Facial hair removal - what do I need?!

[Indecisivelurcher]

I don't know whether it's age / hormone related or what, but at am 38 I'm now spending more time plucking my chin than my eyebrows! When they grow back they can be sore or cause a spot. Also they don't all come through at once, so the patch is never fully eradicated! My moustache too seems darker and more lustrous. I have only ever bleached it at home with joleen, it used to be an infrequent summer job but I'm having to do it much more often and I'm more conscious of it. It's showing up in photos etc. Realistically I'm not going to go to a salon and get my face waxed, I won't have the money, time or pain tolerance and I don't want to be totally unhaired, am good with being more or less natural... with a few limits! What other options are there?!

I use my epilator. You can get ones specifically for the face but I just use the same one I do my legs with. Hurts mind, but you do get used to it after a really long time

I used veet for many years on my facial hair with good effect however I've now developed a sensitivity to it.
I now dermaplane which is quick and easy once you get the hang of it.

A Hollywood browser really easy to use and designed for your face.

Another epilator vote here. I used jolen in the past I have also tried plucking/laser the lot the only thing that works is the epilator - brace yourself it does hurt at first but you get used to it!

I've epilated my legs before for about 6m, jeeezzz Louise I don't think I could put that on my face . I don't know what those other two things are so will look it up! Dermaplane. Hollywood browser?!

I didn't know what a Hollywood Browzer was either, so I looked on Amazon and it seems to be a brand of dermaplaner. Good for peach fuzz but I'm not sure how easy it would be to apply it to more substantial hair on a top lip?

I use one of these for chin/upper lip, it's basically a tiny shaver and it's really quick and easy, and completely painless. There are dozens of brands and various sizes, this is mine (I think I originally saw it recommended on here).

My hair is very fair but I tend to get a few really long ones in my chin and down my neck, I've plucked and waxed and used cream so now I've given up and shave! Is this really bad? So far I don't have stubble and I feel confident I don't have a big hairy face
