Dear Nicciknows,
I am an actress and I have a big audition on Friday. I had some laser resurfacing done at my dermatologist last week and there are patches of peeling skin almost like scabs on my face. My normal foundation isn't cutting it. What can I use to cover it?
Thank you,
A Smooth Audition
Hi Ms. Smooth Audition,
Never fear, we'll get you all camouflaged for your audition. The product you need is Laura Geller's Spackle Trio ($30 at Sephora.com). Take the face Spackle and apply over the peeling areas, being careful not to blend or rub too much. This way you'll avoid stimulating the peeling. By gently pressing the Spackle onto the peeling/scabbing areas, you'll cover the texture and allow your foundation to sit on top rather then setting into the texture of your recent procedure. After you have applied a generous amount of Spackle to the areas, go ahead and follow with your foundation but still avoid blending or rubbing too much over those areas. That's all it takes! Remember that it will always be more noticeable to you then it is to anyone else.
Watch out Angelina and Charlize! Good luck and "break a leg" as they say!
Best,
Nicciknows
