How to I cover-up a bruise (black eye)?

I had an accident this weekend. Walking down some icy stairs with my son, I slipped and fell and accidently pulled him down with me, resulting in him landing on top of me. His head hit me square on the nose, causing a nose bleed and now bruising under my left eye (not to mention the injury the stairs caused to my back). I'm at work now and am getting quite the stares (ha, no pun). I don't really want to or think I should have to tell my story five million times....I'd just rather avoid it all together. Anybody have any ideas on how to conceal this shiner?

use makeup! it works with my hickies.. lolz..

put a neck brace on.or maybe a arm brace.
