Toothpaste

Squeeze it if possible and then liberally apply toothpaste.

Works a treat (and peeling the dried toothpaste off at the end is very satisfying for a pervert like me Grin )

TCP!

Agree with TCP suggestion.

I recently made a thread about covering a squeezed spot with make up and how hard it is to set foundation over it when it is weeping. I discovered if I apply a man's styptic pencil over the squeezed spot it immediately seals the area and dries up blood and ooze instantly and foundation or concealer can be applied over the top. And the blemish doesn't ooze through.

Gross, I know.

No no no toothpaste. Most will just irritate the skin and make it worse. Anything antiseptic. Cheapo from the supermarket is fine.

Sunday what on earth is a styptic pencil?!

Sudocrem.works every time.

lucysmam · 03/10/2013 09:57

oooh, I don't want to do that rooty, it's red enough as it is.

Only antiseptic in the house is Savlon, would that do it?

No Sudocrem either
