African American Weddings

Okay, my last post today. I promise. Tattoos?

I have a colored (red crab) tattoo. When I tried on my dress at the store there was no hiding it. I am hoping when they alter the dress it will cut across my bust high enough to cover it. Now for the question. The tattoo cover up make up seems to be for caucasians. Does anyone know of a good cover up for us?

    I was looking for a cover up too when I got married the first time and you are right they do not make one for women of color it seemed. I had to use a little dab of my own makeup to apply to the top part of the tattoo to keep it from showing. It worked out ok because it was not hot and it didn't run plus I changed immediately into another dress after the ceremony. But I will check online for you and see what we come up with.

    For my MOH's wedding she had huge bridal party and a lot of us had tattoos and we all wore dermablend.  And we were all different shades :-)  I was just on the dermablend website and they had cover up for all complexions.  Take a look at their website.  I know they sell it at Macy's but I'm not sure where else.
