How to apply the concealer to hide dark circles? Or again to hide skin blemishes? Whatever its use, the concealer is an indispensable beauty case product. Below we explain the main requirements in choosing the perfect concealer.
How to apply the concealer against dark circles
Ally of the best make-up artists, the concealer can be used in different ways and shades. The important thing is to choose the color or the appropriate texture. This is by no means simple, considering that the concealer exists in numerous shades.
For this reason, the first thing you need to do is buy a concealer there shade more suited to the tones of your complexion. In general, to cover your dark circles, especially in the case of people with particularly accentuated dark circles, you should avoid too light colors.
This is because the light shade on the “purplish” of their dark circles, it would end up accentuating them. For the more olive skins, with dark circles tending to dark and not red, it is therefore necessary to choose a concealer of a “greater” shade such as those of peach or orange tones. Also in this case, without ever exaggerating too much with colors that differ in an accentuated way from one’s complexion.
For those interested in using the concealer not only in an attempt to cover dark circles, but all over the face, the technique is another. The concealer is typically used all over the face to go to act on imperfections in order to hide them as much as possible. In this case, a shade that is as similar as possible to the complexion of your skin but more tending to light than the other shades of the concealer of your interest is sufficient.
How to apply the concealer all over the face
In many make-up artist tutorials you will surely have noticed how the concealer is also used for illuminate some areas of the face especially the area between the eyelid and the eyebrows. It is true, there are ad hoc illuminants that fulfill this function, but also in make-up you have to give vent to creativity. Furthermore, not always have all the suitable products at your disposal, in any case, therefore, one must be ready to make a virtue of necessity!
So, if you want to illuminate the eyelid area or define the contour of the eyebrows, we recommend a certainly clear concealer, more expensive than your complexion. Possibly the most illuminating of the make-up line you usually opt for.
Typically, for a very natural finish, and a use always on the whole face, all that remains is to use the same skin tone as the face. If, on the other hand, you want to apply it only on the eye contour, then it is better to opt for the shades indicated above.
The ideal texture for your own pelle
Concealers can be liquid, cream and powder. Liquid ones are suitable for more mature and dry skins and they are great for small imperfections. Cream concealers have a “heavier” texture which seems to be the privilege of those who have one mixed skin. Furthermore, cream correctors have a more effective coverage of the defect. Those in powder, on the other hand, are generally recommended for those who have the oily skin.
