Help! I woke up in the morning to find a lovely mosquito had bitten me right on my cheek.. I really don't want it to leave a scar or red Mark on my face is there anything I could put on it... btw I have very sensitive skin so nothing harsh would be great :-) x thankyou x

It shouldn't scar as long as you don't scratch or pick at it. a green concealer will hide the redness as well (: I don't know of anything that makes mosquito bites heal faster tho, lol.

I had loads when I went on holiday. Do not scratch it even though it'll be hard not to. When you go to bed dab on some toothpaste out the tube on the bite and that should dry it up. During the day pop some Aloe Vera gel on it. Worked for me xx

If you have sensitive skin, don't use toothpaste. When it itches, dab a tiny bit of liquid soap on it. I use Palmolive, but regular hand soap will work too. It should go away within a couple days without any intervention.

I hate mosquito bites, I've had them pretty much everywhere. :/

Benadryl... Live in a swampy area where alligators our are neighbors and benadryl never failed.

Witch hazel works great on bites. soak a cotton swab in it then leave it on your bite for about 5 minutes. visine works good too. it removes the red from your eyes by constricting the blood vessels and giving them more oxygen and it does the same thing for pimples or bug bites.

Yeah I actually just realised I have an aloe Vera plant at home might have to give it a try ;-)

Aloe gel, lavender oil even honey all have wonderful natural antibacterial anti septic properties in but are calming for delicate skin :]
