Frittle-Faced

frittle (fritt'-ul) n. a temporary mark on the skin caused by the impression of a textured surface. [prob. inspired by the similar close patterning on the flower or butterfly called Frittilary, for its checkered markings, from Latin fritillus "a chess/checker board"]. Source: Archive of Cool Words

I better go to bed so I can wake up frittle-faced.
