Introducing Sugarpot Two New Variants (Matcha and Strawberry)

Hello ladies and gents ^__^ 

I'm back with Sugarpot heehee. They have new variants available on the market, matcha and strawberry. The two will surely be a hit like the chocolate and irresistible honey. 

The moment I opened the matcha, oh where should I begun?! The smell is so lovely and sweet, exactly like the green tea candy I bought from Japan. The texture itself is nice and like the honey variant. I'll show you all different texture from the 4 variants available, honey, chocolate, matcha and strawberry. 

The lovely strawberry that reminds me a lot of a strawberry jam, the smell of a fresh cooked strawberry with sugar, hmm, delightful. Sugarpot also made an announcement that all of their products are eatable....what?! Yes, they are actually may be finger licking good (not that I've tried them). Since they are made from all natural ingredients, they can be eaten, hmm, no wonder some ants are found around the products (so wrap them well or at least close the lid tightly). 

Isn't it pretty?! The red gel looks so appetizing, all products that touches the skin should be this good. Here are why I love Sugarpot:

All natural eatable ingredients. 

Can be used to wax the hair off the skin in a warmer condition (heated) or just as it is. 

It removes the hair with the clothe provided instantly and for me it is the best procedure ever. 

Here's why:

Compared to shaving, Sugarpot will not have a chance accidentaly shaving the skin and causing some cuts. 

Compared to epilator, Sugarpot is remotely as painful as epilating, if pain cause by epilating scored 7/10, I give Sugarpot 1/10. 

Compared to waxing in a parlour, a "cheap" one cause pain, chance of getting infection and unwanted attention (ehm from the screaming and problems afterward).

Compared to waxing in a reputable and branded parlour may not cause pain as much as the "cheap" ones nor getting infection, but they do cause pain financially. 

Compared to waxing in a parlour also means we have to make an appointment, go to their place and have a stranger do it for you. Sugarpot means the freedom to do it anytime, anywhere and with those we want to ^__~ a friend of mine even get used to wax by herself, even her bikini line (and Brazilian too). 

So there it goes, Sugarpot equals painless, cheaper, friendlier to the skin, freedom to wax anytime and anywhere, and now with added gimmicks, 4 irresistible flavors to choose from. Isn't it great?! 

Now, let me share with you the specialities of each flavors. These are the chocolate. It smells more like chocolate caramel, again, I have to restrain myself from licking it. The product is really thick compared to the other variant but works great as well. It can lift up hairs that are still a tiny sprouts to long ones. Please do pay attention to the instruction. 

A tips from me, I prefer my wax to be warm so I normally heated them first by putting the container in a hot water for 5 minutes. The wax will become runnier and easier to be used, when the liquid is thinner, I don't have to put it as much as when it's cold and it is able to glide easier and smoother on the skin. This is however a personal choice, you may use it warm and runnier or cold and thicker. 

When using warm, it is best to wait for a while after applying the sugar onto the hairy skin. So the sugar can "grab" to the hair tightly before pulling it off. When using cold (as in as it is, without heating it up first) the pulling can be almost immediately.

Here is the image of all four variants ^__^ they look like syrups ready to be put on a warm pancake or waffle. Oh, suddently I remember an episode from Friends where Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Monica stuck in Monica's room during Rachel and Ross's big 'we're on a break' fight. Those four people are starving that they are eating the wax :D with Sugarpot we can actually do that, LOL, not that I want that to happen (a condition where I'm stuck with no option of food). Well, anyway, this just show how 'real' natural the ingredients are. 

And below is the image of the sugars after being heated. When not, it is not easy to make them 'glide' from the spoons. 

As seen, the chocolate is the thickest and the honey is the lightest in terms of texture. Strawberry and matcha are somewhere in between but more close to the honey than chocolate. Which one do you choose? I assure you, they all wonderful. 

Thank you so much Sugarpot, please keep bringing new variants!! May I suggest creamy milky vanilla? And named it Vanilla Milkshake ^__^ heehee.

Sugar Pot in Pure Honey (for Waxing)

Hello everyone!!

Warning!!!

There's might be some unpleasant images here, don't say I didn't warned you.

