How to Use Pro Concealer on Face?

Published in Makeup Application 2 mins read

To use pro concealer effectively, apply it strategically and blend well, remembering that a little goes a long way.

Here's a breakdown:

Steps for Using Pro Concealer

  1. Prep Your Skin: Start with a clean, moisturized face. This provides a smooth base for the concealer.

  2. Choose the Right Shade: Select a concealer shade that is one to two shades lighter than your skin tone for highlighting, or a shade that matches your skin tone for covering blemishes.

  3. Application for Dark Circles: Apply a tiny amount of concealer under the eyes, focusing on the darkest areas. Use a small brush or your finger to gently pat the concealer in, avoiding dragging, which can irritate the delicate under-eye area. Remember, too much concealer can look cakey.

  4. Application for Blemishes: Dab a small amount of concealer directly onto the blemish. Use a small brush or your finger to blend the edges, ensuring the blemish is covered and the concealer is seamless with your skin.

  5. Application for Highlighting: To highlight, apply a concealer that is lighter than your skin tone to the high points of your face, such as the bridge of your nose, center of your forehead, and cupid's bow. Blend well.

  6. Blending is Key: Use a damp makeup sponge, brush, or your fingertips to gently blend the concealer into your skin. Make sure there are no harsh lines or edges.

  7. Set with Powder: Set the concealer with a translucent or slightly tinted powder to prevent creasing and prolong its wear. Use a brush to lightly dust the powder over the concealed areas.

Tips for Success

  • Use a light hand: Apply a small amount of product at a time and build up coverage as needed.
  • Hydrate your under-eye area: Dry skin can make concealer look cakey and accentuate fine lines.
  • Choose the right formula: Consider your skin type. If you have oily skin, opt for an oil-free formula. If you have dry skin, choose a hydrating formula.
