its sort of blue/purple - i've tried a heavy peach one which i thought would help but it shows through. Luckily my hair covers it mainly but my poor husband is horrified in case someone thinks he did it - bad time planning by me thats for sure!!!

I would ice it, take ibuprofen for the inflammation and oral arnica. Agree that colour correction is the way to go. I live in Aus. Cheap company called LA Girl does great ones you can mix with regular concealer or foundation. Depending on YOUR skin tone, I would get a peach shade (pale pink if you are very fair or orange if you are very dark complexioned). This will help tone down the blue/grey, deep parts of the bruise. If you have redness, go for a green shade. (Mauve if fair…) These are the products I am talking about. They are made for all skin tones and you can get them at lots of different retailers.
