Eye concealer application diagram. How to use facial concealer

0 April 4, 2012, 5:04 pm

Any makeup is a work of art.

There is not a single woman who would be completely satisfied with her appearance; even ideal beauties will find something to complain about when looking in the mirror. Wrong nose shape, wrong eye shape, wrong face shape...

So, today I will tell you, dear gossips, how professionals disguise problem skin, as well as how to correctly correct the shape of the face and visually give it the ideal outline.

Perhaps this will help some of you solve one of your important problems or will be useful in the future.

Primer

Primer is a base for makeup. It is designed to make makeup more durable. The application of foundation will be more subtle and natural. Primers even out the surface of the face and are generally an irreplaceable thing. Any primer is designed to visually minimize pores, hide fine lines, and mattify.

The base can be colorless or colored, mattify or, conversely, moisturize the skin, neutralize its shade, lighten the skin tone or, conversely, give it a more tanned appearance. The foundation fits better on it, but some bases can be used independently without foundation - in the absence of obvious skin defects.

Example of color bases:

Primer or base is not a foundation. Confusion arose due to the original name on English. In English, both base and foundation mean “foundation, basis, basis.” But if the tube says Foundation, that means it’s a foundation, and if it says Primer, then it’s a base.

In short, if a foreign name contains two words at once, then what kind of product is the latter will speak. For example: Guerlain - Meteorites Perles Light Diffusing Perfecting Primer - this is a PRIMER, a makeup base. And if the name is: Guerlain - Lingerie de Peau Invisible Skin-Fusion Foundation - then we have a foundation.

About correctors (concealers and making the right choice colors)

Unfortunately, a cream called “Photoshop” has not yet appeared on sale so that we can sculpt any face we want. On the other hand, if such a cream existed, then the same people would walk the streets. Nature has created us completely different, and what we have is worth appreciating and embellishing. And cosmetic companies are trying so hard for this!

But there are still magic remedies - correctors.

They come in different types: base correctors (primers, applied to the entire face, described above), cream correctors (applied to problem areas of the skin), pencil correctors, and so on. I won’t recommend any particular brand; similar products can be found in any store with a wide selection of cosmetics.

Proofreaders have different colors, and each color works with a specific problem. Allergies, pigmentation, overtanning, thin skin or capillaries located close to the surface, even bruises - all this can be hidden with the help of correctors.

Now about the flowers.

White The color of the corrector is used to lighten dark areas of the skin or to disguise freckles. However, it must be used with caution and is only suitable for very fair skin, or for sculpting the shape of the face to highlight bulges.

Purple pink corrector color (lavender) - copes with yellowness and greenness. Used for skin types with unhealthy yellow undertones. Also suitable for hiding bruises that are already passing (for example, after plastic surgery, when the bruise already leaves a dark yellow spot)

Violet(with a blue tint) - hides large age spots or a self-tanner that doesn't fade.

Green corrector - neutralizes redness. For rashes, allergies, acne scars, and any redness, a greenish corrector will cope.

Pink corrector. It is used for any skin tone. It can cover dark (blue) circles under the eyes, it masks veins, and covers wrinkles and age spots well.

You should also remember that for artificial lighting you should choose a foundation with a pink undertone.

Apricot corrector - (which contains more red) - refreshes aging skin, as well as skin without blush with a grayish undertone. Evens out olive (painful) skin color and gives it vibrancy if used under foundation.

Orange corrector (bright yellow) - masks very noticeable bruises or circles under the eyes, even very dark ones, which are found in dark-skinned girls.

Yellow- disguises purple: dark circles, circles, bruises. Gives the skin a warm tone if needed. One thing to remember is that if you want to look brilliant in sunlight and natural light, you should choose foundations that are warm in tone, golden or yellowish.

Beige The corrector helps revitalize skin tone and even out color. Or it covers the residual effects after some problems on the skin. When covering up a bruise, cover first the right shade, and then masked with beige.

Blue corrector - neutralizes heavy tanning.

How to use the corrector?

Naturally, out of necessity, if there really is a SERIOUS problem that needs to be hidden.

The main thing is to shade it well. In general, the main thing in makeup is to shade EVERYTHING well.

Apply with a finger or a brush, depending on the structure of the product. On or under foundation - whatever suits you.

