Concealer

WHAT IT DOES

The name says it all. Concealers hide imperfections on your face or body. There are concealers that hide anything, from scars to tattoos, but the most common use is for lightening dark under-eye circles. The product should have a creamy texture for easy blending, and the shade should always be lighter than your skin tone to create the brightening effect.

QUICK TIPS

- Concealer should be one or two shades lighter than your skin
- don't use concealer to cover blemishes. The correct color for lightening dark circles will be too light to cover your pimple. It would make it stick out instead.
- Use fingertips to press in the concealer. Do not rub. 

HOW TO USE IT

You can wear concealer without foundation, but you can't wear foundation without concealer. Using a brush or your finger, apply the concealer under your eyes starting at the inner corner of the eye. Cover the entire area below your lashes, and then blend by using your finger to press in the concealer. Layer with loose powder/compact powder to lock in the concealer.
