  • So I actually have really bad acne scars. I've found that lemon juice lifts them a bit and lightens the skin to balance out the skin tone.

    Take her to one of the Benefit counters (Boots, Debenhams, John Lewis). They have lovely make up and lovely young girls doing it. If you explain she wants something light for a daytime wedding then I'm sure they'll help. You can usually make an appointment in advance. It's fairly pricey but lovely stuff.

    Meanwhile, keep rubbing in the Bio Oil, but that's a longer term thing.
  • I went to the Benefit counter too, I was looking for prom make-up to cover up my acne, they have some great products and they're really friendly

    You can get camouflage make-up on prescription, you might even be able to buy it, I think it's called Dermacolor. It can cover up anything on the skin.
