I have just had one of those bendy springy thingys delivered. Oooo nippy but it seems to get the little ones without having to dig and route about for them. Time will tell but it brought tears to my eyes.

   but I enjoys a good root for those thick white hairs ……… excavating perhaps I was a miner in a previous Life

[honeybun]

Excavating makes my chin sore. It's the bristly ones just at the side of my mouth and my upper lip that really annoy me.
Hubby wanted to know what had been delivered this morning. I told him he really did not need to know. No doubt my daughter will discover it soon as she is always in my drawers looking for something that I never see again 

Don't think she will want to borrow this

  …….. any thing other than personal items, my DH wouldn't notice the package being delivered 

My top lip is a real nuisance particularly under my nose, those hurt when pulled but I am fed up using creams 

[Dulciana]

I'm not, CLKD! Just a few minutes with the cream and the radio on, then hey-presto! they're  removed!   

[CLKD]

It's about 10 mins. at night - otherwise I go round the next day with bright red upper lip which SHOWS  and DH can smell the preparation after use.  But I get fed up doing it ……… hence the tweezers 

[honeybun]

I'm scared to use cream. I had a very bad reaction once on my legs and swore never again. Knowing my luck I would end up looking as if I had been punched in the mouth.

I would love to just cream it all away though.

I use Weleda's calendula cream on the area afterwards and there's never any redness. 

[CLKD]

Creams have improved a lot in recent years.  I have tried all of them.  I use them at night …….. also, the cream for legs is different to that to be used on the face and bikini line - apparently and certainly I haven't had a facial rash with the ones that I use.

[honeybun]

Still scared....


My dad used to tell me that anything that is powerful enough to melt hair should not be used on skin 

I ignored him and ended up in a right mess.

   your Dad would know then  ………. did he try it first ……….. I do find that under my chin if I use a good face cream and leave it for a few moments, the hairs do 'pull' easier  except those that are white and wiry …….

Had another full threading experience 2 days ago , have signed up for 4 more, will let you know about the re growth,

[CLKD]

I had eyebrows threaded in Sept., left them in a right mess at the hair grew back  and it HURT 

[honeybun]

The bendy springy thingy seem to work well.

My daughter as predicted found it....just shows how much of my stuff she pinches......it really takes out the little hairs. Silver lady pointed me towards this. It seems to take the hit a and miss work out of using tweezers.

Now feeling much more excess hair free.

I'm curious what the bendy springy thing is, I might want to order one!  I used to bleach the upper lip hair when I was young, never tried the dissolving cream.
