I need some help.
BIL's wedding is on Friday (ugh) and I now have a swollen eye (right under it) that is slowly turning purple/blue. I normally use a CC cream but I don't think that will cover this. Also, any tips for making it not look like 1/2 my face is bigger than the other? lol
You need concealer. Heavy duty concealer. Can you get to a Sephora?
If I were trying to cover that I'd go with something light to also try to counteract the colors a little, set with powder (by gently pressing and rolling with a powder puff), then add a layer of concealer that matches your skin tone. All after applying foundation, so that you're not adding more than needed.
If you can get to Sephora, check out Make Up For Ever full cover concealer, Laura Mercier secret camouflage, Bobbi Brown corrector, Amazing Cosmetics amazing concealer. You might also want to get a sample of a foundation that you could use that day, because some of the newer foundations look fairly natural and provide really good coverage.
Oh! I just remembered what I used to use in HS. Maybelline stick concealer in white. You can only use a little bit, have to warm it up well and blend, and definitely have to top it with skin-tone-correct concealer, but it does help.
