Hi,
I bruise easily so know what you mean and it’s in the 90s here in Florida too. Use the opposite colors of the bruise to hide it. I use a yellow, concealer on a fresh purple bruise and a green concealer when it’s red. Then blend in some makeup extending beyond the bruise. When it starts to fade and get yellow , my regular skin tone concealer and a dab of makeup seems to cover it although sometimes a little coral lipstick mixed in with the makeup seems to hide it too. Depends on how fussy I am to hide it. My skin is fair. I use a tanning cream a lot since I try to avoid, the sun as much as I can and that helps also.

I very often wear loose 3/4 or even long sleeve tops in the summer.....don’t find it any hotter than short sleeve as long as it’s a cottony or linen type material.
And I figure it’s keeping the sun off and preventing age spots.

Regards from Mary in sunny and hot Florida
