Concealer can stand out on clothes.

Once concealer stains dry completely, you may need to spot clean the fabric before putting it in your washing machine. Liquid concealer works deep into the fabric, which requires you to agitate the cloth to completely remove the stain. Prevent stains by leaning toward your mirror when putting on makeup so that if you drop the concealer wand or drip the liquid, it won't fall on your clothes.
