What types of lighting reduce the appearance of blemishes?

A lot of people complain that fluorescent lighting (which just has a few monochromatic wavelengths) makes them less attractive. Bars and night clubs have low lighting because it hides imperfections and makes people look better. Is there something about blemishes that makes them reflect certain wavelengths of light better than healthy skin? Can LED light arrays be made with certain wavelengths that make different types of skin appear the same shade? What about filters on cameras?
