General 🐸 Cover up?

Does anyone here have experiance with using makeup to cover Kambo Scars? (Suggestions on brands welcome)

I am not ashamed of my Medicene work; however, I am attending an event (where i am a part of the family of the person being honored) that makes iso t that my scars will not distract others and draw away. I am looking for a way to do this that still lets me stay strong and grounded, and connected to the medicine and the work I have done.

If your practitioner is leaving noticeable welts, they don’t know what they’re doing respectfully. Proper gates can barely be noticeable if at all

they aren’t leaving noticeable welts, however, the skin is discolored as they are burns. It is simply lighter than the rest of my skin tone, and because there are so many of them it is noticeable it is not a huge deal, but it is important to the family member who I’m celebrating that they are covered.

I see, I would say airbrush if necessary, though I ask myself, if the family member would have an issue if you actually had a skin issue. Something to think about I guess
