No wrinkles and dryness: how to apply concealer perfectly

Concealer will help not only to hide acne and age spots. If used correctly, this cosmetic product can create a visual lifting effect. The dense, thick texture reduces the appearance of age spots, acne, and redness on the skin.

However, there is one caveat – concealer often dries the skin and begins to slide into fine lines under the eyes. Experts tell us how to apply concealer to prevent dry skin.

Why do you need concealer

Concealer is indispensable in everyday makeup.

Among its main functions:

• even out the complexion;
• masking enlarged pores;
• Toning of problem areas – acne, age spots, etc;
• reducing the appearance of wrinkles;
• masking hyperpigmentation, spider veins, and redness.

How to apply concealer

To emphasize the natural beauty, create a lifting effect, and prevent the concealer from slipping into wrinkles, you should follow a certain sequence of application.

The life hack that went viral on social media was suggested by makeup artist Monika Klinaviciute. Instead of applying concealer first and then setting it with powder, she advises mixing the two products to reduce the two-step application.

Step 1

First, take your concealer and oil powder. Dip the concealer stick into the powder.

Step 2

Apply the mixture to the under-eye area in four strokes and blend in circular motions with a brush.

Step 3

Now all you need to do is blend the product well to get the perfect makeup.

It is better to choose a concealer that is slightly lighter than your skin tone. Apply the product to the outer corners of the eyes, then lift it slightly upward and drag it to the temple.
