makeup on fresh cuts is a bad idea. i know you know that, but i just wanted to point it out for others...
put your arm in a sling? though then you've got to make up something to explain that, and that would be a huge hassle.... i would just go with long sleeves myself

Fight for another day
|
you could put a bandage on it and say you strained a muscle or something other than that can you maybe get a lighter long sleeve top to wear

A long sleeve top would work, or a hoodie. I live in my hoodies anyway so no one ever questions it.

Long sleeve tops, cardigans, shirts open over t-shirts, hoodies and elbow length gloves work well it all depends on your style really. I wear long tops underneath most of my outfits. And the 'I sunburn easily' excuse work really well!

First, it's great you went 3 years! That is really amazing :) You're doing a wonderful job in recovering :)
Sometimes I just put a band-aid on a cut and if people ask, maybe say my cat scratched me, tripped and scraped my arm, or was cooking and got burnt. I really don't like telling stories like that, but it's kept me from getting so many strange looks :/
I really hope you're doing alright :) Send a PM if you want to talk
*hugs and love*
