Say byeee to your peach fuzz.
Over Your Facial Hair? Here’s How to Get Rid of It
I know you've heard it before but it bears repeating: Facial hair (and every other form of body hair) is completely natural. So if you don’t want to get rid of it, that’s totally fine! The decision to keep or remove your body hair is 100 percent up to you. Personally though, I'm on the pursuit of total hairlessness, and, yes, that includes facial hair removal. Like, IDK about you, but when I destroy every inch of peach fuzz on my face, my skin looks so much brighter and feels way smoother.
My never-ending quest to become a hairless human means that I’ve literally tested almost every form of facial hair removal out there (me and my wallet both wish I was joking). I genuinely know what works (and, uh, what doesn't), and I'm happy to report that there are so many at-home facial hair removal products that are affordable, quick, and super-easy to figure out. So, if you’re down to join me on this adventure, keep reading to peep the best facial hair removal creams, tools, and devices of all time.

Okay, so I know this looks like a Medieval torture device, but I swear that (1) it's not, and (2) it truly works to get rid of your facial hair. It's not that complicated to use: holding the metal handles, you bend and roll the coils over any unwanted hair, leaving behind silky-smooth skin. And since the coils are able to tweeze your peach fuzz from the root without irritating your skin, it's a great option for folks with sensitive skin.
