Blemishes can be quite unsightly, and many women want to cover them up effectively using concealer. Properly applied concealer can hide blemishes completely.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Powder
  • Moisturizer
  • Foundation
  • Small make-up brush
  • Yellow, blue or green eyeshadow
  • Concealer
  1. Step 1

    Moisturize your face.

  2. Step 2

    Apply your foundation make-up.

  3. Step 3

    Apply concealer to the blemish with your finger or a small brush.

  4. Step 4

    Rub the concealer in circles, blending the edges with the skin and foundation around the blemish.

  5. Step 5

    Apply a powder top-coat to help the concealer blend in and last longer.

Tips & Warnings
  • Choose a concealer color that is close to your skin tone.
  • Put foundation on first to avoid rubbing the concealer off when applying foundation.
  • To cover dark spots or bruises, mix a little yellow eyeshadow with your concealer.
  • To cover ruddy spots and blemishes on your face, mix a little blue or green eyeshadow with your concealer.
