scars
I have mad scars on my neck from when I was younger and I have been trying to get rid of them forever and nothing works (and when I say nothing all I really tried was mederma and covering them with foundations) but I found some article on yahoo with suggestions
SCARS
"I have a big scar above my eyebrow from a car accident when I was 16," says Gina Pieper, speaking both personally and professionally as the creative director for Empire Beauty Schools with nearly 100 locations.
Tool kit: Tinted moisturizer with SPF, concealer that matches your skin color, and setting powder.
Insider Tricks: Pieper first uses a brush to apply the moisturizer over her entire face. Next, using a smaller brush, she paints a concentrated dab of concealer directly onto the scar. "Some people apply the concealer first," she says, "but I do it afterward because otherwise the foundation can rub it off." To make sure the color is right-if it's lighter than your skin, it will stick out like a sore thumb-you can mix two shades if necessary. The last step is brushing a matte powder onto your face to take away the shine of the concealer. "The biggest tip is to avoid putting too much makeup on the scar," Pieper says. "You might even want to make eyes more dramatic or wear a brighter color lipstick to draw the attention away from that area."
Really what type of advice is this, concelar and a dramatic eye, seriously?
but I did like the self tanner for strech marks one, thats clever
