Ditch The Thread: How To Keep Upper Lips Clean Naturally

Every girl likes thick and luscious hair growth unless it is over the forehead, eyebrows and upper lips. While hair growth on these body parts is completely natural, most individuals prefer to keep these areas groomed. For that, you don’t necessarily have to go through the pain of threading every two weeks. Luckily, there are some alternative methods to keep your upper lips hair-free without the need for threading. 

How To Keep Upper Lips Clean Without Threading?

Sugar Waxing

Some people may prefer the traditional sugar waxing to save themselves from a trip to the salon every now and then. 

Method: 

• Add 1 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of water in a saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
• Heat until the mixture becomes as thick as honey.
• Turn off the heat and let it cool for 30 minutes. 
• Use a wooden stick to spread the mixture on your upper lips.
• Place a cotton waxing strip over the mixture, hold it for a few seconds, then pull off quickly in the opposite direction of your hair growth.

Ancient sugar waxing is generally less painful than regular waxing.
