Dermablend

We went to Macy's to pick up some dermablend and give it a try. Dr. Pandya thought it would be a good temporary fix for special occasions.

They have a special formula for leg and body. It basically makeup that's meant to last for a day or two. The pictures on the web and their brochures show really good results so we were hopeful.

Macy's wasn't doing Dermablend any favors today. The lady that tried to help us had no idea what she was talking about and obviously hadn't been trained on the products. We ended up spending about an hour there, trying each of the shades on separate areas to see what looked best. We settled on Caramel and got the Cool Beige setting powder. It didn't camoflauge the lesions, but did tint them enough to make them less noticeable. We were pretty happy until we got outside and saw her leg in the sunlight.

I haven't uploaded the pictures, but will do that tomorrow and post them.

I ordered DyODerm skin dye and will also post results from that when we get it. I've heard that it can tint a little orange, but I guess it depends on individual skin tones.

The day after the first treatment the lesions look pretty much the same.
