How do you apply face concealer?

Applying concealer is a key step in any makeup routine, helping to cover imperfections, brighten the under eye area, and create a smooth, natural finish. From selecting the right concealer formula to blending for flawless coverage, here’s how to make the most of this essential makeup product.

Step 1: Select the right concealer

Choosing the best concealer depends on your skin type and needs. A hydrating concealer with hyaluronic acid is ideal for dry skin, while a non-comedogenic formula works well for oily skin and won't clog pores. If you want a full coverage concealer for dark spots or redness, opt for a cream concealer with a creamy texture. For a lightweight option, try a liquid concealer for a natural look.

Step 2: Prepare your skin

Before applying concealer, moisturize your skin with a product that moisturizes and use a primer to create a smooth base. For sensitive skin, ensure your products are gentle. This step ensures your concealer blends seamlessly without settling into fine lines.

Step 3: Apply and blend

Using a tiny bit of concealer, apply directly to blemishes, dark circles, or undereye circles. To cover dark spots, choose a shade lighter than your skin tone. For contouring or highlighting, use a concealer slightly brighter than your foundation. Blend using a sponge, brush, or your fingertips for a natural finish.

Step 4: Set for longevity

After blending, set your concealer with a light layer of powder to prevent creasing and ensure a full coverage finish. For the under eye area, use a translucent powder to brighten and smooth the appearance of fine lines.

Quick tips for perfect application

- Use a lightweight concealer for undereye circles to avoid creasing.

- Choose a great product like Maybelline for high-quality results.
