    If you do not want to remove hair, but desire to make hair on your face less visible, you can do it with facial hair bleach. Facial hair bleach does not remove facial hairs, but simply make them less visible. If you do not have strong face hair, or you are bored with removing facial hair every X days, it may be a solution.

    The best way to remove female facial hair is also through natural remedies. An effective face mask to prevent growth of facial hair is made by combining lemon, water and sugar. The paste may be applied to the face in the direction of hair growth and left on for about ten minutes. Turmeric works as a natural bleaching agent and a paste made with turmeric powder and milk is beneficial for lightening facial hair growth. A mixture of honey and lemon juice may also be used to prevent growth of female facial hair.

    For those who want to reduce the hair growth on their face, turmeric again comes to the rescue. Regular washing with turmeric lessens facial hair growth notably.

    Apply a mixture of besan and haldi (turmeric) with a little water, to her face. When it dries, gently rub off. This will remove excessive facial hair. This is not a permanent remedy, but it removes hair without encouraging excessive growth.

    Try herbal supplements. Kalo has been shown to reduce hair growth. It is available in both pill and liquid form. You can find it in most homeopathic or natural foods stores.

    Use Kalo. Available in most health stores, Kalo is an herbal supplement that naturally slows hair growth. Kalo is available in lotion and cream form. Rub a quarter-sized amount on the area daily for best results. If used regularly, it will prevent some hair follicles from producing new hair.

Dark circles around your eyes. How unsightly they look and even your best dress and layers of make-up sometimes does not quite succeed in concealing them! Blame it on your genes or your lifestyle, but, you cannot deny the fact that these are a blot on your beauty . And they become more prominent as you age. Let’s just debunk some of the myths as well as unearth some of the facts about the causes of these ‘ panda eyes ’.   Dark circles under eyes usually are temporary and not a medical concern.

When your nose is congested, veins that usually drain from your eyes into your nose become widened (dilated) and darker.
