How to cover self harm scars?

I self harm and i need to cover my cuts/scars, any ideas?


And no, i dont cut for attention or anything.|||I can%26#039;t tell you much. Makeup does little to harm new cuts. If they are on your wrist close to your hand you could wear wristbands, and get a couple of very thin long sleeved T-shirts to wear under your regular short sleeve shirts (assuming they are on your arms.)





For special occasions, you can buy heavy duty foundation to keep your skin looking even, but make sure it is a paler shade for your arms.





As for the answerers who will see this and freak out at me for giving %26#039;advice%26#039;, you should know that having people you don%26#039;t want seeing your scars see them only makes things worse.





For more advice and a great community to talk to, go to Psyke.org|||Depends on where they are located...the obvious is clothing...but when its warmer, you can try this makeup they sell on QVC its called prescriptives and it gives you full coverage without it looking...cakey...so I would recommend that...and it also contains spf 15 so the sun won%26#039;t damage and make your scars more noticeable.


Hope this helps!|||I understand that you probably cut for that release of internal pain that you may be feeling but there are better ways to let it out and it%26#039;s about finding ways to cope.





Please seek counseling and hopefully you can learn better ways to relieve your pain|||well from my personal experience, it all depends on where exactly it is. if its that noticeable, then i would normally put on foundation. just make sure its the right skin tone for you. =) and make sure you clean the cutts FIRST|||Hello kitty bandaid.
