Don't put bleach on your face for goodness sake!

Have you tried that bio oil stuff everyone is raving about? I hear it works on scars som maybe it'll work on that too?

Failing that why not go to one of the beautician departments in big stores, they could at least recommend a decent concealer but someone like clinique might have something for it.

Just whatever you do, please just use the bleach to clean the loo!
be happy thats it just a little blemish as you put it, far worse people out there with scarred faces
Best advice I can give you bubbles to make sure that it does not get worse is to stay out of the sun.

Well, as Banjobabe suggests you should protect your face from the sun. But sunshine in moderation is good for us, so at least wear a moisturiser with very good sun protection factor - winter and summer alike.

I have found that 'Benefit' do the best concealer I have ever used. Fairly expensive, but well worth it.

China Doll mentions Bio Oil. It didn't do a thing for me, but I believe others have found it good.
Question Author
just had a thought, i do use st tropez fake tan on my face quite a lot and wonder if this could have brought it out more. i really do want the blemish to disappear for good so am not really wanting a concealer though a good idea for the meantime. anyone know of a treatment ie laser or a cream that will eventually erase it?
Fake tan will definitely darken blemishes and make them stand out more. It may be worth mentioning the blemish to your GP as any new blemish or one that has got worse is worth them having a look at. Although it doesn't sound as if it is anything serious.
I read recently that rubbing lemon juice into age spots make them fade quickly. It's worth a try and shouldn't damage your skin.
It might be an idea to have your gp look at it. A friend of mine had a 'blemish' and it turned out to be very nasty. Got it early though and after treatment has been given the all clear. Don't just assume its an age spot..
