I think I know what you mean. I've waxed my fluffy facial hair at the sides and my skin always looks different afterwards.
Make up applied in the area also looks odd. Foundation just won't stay put.
I have it threaded now much better

I have waxed my eyebrows and upper lip but they dont have white patches! Have tried covering up with make up but it doesnt stay on. Will try threading when the hair grows back. How did you cover up the white patches? Thanks

Is it where the sun has never been able to get to that skin as it's always been covered by hair?
I couldn't find anyway until hair grew back. It was very odd.

Hi Kim, my hair, although fair and downy still managed to get tanned on my face, including the sides. Sun just bleached the hair!

It could well be where you have waxed and you still have some facial hair and it's darker than you think. Try bleaching the rest of your facial hair and see if that helps x
