- "That's no beauty spell, that's a Stinging Jinx! Don't worry, the swelling will go down shortly."
- —Someone reassuring a victim[src]
The Stinging Jinx[2], also known as the Stinging Hex[3] (incantation unknown) is a dark charm that can be used to sting the victim's flesh, producing a red brand like a scorch mark[3] and causing swelling[1]. The affected flesh feels tight, swollen and puffy as though the victim has suffered an allergic reaction, and if used on the face the eyes are reduced to narrow slits[1].
