is it okay to cover up open cuts and scrapes with makeup? I had an accident today and i really don't know how else to cover up the scrapes than with heavy makeup. It's either that or shocking ppl with the gruesome condition of my face. Will makeup just irritate the scrapes and hinder the healing process? plz reply as soon as possible..i would greatly appreciate it. thank u everyone |

Use Aloe Vera cream to heal the wound and prevent it from leaving a scar.

If the cut is deep then don't apply makeup or you will risk infection. If it is not deep go ahead and put some makeup on. It will make you feel better as you go about your day. Make sure that you wash your makeup off really good at night before bed. |

I didn't know you can use neosporin on your face? But hey, if it's working, i'm happy for you.