About concealers.

Concealers are designed to remove dark circles under the eyes; they may not cope with other more serious skin imperfections.

To disguise dark circles under the eyes or spider veins, it is better to use concealers in yellowish shades.

Important: the concealer should be much lighter than your skin tone or foundation.

They are also used to highlight certain areas of the skin, as some concealers contain reflective particles.

How to apply?

The concealer is applied with gentle movements and carefully shaded so that the boundaries of application are not noticeable. As a rule, on foundation (if you use it).

If the concealer is used as a concealer or as a corrector of some skin imperfections, then it should be applied with patting movements to the foundation, lightly powdering this area on top, and you will be happy.

Correction according to the shape of the face.

Face correction using any corrective means convenient for you (for example, creamy or powdery correctors of light and dark shades) always occurs according to the classical scheme:

Although experimenting with cosmetics is always interesting. You can also use these:

And most importantly - shade!!!

However, to achieve the perfect result, you need to consider your face shape. Simple rules They will tell you exactly how best to correct your specific face in order to emphasize your strengths and eliminate your shortcomings.

Correction round face consists in visually lengthening it and changing the contour of the cheeks. To do this, you should darken the sides of the face (temples, cheeks and jaw) with blush. natural color with a brownish tint or any other corrector (do not forget that the transition between light and dark colors should be smooth, therefore, any cosmetics should be thoroughly shaded), making the color most saturated at the chin, this will help give the face an oval shape. The main blush is applied to the cheekbones in the form of a triangle, which extends to the corners of the mouth.
The forehead, under the eyes and chin are highlighted to draw attention to the center of the face.

If you are the lucky owner oval face, then you can safely experiment with different types makeup without fear of making mistakes. There is no need to adjust the shape of an oval face. It can be emphasized by slightly highlighting it, for example with a highlighter under the eyes and the highest points - the nose, forehead and chin.

Correction triangular face should help visually make the upper part narrow and the lower part wider. The temporal and tubercular parts of the forehead are darkened. The lower jaw line is highlighted with powder. The forehead, under the eyes and chin are highlighted to draw attention to the center of the face. Blush is applied above the cheekbones on the protruding parts, in the shape of a diamond.

A light tone is applied to the middle of the forehead, under the eyes and the tip of the chin. The blush is applied in a triangle, extending it towards the temples.

Traits diamond-shaped face softened by darkening the side of the face (cheeks) to minimize width. The forehead, under the eyes and chin are highlighted to draw attention to the center of the face. For blush, two colors are selected. Apply to the protruding part of the cheekbone dark color, underneath it is light.

To shorten the length elongated or elongated face, it is necessary to darken the chin and forehead near the hairline. And to make the face visually wider, the sides of the face are highlighted with powder, and blush in the form of an oval is applied to the protruding part of the cheeks.

This whole array of information may seem difficult to understand, but this is just at first glance. This is a general cheat sheet. You should proceed like this:

Concealer and face shape

When applying makeup with concealer, be sure to take into account your face shape. Proper sculpting will help you create the desired curves that will look completely natural. How to do this?

1. Square. For a square face shape, it is necessary to darken the corners at the bottom of the jaw, the cheekbone area, and the corner areas of the forehead. You need to highlight the area under the eyes, nose and middle of the forehead. If necessary, tint defects.

2. Circle. Here you only need to lighten the chin and forehead, and the cheekbones, temples and the transition area to the hair on the forehead need to be darkened. Using a pink or apricot shade, you definitely need to “tweak” the roundness of your cheeks.

So we figured out how to use facial concealer. Step-by-step application of this product is by no means a complicated process. You just need to know a couple of secrets and be able to apply them in practice.

Colored concealers: why and how to use?

Concealers come in different shades. They can be more than fifteen tones, which makes it possible to carry out complex makeup

Concealers come in different shades. One palette can contain more than fifteen tones, which makes it possible to carry out complex makeup.
Such palettes are used mainly by professional makeup artists.

But if desired, every girl can purchase a palette and use it independently at home. Correctors, highlighters, and other cosmetics - all this can replace facial concealer. Photos and videos containing information on the correct use of the palette can always be found on the Internet.

