cuz in korea kids my age don't really wax. what about veet wax strips? can i use them on my face?

i think veet is better than nair.. atleast the smell doesnt irritate.. but as long as it is for face.. i dont suggest either... using these makes the hair thicker and longer too...
it is always to either wax or thread the hair on your upper lip....
wax strips are good but they hurt like hell :).... it you can thread it that would be better way or you can try a plucker to pluck the hair out.. i am sure ir hurts but if you wet the area and then use a plucker/ tweezer.....
hope this helped... good luck

Well, im not sure, but I think the regular nair/veet for your legs will be too harsh for you face....your skin is too delicate for it.
I'm just curious why you can't wax it in Korea.....
I think they have nair/veet for the face but im not sure...
if not I guess the only other option would be to shave but I DON'T recommend that...
Good Luck!!!

try veet... i tried nair between my eyebrows because i had some small hairs... left in about 5 minutes and when i removed it, i was bleeding because some of the skin had been eaten away so i had some gross scabs from that.. never tried veet but i think it'd work.. and the girl that said one of them smells is right.. nair smells like really gross

Nair is too strong for skin on face. It will burn and make your skin scabby. Best advice is to get those little pink throw away razors and just dry shave (no cream) the area. Stick your tongue (inside your mouth) under the skin area you want to shave, and it makes the hairs stand out so you get smoother shave. You can use a razor several times before it gets too dull.

why dont you just go to a little market that every neighborhood has and shave it off. nair or veet. one of them i dont know which one smells nasty. like the hair salon cream thingy when you get your hair magic straightened. and its going to be right under your nose~~~~. you shouldnt worry about these things. but as a korean i do understand that we have visible upper lip hair, >:D

veet seems to be more gentle, but both would work. IF your skin is super sensitive than you might not want to do it then cause you could get a nasty rash.
