How to Eliminate Facial Hair without Making Yourself Cry

Facial hair is an issue to some degree for everyone. Of course it is a bigger deal for some than others. No matter who you are though, you tweeze at least one hair regularly. That is just a part of life.

But it you are like me, then plucking drives you insane. Sometimes I cannot see the mirror for the tears in my eyes! However, facial hair creams scare me. All I got in high school from using them was a red blister on my upper lip. Honestly I probably would have rather had the girlstache…

Fortunately, hair removal creams have come a long way since high school. Used to be, they were smelly and full of harsh chemicals. Now it’s practically aromatherapy to use one. Of course, you will still have to look out for some pitfalls.

Use these tips to make sure you get the best results possible from your facial hair remover:

1. Always test first. Before you smear it on your face, try it on your wrist. If you break out or feel any burning, then stop the experiment. Just a tiny dab should let you know whether the cream will work for you.

2. Keep an eye out for herbal ingredients. You just plain need chemicals to melt hair away. However, herbal extracts will help your skin recover from this attack. There is less likelihood of a breakout if you use facial hair removal products that contain heavy moisturizers and natural ingredients.

3. Go for the fragrance. You probably cannot forget the smell of that stinky stuff that was used to remove leg hair. That smell was caused by harsh, strong chemicals. Today’s creams contain ingredients to mask or eliminate these smells. This can save you a severe allergic reaction – and a strange sneeze splatter! Unless you can’t take artificial fragrances, opt for the scented stuff.

4. Move slowly. Once you use the cream on your face, go slowly. Always start out with the eyebrow area. It is far less sensitive than the upper lip area. If you have no trouble with your brows, then you can start on your lip or chin area.
