I have something to hide.. do you?
We all have something to hide whether you are dealing with lines,wrinkles,dark under eye circles, spots, blemishes,scars, pigmentation ect. Concealer should be your bff in hiding this little imperfections so you can achieve a flawless look.
Choosing the right concealer can be a bit overwhelming since concealers come in different textures (liquid,cream,powder).Foundation should be a bit lighter then your foundation (remember your foundation should match your skin almost exactly), if you go too light you might end up looking like a panda...I'm guilty i did that once.. I took my sister, so always make sure you test the color, if you go to Sephora you can test before you buy which I strongly recommend since the best concealer depends on different factors such as your skin type, the specific area and what your looking to conceal. concealer offers more then just camouflage. some are infused with antioxidants, anti-bacterial ingredients to help blemishes ect..
So choosing the right one is very important.
Here are a few more tips:
- Always apply a primer, specially if you have dry skin since it has a tendency of grabbing makeup, so it might make the concealed areas stand out.
- apply the concealer by patting onto the problem area and slowly build up the desired coverage layer by layer.
- For a long lasting finish apply a translucent powder.
-Highlighter pens are not concealers! Never use a highlighter pen alone on dark under-eye circles because it will do just that highlight the problem!.
