TOP 5 TIPS FOR USING CONCEALER
. Always apply concealer after foundation - until you have a base, you don't know exactly what you need to camouflage.
What's more, applying foundation over concealer can easily rub it off.
The concealer must be the same shade as your foundation - you may even have to buy two shades and mix them on your hand before you apply them.
If you're using stick concealers, you may find that using a little eye cream will help mix the two shades together.
. If you're not wearing foundation, concealer must still match your skin tone.
Using too light a shade on dark circles (as many women do) will actually make them more noticeable, and a light shade on a spot will highlight its shape.
. Never use a magnifying mirror when you apply concealer. It's tempting, but you'll put on too much.
. You've probably seen green concealers for sale. They claim to reduce redness.
Avoid them, they are almost impossible to use without giving the skin a grey cast. If you have high color, a foundation with yellow undertones will cancel out the redness just as well.
