hair on the upper lip
Hair that grows on the space between your nose and your mouth, or a style of this hair.

someone's [adjective] moustache
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse “moustache” with “beard”. A moustache is only the hair on the upper lip, while a beard is the hair on the cheeks, chin, and sometimes the neck. Another common issue is spelling: British English uses “moustache”, while American English usually uses “mustache”. Both words are pronounced the same.
