Once it boils, leave it to simmer until it turns golden brown. Then allow it to cool. Wash and dry the area where you want the hair to be removed. Sprinkle cornstarch and then spread a little of the sugar wax on the area in the direction of hair growth. Press a cloth strip on the wax. After a few minutes, pull the strip against the hair growth to remove the hair. Moisturize the area.
