Camouflage Cream or Skin Camouflage (Medical Tattooing) can be your chance to blend in.

Searching for “Skin Camouflage London” or “Skin Camouflage Surrey”? If you have a visible difference that concerns you and causes you anxiety, life can be very difficult. Being stared at, regularly being asked personal and distressing questions is an experience that can impact your confidence, self-esteem and well-being.

Your visual difference is a part of your identity, and what makes you unique. However, if it’s causing you anguish, camouflage cream or skin camouflage (Medical Tattooing) can be a solution. It can help to reduce or camouflage the visibility of the difference in skin tone, which in turn will lessen the glances by others, and reduce the amount you notice it.

Camouflage cream is specifically designed to help cover discolouration of burns, scars, birthmarks and pigmentation. It is fully waterproof, transference proof and can be applied daily without any problem to the skin. It can last two to three days on the torso and limbs, and up to 24 hours on the face. There is a vast range of colours and products available, and colours can change when applied to different skin types.

Take a look at Veil Cover Cream ‘Rae Denman Range’. These were designed with the mid-range skin tones in mind, which tend to be the colours that are most difficult to find a perfect match in the shops today.

Taking 100 patients and looking at their colouring in detail including which tones were the most common within that range, 11 colours were picked and finely blended to create the new ‘Rae Denman Range’ of International colours.

Camouflage Cream is suitable for:

• Scars & Stretch marks – must be fully healed
• Birthmarks including Port Wine Stains
• Rosacea & acne
• Psoriasis
• Bruises & post-surgical discolouration
• Vitiligo
• Age spots & thread veins

Pigmentation can be partially or fully concealed. Port Wine Stains for example, may be part of your identity, but camouflage can be used to tone the colour down rather than covering it up completely.

Working with the Katie Piper Foundation

The Katie Piper Foundation's aim is to have a world where scars do not limit a person's function, social inclusion or sense of well being. They help people with burns and scars to reconnect with their lives and their communities.

I first started working with the Katie Piper Foundation workshops, where a group of professional makeup artists, hairdressers, nail artists and Camouflage practitioners would all give practical advice and hands on techniques to help people recovering from burns. Knowledge that had taken years to obtain through experience and practice was freely given in a comfortable atmosphere where understanding, non judgement, empathy and fun could be mixed to create a safe, relaxed atmosphere for burn survivors.

I collaborated with The Katie Piper Foundation and The Telegraph to create a time-lapse video of myself applying Camouflage and Makeup on a burns survivor demonstrating the positive effects this has on her physical and mental wellbeing.
