Impeccable skin tone - the basis of perfect makeup.But what if your skin is far from perfect? Pigment spots, dark circles under the eyes, redness and rash in a normal tone or powder should not be masked. In this case it is useful to have a concealer for the face (a masking pencil) and a palette with color correctors in your cosmetic bag. Both tools are designed to mask skin defects, but the principle of their use is somewhat different. Corrector corrects skin tone due to the visual effect of color neutralization. Green tint is designed to mask redness, yellow hides the blue tone.
Concealer for the face is more denseconsistency, so the obvious defects of the skin it masks much better than concealer. As a rule, the concealer shade is matched to the color of powder or tonal means, or slightly lighter.
The main cosmetic problem of mostwomen, regardless of age, are dark circles under the eyes. They make the face look tired and haggard. Had it happened a few hundred years ago, such a lady would have been considered beautiful. After all, there were times when pallor and shadows under the eyes were considered a sign of special spirituality. The ladies drank vinegar, hid from the sun and painted blue veins on the skin. But today, the ideals of female attractiveness have changed. In a fashion healthy, radiant, young skin with an even blush. Bags under the eyes in modern canons do not fit in any way. Therefore, this small defect of the ladies prefer to mask with cosmetics. But in order to achieve the desired effect and make the face more attractive, rested and fresh, it is important to be able to properly use cosmetics.
Concealers should be used in the eye area.specially designed for this purpose. The shade of a camouflage pencil is selected depending on the skin tone. If you do not want to become like a panda, give up too light shades. Even if you are accustomed to using a very light tone with a pinkish tint, the concealer is better to choose a peach color.
Concealer can be used not only for camouflage, but also as a basis for the shadows, to make-up better held.
Apply concealer under the eyes with a special needcaution, especially in the presence of fine wrinkles and crow's feet. Too thick layer of masking cream for this part of the face is not suitable. All surplus will be collected in skin folds, only exacerbating the problem.
No need to smear the concealer, so you stretch the delicate skin around the eyes. It is better to gently hammer it with your fingertips and blot the excess.
Many makeup artists advise before applyingconcealer to use eye cream to not overdry skin. But this issue is best addressed individually. Believe me, nothing terrible will happen if you do not. Much worse, if several layers of the plaster applied according to all the rules begin to slip from the face at the most inappropriate moment.
Normal concealment mask for darkcircles and bags under the eyes does not fit, but concealer for the face can be replaced by eye cream with a tonal effect. Similar products today produce many cosmetic companies. Pay attention to the products "Garnier", "Olay" or "Nivea". Of course, such a product will not hide serious problems, but it will hide the light shadows under the eyes or reddening quite successfully.
Внезапно вскочивший на лице прыщик, конечно, не universal tragedy, but before a business meeting or a romantic date such a decoration on the face is completely inappropriate. But here, too, a little helper comes from the cosmetic bag. A special concealer for acne with salicylic acid not only disguises, but also dries out the rash. But in order to mask the redness, before applying concealer, cover the pimple with a very thin layer of a greenish corrector.
Freckles or age spots can be masked.with the help of a dry dense concealer applied under a tonal foundation or powder. Here you can recommend concealer from "Oriflame" with the content of minerals. Please note that this product is used only for masking problem areas, but not for the entire face.
