Facial Hair Removal?

I've just been advised by someone (not onhere) that using hair removal cream on my face isn't really a good idea. What's the best thing to use that won't dry my skin out?

I would leave it (as there isn't that much and it's blonde) but it's quite itchy.

    I wax my upper lip (have a few fine, dark hairs that I will not tolerate lol) and found it to be the best removal technique - that and plucking, but plucking is practically unbearable pain wise, so waxing's quicker. I do it at night before I go to bed, so the redness goes away overnight. As long as I exfoliate and moisturise regularly, it's fine...

    You can get hair removal cream that is designed for your face, just put a bit of savlon on afterwards and theres no red mark or anything!
