15 Best Facial Hair Removal Products to Get Rid of Unwanted Hair Fast

This is a cult-favorite facial hair remover for a few reasons. The lightweight, battery-powered device is small enough to tote around with you wherever you go. It also requires no set-up or potential mess, so many women report making this part of their regular morning routine as a way to smooth their skin before applying makeup. The spinning technology removes both terminal hairs and peach fuzz.

Epilators are electric devices that remove hair directly from the root for clean and precise hair removal. This rechargeable, cordless model has nine rotating tweezers and a smart light design to reveal and get rid of even the shortest, finest hairs. The product description recommends using it on the upper lip or chin, as well as the underarms, bikini line, knees, or ankles.

If you’re not into the ouch factor of wax, a depilatory cream may be a good option for you. “Depilatories work by dissolving hair from the root, so they can be irritating, but this is a classic, without additional fragrances that can cause irritation or allergies,” says Jessie Cheung M.D., board-certified dermatologist and founder of Cheung Aesthetics & Wellness. This pick is also among the top-rated in its category and works in just five minutes.

This FDA-cleared device taps Diode Laser Technology to deliver hair follicle-zapping energy that stops hair growth. Just note that it “may feel slightly uncomfortable and the device can only be used on terminal (darker) hairs,” says Dr. Gohara. It may also not be safe for darker skin tones—check with the company before buying and using to ensure the best results.

We know what you’re thinking, shave your face?! Well, actually, face shaving is basically dermaplaning. For quick and easy touch-ups, “this razor lets you perform dermaplaning safely, removing unwanted hair as well as dead skin to reveal fresh, glowing skin at a very reasonable price,” says Dr. Cheung. You’ll get a bit of an exfoliation treatment while you’re at it, leaving skin smooth and fuzz-free. But, if you don’t have a steady hand, it’s best to consult your doctor.

Another favorite of Dr. Cheung, this dermaplaning exfoliation tool will whisk hairs away (along with dead skin cells). You can get it done at a spa or your dermatologist’s office, but if you do so regularly, then an at-home device, like this one from Dermaflash, will be more cost-effective in the end. Bonus: Your skin will glow and feel baby soft.

For more of a spa experience—without having to make an appointment—go for this wax kit. The chamomile-infused oil works double duty to help gently remove hair from your face (upper lip, chin, cheeks, and eyebrows) as well as the body.

If the idea of completely removing your facial hair freaks you out at first, test the waters with a trimmer. It will only temporarily remove the fuzz but it’s a good way to see where your comfort levels lie. This $20 trimmer is gentle on the face, has a pivoting head to follow the natural curves of your face, and is battery-operated for easy use.

If you prefer a hair removal cream that does not come with a strong scent, you’ll love this pick. Its formula is infused with good-for-you skincare ingredients like aloe vera (to soothe redness) and papaya fruit extract to add moisture.

This cheeky little tin is filled with wax strips perfectly suited for your upper lip. Totally convenient to use, you can avoid the typical mess from applying wax, too. All you have to do is warm up the strip with your hands, place it where it needs to go, and pull.

If you notice a one-off hair where it shouldn’t be, you have Dr. Gohara’s blessing to pluck it with a tweezer. Don’t dig for the hair (that will leave a mark)—only go for it if you can pull it cleanly. These slanted tweezers are classics for a reason: The tool is really sturdy and is an ace at grabbing hairs and not letting them go until they’re out.

With over 4,800 five-star global ratings on Amazon, you can rest assured that this hair remover will leave you with a smooth feeling complexion. It’s designed with a broad, pivoting head, ergonomic handles, and a unique micro-grip tweezer technology. “I have been using this tool for five years now, and it is the best for facial peach fuzz,” wrote one Amazon customer. “I have a lot of white peach fuzz on my cheeks and chin and this is the best because the head grabs the fine little hairs.”

“I use this to shave my face and I’ve never gotten irritated or even red after multiple passes over my sideburns,” wrote another satisfied reviewer. The tool features double rotating blades, an eyebrow trimmer, and a detachable head, making it super easy to clean.

These dermaplaning tools are a classic in the facial hair removal aisle. They’re so easy to use and painless. Plus, they even gently exfoliate your skin in the process. Just carefully stroke the razor edge along your skin and your hair will quickly lift off.

We know, it looks a bit scary, but plenty of Amazon reviewers agree that you won’t be disappointed with the results. This tool is designed to remove facial hair from the roots naturally without damaging the skin. You just have to bend it at an angle that works for you, while gliding it across your face.
