Unwanted hair on a woman's face? Yep! Actually, it's common for women to have what's commonly referred to as "peach fuzz" on certain parts of their face, according to Healthline.

Natural Mask:

Begin by massaging a layer of coconut oil (get here) into your skin. Cover all of your target areas. Mix a little water with your flour. You want the mixture to form a paste, so add the water slowly until you get the right texture. Apply the mixture downwards (in the direction of hair growth) and let it dry for about 10 to 15 minutes. Once it's mostly dry, rub upwards and out.
Rinse with plain water. Close your pores using tea or toner and apply moisturizer.
Oatmeal Scrub
Another alternative, is this oatmeal scrub from Home Remedies for Life. For this scrub, you'll want to grind 1/2 teaspoon of oatmeal until coarse.
