Freckles and moles

sammi18 · 08-17-2009, 05:34 AM

I have freckles and moles on my face...it makes me very self concious and i dont even want to get photos with my boyfriend, i make him delete them or i get really upset. Any good foundations for this type of stuff or ways to reduce appearence?

I also have freckles. I love them. I don't think you have anything to be self concious about, i think freckles are beautiful and they make you who you are!
But even so, if you are really bothered by them do basic things like staying out of the sun and wearing lots of sunblock on your face when you do have to go in it as the sun will bring out the freckles more.
I don't wear foundation as it used to give me bad skin so can't really help on that front i'm afraid.
Also, with regards to the moles, have you ever considered getting them removed? I'm not saying thats something you should do but if they are really affecting you badly then maybe that would be something to think about? One of my close friends had a few moles on her face and she had them removed no problem.

Laser treatments can kill freckles, I think, but they are expensive and won't keep them from coming back. Camouflage should help to hide them...maybe do a goodle search on camouflage and freckles. But hey- I think freckles are so beautiful!!!

I think freckles are cute too. I have a bunch on my face (although they're a lot lighter than they used to be). I even have a dark one near the corner of my mouth so I'll NEVER need to get a Monroe piercing haha.

I would say if they bug you that much, go see a dermatologist and ask if there's anything you can do. You can usually get a referral for that from your PCP. I'm gonna get on for a mole on my stomach. It's not unsightly or anything but I hate it and it's right where the jeans hit it, and my doctor gave me a referral no problem.

I agree freckles and moles are super cute

I know a girl who has a mole on her left cheek. She always never thought it was anything special until I told her one day,ya know that's actually really sexy. I used to call her mole a kissing target lol. I have one near my right eye.Someone told me I should highlight it but I keep forgetting too. It's a cute look.

I would suggest that you see your regular Primary care physician and see what he/she suggests. I had a mole on my back that really irritated me so my doctor cut it off in his office although it left a spot. Now that I am pregnant moles are seemly pop up on my face and neck. I hate it and hopefully they will disappear after I give birth.
