waxing

[~RememberToForget~]

Anyone know of any 'natural' things you could use to make your own wax at home?

I know this doesn't answer your question, but speaking as someone who used to wax, I started using an epilator recently and love it. It's as easy as using an electric razor, gives you the same results as waxing, and best of all, no sticky mess. Just thought I'd throw that out there!

I buy a commercial body sugar kit and that works well and is easy to clean up; I imagine with some research you could probably come up with a recipe for something similar.

I use Moom which I get at our HFS. It's sugar based and as lemon and lavendar EO in it I think. It seems like I have to get it just the right temp though or it melts off of my face and doesn't remove anything. Or else it's too cold and then it hurts and still doesn't remove anything. if I get it just right then it works really well. I love that it's only sticky for a sec until you wash it off whereas wax is such a PITA. I agree w/ the other person that you could probably experiment or find a recipe for it but if it's sugar based then you might have the same issues w/ temp that I do. ?
