Facial epilators

Best thing I’d suggest is derma planing.
Tkmaxx sell these blades in packs of six & are very safe to use.
What you need to do is clean your face, then apply an oil. I use grape oil. Gently slide the blade in a sideways angle, wipe the blade on a clean tissue.
The hairs don’t grow in darker or thicker. I promise.
I do mine once a month.
Loads of clips on YouTube.
My husband use to comment was I growing my tash for Movember as it would shine in the sun.
He’s never said anything for ages, & doesn’t know I do this.
I do get an odd thick hair but just pluck those out (they aren’t the same thing as peach fuzz), tends to be us blondes & redheads that suffer from peach fuzz.

I bought one of these from eBay. Despite the low price, this is brilliant! It comes with a charging cable.

My face is thd only place my hair grows these days snd I have tried everything over thd years. Ended up using scissors but I took a chance snd bought a small white one in Asda. It’s their own make snd costs £8. It doesn’t hurt and works really well and I wouldn’t be without it.

Help! My facial hair is getting beyond a joke now! Apart from all the plucking when I look in the magnifying mirror my face looks positively furry! I do have a little epilator but it doesn’t do anything. Has anyone got one they use that actually makes a difference?
Also, any recommendations for good tweezers. Honestly, what a chore - it’s a good job I’m retired!
