Peach Fuzz Is a Thing When You're Over 40. Here's How to Get Rid of It

Sugaring
Sugaring Often lumped in with waxing, the two techniques are very different. "Sugaring resembles waxing in terms of the process, but the sugaring gel is made by melting sugar, water and lemon juice to create a honey-like consistency. It's sticky enough to remove the hair, but not as sticky as wax where it's also removing the top layers of your skin," explains Tummala. This makes it both less painful, and less likely to cause redness or irritation, always a good thing when dealing with your complexion. The one potential drawback: Because it isn't super sticky, it may take more than one pass to completely de-fuzz an area.
