10 tips for perfect concealer that makeup novices must learn

1. The best tool for applying concealer is your fingers

Because the force is more even and there is temperature when using it, it will make the concealer stick closer to the skin. If you really don't like using your hands, you can choose a thin and pointed makeup brush, preferably one with synthetic fibers rather than natural brown hair.

2. For dark circles, it is best to choose an orange-toned concealer

Apply concealer to the dark circles and use your ring finger to gently spread the concealer around. Use a sponge to evenly apply daily foundation to the entire face. When you reach the eye circles, do not push or rub it, but press lightly to spread it evenly. When covering dark circles, don't forget the inner and outer corners of the eyes, because these two areas are where dark circles are most serious, but they are also the most easily overlooked.

3. Products with a green tint are most effective for acne

Red and swollen acne is the most difficult to cover, and even the most professional makeup artists will be particularly careful in this regard. Products with a green tint have been shown to be the most effective in covering acne.

4. If you don’t have concealer products on hand, you can use a foundation that is 2 shades lighter than your foundation instead.

In fact, this is also the rule when choosing concealer products. A concealer that is 2 shades lighter than your foundation is best for you.

5. Avoid applying concealer on your eyelids, as it will make your eyeshadow look oily and dirty.

If the skin around your eyes is very dry, you should apply a more moisturizing eye cream before applying concealer to prevent the appearance of too many dry lines.

6. Apply concealer before foundation

This order cannot be reversed.

7. Don’t use concealer that is too white:

That will only make your flaws more prominent.

8. Don’t apply concealer too thickly:

This not only looks unnatural, but also makes the skin look dry.

9. Try to use cream concealer around your eyes:

Since the skin around the eyes is very delicate, it is best not to use pen-shaped concealer products with a harder texture, otherwise it will easily cause fine lines around the eyes.

10. If you want a transparent makeup, mix the concealer on your hands with the liquid foundation before using:

Then apply loose powder, so that the makeup looks natural and transparent. If you use a powder puff to apply loose powder, it will look like the makeup is heavier.
