For a better look, it is necessary to remove the spots on the face and these women like to take the help of makeup. There are many types of problems on the skin, and concealer is used in makeup to hide them. Concealer is an important part of your makeup which helps in keeping the makeup intact for a long time. Applying it gives a nice finishing touch to the makeup. It works to make your look attractive, but many times women make some mistakes while using it, due to which the look gets ruined. Today we are going to tell you about those same mistakes. So let's know about them...
Not prep the skin
Before applying makeup on the face, it is very important to prep it. Doing this makeup will not damage the skin. Also, your makeup will look very flawless. You should moisturize your skin well. You should use under-eye cream before applying concealer. Apply the cream for at least 15 minutes before applying the concealer so that it gets absorbed well. It also does not create creases. If you have dark circles under your eyes, use a cream color corrector.
Not moisturizing the skin enough
Many times you apply concealer without moisturizing the skin enough, which can spoil your makeup. The skin around the eyes is very sensitive, thus keeping it hydrated is also very important. So before applying concealer, always pat some eye cream or moisturizing cream under your eyes and leave it for some time. After a few minutes, your skin is ready for concealer. By doing this your concealer will not become patchy and will last longer.
Not using primer
Pimples mostly occur on oily skin. In such a situation, it is very difficult for the concealer to last. That's why use primer too. This helps keep the concealer in place. Don't touch the pimple. This can lead to infection.
Using one shade all over the face
If you're applying a shade to your face, avoid doing so. Often some people make this mistake, whereas to get flawless skin, always try to choose a concealer in two shades similar to your skin. One shade that closely matches your skin tone and one that's slightly lighter than your skin tone. Then, to hide your blemishes, apply a shade matching the skin tone and use a light shade to brighten the face.
Formula is correct
You should choose a concealer according to your skin needs. If you are struggling with breakouts then use a matte concealer. These concealers are thick, which will hide breakouts well. Creamy formula concealer will be perfect to cover the under-eye. Never rub concealer. Always apply by dab-dab.
Applying foundation before concealer
Often girls are confused about foundation and concealer while doing makeup. They are confused as to which one should be used first. In such a situation, many girls use foundation first. But this is wrong. The concealer smoothes the face by hiding the spots and freckles on the face. In this case, use the foundation only after applying concealer on the face. This helps in keeping your makeup intact for a long time.
Skipping setting powder
After applying the concealer, set it with setting powder. Using this will make your concealer last longer. Along with this, it works to give a new and natural look to the face.
Makeup brush
You need to use the right brush to apply the concealer. You cannot apply foundation and concealer with the same brush. You will easily find concealer brushes in the market. Keep in mind that there are different brushes made for concealing each area of the face.
