Why am I embarrassed? No reason. Vivien Send a noteboard - 28/12/2011 07:14:07 PM

I'm going to use it primarily on my underarms.


Why? The truth is that I'm also using it on facial hair. I'm hesitant to admit that because it's not something you talk about, definitely not something I ever talk about with other people who are not sufficiently close female friends. In addition, this is online so I'm sure anyone reading this has an image of me covered in stubble. Any time women shaving faces is mentioned on tv it's some combination of parody/humor/horror. If anyone actually does it, unless she's convinced it's strictly for exfoliation it's a dirty shameful little secret.

No it does not grow back thicker and I don't have any discernible stubble. Facial hair stays thin, it's just as thin and soft when it's a millimeter as when it's a centimeter long (unless it's not thin to begin with) and it grows back very slowly. Other women call their facial hair "peach fuzz". It's just that my fuzz is darker than usual and my skin is very light so it's kind of visible in its natural state and I prefer to shave it occasionally. A whole lot better than plucking, waxing, bleaching, putting some irritating cream on it, etc. Without the "fuzz", it's easier to apply sunscreen in an even layer. There- that was my public service announcement.

Did you get your egg separator? Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 04:38:04 PM 1147 Views
I did! Nate - 27/12/2011 05:08:36 PM 1236 Views
Oh. Well it's probably for the best then. Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 05:17:44 PM 1044 Views
Ha! Just make sure you wash your eggs before cracking them. Vivien - 27/12/2011 05:33:52 PM 1108 Views
Use caution when washing eggs... Avendesora - 27/12/2011 08:50:37 PM 1190 Views
What? Why would you wash an egg? I've never heard of this. *NM* Tim - 27/12/2011 11:33:57 PM 667 Views
This is news to me too. Nate - 28/12/2011 12:30:00 AM 1172 Views
Ha, don't listen to me, I know nothing about this. Vivien - 28/12/2011 01:36:34 AM 1101 Views
Aha. That makes sense. Nate - 28/12/2011 05:26:47 AM 1179 Views
That's a relief. You can't eat raw egg in this country anyway, so I don't need to change any habits. Tim - 28/12/2011 10:37:47 AM 1041 Views
Is there a law? Nate - 28/12/2011 03:29:39 PM 1108 Views
What I mean is that everybody considers it unsafe to eat raw eggs. Tim - 28/12/2011 06:37:17 PM 1059 Views
I didn't know that. Nate - 28/12/2011 07:54:37 PM 1137 Views
It is suggested in the US that you cook the yolk to solid too. Avendesora - 30/12/2011 11:58:10 AM 1011 Views
That sounds ridiculously over-cautious to me. Tim - 30/12/2011 05:48:56 PM 1083 Views
