Do you have unwanted facial hair?

Peach fuzz.  Lady mo.  Whiskers.  Whatever you call your unwanted facial hair, chances are you wish it'd just go away, rather than coming up with cute names for it.

Some ladies suffer from Vellous hair  - light, soft hair that can grow anywhere on the face and neck.  Whilst this kind isn't glaringly obvious it can make applying foundation a pain.  Then we have the darker, thicker unwanted hair.  Maybe around the upper lip, so you feel like a female Charlie Chaplin impersonator? 

There are many ways to get rid of facial hair, shaving is not one you want to consider unless you want to sport a 5 o clock shadow.  You could bleach it, but of course this still causes issues when applying makeup to the area.  You could try depilatory creams, but if you have sensitive skin you're not going to want to use that.  You want something that will give you smooth results for the longest time possible right?  Which brings you to the inevitable - that hair needs to be removed from the root!

We're putting the Epilady Esthetic Facial Epilator to the test, and we need 10 great reviewers to form a trial team and report back.  This hygienic & lightweight facial epilator is recommended for the removal of facial hair, inclusive of upper lip and chin. Designed with a security guard cap partially concealing Epilady's contoured PetiteCoil.   Epilady Esthetic is specifically styled to ensure precise control, confidence and safety.  Esthetic will result in delicate facial hair removal, blemish free and baby soft skin, whilst enhancing your femininity.

We thinkit sounds like a great solution for wanted facial hair - how about you?  If you'd like to put your hand up for this trial you'll need to take a quick survey for us.

Is this anything like the ones you can get for $2? I tried one that looks similar to the coil in the picture, and it didn't do anything other than make my eyes water but no removal of hair he he he, although I'm tempted to see if this one is any different as the Caci clinic I went to was so expensive lol.

I wax my "lady mo" and use tweezers sometimes which is super painful, This sounds interesting.

I get a fair but of facial hair. it's so embarrassing! I currently use either tweezers of wax. I would love to try this out. It would be a time saving for me!

This sounds gooood! No one wants to have to deal with face fuzz, but this sounds good and much better than my normal waxing eeeeek

Yes please! I'm really embarrassed by my facial hair :( there's so much I even went on special pill that was supposed to help reduce it :( but it didnt help, unfortunely its just a case of bad genes - thanks dad! ;) anyway I currently tweeze and wax absolutley love to try this.

I only currently use tweezers too, which takes ages, but mainly I'm a bit scared if I whip it all off it will come back with a vengeance and I'll end up with a beard!! Getting quite hairy around the jawline, mouth and chin. I would be keen to try the epilator; I use one on my legs so think I could probably cope, or at least know what to expect.

Unfortunately I have PCOS so unwanted facial hair has been with me since puberty. and I unfortunately shave my facial hair and use tweezers and yes in know shaving is the worse method, I just find im used to it now after so many years. but I would love a change and do something better and healthier for my skin. I have heard storeys about this sort of method but it will be good to hear what the people say about this brand.

27th August, 2014

This is what I've been looking for all my life haha! Would probably be excruciating but I'm a willing participant! I've probably not got the worst mo in the world but it is noticeable and it does interfere with my makeup so I try to get rid of it where I can.. I've suffered chemical burns from hair removal cream, hundreds of tiny pimples due to a wax reaction and currently get the area threaded although havn't been able to find a new place since I moved.. this sounds like a lifesaver!

I would love to be considered for this to get rid of my man mo lol, to me it's not lady like to have a mo so I tweeze or pluck the ugly futz that stick out. Having a mo gives me insecurities at times wondering if people are staring at me because there is hair above my lip so I constantly pluck

27th August, 2014

Aaaaaaah facial hair haha! I tweeze out the darkest hairs that show up and wax off the lighter ones every so often when I get sick if them and want a smoother canvas for my foundation. I like epilators in general, I have one that I use for my legs and it's great.

Waxing tends to do the trick for me because its fast, but it's also painful and it needs to be done right. I usually try to stick to tweezers but they can grow tiresome very quickly.

sadly I'm using tweezers and hair removal cream which burns my skin and I'm left with a sore upper lip all night. Then i wake up next morning with a fuzzy feeling on my upper-lip very painful and upsetting i also use tweezers for those odd black long ones that keep growing in weird spots on my face and chin . Would be awesome to find a product or item to save the pain i put myself through and make me feel better about ME

I've never used a facial epilator before but figure it could only be as painful as my current hair removal method of tweezing as I'm only removing a small amount of hairs as opposed to using something like this on your legs, which I think would be extremely painful. I'm constantly at my chin hairs, I don't have a lot but they are persistant and dark. I also use depliatory cream for the slight mo I have on the corners of my upper lip.

27th August, 2014

I have never tried anything like a epilater before.I use tweezers and a razor naughty I know. I'd love to try something new and exciting like that I'm sure I would handle a little bit of pain for the good lol .

27th August, 2014

Oh sounds great. Hope Im selected then I can banish my tweezers lol. Its just those annoying facial hairs that can drive you bonkers at the best of times.
