Answer 1

none of these options are brilliant, I would permanently remove the hairs with laser treatment in a clinic. It's pretty expensive but definitely worth it. My aunt had it done and her face is now totally smooth and lovely. Whatever you do, don't pluck or wax them, they'll come back thicker and you'll probably get ingrown hairs which will cause spots. If you have to use make-up, make sure it's a good one like Estee Lauder and that it matches your skintone.

Answer 2

I think threading is the best answer. I live in the Middle East and Indians and Arabs use thread and 'snip" off the hair. Shaving is not good as it will grow back with deeper roots. And bleaching? I dunno.... and some of those hair removing chemicals can be very harsh and cause allergic reations.

There are fruit facials here in the Middle East that remove facial hair but I dont know what they are...unfortunately. There is something here called 'sheera" and it is a fruit and honey or sugar mixture, boiled until taffy like, spread on and pulled off. Many women do a full body with this process. Its completely natural and removes the hair deep down. I think it is the best way to remove hair.

Try and find a Middle Eastern or Indian woman, (if you live in a metropolian city) that knows these methods and maybe they can help you. As an American female, having waxed before...I find threading, sheera and the fruit masks better options.

Bleaching is the only way of making it less visible. You can buy it in a good chemist.

Use a face powder padded on lightly or a good foundation but please don't go over the top with it. It looks terrible when girls wear too much foundation because it dries in patches and looks cloggy and orange. If unsure, try some then ask someone you trust if it's too much. Boots no 7 'stay perfect' foundation is good, it lasts all day and goes a long way.

Answer 4

hi, i would not put make up and powder on as it will surely clump in the hair and draw more attention to it. You are right not to bleech. Waxing doesn't suit everyone, could result in spots or rash and may not be suitable for use on all areas of face. Perhaps you could try electrolysis, i think is expensive, but will be worth it as over the years you will probably spend a fortune on make-up trying to cover it up...so could be better in long run. DO NOT SHAVE! Maybe it could be hormonal, i heard that that is common when a female has a hormone inbalance, see your GP for any advice. I really dont advise make up as a soloution, people will see it and will make it worse!

Answer 5

I think it might be a bit hard to
cover it up ; I have dark hair to
so I wax my brows & lip . If you
have side burns or something
try using a cream. I have one -
I dont know what it's called b/c
I dont use it but you just rub it on
& take it off in 5 minutes with a
cotton ball - it works wonderfully.

&& well now they have
lazor hair removal which is
something I have been looking
into since waxing is such a pain
with dark hair - it isnt all that expensive
& you'll never have to worry about it
again :]

Answer 6

You'll never cover it successfully with make up - it will just draw attention to it. Waxing is never a good idea on the face as it stretches the skin and will eventually cause long term damage like wrinkles. My advice would be to find someone who does threading and try that. Shouldn't be too difficult if you are Asian - as most people who do this tend to be of Asian origin anyway. They use sewing thread, looped over the fingers like a cats cradle and by manipulation of the fingers causes the thread to act like tweezers, but is much quicker as it takes out multiple hairs and gives a very clean finish. I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt - but only like pinging an elastic band against the skin. It's very quick and over time the hair gets finer and weaker & therefore easier to treat. It's brilliant for eyebrows too and gives a very sharp, neat result.

Answer 7

have you tryed hair removal by electrolocis major beauty places do this and most local collage offer this at extreemly cheep everybody has to learn from somewhere failing that get it waxed but youlle have to keep it up every 4-6 week if you keep getting it waxed over a period of time the hairs may not return or be very sparce

Answer 8

Don't put makeup over facial hair, remove the hair. There are some great facial hair remover creams if you are afraid of waxing. Or boots has a little shaver the size of a pen that would whip it right off. Alternatively, grow it long and plait it.

Answer 9

I have a better solution for your question.
I am in no doubt God created you in his own image.A make up to change your facial appearance would make you ugly than anyone has ever imagined. Your likeness to God will be ended , if you won't resemble an animal then you won't differ much with satan.
Nice time

Answer 10

Don't use powder it will enhance the hairs. I use a liquid one which drys very smoothly - cost a bit but worth it. I would go to boots and ask one of the girls to assist you. There is nothing worse than walking around with the wrong mask on - tide marks are terrible.

Good luck in your quest.
