I’m going to a posh work do tonight.

I have a giant spot on my chin. One of those ones that has been squeezed (oops) and overnight has gone from normal spot to blood blister looking 🤦‍♀️

And solid

HELP I how to I cover this - concealer just makes it stand out like a crusty red cornflake. I leave in two hours.

Can you get those stick-on patches where you are? They sort of suck out the gunk and dry it out, and apparently you can put make up over them. I live in China, but I buy them in our equivalent to Superdrug.

Grind up an aspirin, mix it to a paste with a drop or two of water, apply thickly to spot and leave for as long as you can- it should help bring the swelling down. Wipe off gently. Apply make up as though spot was not there then layer on more foundation by dabbing just on the spot. Then just try not to touch!

Ooh I’ll go an have a look. Currently it’s hideous and a plaster would be less offensive!

Agree with @Aethelthryth with the foundation on top of normal make up. Less is more if you can. Then spray your face with hairspray from a distance to keep it in place, and whatever you do don't touch!!!!!
