Hot, sore top lip after using hair removal cream...Help?

After using sensitive hair removal cream, my top lip is now hot and inflamed. Have been splashing on cold water, but feels very tight and sore. Can i put on anything to soothe it? Tried and trusted methods only please!!!Hot, sore top lip after using hair removal cream...Help?
use pure Aloe - best if you can just break a shoot from a live Aloe plant, if not any hydro-cortisone cream will help soothe it as well. You can also put Tea Tree oil/cream on it...also, if you have any green tea bags - wet one %26amp; place it on your lip until you can get the Aloe or Tea Tree creams.

Do NOT put on any type of lotion or face cream. Nothing with oil in it. Your skin is experiencing a surface chemical burn from the hair removal cream. Adding oils/lotions will just cause the burn to deepen.





Get Aloe Vera. Either raw plant or a gel that you can find in the first aid section of a pharmacy.





If you get the plant, slice off the sharp barbs, split it down the middle and then squeeze the gel out. It will smell HORRIBLE, but will relieve the burn almost instantly. Keep applying it and ice to keep the irritation down.
Even though its for sensitive skin it doesnt mean that it should be used for your face.


Read all the warnings before you do it.


Try putting some ice on it
E45 Cream will help but dont use the removal cream there again, it will always become sore! I know because it happens to me .
