YES YOU CAN USE A PASTE MADE WITH KUPPAIMENI TURMERIC AND WATER FOR HAIR REMOVAL THIS IS A NATURAL AND MILD METHOD AND IS USUALLY SAFE FOR SKIN

MIX 1 TSP OF KUPPAIMENI TURMERIC WITH JUST ENOUGH WATER TO MAKE A THICK PASTE APPLY A THIN LAYER ON THE AREA WITH HAIR LET IT DRY FOR 10 TO 15 MINUTES THEN LIGHTLY RUB OR WIPE OFF WITH A DAMP CLOTH DO NOT SCRUB HARD AS TURMERIC CAN STAIN OR IRRITATE SKIN

LAYER YOU CAN APPLY A FEW DROPS OF ALMOND OIL OR COCONUT OIL TO SOOTHE THE SKIN AND REDUCE ANY REDNESS

APPLY 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK FOR A FEW WEEKS FOR BEST RESULTS DO A PATCH TEST ON SMALL AREA FIRST TO ENSURE NO IRRITATION AVOID SUN EXPOSURE ON THE AREA IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT IF HAIR GROWS THICK OR MULTIPLE STRANDS APPEAR CONSIDER AYURVEDIC INTERNAL SUPPORT LIKE TRIPHALA OR MANJISHTHA POWDER TO REDUCE EXCESS HAIR DUE TO VATA PITTA IMBALANCE

Yes you can use kuppaimeni + a pinch of turmeric + water safely

Just apply on that spot for 20 minutes, weekly 2 times then wash off with warm water It will not remove hair instantly but overtime it will weaken and slow the growth

If you feel burning or irritation then wash off immediately better do patch test before applying

Since the hair is little and recent this is ok to try

Hello 🙂

A little upper-lip hair on one side only is actually quite common and usually not a disease. It can happen due to:- - Natural facial hair pattern - Temporary hormonal fluctuation - Increased sensitivity of hair follicles on that side - Stress or recent weight / sleep changes

About using Kuppaimeni (Acalypha indica) + turmeric + water paste ✔️ Safe to use, but please understand this clearly:- - It will NOT permanently remove hair - It may slow hair growth slightly and make hair finer or lighter - Turmeric helps reduce thickness and inflammation

How to use safely - - Take fresh kuppaimeni leaves (or clean powder) - Mix with a pinch of turmeric + rose water (better than plain water for face) - Apply only on the hairy area, not whole lip - Leave for 10–15 minutes only - Gently rub and wash off - Use 2–3 times a week, not daily

Patch test is MUST- - Apply behind ear for 15 minutes → wait 24 hours - If no burning / redness → safe to use ⚠️ Important cautions ❌ Do NOT scrub hard ❌ Do NOT apply daily ❌ Stop if you feel burning or darkening

Better & safer options for upper-lip hair- - Threading (best & safest) - Face razor (no thickening myth – very safe) - Turmeric + besan mask (maintenance, not removal)

When to worry? If you notice: - Hair becoming thick, black, coarse - Hair growth on chin, jawline, chest - Irregular periods, acne, weight gain - Then hormonal evaluation may be needed. ✨✨✨✨✨ For now, your condition looks mild and normal, no need to panic 🌸
