I had to share this most exciting news with you all.
1 week out from mine and The Geord's engagement party, I discovered a pimple on my chin. Being the idiot I am, I of course squeezed it. It looked OK and was certainly cover-able, but I wasn't convinced it was going away.
After many a beverage that night, once I got home, I decided to squeeze some more and more and more, only to wake up with a mess the size of a 5c piece on my chin. A mess that not even giant amounts of concealer could cover.
I know you're all probably thinking "Oh I bet it wasn't that bad", but I am not exaggerating. This thing was no longer a pimple, but more like a giant cold sore.
In my desperation, I called the only person I knew who'd be able to give me some sort of cure. Caroline.
She advised to LEAVE IT ALONE, go to the pharmacy and get some nappy rash cream STAT. The zinc ingredient within the cream aids the healing process, while keeping it moist and therefore not allowing it to scab. She told me to blob it on at night as it's impossible to rub in for under makeup/day time usage.
This wouldn't do. I needed to speed this process up. Thankfully my bosses are aware of my vanity issues and accepted the fact that for 2 days I was going to work with a blob of nappy rash cream on my chin. In fact, in the end we all became so used to seeing it there, I even went shopping with it on.
So after 3 days of nappy rash creaming it up, I am happy to say, I shall be attending my engagement party PIMPLE FREE!!!!! The cream worked absolute wonders and has left no sign of a scab, merely a red mark where the pimple was, which can easily be covered with makeup.
I've said it before and I will say it again and again. I LOVE YOU CAROLINE.