To choose the right color, every fashionista needs to know what shades there are and what area of ​​the face each of them should be applied to. Let's take a closer look at the colors of concealers and their purposes.

Light shades (including mid-spectrum beige) are used to disguise acne, unevenness, birthmarks, and cold spots.

Pink. Designed to cover up green imperfections. For example, circles/bruises under the eyes. However, you need to be careful with areas of blue skin. Combining pink and blue can have the opposite effect.

Yellow. Yellow and its derivative colors are used to camouflage the skin under the eyes. By applying a yellowish retouch, you can make dark veins, bag-like formations, capillary meshwork () and bruises completely invisible.

Orange. This includes apricot, peach and carrot tones. They give the skin freshness and brightness. Sometimes even a tattoo can be hidden under these shades. But here you need to be extremely careful, because orange does not suit every skin tone.

Dark correction colors. When applied correctly, they visually correct the contours of the face. With their help you can achieve the desired shape. These colors are used to create natural shimmers of the skin, shadow accents and gradients.

Violet. Used to neutralize yellow spots on the skin. Especially if these are bruises that begin to change color, acquiring a yellowish tint. Also, purple concealer evens out an uneven tan on the face and masks sunburn.

Green. It is usually combined with one of the light shades to mask redness or ripening pimples.

White. Often used instead of highlighter to sculpt the face. White concealer is applied to the prominent areas of the face (cheekbones, nose, lips) in order to hide imperfections or, conversely, to highlight advantages.

Brown. This is a natural highlighting tone that is used to treat the cheeks, corners of the forehead and other prominent areas of the face.

The choice of concealer color for creating makeup will depend on the girl’s preferences and desired goals. How to apply concealer on the face step by step - more on that later.

How to use the palette: step-by-step application

The most important thing in using a concealer palette is the correct masking scheme. The principle by which the product is distributed is similar to the application of highlighters and bronzers: lightening bulges, darkening depressions, masking defects with the desired tone.

Step by step instructions using the palette looks like this:

1. The skin must be prepared. Before the concealer, a base is applied to it - CC or, moisturizing emulsion, foundation.

2. The choice of shade always depends on the girl’s skin tone. It is he who tells you which areas to darken and which to lighten. But regardless of the skin tone, makeup artists advise always varying within two colors. You will find information on how to determine your skin tone in.

3. Apply apricot or yellow color under the eyes. The eyelids lighten, resulting in the effect of “open eyes”.

4. Place a light dot in the center of each cheek and shade it. Cheekbones, nasal ribs and upper forehead are usually darkened

5. Light and white shiny tones are superimposed on the already formed layer, which is the “pre-final” point of sculpting.

6. To fix the tint veil, mineral powder is applied, for example, it will be very good to use.

That’s right, with the help of different shades, the overall “skeleton” of facial makeup is first created, and then shaded with a brush, which helps.

It is important to remember: if there are many wrinkles on the face, then you need to use a product with a light composition. The dense and heavy structure makes these flaws more noticeable.

If you still have questions about the method of applying concealer, look further at this topic.

What is better to apply concealer - with a brush or with your fingers?

For applying concealer to wide areas faces will suit expanding and voluminous brush

The consistency of the concealer, as well as the area to which it will be applied, will help solve this issue. If the structure of the product is dense, then you can do without a brush, that is, shade it with your fingers.

It’s just important to remember: your hands must be warm, otherwise shading will be unsuccessful.

In general, makeup artists advise using exclusively a brush or.

So, for wide areas of the face, an expanding and voluminous brush (powder) is suitable. And for eyeliner and liner, it is better to use a brush with a tapered tip.

It will ideally draw the lines of the cheekbones, the corners of the eyes and the moving area of ​​the eyelids.

And don't forget about one more important detail: Before applying the product to your face, you should rinse the brush with water. This can be done using a spray bottle. It is impossible to blend concealer correctly on dry skin.

There is more than enough information about the proper use of the product on the Internet. However, many girls manage to apply concealer to their face incorrectly.

Accentuating certain areas of the face with light shades allows you to give it glow, brightness and eliminate signs of fatigue. If you know how to apply concealer correctly, you can not only create fashionable makeup, but also hide almost all skin imperfections.

