Egg white has a gelatin-like texture, which acts as an excellent peel-off mask. When applied to the upper lip, it may dislodge the hair from its follicles. This can help you remove fragile strands effortlessly. However, this remedy may not work as effectively as other upper lip hair removal techniques.
