Girly Tip #2

Never double wax your top lip.

Ok granted some girls don't wax at all and that's cool, if your man friend's into mustaches (see image to your left). I am not judging you. Each to their own. However, if you think like me then, body hair is a no no, unless its located on the top of your head or above the eyes (see Girly Tip #1). 

Deep Breath.

I wax my top lip because I can't afford laser, I shaved my own arms, remember! And I have had the misfortune of double waxing. i.e: applying the 'innocent' looking wax strip to the skin, pulling off against the grain and then reapplying to the same area. I am sure that somewhere it states, clearly, that this is a bad idea. Obviously I missed this. Why? Because:

1. I removed a few layers of skin from my face, which I don't notice at first, in fact I don't notice at all really, until someone pointed this out. Now if this happened to you, you'd understand that this person is generally the last person you'd want to see you with a self inflicted rash on your top lip. Who? I don't know, maybe SOMEONE LIKE YOUR BOYFRIEND! And this generally happens with a furrowing of the eyebrows and some very uncomfortable staring, then he says: What the fucks wrong with your face. And yes, this often happens at dinner. Oh my sainted uncle.

2. It does not and I repeat DOES NOT go away quickly and no amount of concealer does an adequate job of hiding it. No matter what you do, it looks like your face had an altercation with the floor. Face = 0 Floor/Sandpaper = 1

3. After the redness subsides, about 2/3 days, your skins peels. This goes down a treat first thing in the morning when your guy sees you before you've had time to see yourself (and fix the leprosy located on your lip).

4. This post doesn't even need a four. And you thought sunburn was bad...
