    Hi Evie- Don't freak out. Is this the first time using Veet? There is a powerful bleaching agent in Veet. You are allergic to it. If you think there is a tiny hole in a spot where you used this, you may have injured the skin. I would put some anti-bacterial ointment on the spot where the small hole is, maybe even some ice on the upper lip. Do not, cover with any makeup unless it is hypo- allergenic (ALMAY PRODUCTS) but I would not use anything at all until the redness goes away. You can also check with your local Pharmacy Technician like at Walgreens, and see what they recommend. Stay away from all bleaching for now. In the future, try a different milder brand like JOLEN. Take care of yourself. Apply ice to your upper lip to help with the burning. I am sorry this happened to you.
