7. "Painless" Hair Removal

Quick tip: If you're removing hair, it's going to be painful. Plucking, waxing, shaving, lasers - all of them hurt.

8. Pore Strips

Sometimes you're lucky, but they never get all the junk out. You can leave it on til it's paper-mache but it still won't be 100% effective.
