Vanity

I was feeling a bit icky today. I don't know why, but my face is breaking out, and I think I gained 2 lbs. over the weekend. I was feeling hairy, a bit like my friend Frida Kahlo here. Only, she was able to embrace her unibrow and "almost mustache". I personally despise body hair, so on a whim, at the gym I decided to get my eyebrows waxed. This is nothing unusual, however, I also opted for a lip wax. I just didn't want to look like this anymore.....

The problem is, I am allergic to the wax (I was told today) and so may wind up with a bunch of tiny pimples on my upper lip for the big family birthday bash we're throwing for Maddie on Saturday. If it gets bad, I may end up looking like a leper, but as I said, it was a whim. I don't want to look hairy, or diseased for that matter. It is a lose/lose situation.

Don't get me wrong, body hair is fine on other people. I just can't stand the upkeep myself.

Any advice on the hairy lip would be appreciated.
