What you need to know about facial hair removal


It is often the best way to remove facial hair, but you need to know a few facts about facial waxing before you proceed.

Of all the areas of the skin that sport hair, having hair on the face is the worst. Every woman has some amount of hair on the face. In some, the hair is dense and curly, and clearly visible. This means that regular salon visits are necessary to keep the facial hair in check.

Facial hair cannot be treated the same way as other kinds of body hair. The hair is fine and sparse, and the facial skin is quite delicate. So there can be no harsh measures when removing facial hair. But in recent times, more and more women are opting to wax the face. Let’s understand how facial hair removal can be done with waxing.

* Hair removal depends on your lifestyle. Like with hair on the rest of your body, even the facial hair keeps growing and it is clearly visible. If you routinely have some spare time on your hands, you can schedule regular salon visits for beauty treatments and also hair removal. Most women prefer to get facial hair bleached or threaded off. Shaving on the face is a strict ‘No’, as is using depilatory creams not designed for facial hair removal.

* Waxing is better, but…Increasing numbers of women are opting for facial waxing to get the hair off smoothly and quickly. But be warned that the facial skin is quite delicate and thin. Despite many pain-relieving measures, facial waxing hurts quite a lot. Also, not all women are good candidates for it. Women with loose, sagging skin will experience a greater degree of skin looseness after waxing, since the wax strips pull at the skin. Those prone to acne or skin rashes also report a worsening of the skin condition after waxing.

* But is works splendidly for most. However, leading brands like Veet have created special facial waxing strips that are designed for frequent, gentle use. The strips are fortified with Shea Butter, to meet the needs of sensitive facial skin. The strips are to be used on the upper lip, chin and cheeks. Once waxed, hair on these areas takes about four weeks to regrow. This means you get four weeks of smooth, glowing facial skin without any fuzz.


* Or you could try trimming the facial hair. If you’re still wary about going the facial waxing route, you could remove facial hair using Veet Sensitive Touch Beauty Trimmer. It works by trimming the facial hair on the sideburns, chin, upper lips, cheeks and the forehead. The device does not use blades, so there is no danger of cutting your delicate facial skin. You get a smooth visage quickly and without fuss.

5 The best way to have beautiful feet – get a pedicure!

The feet are the most overworked part of the body. They carry our weight all the time, and it is only when they begin to hurt that we realise how tired they are.

You don’t need a complicated foot care routine to have happy, healthy feet – just get a pedicure . Sit back in your chair and relax as the podiatrist kneads your tired feet, massages them and paints your toenails a pretty colour. You will feel refreshed once your pedicure is complete. Why is a pedicure essential? We live in stressful times, and our feet bear the brunt of our excesses. They need regular soaping, cleaning and massaging to look and feel great.
