    Basically I'm not quite ready to come out to my whole school yet, and last night me and my bf made out for like 30 minutes, needless to say I had a couple of hickeys on my neck. I've only ever had a few hickeys before and they were small, easy to hide, but these are pretty big. I've already dodged a few awkward conversations of classmates asking who it was. However, and older man came up to me at work tonight and said "looks like you had fun last night" which draws the line. These need to go, please help.

    Nothing makes them go away faster. A hickey is actually a burst blood vessel underneath the skin, and the bruising is the blood leaking out of the blood vessel. It only goes away when your body repairs the blood vessel, thus no more bruising because there's no more blood leaking out of it.

    Flesh colored makeup is the only thing I know of that can hide bigger ones.

    Yep make up.

    Get a green primer (cheap from Walmart or drug store) and then use a concealer that matches your skin. Get a blender to put it on.

    Won’t fully make it disappear, but it will make it so a lot of people will miss it.
