for me it does. it stops the irritation too. When I get my eyebrows waxed they are bumpy for 2 weeks. I have to reapply the cream everytime I wash my face to keep them unbumpy. I slather it on at night & put a thin layer on for during the day.

My friend got a facial the day before her wedding. It was her first one. Her skin turned so red & her pimples were giant. Luckily it calmed down by the next day. She covered it with makeup & you couldn't tell how crazy it had been the day before.

Definitly don't do anything new close to a big event.

So far, I've been washing with Dr. Bronner's Tea Tree Soap and then using Sea Breeze as my astringint. Then I follow up with Oil of Olay face moisturizer.

 

I'm going to try the diaper rash or cortizone. The bumps don't itch or anything, but they are red and inflamed. I NEED these to be GONE by tomorrow morning, because I DO NOT HAVE ANY EXTRA MONEY for retouching...........OMG....I wanna scream right now. You go to the salon to look "more beautiful" and you end up looking WORSE then you did before!!

I think sea breeze will just make it worse. it makes my pimples turn redder for a while. I would think moisturizing is key.

do you have photoshop & are you getting your images on a CD? I can show you how to retouch.

[PrecisePlans]

Yes, I do have photoshop, but I don't know how i will be getting the images. I think that she is setting up an online gallery for us for now. She is also going to be shooting our wedding in May, so I may not get these pictures until i order my album in May.

Ok, I have never heard of face threading?

[Nrvsbride]

Ok first of all stop putting stuff on your face. It is going to make it worse. All this stuff will just make it redder.

 

This is a normal reaction. Usually when you get waxing or threading and you get this redness with bumps it will start after the procedure and last until the entire day. Did you say you got it done today or yesterday? If you got it done yesterday you should be good to go for tomorrow. If you got it done today then they may still be there tomorrow. Sorry I don't mean to upset you but it usually takes a day to calm down.

 

I would apply the hydrocortizone that Morgan recommended. But don't put all this other stuff on your face b/c it is going to give you an adverse reaction (b/c you are mixing so much stuff together) and you will only make it worse. Apply ice if you want and then put some of the hydrocortizone.

 

Hopefully they will be gone by tomorrow. Also, try not to stress (I know easier said than done) b/c then you will just make it worse. Crying makes it erupt more to, so try to stay calm.

md ocr-

ive gotten my eyebrows and upper-lip done many a times... i also have clear skin and i too break out with little red bumps...

 

1. DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE... the oil and germs from your fingers will only make it worst

 

2. mine, usually clear out in 2-3 days, its just the way your body reacts because your skin is irratated...

 

3. dont stress, [i know, easier said than done] but time will only heal... unless you can find a dermotologist...

 

 

good luck tommorow, im sure its not as bad as you think and i know that you will look beautiful

You will need to find out if you are getting a high res cd of all your images. I paid extra to get a cd of all my wedding pictures so I could photoshop them, make photoprojects & make prints all I wanted. I actually didn't get any prints. You usually can't snag them from an online gallery. If you can they tend to be watermarked and low resolution.

Some photographers retouch all their photos. Others charge per picture.

it's when cotton thread is used to remove hair. It hurts like hell, but my eyebrows look lovely and the rest of my face looks like a damn cherry pie!
