Homemade Wax

How do you make it ?
I got it the first time but failed for the next 3 times.

What’s the ratio of sugar, lemon and honey ?

Thanks :smiley:

I used to make it long time ago, dont remember the quantity :(

Re: Homemade Wax

2 CUPS SUGAR
¼ CUP LEMON JUICE
¼ CUP WATER

1) Put the water, lemon juice, and sugar in a saucepan and heat it on high. Don't use a teflon pan because it'll make the wax toxic. Boil for approximately ten minutes. Stir occasionally.

2) Watch the bubbles carefully. When the bubbles turn a light brown color, turn the heat down to low. The wax should be turning a golden brown color. Stir occasionally.

3) Let it simmer for about another five minutes on low while watching very carefully and continuously stirring.

When the wax turns golden brown, then it is done.

4) When the wax is on step three and is simmering, take a tiny bit out on a spoon and dip it into a clean bowl of cold water. When it cools enough to touch, it should be stretchy between your fingers.
Do this about every two minutes while the wax is simmering until it stretches out and pulls off easily. If it sticks and won't come off it's not done and if it's brittle you've overcooked it.

5) When it's done, remove from the heat and store it in a microwave safe container. Let it cool down before using it.
