Errrrr facial hair - how do you get rid?

I get my eyebrows waxed regularly but I've just noticed a bit of a tache appearing and although I am very fair I don't like it. Should I get it waxed at the same time as my brows - I do go a bit pink after! Was wondering whether cream removal might be a bit more gentle?

Veet facial waxing strips. Do it before you go to bed and redness will be gone by morning.

Cream makes me really rashy so do a patch test.

I use wax it's in an orange packet from boots and heats up on the hob like salon wax, never had a bad reaction to it. The other waxes tend to rip my skin off which is painful and not very attractive.

Ask your waxer about it. I have my tache (and stray chin hairs) sugared when I have my eyebrows done. Can sometimes be sore, especially when premenstrual! But doesn't last long and well worth it.

Facial wax strips. I buy Tesco own brand ones because they are cheaper but they do the same job. I use them before bed because I too get redness in the few hours after waxing!

I use this one "Emjoi AP-9L Epi Travel Compact Epilator"

In the past I used facial strips but even if I did it in the evening, the redness was not gone by morning. Before I go on hols I usuall have my leggs debushed by the beauticians. About an hour before I go I take a stong painkiller, which seems to take the edge of a bit.
