I look like someone beat me up.I have a big fat bottom lip, a bloodshot eye and a huge bruise on my cheekbone, none related.The lip was from the minor surgery.I woke up with a bloodshot eye.I hit my cheek on a kitchen cabinet door.The looks my partner and I were getting at the airport.Still someone felt sorry for us as we got priority boarding and moved to front seats.

Pam I went to Disney World one time after painting with latex paint. My face was swollen and I had 2 black eyes. I really did think people were looking at my husband as if he were a monster. They didn’t give us better seats either! No more latex.

Are you allergic to latex paint?

Petra X It's all very minor, I just look terrible, but feel fine. But thank you all for your good wishes (and candle!)

Pam Didn’t know it at the time. Now I know. No latex for me.

Thank you but really I'm fine, my eye is still a bit bloodshot, my lips look like I want to be an influencer and the bruise has disappeared beneath concealer. I don't want to frighten the horses!

Steve M When they look at you like that, you should tell them "You should see the other guy!" :-)

I'm better now, thank you. One eye is a little bloodshot, the bruise is fading and my big lip is now a medium lip, so I'm going out and not scaring the horses (as my mother would say).
