I have a huge bruise on my thigh that needs covering up. The make-up I have doesn't seem to cover it. I have till the weekend ot make it "disappear." Any ideas?

    I use a fake tanning lotion on my legs and it seems to do the trick?

    edit for the name: Fake Bake Flawless

    Pants... I should have been more specific.

    I am performing this weekend and my costumes are not pants.

    I'm with the people suggesting pants, but if you're going to be wearing a swimsuit or no pants :wink: , try rubbing a bit of toothpaste on the bruise. It's a trick I picked up years ago for hickeys.

    Glamoflauge by Hard Candy. It can cover tattoos.

    Also, spray tan.

    Oh! And Sally Hansen airbrush legs! This one is basically a spray makeup for your legs.

    The only one that you won't have to worry about it rubbing off is the spray tan.

    I second glamoflauge, forgot about that it works wonders too.

    Spray tan. A. Good concealer. Can you wear nude or skin colored pantyhose with your costume?

    She's a dancer so she may need water resistant concealer due to sweating.

    Mary Kay concealer comes in skin tones and yellow and is waterproof. I once tried a makeover on my Sister in Law who wanted to wash off the foundation thinking another one would be a better match. We cracked up when under her eyes the concealer was still there but the foundation had washed off. You'd need to find a local lady to get you some right away.

    Or at the store make sure you get a water resistant one. I agree with the suggestion of a green color, or a yellow color might work too. Ours is heavy, get a heavy one. Then if you went over that with a bronzer type leg cream or self tanner with color in it I think you'd have good coverage.

    If you are the main attraction or don't have a bunch of other girls in your outfit maybe you could put a sparkle tattoo over it like the ones they sell at Ziba. Might distract enough. Hope any of these suggestions helped. Happy Dancing!:flowerforyou:

    Um... no not a stripper, although I have the utmost respect for any person who do that on a pole. Ladies and men alike.

    Yes! Thank you all! A mash up of your wonderful ideas managed to cover my bruise enough! Now to hope it fades a little before Friday night!

    A good size temporary tattoo??

    Ooops .. jusdt read you're a dancer, company might
    frown on any tats. Hmmm I've read b4 rubbing inside
    of banana peel helps get bruises to heal sooner.
