You could just use some foundation thats a little darker than your normal skin color. also, you could try putting neosporin on it, or wash it with cold water. hope that helps! good luck 2morrow!

Use a gel or cream that has benzoyl peroxide to dry out pimples. You can find it at any drugstore...
Don't try "natural" remedies... they don't work. Skin might calm down, just wash it with a mild cleanser, oil-free moisturizer, and leave it.
In the future to prevent this, get a skincare regimen that works. Try products minimum 1 month to see if they work... or go see a dermatologist and they will assess your skin type and that's probably your best bet.

'Preparation H' and '1% Cortisone' creams are good for calming immediate redness.
I've also read that fluoride toothpaste is good on pimples, but it's got to be applied overnight.
Good luck in the music competition!

use eyedrops. you know how they get rid of redness in eyes? does the same for your face. then use concealer... dab a little bit on the spots until blended
