If your weekend plan was to party all night or simply Netflix and chill, and this fun time was no chill to your skin, you need some quick fix to look flawless the following day. Dark circles, crowfeet, spots, and the pimple that pops up right a day before an important event – all they need is just one concealer!
And as you say, ‘now you are talking,’ let us take you on a quick trip to the magic that a concealer does in no time to hide imperfections on the skin with the use of simple tools and techniques.
Dark Circles
Dark circles are the most troublesome ones for even skin tone, and crowfeet make it worse. Gluing to the screen, either for work or scrolling social media, affects the under-eye area the most. What comes more as a challenge is the deep chronic under-eye area. For it, you need to apply a colour corrector first in orange or peach tone. Apply it only on the dark area and let it absorb for five minutes. Now use a face concealer, Ecostay Insta Hide Crème Concealer – Peach Corrector, suitable to your skin tone.
Pro tip: Always use crème base concealers to cover the under-eye area, as they will not form crease lines.
Pimple Marks
The love mark that the acne left your face with is unworthy of showing off. Cover any and every spot and acne mark with Lotus concealer. Always dab the product on the affected area and not blend or buff it. While blending or buffing, you spread away the concealer from the affected area, reducing the impact on the concerned area.
Pro tip: Always match the concealer with the skin tone around the spots.
Acne and Blemish
Let go of the urge to even out the acne bump while concealing acne or pimple, or you will flush your face with the product. Stick to even out the skin tone and hide the pimple’s redness by putting a dot on the affected area with a brush tip and gently patting powder to set the face concealer.
Pro tip: To offset redness, use a concealer with a yellow undertone, Ecostay Insta Hide Crème Concealer – Rich Shell.
Redness or Rosacea
While you might love basking in the sun, the redness it causes isn’t kind to the skin. The redness can be concealed using a green concealer to hide the redness. Finish it up with a foundation for an even finish. The breaking of capillaries or rosacea leaves redness and uneven skin texture. Cover it with yellow or gold tone concealer, Ecostay Insta Hide Crème Concealer – Royal Ivory, to neutralize the pink tone.
Pro Tip: Wear warm or bright colour lipsticks, Proedit Silk Touch Gel Lip Color – Red Addict, to highlight the pink tone.
Bruises
We are considering the blue-purple spots a sign of your clumsiness, and for any other reason for the bruises, do take the right step. And before things start getting serious, dab red concealer, Ecostay Insta Hide Crème Concealer – Natural Honey, on the bruise to set off the bluish-purple tone and perfect it with powder.
Pro Tip: Cover the edges of the bruises by keeping them light and blending them into the surrounding skin to even out the skin texture and tone.
Stretch Marks
Apply a concealer for oily skin or water-resistant in a darker tone of the affected area, Ecostay Insta Hide Crème Concealer – Nude Beige, to prevent it from sliding away and cover up the mark perfectly.
Pro tip: Apply Lotus Makeup brightening crème on a depressed mark to reflect the light and draw out attention.
Age Spots
The black or brown spots on the skin are ageing spots, and we understand the worry about hiding them. All you need is a touch of concealer! Take a dot of the concealer on your figure tip and dab it on the spot, concentrating on the edges. Finish it off by applying a fine powder foundation on the whole face to improve the skin tone.
Pro tip: Use a peach or gold-tone concealer to offset the tan-toned spots.
