Sugar Betty is a small Canadian company that has been a labor of love (and fear).

The story began like a lot of my stories begin…..I found a new DIY challenge! The project was body sugaring…..from scratch. I read recipes from the internet and decided it looked like a pretty simple process, so I cooked up a batch the day before leaving on vacation to B.C., in July. I was armed with my little jar of what I thought of as “Magic Wax” – It had all the virtues of wax, and none of the drawbacks….a completely natural product for hair free skin and excellent exfoliation, with no burning, no tearing, and no weird chemical reactions! MAGIC! And, I had a very cooperative victim in mind as a test subject.
