Help! Bike accident before wedding reception- best makeup products to hide scarring/discoloration?
Hi all, I hope this is okay to post here, I am just really in need of advice and this seemed like the best fit.
I was in a cycling accident last weekend where I broke my nose, cheekbone and part of my upper jaw. I also went home with some nasty road rash on my face (pictured - this is from today, 1 week post-accident). Everything is healing fine, but sadly the timing is terrible- my wedding reception is this Sunday. I will specify that we are already married and did the whole professional makeup artist/professional photos thing earlier this summer- this is just a party with no photographer, so I wasn’t planning on going all out with styling again.
Do any of you talented folks have recommendations for products that will best help even out the discoloration on my face from road rash? I’m hoping the scabbing below and on my nose will heal within the next few days so I can cover those too.
I would be so grateful for any help- I have been using minimal coverage foundation/tinted moisturizers for years but I don’t think those will cut it for this situation. I am also open to any skincare advice any of you might have regarding scarring and getting these splotches to fade out.
Thank you so much in advance!
