HELP: how to prevent face irritation from waxing?

it's mostly my lip area that all of a sudden is getting so irritated. Even threading gives me a problem.

What can I do?

When I get home I clean the areas with witch hazel. It seems to help.

My place has a sensitive skin wax that I always ask for. Maybe you can find a place that also uses this type of wax.

Usually an aloe vera cream works for me.

I use neosporine when I come home.

I do threading and used to wax and tweeze. I find that with neosporine I get no bumps and redness goes away in 2 hours vs. 8+ hours.

I use baby oil. Seems to help a bit but I still get a bit red.
