I was waxing my eyebrows and didnt realise it was so hot and burt my forhead.
Is there anyway to prevent it blistering?
I have a freezie on it right now because I dont have ice.
Here's a picture:(

Just because its on your face I would call a hospital or doctor, Its taken off a layer of skin so its defiantly worth a call instead of leaving it, Dont put on any cream or oils before you call them.

My naighbour is a nurse so I asked her she said just keep it clean and dont pick at it when it scabs. She also said maybe get some anti scarring cream.
It's still just red (for now) but alot more red.
Thank goodness I have bangs to cover it up.

If it's hurting, put some aloe gel on the spot like you would for a sunburn. Works wonders! ;)

If you've got some Bacitracin or Neosporin, it'll keep it from getting infected. Do make sure it doesn't get sunburnt! A Band-Aid might look dorky, but it could spare you a permanent scar or worse.
