How do you cover hickeys fast?
Cover the hickey with color-correcting cream first. Then, top off the blemish with a concealer that matches or is one shade later than your skin tone. Set the skin with powder as a finishing touch.
How can I make a hickey go away fast?
A hickey is essentially a bruise, and the coloring differs depending on the life cycle of healing it’s in, but you can color correct and conceal to cover it up. A fresh hickey has red or purple tones, which you can color correct with a green or yellow color correcting cream. Then, go in with a concealer that matches or is one shade lighter than your skin tone. Set the makeup with powder. If the hickey has progressed into a yellow/green/blue bruise, you will likely need a more peachy color corrector first, then the concealer and powder.
