Stop being so nosy
I went last night to get my eyebrows waxed. As she was alcohol-wiping my brows, she asked “Is there anything else you need waxed?” I told her just my brows. As she finished up, she said, “Oh honey, let me just clean up your lip…once you get over 25 you really need to take care of that…” Of course, what was I supposed to say. So I let her at it, unbeknownst to me that it would include putting wax up my nose and ripping out my nose hairs “so they don’t show when you smile.”
Before leaving, she slopped a glob of Ponds cold cream on my brows and upper lip and handed me a tissue. It made me feel like I was leaving one of those Oriental Spas that you see along the highway.
