QuestionHello Griffin.
How are you?
Hope you can give me some ideas.
5 weeks ago, i got a burn by cigarette ash on my cheek, it is completely healed in one week, but it leave a burn mark, the size is about a little figure, and the color is bit red/darker than other skin around my face.it really depressed me in these 5 weeks.
and currently i am using bio-oil.so my questions are:
1. can i use foundation to cover it? the things i worry is the foundation will clog the pore, then make the burn mark worse or slow down the burn mark to fade away(i got chanel pro lumiere founfation and clinique makeup primier, is it ok i use these two)
2. is the bio-oil good for my burn mark to fade away, or what other products i can use for it?
many thanks
Answer I think after five weeks the scar is probably healed enough to wear foundation to cover it. Rio Skin Camoflauge and SmartCover are two of many make-up lines that are designed to cover scars. As far as the bio-oil goes I looked at their website and it looks like a good product to me, the vitamin a and e will help your skin repair, is seems to be designed for your problem. The chanel and clinique make up is probably fine in terms of not irritating the scar, however I am a fan of mineral cosmetics as they are healthier for the skin. Don't let your scar depress you, it will fade with time.
