since i was born ive had a huge birth mark on my neck. it hasnt really bothered me until this year. it makes me so self-conscious. its covered up pretty well when my hairs down, but you can still see it a little. but i do sports all year and i have to put my hair up and it just makes me so self-conscious like everyones staring at me. a few people have asked me about it and its so embarassing. i never wear my hair up for school or dances. only sports because i absolutely have to. i was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to get rid of it besides surgery because i know my parents wont go for that. thanks.
What we found was called Dermablend, my daughter uses the make up and the concealor in the little jar. It takes a little experimentation to get the shade right, but they will usually let you try on samples.

(when i think its a mole) i want it removed but my parents won't go for that till later maybe. I would say if you can't get rid of it, enjoy it. its who you are! screw anyone that doesnt like it or thinks its wierd. just think it makes u Unique. and Unique is good. then if that doesnt work...think of all the things that are gorgeous or beautiful about you. pretty soon you'll forget it. good luck and tell me if i helped [ FoReVerHelpful2U's advice column | Ask FoReVerHelpful2U A Question ]
mn731 answered Sunday February 26 2006, 7:34 pm: I have no idea..I mean, you could try cover-up..? But other than that, I don't think there's anyway to get rid of it besides surgery (which obviously isn't an option for you.) Just accept it..I mean I have a birthmark on my left hand, right shoulder, etc..and yeah sometimes it makes me self-conscious, but I realize that there's nothing I can do about it. So I think the best thing for you to do is accept it. If anyone asks, tell them that it's a birthmark..Infact, in some countries, if you have a birthmark on certain areas, you're considered lucky! But IDDDK..I'm sure you're beautiful with or without birthmark! Hope I helped. [ mn731's advice column | Ask mn731 A Question ]

If people ask about it and make fun of you about it.. they must be self absorbed or self concious! Don't what people say influence what you think of yourself!
