Beauty is "really" pain!

Beauty Waxing. I suddenly hate that word.

I bought this wax strip just for fun. I always wanted to try something that was advertised in a magazine, especially on fashion magazine. So I grabbed this wax box in the pharmacy, and I was thinking to try it on my upper lips.

YES, I have a thin moustache!!

When I reached home, I have second thought about using it. I read the directions over and over again, and chucked it under the dressing table. Another waste of money! God… its always been like this. I buy things, without thinking, then when I reached home, I will have second thought about it, and at the end, I would either throw it or keep it for I don’t know… some kind of souvenir!?

Anyway… last night, I was supposed to work out, but I cancelled it, as my best friend, which also my flat mate came back from Kuching. I thought I need to be with her as her father passed away a week ago. She looked gloomy but I know how tough she is. So I avoid talking about her late father and tried to distract her mind by telling her about, what else, work stuffs. Sya, was looking like she had million things trapped in her mind. I saw how sad her eyes were and how her lips trembled whenever she talked about her family.

So I got an idea, why don’t I ask her to do the waxing for me. I don’t know, maybe it could distract her mind a little bit. Maybe we both will laugh about it after I did it! I know it was a lame idea, but hey, .. its worth a try!

So there it was. I was right. Even before she pulls the god damn strip from my face, she was already laughing. I told her,

“ Didn’t you read the instruction? Cut the strip into small size and put it on my upper lips. Don’t put the whole thing like this!!” As I was saying that, the strip was literally covered my whole mouth!

She replied me with a giggle and kept asking me… are you ready? Are you. …Scccrraaap!

OUCH!!!!! My upper lips started to feel a burning sensation. I touched it, and I can feel the wax on my skin. I asked her, can you see any hair on the plastic? She looked at me and smile,

“No!”

“Damn you!” Then we laughed our ass out!

She told me, to just finish what we started, hmm…easy for you to say… you’re the one who do the pulling! But I straight away said, okay!

So, Sya cut the wax plastic into small size, matches the area that needed to be cleared. Every “scccraaaap” was the most painful moment for me, but surprisingly I can handle it very well. Then I was thinking about tattoo. Will the soreness be like this great?

After I did it, I felt very uncomfortable on the upper lips. I washed the wax off from my face and I felt my skin burning. Now, my mouth part looked like it had stuck in a bottle mouth.

Now… I swear…seriously I swear, I will just stick to threading!
