I had what I called a blah look, like there was no life in my eyes . I looked at myself in the mirror and couldn't figure it out until my sister pointed it out one day. Then I was told," Wait until you hit 50!!" The facial hair thing for me didn't start until I was about 65. It isn"t bad, , but it's there. I just shave that little mustach when necessary, and also the peach fuzz ids clipped close with scisdsors. It doesn"t grow back dark and stiff like a man's does. I tried the creams, but it caused me to have a bad rash, so that was out! But isnt life great? And where else can I find so many "sisters" to laugh about growing old with? I wish we could throw a big party and spend time together. People would probably look at us and think we were a bunch of crazy old ladies !!
Carol, the Sallen Hansen cream really works and it has a little bottle of finishing cream to use after using the hair removal cream. I have a real problem with skin allergies and get rash's from everything. I use this and don't have a problem. It does get a little red if I get busy and leave it on a little too long but I use it at night before going to bed and when I get up there's nothing there. This must be a curse put on women for some reason. LOL
