I had a hot shower then used the Veet facial wax strips on my upper lip. My upper lip turned red then over night scabbed over. Now I know this was because my pours were open due to the hot shower. Anyway, now that the scab has gone my lip is incredibly dark and I have a line (scar) which goes diagonally under my nose to the corner of my mouth. It looks like I have a mustache and I am very insecure about it. Is there any gels, creams, or soap I could use to help with the darkness and scaring ?
