Embarrassing facial hair? Help is on the way
Do you ever catch a glimpse of yourself in the sunlight and gaze at just how pretty your lipgloss looks? Yeah, me too. Are your eyes then torn away by the completely visible hairs on your top lip?! Eek!
Yeah, it happens to the best of us. Honestly, embarrassing facial hair plagues more of us than you may well think. The trick is being able to take care of it in a subtle way – and I'm happy to tell you there are plenty of cheap, easy-to-use solutions out there for everyone.
I thought I'd round up a few of the best facial hair removers available and show you why they're worth spending your beauty bucks on.
Waxaway Precision Wax Wand
Why we love it: the easy-to-use wax wand makes application a breeze, plus it's gentle enough to ensure you don't wax off more from your mono brow than you intended!
Why bh members love it: "It is super easy to get the wax precisely where you want it and I find when I wax my own eyebrows the pain and redness factors are much less! I have been using this wand for two years now and haven't paid for an eyebrow wax in that time." - Meghead87
Nad’s Facial Hair Removal Strips
Why we love it: these facial strips feature a unique contour weave, which means they fit the contours of your face perfectly.
Why bh members love it: "The wax strips are the perfect size for the face area. I usually use them on my upper lip, and in between my brows. The strips are soft, and work well. So convenient, none of that warming up the wax and spatula nonsense." - Hippy
Andrea Gentle Hair Remover
Why we love it: if you're not all that into waxing, hair removal creams are great! We love this one as it's designed for use on the face and contains a soothing cream to use afterwards.
Why bh members love it: "This is a fast, effective and painless way to remove upper-lip & chin hair." - dawndale

Yep, I get a tiny little mo which I wax off every now and then with Nair facial wax strips, works a treat. Have always wanted to try threading but haven't found anywhere to go for it yet!

I've been looking for a post like this for ages! Thanks bh. I might try the waxing strips for my upper lip. I used Nair's facial remover cream last time and it just irritated my skin for two weeks.

I've never waxed my face, and I'm hoping I won't need to in the future, although you never know!

I pluck my eyebrows and that's all the hair removal I do on my face. The thought of removing fine hair from my top lip is unappealling to me. I have been wanting to try the Waxaway Wand for my eyebrows to see how it goes for easy no fuss hair removal. SandraXxX

I hate facial hair i use a cream on my face to get rid of it, but you have to do it every couple days it grows back quickly, I have tried waxing but I never do a good job need to go to the salon sometime and have it done.

i do like the wand and mini strips, but i still prefer to go to a professional! not sure about using hair removal creams on my face though- it just seems so toxic and scary!

Hair removers are not really effective for me. Simple tweezer does the job best.

I am starting to notice a bit of a girl-tache, so I will have to invest in one of these options.
