I have a photo shoot on Friday. I just found some pimples on my forehead and a ton of other blemishes. I also have bags and dark circles under my eyes. I'm going to try and sleep more this week but I don't think it will work in time. I cannot wear make up during the shoot. Anyone have any home remedies on how to remove all this? Also does anyone have a recipe to making home made hair removal wax?

Try mixture of OTC Clean/Clear 10% Benzoperoxide with 2% Salyric (sp?) Acid for the pimples and blemishes. Don't scrub your face but wash prior to applying mix nightly. Use the salyric acid in the day because generally clear gel. Also for the dark circles try green tea bags w/caffeine to decrease puffiness and circles. Also OTC cream by Lancome works well.

Hair removal wax for body "legs and arms" you need 3-4 lemon, and 3 small cups of sugar and you mix it up on the stove and you keep moving them using big spoon. After it gets dark brown, you well put it on the counter "table", off course you should have the counter "or table" ready and on top of it news paper and spreads with a little bit of water, now go head and through softly the wax be careful and make sure you don't touch the wax it is very hot. You should now wait until it gets cool down, and then go head and divided it up and save it into small Ziploc bag, and save in the freezer, until you want to use it. You well take piece and keep moving it in your hand until it gets soft then you can apply it to your skin. I always use it, this is Arabic wax. Email me if you need any thing.
When you put it in the bag make sure the bag have some oil inside not a lot, just a little, it well help you when you use it.

There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water & stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath & let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K & Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

Hmmm, lets see. Pimples, blemishes, and dark circles. Is this photo shoot for Dog Lovers Weekly magazine by chance?

According to the Father in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", just "put some Windex on it."
If that doesn't work, there is no other "immediate skin fix"... Teenagers all over the world have been seeking that mythological creature for a millennium.

You can check out this Spot Touch (liquid form) in future. It will dry up the swollen or pimple area.

Ridiculously simple: to help prevent puffy morning eyes, always sleep on your back. Tummy sleeping will leave puffy eyes every time.
You're on your own for the rest.
