Default Scar/Tattoo Issues
I have a rather large scar on my left lower arm from a car accident and a tattoo on my upper shoulder that I would like to cover up. What do you suggest as the best way to do this without it getting all over my dress? Thanks for any help you may be able to give me!

Greetings Asya!
What I do for my brides who would like to cover up scars, tattoos, birthmarks, etc. are one of two things:

1) I have all the samples from Colortration foundations (www.colortration.com) which imparts a beautiful finish and becomes transfer resistant once it dries. It's by far the best "cover all" I have ever tried.

2) My second option would be to airbrush the area, then airbrush a sealant over it. (This would be your option if someone is doing your makeup).

If you have any more questions, we would be more than happy to answer them. Best of luck!

My friend has fair skin and wanted to cover her tattoo. She used one of those tattoo cover kits (i forgot the exact name) and she said it worked. I can try to find the name for you if youre interested. I think you can find it in the back section of any beauty magazine where all the ads are.
