Probably low iron in your system, I’d get a suplement and start taking it daily! workin man
Wax has a special ingredient that actually slightly removes the tan from your skin and exfoliates dead skin cells. That ingredient is commonly known as lemon.
If you make your wax at home, just leave out the lemon.
But, if you get done at the salon, well, after you do it a couple of times, there won’t be a difference when you look.
Meanwhile, just cover it up with a foundation. I’d recommend Covergirl. But don’t slather on the foundation right after waxing, it will irritate the skin. Wait at least 4 hours in between. xoxoxo
it could be just irritated from the waxing. wait a few days and if it doesnt come back to normal see a skin doctor or something. pinkprincessb
Haha you probly ripped off the layer of skin that was tanned there and now you’re seeing your natural skin tone. Dont worry about it. Itll even out. Just cover it with makeup right now and eventually your whole face should be the same. alexa♥jane
Do you use a face tanner? Maybe the wax strip took off some tanned skin (fake or real). Use some face scrub and peroxide to lighten the rest of your skin, so it matches. In the mean time, use a foundation color a shade lighter than your skin. Mel
you ripped off the top layer of skin. now the un tanned skin is showing up..it will go away in a couple of days dav m
When you waxed you took the hair off, the hair that was protecting your lip, even from the sun, so your face is actually darker than your face. use a foundation but you may want to tan your face. itll even out nicki