What is facial concealer

Concealer is a cosmetic product aimed at correcting skin imperfections and highlighting the benefits of the face. Unlike classic corrective sticks, this product can be of almost any shade from porcelain or pearlescent to dark brown, green and blue.

Depending on the imperfections of the skin, a concealer of a certain color is selected. For example, to cover dark circles under the eyes, products of a reddish tint are recommended; to neutralize redness, green or blue products are recommended (depending on the original color of the epidermis).

How does concealer differ from corrector:

  • It can be applied before foundation, and after it. It is customary to use a corrector exclusively before applying foundation and powder;
  • The concealer dries out the skin, so many beauty experts do not recommend using it under the eyes to cover up bruises and redness;
  • The consistency of the corrector is denser and thicker. This allows it to cover up large red pimples. But it is precisely because of this feature that the product gets stuck in folds and wrinkles.

Types of concealers

All concealers are classified by shape, color and area of ​​use. They are in form like this:


By area of ​​use concealers are also reflective and corrective. The latter are traditional, they are used in all makeup techniques and can replace bronzer, blush and highlighter. A reflective concealer contains tiny mineral particles that reflect the light falling on the skin.


Concealer color selection

In order to figure out which color of concealer is used for which imperfections, we have compiled a table. It describes in detail all the options for using different shades.

ColorScope of application
GreenAs in artistic color schemes, this color is used to neutralize redness. Some manufacturers supplement the product with antibacterial components, which not only help cover up a pimple or rash, but also dry out the inflammation.
YellowThis colored concealer allows you to hide dark veins under the skin, mesh of capillaries and bruises under the eyes. It will be ineffective against strong deficiencies, so it is combined with the color red.
LavenderAll shades of purple can eliminate unsightly age spots, bruises and other “yellow” marks on the skin. Not recommended for use on dark-skinned girls, but they look great on those with the Summer and Winter color types.
RedIt is used similarly to yellow, but for painting over more serious imperfections. Instead, sometimes even red lipstick is used, but it requires careful shading and is not always convenient.
Apricot, peach, carrot, orangeIt is important to choose a shade that suits your color type. These are the most natural colors of concealers; they refresh the face, emphasize the brightness of the skin, and even allow you to cover up tattoos. They are used both as independent products and as additional ones (together with correctors, foundations, etc.).
PinkIt's quite difficult to use, but if you overdo it, you'll end up with an unattractive purple accent. This color gets rid of green pigments.

How to properly apply concealer to your face step by step

Most important point when using this cosmetic product - a scheme for applying concealer to the face. Here the principle is similar to the use of highlighters or bronzers: depressions need to be darkened, bulges should be lightened, imperfections should be painted over the right color.

Often a palette of concealers or a set of individual sticks (pencils) are used to sculpt the face. Oval face is considered ideal, therefore it is its shape that is repeated in the “skeleton” of contouring.

Principles of sculpting with concealer:


When sculpting with concealers, it is important to use brushes. Using your fingers, the product will simply rub into the skin and the desired effect will not be achieved. Therefore, it is better to stock up on a special set, for example, Mermaid Multipurpose. If you have absolutely nothing at hand, then it is best to work on the areas with sponges.


The most frequently asked question is whether concealer is applied before or after foundation. Professional makeup artists insist that only after. If you use a corrective product on dry skin, it simply won’t blend out and unsightly spots will remain on your face.


Applying corrector to your face along with concealer is a grave mistake. These two products have a similar area of ​​effect, but if they are applied to the same area together, they will create a multi-layered stain. An exception is allowed only in the case of working with complex problem skin: post-acne marks, comedones, wen.


Different brands of concealers have different thicknesses, and it also depends on the type of product used. It is much more convenient to work with liquid products. If you only have a thick product, you can revive it with a small amount of moisturizer.


To properly cover a pimple, you don't need to blend it over it. You need to first apply the concealer, then use a thin flat brush to smear a small amount of the product around it. In any other sequence of work, the pimple will not go anywhere.

More and more often, concealers are appearing in the cosmetic bags of girls who take care of themselves. The product has gained popularity along with foundation and powder.

Finding it now is not a problem: all good cosmetic stores have a large selection. But not everyone knows how to use it, nor how to choose it correctly.

What is it for and how is it different from a corrector?

