Is it normal for your skin to burn after taking off facial hair removal cream?
I use Nair Facial Hair Removal Cream once in a while on my upper lip. When I take it off after about 7-8 minutes, it burns. Is that normal or am I having an allergic reaction to it? It tends to still burn ’till the next day. If you have any tips to stop the burning, please do tell. 
THANKS!
the burning happens to me when i used nair on my legs, but it was because i left it on for too long.
try keeping it on for less time.
the burning could stop.
it also might be because your skin is really sensitive.
try a special hair removal for sensitive facial skin.

Nair is horrible! Even if you applied it to your legs it would burn! The ingredients are so strong, it’s scary. If you insist on using Nair (verses Tweezers or laser hair removal) Try shortening your time. You say you wait 7-8 minutes? Try 4 minutes, then check.
As a matter of fact, I think the bottle recommends not going over 5min. You could be burning your skin, literally. Cut you time in half.

nair is not for facial air…. nair is for tougher skin. use something honey based / organic for your face.
