Farhina,
No beauty expert says u wax every week. when I went to a salon for a more permanent fixture like Microlysis (a pain free electronic solution for permanent hair removal) she was horrified that I waxed once every week or fortnightly.. She said I should wax once a month or once every 6 weeks and I should bleach in between.
I was told waxing every week just breaks the hair and thats equivalent to shaving.

Waxing never break hairs. Also remmeber American girls hair are thiner that asian girls. Waxing pull hair with roots. Bleaching should be down only once a month becuase it got chemical. Stay away from chemicals as much you can. Use Lemon instead. Makes your skin soft, shiny and bleach it too. all naturally.
Farhina,
im no expert but hair has a growing stage and a waxing stage. waxing every week is definetly wrong.
whats this lemon?

Yesterday I did something I dont ever plan on doing again. I tried to wax certain parts of my face, and the end result is horrible. I dont know if this is cause I just have sensitive skin there or what.
Anyway, my face was fine that day when I did it, but the next day(today) I look like a pepperoni pizza face. I dont even want to step outside. cwy.
How do I get rid of the acne?? I've never been faced with this dilemma before. Looked up home remedies on acne. They seemed to suggest salt and water, or toothpaste overnight.
Any suggestions? I need helpppppppp!!! Thanks in advance.

GREAT :)LEMON.
CUT IN TWO PEICES RUB IT ON YOUR FACE AND LET IT DRY. IT DOES WONDERS FOR MY SKIN .. SAJAL YOU HAVE SEEN MY BEAUTIFUL SKIN ;).( SO BE A WITNESS) NO BLEACH CREAM SAY YES TO LEMON...
Lemon scrub:
You can make lemon scrub add spon of sugar on top of one piece of lemon and massage gently. ( will take off dry skin and make your skin and ofcourse sweet ;).
JUST ANOTHER TIP.. TRY IT
If you use cake eyeliner, or like to use eyeshadow as a liner,
instead of using water, use a few drops of Visine Eye Drops.
This will make your liner last longer than with regular
water and acts as a sealer...
remmeber vasine eye drop:) nex time you use water for your liner.
PS: mem shaib.
How about use wax as needed sounds to you :).
OUCH ! OUCH ! OUCH !
I feel your pain Munni : (
Try the parlour next time. And NEVER at home :nono:
OR, OR, ORRRR....
Which kind of wax did you use? I mean there is the warm wax, traditional guey stuff. Why not try wax strips? I don't use either personally but just a thought.......the wax strips much more hassle-less.
Thank you all for the replies and suggestions. I tried some of them, and slowly but surely my face is clearing up.
Next time I will do a "test section" first. giggle
Disco Duck, I tried Nads, which worked great on other areas, just not on my face. It doesnt require heating. Thanks for suggestion!
Munni, your skin is sensitive..you know what you should do just to check..place an ice cube for few secs lets say on your arm..and if it stay yellow for a while..that means that you got a sensitive skin..so how about using deplitory creams..like face creams next time..or how about giving laser or photo epilation system a try?

get it waxed again and instead of looking like a pepporono pizza u will look like a halal salami pizza and i think halal is better. :D
Qrius, whats photo epilation? I will do laser once I can afford it, just not right now.
Ice cube on my tan arms, hmm, I dont think I can tell if it will be yellow, just brown maybe. hehehe. Will try it on another part, thanks for the tip.
eddy, no thanksssssss, I dont want any sort of pepperonis or halal salami on ma face! Once was more than enough at this age. grin

i feel sorrie for u. well i hope u get the problem solved. good nite
n wat r u doin in here:hoonh:
Farheen can we use the lemon scrub everyday, every week or every month??? I know its a dumb question but thats how i am :D
Munni, photo epilation works almost like laser..the difference is the technology..photo epilation basically uses light instead of laser beam..it also destroys the hair from root..and i have read the research that its better than laser and even cheaper as compared to laser :) It doesn't hurt at all..actually i once attended a consultation session with a technician and got a test patch done once..i thought that it was a neat thing.
I'm interested in this lemon thingie as well...what are its benefits?!?! Details por favor!! :D
