Also, if your going to the beach, and your self-conscious about letting your family see (understandable), than use a non water soluable light foundation (that blends with your skin). Mederma is quite expensive (20 bucks or so)...but as far as i can tell, it worked , otherwise if your just worried about the quick fix, foundation would be my safest bet.
