Hello dear readers of the beauty viewer channel! :-))

Who among us does not bother with bruises under the eyes?! Patches and creams don't always work the way we would like. And not everyone can afford fillers or simply against injecting something into the area around the eyes.

Today I want to tell you how to properly hide the hated bruises. I'll tell you about the common mistakes many of you make, and after reading your makeup will become faster and, most importantly, less noticeable.

Two main mistakes await us at the very beginning - when choosing a remedy for bruising!

First mistake: Incorrect selection of funds format

It is not difficult to get confused here, manufacturers themselves are not averse to misleading us, calling the concealer a concealer, and concealer - a concealer. Let's analyze on the shore what are the differences between these means and how not to get confused in the choice.

Concealer more liquid, comes in a format with a brush or applicator. Concealers are light, medium, dense, pigmented, lightly pigmented, moisturizing and mattifying.

Corrector designed to correct color nuances. It can be green, pink, peach, purple, etc.

The proofreader can be in different formats and for different reasons. Often, for the area under the eyes, we are offered the format of a washer or stick, products in this format are wax-based, which reduces their durability.

Peach concealer overlays blue-purple bruises
Pink concealer covers gray-green bruises

These correctors are best applied with your fingers! Due to their waxy texture from the warmth of the fingers, they become more pliable and well distributed.

You need to apply it only on a color nuance, you do not need to smear randomly on the entire area under the eyes: the more you go beyond the bruise border, the more the color of the corrector will be visible.

You need to use the corrector before applying the tone. And for more durability and color overlap, you can apply concealer to the concealer.

Further it will be difficult, please read carefully and thoughtfully.

Choose the color intensity in the corrector based on the color intensity of your bruises. That is, if you have severe bruises, then you need to choose a corrector with a more intense color.

What does more intense color mean? Let's look at an everyday example. For rich dark purple bruises, a light peach color corrector is not suitable, simply because it will be useless, for such a color it is better to choose a dark peach

Just because if you use a light peach concealer, then the miracle won't happen. Conversely, if you have mild bruising, the bright peach color will be noticeable. This all suggests that the corrector should be suitable for the tone level.

Fuh, we figured it out, let's move on :-)

Second mistake. Incorrect color and density of concealer

How many times have I seen girls with a peach concealer, which is applied far beyond the bruise, and they don't even try to soften a little in tone, but the beauties do not even understand that they only aggravated situation.

But most of all I "like" when they try to lighten the center of the forehead with this very peach concealer, for example. For such people, I have bad news: you did not highlight anything, but painted a peach star on your forehead.

Choosing a concealer color

If you have practically no bruises under your eyes, color correction is not your song at all, but you want a little even out the skin color, for this, use gray concealers or choose a shade to match the skin tone or foundation facilities.

The choice of concealer color depends on its density. The color of the thick concealer must match your skin color, otherwise it will be very noticeable.

Choose light concealers one half tone lighter, it is more liquid in texture and less pigmented.

The third mistake that gets little attention. Choosing the wrong finish for concealer

Concealers come in matte and moisturizers. When choosing, keep in mind that matte concealers will dry out the skin around the eyes and accentuate wrinkles. Therefore, before applying them, the skin should be well prepared, and sometimes completely abandoned.

When choosing a moisturizing concealer, keep in mind that it may peel off slightly. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but you can delay it a little by powdering after application.

The fourth mistake. Incorrect application of concealer and corrector

With the application of the color corrector, we figured out above that we apply it only to the color nuance without going abroad, otherwise there is a great chance to leave ourselves a red or pink spot around the bruise.

The concealer is applied in much the same way, in a thin layer, to the color nuance. Don't forget to shade the borders. If one layer is not enough for you, you can apply more, but keep in mind: the larger the layer, the more noticeable it is and the chance of rolling into wrinkles is much greater.
