Just came back from the beauty salon. Got my nails done as well my eyebrows, lip and chin. Well I have to be some place in an hour and a half and my face is all red and puffy. Is there a trick to make that go away quickly?

Any body have and tips?

Bag of peas and incredible concealer. Worth a shot.

But... chances are it won't go away in time. Sorry. Good luck and have fun where ever you are going.

try the cold compresses as previously stated, even though I doubt it will work 100% but will reduce redness and swelling. In future allot more time in between flowerforyou

its a antihistamine, you can buy it over the counter here. i always use it after having my eye brows done, else they stay red and irritating.
