In Glamour's December 2011 issue, many beauty questions were answered, revealing some important information about women's facial hair maintenance.
Q: Is it better to wax or tweeze facial hair, or does it not matter which you do?
A: It's a numbers game. If you've got a spare hair or two coming out of your chin, pluck away. But if your facial hair is more widespread and dark, professional waxing is better. Try a calming lotion afterward to help avoid irritation and ingrown hairs. You can also try one of the new non-smelly facial depilatory creams. But please, don't shave your face!
Recommended product is Tweezerman's Charmed Slant Tweezer. This item also makes a good holiday gift!