Yup, it's about waxing and frankly speaking, waxing is no longer a new thing here, waxing places are sprouting everywhere in town. It is so different from 10 years ago where I think, I can only do a proper wax abroad. It's a very good thing that waxing become more 'approachable' >__<

Why do I like waxing?
First of all, the idea of pulling more hairs in one single striking movement than using epilator or worst plucking them one by one. Or the other common shaving method, usually cause more problems than solving, from the skin getting darker, irritations, to bumps and ouch!!! Ingrowns!! Arghh ... the horror.

I know waxing also have their own problem, from the unsanitized 'clinics' to the uneducated therapist. The thing is, now, it can be solved.

Sometime ago a representative from Sugar Pot gave me some of their products, 2 to be exact, and here they are:

How to Use Sugar Pot?
Sugar Pot dapat digunakan langsung tanpa dihangatkan namun dapat juga dihangatkan untuk kemudahan pengolesan.
1. Bersihkan bagian tubuh yang akan di sugar dan pastikan permukaan kulit kering. Taburkan bedak dan ratakan di permukaan kulit.
2. Oleskan pasta sugar menggunakan spatula ke daerah yang diinginkan mengikuti arah pertumbuhan rambut.
3. Tempelkan kain, tekan-tekan hingga kain menempel secara merata dengan pasta sugar seluruhnya.
4. Tarik kain berlawanan dengan arah pertumbuhan rambut secara CEPAT.
5. Setelah semua bagian yang diingini telah selesai di sugar, bersihkan bagian tersebut dengan air. Setelah itu bisa menggunakan baby cream untuk pencegahan iritasi lebih lanjut.

I starts with warming the pot in hot (not boiling) water. The honey melts in 5-10 minutes. I figure it will be much easier to do the process with a warm sugar since it will be easier to be applied and the warmth help open up the pores to 'loosen' the hair's root.

While waiting for the honey in the pot, here's is my model's armpit before the waxing action. In the direction, it is best for the hair to be at least 0.6cm long.

-*-

Ehm, heehee, trust me, it is best to leave the image slightly blurred and not so focused. This is the armpit hairs before, the hairs was around 0,7cm long.

And soon the Pure Honey melts and can be easily used now. Look how liquid it becomes.

And the smells, ooh yums! The Chocolate also smells like a liquid chocolate. Are they eatable? They are sugar, right? And made with pure honey and choco, right?

Maybe I just test it on ants first ^__^

-*-

Now, as the honey is ready, lightly dusted the area with powder, don't use too much and make sure the area is clean and dry too.

-*-

Put the honey lemon, hahaha ups! I'm thinking of a drink right now, I meant, put on the pure honey directly to the area. Use enough sugaring, don't put too little or too much as it will become messy. I must admit, on this area, a partner will be helpful. 

-*-

Make sure all the hairy part got the honey, and then use the clothe given and pressed it onto the sugared part. Make it nice and firmly stick.

-*-

Wait around 10-15 seconds and then pull it away as quick as I can and we did it! The hairs are all plucked.

-*-

Does it hurt? In a minute, yes. After that the pain slowly reduced and reduced. If there's still hairs, apply the honey once again only on the area needed. Now, my tips is NOT to let one area be waxed more than 3 times during one session. It is actually an advice from an expert waxer. More than 3 waxes will irritate and damages the skin and longer healing time as well.

Wait around 3-4 days to do it again or perhaps just plucked it one by one since there aren't many anymore.

And one more thing.

-*-

Don't put too much powder on the area. This is what it will look like (image taken from the other armpit), the powder will stick themselves to the sugar and not on to the hair.

Conclusion,
it is a wonderful products from Sugar Pot that actually works! The sugar melts easily and also very easy to be used. The only downside is you kinda need someone else to help you with the application, not on areas such as legs or arms, more like bikini line and armpit. So far, there's no signs of irritation made because of Sugar Pot.

The price is really affordable and the clothes given also easily cleaned. I use the same warm water for the pot to then clean the used clothes.

The success rate of using the product will depends on the user as well, in the end, practice, practice and practice ^__^ But hey, if I can do it in one go, everyone can.

Thank you Sugar Pot.
