    Anyone know a good way to get rid of hickeys? My boyfriend gave me one as a hilarious joke, looked fine at the time but it's coming up quite red. I'm going to have to kill him/get him back, but firstly I need to get rid of this thing!!!!!

    Wear a Scarf

    Failing that, I always find women are able to put a little concealer over the 'blemish' to disguise it

    put zovirax on it makes it look like ur trying to get rid of a spot or something. use cream or powder to make it look like it's a skin complaint.

    Unfortunately theres no quick fix for hickeys... if its 'fresh' [lol] put an icepack on it and it'll ease the blood coming to the surface causing the bruise. Otherwise keep applying toothpaste or arnica and it should be gone in a few days.
    Luckily for you its cold out so you can get away with wearing a scarf if you want to hide it:p

    Was it your partner who posted here a few weeks ago wondering how to give someone a hickey? :) Perfect time of year to put on a scarf alright. Anything cold will help constrict the blood vessels and keep it from getting any bigger anyway.
