How To Fake A Hickey

To fake a hickey, I just take a small makeup sponge and lightly dab a bit of red and purple lipstick for that bruised look. Placing it on my neck for a few seconds does the trick! If I need something more convincing, a bit of lip balm helps blend it in. Just make sure it’s not too dark and blends well with my natural skin tone. This way, I get that hickey vibe without any of the actual commitment. Easy peasy!

Creating a believable hickey requires a bit of finesse. I usually mix a tiny dab of foundation with a deep red lip stain; this gives me a customizable base color. Applying some pressure with a rounded object gives it a more realistic look, like using the bottom of a spoon for a few seconds. After that, I apply the color gently with my fingers—this softens the edges for a more natural appearance. To top it off, a fine layer of setting spray helps it stay in place throughout the day. If anyone seems suspicious, I tell them it was an intense game of truth or dare. It's fun, and if I’m asked again, it'll make a good story. Just a pinch of creativity, and voilà! The fake hickey becomes my little secret, and I can laugh about it later when I’ve had my fun. Better yet, it might lead to silly discussions and some bonding moments. Just ensure you remove it gently at the end of the day to avoid skin irritation. A little makeup remover will do just fine to wipe it away. All in all, this method is playful and a great way to create some lighthearted drama without any real consequences.
