Sugar paste is made from all natural ingredients that are biodegradable. Waxing removes hair from the root as well as live skin cells where sugaring removes hair from the root without removing live skin cells. This makes sugaring a better option for people with sensitive skin. Sugar paste is normally the same temperature as your body temperature and wax is typically hotter. Sugaring removes the hair in the direction of hair growth which reduces the chance of getting ingrown hairs.
