I started off this morning using a facial hair remover product. (Oh come on. It isn't TMI. All us brunettes do it.) I have used said facial hair remover product regularly for the last 20 years or so.
Applied it for 8 minutes as per usual.
Felt all tingly, like it's working.
Removed it with a damp Kleenex and ... Ow! It burns! It burns!
(WTF??)
Put on the "post removal skin soothing cream" and ... it still burns!! Yipes!
I admire my look in the mirror. OK, sure, my upper lip is hair free, but you sort of don't notice that as you are distracted by the redness and swelling.
I look at the package insert which cheerfully suggests that, if irritation occurs, I am to remove the product immediately (that ship has already sailed, friend), apply a cold compress and seek medical attention.
Am now typing one-handed while holding a cold compress to my face.
Yesterday, my mother asked me, "Have you ever had a day where everything you tried to do went wrong?" I might just.
