To make working with the sugar paste as variable and flexible as possible. The use of different base consistencies for sugaring, or a mixture of these, enables effortless and thorough treatment of different skin areas at any time. The “optimum consistency” for sugaring is soft enough to capture every hair and at the same time firm enough to remove even the thickest, unwanted hair. The “optimal” consistency under the given circumstances also depends heavily on the external circumstances, such as room temperature, the heat of the user’s hands or the texture and heat of the skin area to be treated. It can therefore vary from case to case whether a firmer or softer consistency is more suitable for the treatment.
