oil based scrubs are great for after care!
What are the benefits of sugaring?
Short and sweet, some of the benefits include:
Much less painful than traditional waxing
Eliminating ingrown hairs and preventing new ones
Extracting all hair colors and textures
Gentle on skin allowing for reapplication for missed hairs
Improved skin tone and texture
More sanitary than waxing, Sugaring is never recycled and there is no “double dipping”
Can lead to permanent hair removal
Water soluble for an easy clean up
Eco friendly
