I used boots facial hair removing cream on my upper lip two weeks ago. I now have lots of little spots coming and going on my top lip (quite painful as they are getting yellow heads on). Any suggestions to help clear this problem up. Im guessing that I left the cream on too long and irratated my follicles!! Bit embarrassed to go to the docs but wonder if I need an antibiotic as this started 6 days ago and is now at its worst. No smutty tashy remarks please!!
Did the spots appear immediately? Or did they come up later, when the hair was trying grow through again. Do you need to use a mildly abrasive exfoliating scrub??? Clear the skin on debris to let the hair grow through again.
You need to wait but could you not bleach next time?
without seeing it, it sounds like the hair growing through is irritating your skin. You need to cleanse and exfoliate, and moisturise with something soothing.
if youre still having problems on monday, you could ask for some fucibet cream from the doctor. It contains a steroid (anti-inflammatory) and an antibiotic. Its pretty effective though.
i did reply boxtops you must have missed it on another thread
thanks for asking boxtops. He.s my stepson. He.s all sorted!!! His dad went to cumbria with him. He.s just in the process of choosing his accommodation. He will get quite a bit of help but will have to pay some of it back!! Also my 18 yrs old is waiting to find out if he is going to be kept on by our town football team...he,ll find out this friday!!
