How to hide acne


“Yes, and I had pimples so badly it used to make me so shy. I used not to look at myself. I’d hide my face in the dark, I wouldn’t want to look in the mirror and my father teased me and I just hated it and I cried everyday.”- Michael Jackson.
YES! Even MJ had pimple dilemmas. Acne is the bane of all adulthood. Everyone gets acne to a certain degree. One may get just a couple of pimples while the other may be unfairly deluged with a face full of unsightly pustules. If you have had a rather tough time battling a severe case of acne, you undoubtedly display the badge of honor more commonly known as Pockmarks to prove it.
Pimples are a scourge. They are the most unwelcome guests that arrive during the night attacking you in the sleep. Sometimes the attack continues in the middle of the day and you don’t realize even after you have said good afternoon to an office full of people. You go in the bathroom and it is then that you realize you were out in public with such an insipid look. Discover how to hide those culprits causing a chaos on your face.
Get those make up weapons out:
You will only need three make-up weapons to hide your acne; A concealer, foundation and a finishing powder.
Here is some advice – Do not buy cheap make-up. You should use make-up from reputed brands only. Some of the examples are Clinique and LancĂ´me. Be sure to buy a color that matches your skin tone well. The key to success is to pair this with oil-free makeup.
Turn into an “Internaholic”
Anytime you get near a wired Internet connection, start researching treatments and scouring acne forums –become painfully obsessed where your whole life is orbited around your acne.  Devote all of your weekends and evenings to researching acne treatments on the net, in online forums and even in the library.
Go lady gaga?
“I don’t think I could live without hair, makeup and styling, let alone be the performer I am. I am a glamour girl through and through. I believe in the glamorous life and I live one.”- Lady Gaga
Cake your face up with layers and layers of makeup. Use ounces of creams, shadows’ and shades and concealers to cover those pesky pimples.
Urine Facial Therapy to the rescue
Urine Therapy or Urotherapy is an alternative medicinal practice that’s been going on for many years and is more prominently observed in Asian countries like India and China. Considering the effectiveness and treatment of acne from the roots, this therapy is being widely accepted in the western world as well.
Even the esteemed leader, Gandhi, drank his own urine. But as an acne treatment, you don’t have to gulp down your own golden fluid. You just need to splash it on your face or soak a cotton ball and wipe it on your skin like a toner; preferably after you wash your face before you sleep at night, and leave it on until you wake up the following day. Yes, you will smell like duh, as expected, but the smell wears off as it dries.
