Has anyone here ever bleached their upper lip?

I realize this is more of a feminine thing, but I'm not sure what I should do about my moustache.
Even being years out of puberty I don't have enough facial hair to grow a beard, my upper lip has more hair but is still to thin to grow a moustache (not that I want facial hair).
Despite this even after a thorough shave my upper lip still looks dark (and it's the only part of my face that has this stubble) the effect of this is to make me look like that kid in jr high who had a wispy moustache.
It wouldn;t be so bad if the rest of my face had stubble, but I feel it makes me look young and immature.

I don't know, depends on how dark your skintone is. I've never liked this look on girls that's for sure, maybe try getting it waxed. What razor are you using?

+1. WTF? Bleaching because your stubble is too dark?

I'm at a loss, very much reminded, of the pimple on my hemorrhoid, thread.

Heh, yeah it's kinda silly.

I use a Mach 3. Really I'm just bad at explaining this, you know how even after a close, good shave you may not be able to feel any hair, but you can see it (the bottom of the folicle where it was cut off).
My problem is that on me that only appears on my upper lip.

Really, it's most liekly one of those little quirks one notices only on himself.

^^I was going to suggest the laser as well actually, you need a few treatments but the results are good (depending on the laser and color of hair and skin).
