Yvette84 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I have this MONSTER hickey! I mean worse than anything I've ever seen!!! How do I get rid of it???????? I iced it and did the spoon thing and nothing helped. Neither did makeup. It's too dark. Any advice???? Link to comment
laboheme Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Well...moisturizer, then concealer blended into foundation...then more foundation, then powder to set it all... But you said that didn't work...so either you do the old turtleneck thing, or bust out the scarves. I remember when my ex decided to be evil like that, I had to wear scarves for quite a while...Thank goodness that I have quite a few silk ones, and I got many compliments on the creative ways in which I tied them. Things like that force you to be imaginative... Link to comment
ScreenagerX Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I remember being told when I was about 13 or so to use toothpaste, I never actually tried it so I can neither confirm nor deny. Anyone heard of that before? Link to comment
barbielovesmac Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 No more hickies always good advice. but it's obviously there, so try some concealer and lots of it!!! Try some powder on top of that .... Link to comment

melrich Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Yep.. toothpaste works. Link to comment

annie24 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 use a green-based concealer first. you can find them at the drug store, they are.... green concealers! (green is the opposite color of red, so it should mute out the color) then use foundation of your skin color, and then powder. and then put an ultra-chic scarf around your neck! Link to comment
Siriana Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Turtleneck sweather. Green concealer + skin couloured concealer. But skip all the torture and just wear the turtle neck for about 3 days. Link to comment
Yvette84 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Yep.. toothpaste works. No it doesn't. I tried it last night! Link to comment

confused25 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Hmmm aren't we a lil toooo old for hickies? lol That's so high schoolish! When that happened to me, I had to put on tons of concealer and then wore a turtleneck for the whole week! Link to comment
Lady Bugg Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Hmmmmm I suppose it depends WHERE the hickey is placed Yvette haha... I would suggest a more concealable place if you enjoy them Link to comment

It just happens when you are sucking on someones neck. It feels great, it has nothing to do with age. But yes ladybug....I guess we'll need to find a new hidden place for him to put them!

jsx730 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I just never understood the whole hicky thing... Link to comment
Chele Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Get one on the other side to even it out? Don't worry, it should fade in a few days. Link to comment
Alezia Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I remember being told when I was about 13 or so to use toothpaste, I never actually tried it so I can neither confirm nor deny. Anyone heard of that before? I heard that too and apparently it works but I never tried it... just sounds strange to me.. in doubt.. use a green concealer and then apply a foundation of your exact tint over it. The green will cover the red to perfection (wheel of color).. the only problem is you might look made of clorophil if you dont do it properly hehe Link to comment
barbielovesmac Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 It feels sooo good though you like how a hickey feels?? that's weird. Link to comment
Yvette84 Posted December 7, 2006 Author Share Posted December 7, 2006 you like how a hickey feels?? that's weird. not the hickey itself, but the sucking/bitting part. lol Link to comment
