What about hair removal creams? Someone recently mentioned Sally Hansen
Facial hair remover. Although I shave now and tha suits me just fine, a
couple of years ago I used that and loved it. I've got very sensitive
skin so I was pleased to find something that didn't irritate it. And it
doesn't leave the black dots or stubble-within-hours that shaving does.
It's a bit smelly though!
