AFTER attempting to wax her own face late at night, one woman was left devastated by the results.

Taking to her social media account, Olivia Joan issued a stark warning around waxing as she posted a clip of herself after doing the beauty treatment.

“I decided to wax my face and here’s how it went,” she wrote over the video.

Dressed in a black vest top with her brunette mane back in a ponytail, she appeared upset as she rubbed her eyes.

She then turned to the side to show the damage caused to her cheek, as it looked red and angry with an infection.

Explaining what happened, she told viewers: “I ended up with a bacterial infection!”

She then showed her other cheek before turning to her front to facepalm herself as she said: “Send help… It’s so bad.”

In the caption, TikTok user @oliviajoan18 added: “10/10 wouldn’t recommend waxing your own face at 10pm,” before adding the hashtags ‘waxing’, ‘demdoctor’, ‘ acne’ and ‘stupid’.

People were quick to comment on the post as one person wrote: “Telll me why I just did this sameee thing and my face is the exact same . I don’t even want to go outside”.

Another said: “Be careful you might need to go on antibiotics,” to which she replied: “I spoke to my dermatologist and he put me on antibiotics”.

“This just happened to me and I’ll never wax my face again omggg,” another person wrote.

Olivia replied: “Omggg it’s awful!i regre it 1000%”.

Others tried to send helpful suggestions on what to do the next time she wants to try a way to remove hair from her face.

“Laser hair removal bestie best decision I’ve ever made. Book it closer to winter bc that’s when places have sales & great deals,” one person wrote.

Another shared: “Do dermaplaning next time”.

While a third added: “Please try threading! But if you have the budget for it laser is the way to go.”
