There's no way to cover em up love. I would suggest finding other ways to unleash your feelings, I use to be the same way, and its not going to fix anything. you're a beautiful girl, and there should be no reason at all for you to harm yourself.. Your thigh you can maybe wear longer shorts? and some bracelets to cover your wrist.. but as far as makeup goes, your going to be swimming so it'll just wash off.
If you're in the water most often then it should be harder for anyone to see.

@ciera they do

As for how to cover them up, I think its less important then what's actually going on, you can't treat something on the surface it has to be treated from the root deep inside, talk to someone you truly trust poor out your feelings and emotions to them, call hotlines or look for a counselor for help, life is hard we all have had our ups and downs your not alone, after every storme there is sunshine, keep your head up and look forward to a brighter day

Shorts, swim shirts, waterproof makeup

Please don't self harm, you are beautiful! There is no point to self harming when you are sad, it will just make things even sadder! Please, instead of making negative things even more negative, make them positive:) please, please, please, please stop!:)<3

I've been in the same boat as you love, nothing will cover the scars. I've had mine for over two years now and the looks I get from people, especially my parents and grandma breaks my heart. Seriously, stop before it's too late. Find other ways to deal with your emotions because let me tell you, this is one of my biggest regrets and I can't STAND watching someone else suffer the same thing. I couldn't save my skin so I hope I can save yours. So please stop. Maybe try some self tanner over the area. Preferably Sally Hansen.

Ok so apply generously (I forgot the name) but the dusty thing that is your skin color, then apply corrector and then repeat the first step. That's all I need and they disappear an 85-90%

Maybe you could wear like a wrap on your wrist and say you hurt it a bit. I've been there darling. Keep your head up<3.

Whisper its called pre wrap and you can use a heavy duty water proof foundation such as kat von d lock it tatto or Mac face and body and BTW your beautiful and seem like a great person so I hope you'll consider not self harming

Ah man. I recommend tight (like homemade string bracelets) for the wrists and just out a few bandaids on the thighs and if anyone asks just say you fell off you're bike or s/t. Sweetheart honestly it really saddens me to know you do this. Things always get better and if anybody tells you different then they aren't worth your time or your happiness. Don't surround yourself with toxic people I think you are beautiful and deserve the best happiness.
