It's no secret that beautiful ladies like to complex about their appearance.

And despite the fact that everyone perfectly understands and accepts the animal origin of man, almost everyone suffers from the thought that someone might suspect her of excessive hairiness.

In order to avoid this, various methods and methods of struggle are used.

For example, legs are shaved using a machine or an epilator, laser hair removal is performed in the bikini area, what grows under the armpits or on the forearm is shaved.

More difficult with facial hair. A depilator will not help here - it hurts too much, and I don’t really want to use a razor - but how will grandmother’s tales turn out to be not fairy tales at all and the hair in place of the shaved ones will grow much thicker, harder and thicker ?!

For such a delicate, sensitive and "revealing" place, it is worth trying such a way to fight for beauty as bleaching facial hair.

Facial hair lightening

You probably noticed that at the very beginning of summer all people are much hairier than by its end? Of course, this is just an illusion.

It's just that at the beginning of summer the skin is light and vegetation is clearly visible on it in those people who were not born blondes and blondes.

With every sunny day, with every sunbath, a person's hair naturally becomes bleached, lighter, and skin darker.

Lightening of facial hair also occurs and unwanted vegetation is successfully masked until the next winter period, when the weakened sun's rays are no longer able to cope with this task.

Thus, years of experience will show whether such a method of solving a cosmetic problem as bleaching facial hair is right for you. And if you really look better in the summer without any painful hair removal, then this is definitely your way.

The best recipes for lightening facial hair

When choosing a way to lighten facial hair, you should carefully study the features of each and take into account the existing advantages and disadvantages. The most common among our compatriots is the lightening of facial hair by the so-called "grandmother's" methods.

For those who do not know how to lighten facial hair, so as not to bother too much, we will advise the first method - elementary.

Purchase a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution at the pharmacy. Moisten a cotton pad with the solution and wipe the skin where the hairs grow for five minutes.

Repeat this procedure once every day for 5-7 days. Stop the procedure when the lightening effect becomes noticeable.

The hair will thin and become significantly lighter, and this will happen the faster, the lighter your natural tone.

For individuals with sensitive skin who wish to lighten their facial hair, a more gentle procedure may be offered.

Three percent peroxide should be mixed with good shaving foam in a ratio of 50/50 (i.e. in equal volumes).

The resulting mixture is applied to areas of the skin where necessary and incubated for twenty minutes.

A popular way is to bleach facial hair with homemade perhydrol ointment. Such an ointment gives not only lightening of facial hair, but also significantly slows down their growth.

Ointment components: lanolin - 12 grams, petroleum jelly - 8 grams, perhydrol - 2 grams, ammonia - 1 drop, shampoo - in an amount sufficient to make the mixture become the consistency of thick sour cream, mix and beat into a homogeneous mass.

Apply perhydrol ointment to the desired areas of the skin on the face with a plastic spatula.

After application, you need to wait for the mass to dry and then rinse it off with slightly warm water. This is a good lightening option even for girls with dark hair.

Another way to lighten facial hair is with ammonia and hydrogen peroxide.

Fifty grams of peroxide is mixed with half a teaspoon of ammonia and shaving cream is added, kneading until a homogeneous mass is obtained in density resembling non-greasy sour cream, but not spreading.

The resulting mixture is applied to the skin with unwanted hairs and kept for ten minutes.

After holding the specified period, the ointment is removed with a cotton swab, the face is rinsed with warm water without soap. After the procedure, it is good to lubricate the face with a nourishing cream.

Caution in this case never hurts. Before you do this procedure yourself at home, make sure that the amount of facial hair is not very large.

The lush vegetation will still require more decisive action from you. For example - depilation with wax or special cosmetic procedures offered by salons - laser, electric or photoepilation.

If you are not sure that the amount of hair on your face does not exceed the average norm for women of your nationality, consult a doctor - “extra” hair indicates a hormonal imbalance in the body and requires you to pay more attention to your health.

And the procedure itself. The composition applied to the skin will bake, but within tolerable limits. If the burning sensation becomes unbearable, wash everything off immediately, because. You may be having an allergic reaction to the ingredients.

For rinsing in case of burning, it is better to use cold water, not warm. If the reaction was not very strong, the procedure can be carried out several times for a shorter time.

After the procedure, you will notice that in addition to the hairs, the skin also brightened. Do not panic, this effect disappears before our very eyes.

However, given the possible effects, it is best to perform the procedure on Saturday or even Friday evening, on the eve of two days off.

Be always beautiful and well-groomed!

The skin of the face of any person is covered with an inconspicuous fluff. Alas, in some representatives of the weaker sex, these hairs have a dark color, and therefore are visible to the naked eye.

In order not to be embarrassed by their appearance, as well as enjoy the reflection in the mirror, many women use all kinds of means to lighten their hair.

You can cook them yourself at home. And some of them can even be found in the first-aid kit!

You can take…

Peroxide

The easiest and most inexpensive way to lighten facial hair is to treat it with a solution of hydrogen peroxide (3%). The procedure is very simple: moisten a cotton pad with peroxide well enough, and then wipe the problem areas with it. This must be done within 5 minutes. Of course, once will not be enough to notice the result. With daily use, dark hairs will definitely brighten! It is worth noting that the hydrogen peroxide solution can be replaced with lemon juice. It must be freshly squeezed, otherwise there will be no effect.

A 3% hydrogen peroxide solution can be used alone or in combination with other components. So, for example, mixing peroxide and shaving cream in equal proportions, apply the composition to areas of the face with dark hairs. Rub it, as in the recipe above, do not have to. But leave for 20 minutes - yes. After the foam should be washed off with plain water, and a nourishing cream should be applied to the face. To enhance the effectiveness of the composition, it is enough to pour a couple of drops of ammonia into it. It is necessary to apply the foam on the fluff at least every other day. After 4-5 procedures, the effect will be obvious - dark hairs will become discolored, and their growth will slow down significantly.

Hydroperite or clarifier based on it

To bleach the hair on the head, some women use hydroperite tablets. This substance can also be used to lighten facial hair. To do this, you need 1 tablet of hydroperite, crushed into powder, as well as a few drops of ammonia and a solution of hydrogen peroxide (3%). The components must be mixed with a stick until a thick homogeneous mixture is formed. This "mask" should be applied to problem areas, and after 10 minutes, rinse thoroughly with water. After that, in order not to overdry the skin, a nourishing cream is applied to the face.

Thanks to this procedure, the hair quickly brightens, becomes thin and brittle. However, it is not recommended to do it more than once a week. It is worth noting that such a mixture can be applied only to those areas with hairs where there are no wounds, acne. Otherwise, there is a high probability of getting rid of the dark fluff, but at the same time getting the strongest irritation.

To treat facial hair, you can also use a regular hair clarifier - in fact, the same hydroperite, but in liquid form. It should be applied to the face, as in the case of peroxide, with a cotton pad, and washed off only after 10 minutes.

Perhydrol

To lighten the fluff on the face, you can use an ointment based on perhydrol - a 30% hydrogen peroxide solution. To prepare a homogeneous mass, you will need 4 drops of perhydrol, 1 tsp. lanolin and ½ tsp. vaseline. After that, you need to add 2 drops of ammonia and ¼-½ tsp. shampoo. The mixture must be thoroughly whipped, then transferred to a small container.

The ointment should be applied to the hairs with a spatula or cotton swab and left on the face until completely dry. Only after that it must be washed off with warm water, and the treated areas should be lubricated with a nourishing cream. Perhydrol-based ointment can be used 2-4 times a week.

It is important to remember the following: women with sensitive skin should be careful when using the above formulations. Some products that lighten hair can cause irritation.
