with a perfect canvas. Concealers may be liquid, cream or solid (stick). Moisturize your face first for easier application.To prevent concealer from setting into fine lines, wipe away excess. Blot with a tissue for matte finish. Just the wrong shade, in just the wrong texture, and you will draw attention to those blemishes you sought to disguise.

With a multitude of products available in everytone and texture (tubes of cream, liquids with sponge-tip applicators, simple sticks and harder 'cake' compacts), there is something for everyone - the trick is knowing how to use the right product in the right place. Whether you are fair or dark, your concealer should also have yellow tones. Don't use a concealer that's white or more than half a shade lighter than your skin tone. Try for an exact match. Apply before foundation. Set the concealer with powder.

HOW TO APPLY CONCEALERS

Concealers are of a denser composition than regular foundations and are generally available in sticks, tubes, pots, and creams.

  • Take small amount of concealer on your fingertip. Apply a dot of it under the eye, moving from outside corner of eye to the inner corner. Put a bit slightly below your dark circles and cover other spots and blemishes.
  • Blend it very well, using your fingers in a gentle back and forth dotting motion. Avoid pulling or rubbing the skin under eye
  • After applying it, just check out by smiling in front of the mirror. It must not creep into the little lines around your eyes. If it is so, blot gently with a tissue.
