We all know that concealers are meant to hide imperfections. Depending on what you want to cover, different types of concealers will be the most effective:
To conceal dark circles under your eyes, you need a lightweight concealer that won't settle into fine lines. For even better results, go for a concealer with light-reflecting pigments – it will brighten up your under-eye area and make you look more awake.
If you want to hide spots and other blemishes, a creamy concealer with colour-correcting properties will do the trick. Always dab the concealer onto the affected area instead of dragging it with your fingers or a brush.
When it comes to picking the perfect concealer, the texture matters a lot. There are 2 main types of concealers you should know about:
Liquid concealers come in a vial with an applicator in the lid. These are super popular and easy to use, with a slightly thinner consistency that blends effortlessly.
Creamy concealers come in a tube or jar. These have a thicker texture than their liquid counterparts, making them perfect for covering up more stubborn blemishes.
You’ve probably come across concealers that are a totally different colour to your skin tone. We're talking greens, purples, and peachy shades. These concealers are actually colour-correcting and are used to neutralise other colours. Peach-toned concealers can help neutralise blue tones under your eyes, while purple-toned ones can cancel out yellow tones in your skin. And if you're struggling with redness, a green-toned concealer can work wonders.
We've found a handy guide on Maybelline´s site to help you figure this colour correcting thing out.
