Difference concealer from corrector
There is a common misconception that concealer and conciller are completely interchangeable products that have the same masking properties. However, this is not the case. Concealer is a more dense tool that can mask strong inflammation and acne. Thanks to salicylic acid, which is part of it, they relieve inflammation and, at the same time, have a strong drying effect, which can further lead to flaking of the skin. In this regard, this tool can only be used on inflamed areas, but not in areas with enhanced pigmentation and not to disguise bruises under the eyes. To correct these deficiencies, it is better to use the concealer, which due to its composition has a more gentle effect on the skin. It does not overdry it and that is why it can be used even on the delicate skin around the eyes. Most concealers have a moisturizing effect, which is especially important for sensitive areas.
Selection features
Like any concealer, concealer should be chosen according to the color of the skin and under the problem that it must hide. For masking circles under the eyes, more orange and orange-apricot colors are suitable, they even out the tone and blend well with the foundation. Those who have a dimmer and grayer complexion should pay attention to beige shades, they will perfectly hide flaws and refresh the complexion, making it more healthy and radiant. Girls with pale skin should avoid dark and saturated shades; pale pink and pale peach colors will do an excellent job with their task. Also pay attention to the form of release concealer: so dense sticks are more difficult to apply on the skin around the eyes, in contrast to more liquid products.
How to apply to mask dark circles under the eyes?
Since the skin around the eyes is thinner and softer than the rest of the face, it is worth treating it with special attention and caution. The disguise of dark circles is a very delicate effect, since the concealer not only has to even out the color, but also not emphasize mimic wrinkles. To achieve maximum fusion, colored mowers, peach and orange, should be applied under the foundation and beige under the top of the tonal framework. The tool should be applied in the form of a triangle, and not in a semicircle, this method when shading will more effectively mask them. Borders should be well shaded, and after that apply the foundation, which completely hide the border of the concealer.
According to reviews of those who use concealer on an ongoing basis, it is an indispensable tool for masking minor flaws. Also with its help you can slightly change the shape of the nose, if you apply a small amount of concealer on the wings, and already use a regular foundation cream on top.