This is not the same as a concealer or makeup base. Concealer is intended to hide irritations or color imperfections., conspicuous.

Inflammations, scratches, dark circles under the eyes, freckles- for all this, you should buy a concealer, and on top you can apply foundation or any product you like.

Unlike corrector, with which it is often confused, concealer works on the problem area, not pointwise. The product is suitable for daily use, so you can mask dark circles under your eyes when you wake up in the morning. The product has a light texture, so it is suitable even for delicate areas of the face.

In the hands of a skilled girl, cosmetics will improve skin tone, lighten wrinkles and darken areas of the face to change contours.

How to choose tone and color

Just like with cream or powder, it should suit your skin. But it is only under the foundation that you will apply that you can best choose the tone.

Compare it with the shade of your makeup base- it should be close so that unnecessary color mixing does not occur.

Colored concealers should be chosen “to suit the situation”. What color of concealer is needed for what:

  • Green masks inflammation (pimples, rashes, scars, any redness).
  • Pink works against greenish spots (bruises and protruding veins).
  • Yellow hides wrinkles.
  • White removes the appearance of freckles.
  • Violet copes with unwanted yellowness of the face and bruises.

The main thing is to choose the opposite color to your problem in order to properly neutralize it.

Species

The most common type is a pencil, but others should not be excluded. Mineral do from crushed minerals. Its natural origin guarantees that it will not harm the skin. On the contrary, its use may even promote the healing of inflamed areas.

Correction technique

There are several rules to follow:

  1. Apply only to clean, dry skin.
  2. Make several dots on the area to be covered. Start spreading it over the entire area using neat strokes.
  3. When covering up dark circles under the eyes, avoid the delicate eye area.
  4. If you are using the product for problem skin, then it is better to drive it in rather than shade it.

Correction dries out the skin, so after removing makeup, in the place where you applied cosmetics, you need to moisturize it.

What are colored concealers for?

Most modern girls are accustomed to the fact that the corrector should be a flesh tone, but stylists use a lot of colors to achieve the best effect. This is due to the fact that each skin blemish has a different color. For example, dark circles under the eyes are purple, and pimples are reddish in color. Let's see in what cases different colors help.

This chart can be a great help in choosing a concealer shade. In order to neutralize the lack of skin, you need to choose the opposite color of the corrector. For example, bluish veins are neutralized with apricot concealer, and orange freckles are neutralized with a purple tint.

How to use a concealer palette: application patterns

Common mistakes in using concealer

With all the abundance of information about the correct application of concealer, many girls make mistakes when using it. As a result, instead of perfect skin, you can end up with clown makeup. Let's look at the most common mistakes girls.

Mistake #1

The most common mistake girls make is applying concealer BEFORE foundation. Makeup artists never tire of repeating: first you need to even out the skin with foundation and only then mask the imperfections that the foundation couldn’t cope with.

Mistake #2

Very often girls try to use foundation as a concealer. Indeed, you can cover up dark circles under your eyes with it, but then the shade of the cream should be lighter than your skin and base complexion. Many people forget about this when they apply the same shade to their entire face. Always use the right corrector! The foundation, on top of everything else, gets into the wrinkles around the eyes, making the skin unnatural.

Mistake #3

Practice shows that girls do not have the technique of spot applying concealer. If, for example, you need to disguise a pimple, ladies begin to apply the corrector directly to the blemish and try to shade it. Know: nothing will work out for you! You will apply layer after layer of concealer, but there will be no result. Apply concealer correctly to the brush and apply it around the pimple, each time moving closer to the center of the skin imperfection.

Mistake #4

Incorrect application of concealer to the area around the eyes. Before using the corrector, apply a cream base to the area around the eyes; it will fill in small wrinkles and prevent the concealer from getting stuck in them. This way you will achieve an ideal skin tone with no wrinkles.

Mistake #5

In most cases, girls try to blend concealer on dry skin, but only professionals can do this. Makeup artists advise moisturizing your skin with water before using concealer.

Mistake #6

Shading with cold hands. Experts generally do not recommend blending concealer with your hands, but if you have already decided to do this, warm up your hands first, the process will go much easier. But remember: if you oily skin, applying concealer with your hands is contraindicated! Use a brush.

So, you now have enough information to become the owner of a beautiful complexion!
