Correct use of concealer
1. When applying concealer, it is best not to use sweeping makeup, just use your fingertips. This will make it easier for you to control your strength, and the temperature of your fingers will make the concealer more skin-friendly and help to create a more natural makeup.
2. When covering dark circles, you should choose orange concealer and gently push it with your ring finger at the fundus, taking into account the inner and outer corners of your eyes. Then, sponge the liquid foundation on your face to avoid your eyes. This can completely cover the dark circles and eliminate facial defects.
The skin around eyes and lips is very delicate. When applying concealer, you must first apply eye cream and lipstick, and then apply concealer to moisturize the eyes and lips, otherwise the eyes and lips will become very dry and eventually form dry lines, leading to premature aging of the skin.
4. To create a fresh and natural nude makeup effect, when using concealer, you can mix concealer and liquid foundation in the palm of your hand, apply it to your face, and then set the makeup with crushed powder. Don't use powder puff, or it will make the makeup look thicker.
If there is a large area of black class on the face, concealer will be a very particular thing. Concealer should blend with your skin, choose the concealer closest to your skin color, apply it in the darkest place, push it away with your fingers, and finally fix your makeup with crushed powder.
6. Be sure to pay attention to how to use it. The correct order of use is after foundation and before powder or honey powder. After applying the foundation, look in the mirror to see where the flaws on your face have not been covered, then gently apply it with concealer, and finally fix the makeup with powder cake or honey powder, so that the concealer and foundation can be completely integrated, otherwise traces will easily appear.
7. Choose the color according to your own situation. As far as we know, concealer with different colors has different parts and effects. For example, to deal with dark circles, it is best to choose an orange concealer; For acne and red skin, the concealer with green tone has been proved to be the most effective; When you need to lighten the stain, you should choose a concealer with a color number close to the skin color, which can not only cover the stain, but also naturally blend with the skin color; Blue concealer is the best magic weapon for yellow-faced woman.
8. Too much at once. When most people use concealer, they will worry that the concealer is insufficient, and excessive use will lead to pigmentation. Our suggestion is to apply a small amount to your defects and then apply another layer, so that you can cover them layer by layer. The pause time is to let the concealer stick to the face to prevent wear.
9. It is wrong to use the same concealer for every part. Because the color of each part of the face needs to be slightly different. Peach concealer is best for dark circles, because it can eliminate blue shadows. A concealer with a green tone can neutralize red (acne and blemishes). Use it as your first layer, and then cover it with concealer suitable for your skin color. Yellow concealer powder is most suitable for the skin color at night and can be applied on a large area.
10. Didn't take advantage of many of its advantages. Concealer can be used not only to cover blemishes and dark circles, but also for many purposes, as follows:
Concealer can be applied not only to dark circles, but also to cheeks to brighten eyes.
② You can use a flat brush head with a little concealer to repair the wrong eyeliner.
③ Apply it to the corner of eyes, middle part of upper eyelid and brow bone to make eye makeup more natural.
(4) Applying concealer to the outer edge of lips as lip line will make lip makeup more fashionable and prevent the mouth from reddening.
⑤ Gently brush a little concealer on the outer edge of eyebrows to make them more stereoscopic.
⑥ A shallow layer of concealer on the eyelid can make the eye makeup last longer and not fall off.

Human fingers are actually the best makeup tools. The natural temperature of fingers can make concealer stick to the skin and spread evenly. If you are really not used to applying makeup to your fingers, at least choose a miniature makeup brush when applying concealer.

Concealer with different colors has different effects on different parts. For example, to deal with dark circles, it is best to choose an orange concealer; For acne and red skin, the concealer with green tone has been proved to be the most effective; When you need to lighten the stain, you should choose a concealer with a color number close to the skin color, which can not only cover the stain, but also naturally blend with the skin color; Blue concealer is the best magic weapon for yellow-faced woman.
Step 4 cover up wrinkles with concealer
All kinds of wrinkles and fine lines on the face are traces of years that we can't resist. If even the foundation can't cover them, then the only thing we can count on in the end is concealer. Fortunately, concealer does have this ability. After applying makeup cream to the base makeup, you can use concealer to fade the wrinkles one by one before applying foundation. Although this violates the normal use order of concealer, it is really effective for covering wrinkles, but only if the skin has enough moisture.
5. Give full play to the maximum effect of concealer
In the workshop, there is a unique way to maximize the efficacy of concealer, which is to mix concealer with other products. For example, if we want to cover dark circles, we can mix a small amount of concealer and eye cream, and then apply it around the eyes and corners of the mouth, which can well fade the shadow of the face and make the makeup look more natural and healthy.
Finally, I want to remind everyone that when buying concealer, you must choose a concealer with light texture, so that it can better blend with foundation and skin and keep the makeup lasting and fresh.
6, master the use of concealer skills
(1) Apply concealer after using liquid foundation. This order cannot be reversed.
(2) Don't use white concealer. That will only highlight your shortcomings.
(3) Don't apply the cream too thick. Besides being unnatural, the result will make the skin look dry.
(4) Try to use cream-like concealer products around the eyes. Because the eye skin is very delicate, it is best not to use a hard pen concealer, otherwise it will easily lead to fine lines in the eyes.
(5) If there is no concealer around, you can use a lighter foundation instead. In fact, this is also the law when choosing concealer products. Concealer products lighter than foundation are best for you.
(6) To make transparent makeup, mix concealer and liquid foundation before use. Then brush loose powder to make the makeup natural and transparent. If you use loose powder on a puff, it will look like a heavy makeup.
(7) Green tone products are the most effective for acne. Red and swollen acne is the most difficult to cover, even professional makeup artists will be especially careful in this link. Green tone products have proved to be the most effective products to cover acne.
(8) Avoid applying concealer on eyelids, which will make eye shadow oily and dirty. If the eye skin itself is very dry, you should apply moisturizing eye cream before applying concealer to prevent excessive dry lines.
(9) The best tool for concealer is finger. Because the strength is relatively uniform when using, and there is temperature, it will make the concealer stick to the skin more closely. If you really don't like to use your hands, you can choose a thin, pointed makeup brush, preferably made of man-made fiber instead of natural brown hair.
(10), it is best to choose the concealer with orange tone to deal with dark circles. Aim the concealer at the position of dark circles, and gently push the concealer around with your ring finger. Then use a sponge to evenly spread the daily liquid foundation on the whole face. Don't push when you get to the eyes, but press gently. When covering dark circles, don't forget the inner corner of the eye and the outer corner of the eye, because these two parts are the most serious places for dark circles, but they are also the most easily overlooked places.
