How To Apply?

When learning more about concealers and correcting fluids to use with your makeup, look deep into the aspects of how to use color correcting fluid – why is that? This is because once the base if done and when you see imperfections on the skin, you would want to get it neutralised and minimised, diminished altogether. It is very easy to correct the dark circle marks under the eyes, using orange or yellow, based on your skin tone respectively.

While the color corrector makeup fluid you need to use would be one depending on the type of problem your skin has, using full-coverage foundations and not sheer ones would be the best thing to do. This is because, some color correctors such as green ones would show through the sheer foundation. So anything between medium to high coverage would be the best to use; most bridal makeup artists use high density coverage and pansticks, which can help with the build-up.

Full-coverage foundations are best but not all want the same, because it makes the face look as though a mask has been worn. This is why, we always insist on choosing foundation shades that are closest match to the skin on the nape of the neck. However, when camouflaging the issues on the skin, full-coverage is a sure shot way to make the flawless look come through. And sometimes, it doesn’t even need major makeup correctors to work its tricks.

Things To Keep In Mind

  1. Check very well the color wheel to determine the shade your skin issue falls into
  2. Check for reputed companies only that sell palettes on makeup correctors
  3. Never use single stashed pots and tubes for color correctors; some issues need more correction and makeup corrector formulas than the rest.
  4. Always check under warm lights to know if the concealing and camouflaging can be seen under the foundation base you used.
  5. Never ever use sheer foundation over makeup correctors- you don’t want to tell the world you are hiding something, now do you?
