Unhappy Needing Advice!!!!

ok...got a quick question...
i am getting married in 30 days (oh my goodness that seems soon) and unfortunately my "sideburns" are major obvious. i have been using vaniqua but not super consistently and i look like i have a 5 o'clock shadow all the time. i use clinique cover up and when i am tan it looks pretty good. i would be VERY disturbed if it showed up in my pictures. doesn't anyone know of a VERY VERY VERY good coverup???
Thanks!
ashley

I know this might not sound so nice...and I haven`t tried it.....but I had an idea and thought I`d share it.....has anyone tried mascara? Have looked on net and you can get white mascara...and other colours...I was just wondering if it would work on the short grow back under another make up????? worth a try???before the big day???

Just an idea

good luck

I've seen cover ups at big department stores that are supposed to be used by people with big scars or port wine marks. They also have some for the legs (to cover spider veins). Dermablend is one such product (I'm not affiliated with them, and I've never used the stuff, but I've seen it in the stores). Do a web search for it (or for "Scar Cover Up". I added the "scar" in there because cover ups that are made to cover scars are more heavy duty than regular make up). DermaColor is another product (I did the web search and came up with the Dermablend (http://www.dermablend.com/) as well as this http://www.substance.com/makeup/msea...544344,00.html). I know that you don't have scars, but the coverup might work for other discolorations.
In any case, I hope it's a happy day and I know that you'll be beautiful. Be relaxed and your joy will show through in your eyes. Congratulations!
Violet

sorry to say this I don't think makeup will cover hair, it doesn't deposit the pigment evenly - what about bleaching it? I like Sally Hansen for face.

hair removal cream? waxing? try it now to be sure your skin doesn't react.

Have you tried MAGIC? Many cysters on here have raved about it stating that it removed all the hair and lasted for a least a day or more.

Here's that post . . .

MAGIC!!!!

D'oh! Maureen, I thought she wanted help with the shadow left after shaving. Sorry about that!
I've actually been known to pluck some of the more wirey sideburn hairs... Like waxing only more slow.
