Different Types of Concealers
There are several types of concealers - liquid, cream and powder. Cream concealers tend to come in stick formats. For liquid concealer try BAREPRO 16-Hour Skin-Perfecting Concealer or our ORIGINAL Liquid Concealer. Our powder concealers turn into a creamy consistency when buffed on to the skin.
Choosing the Right Shade and Formula for Your Skin Type
Why choose one type of concealer over the other can depend on your skin type. For acne prone skin try Loose Powder Concealer SPF 20 - made with only 5 ingredients, this non-comedogenic concealer is great at concealing blemishes.
Our new BAREPRO 16-Hour Skin-Perfecting Concealer is great for all skin types especially mature skin. It can contour, cover dark circles and if you've experienced adult acne, well, this will become one of your go-to, best acne products since it's full coverage and skin-improving. Yes, skin-improving. Because we always think your skin deserves better. An ideal concealer for oily skin (and all skin types, for that matter), BAREPRO Concealer stands up to sweat and humidity and it won't clog pores or cause additional breakouts. It also covers uneven skin texture and tone all for a full 16 hours. What we're saying is: this is the concealer you've been waiting for.
When thinking about your concealer shade think about what you are tying to conceal. If you are concealing a blemish you'll want to match your skin tone. If you are tying to conceal dark circles you might want a lighter shade to brighten the under eye area. You'll likely need different concealer shades in your makeup bag for these purposes as well as for the different seasons. The concealer you use in summer may be a deeper shade than the concealer you use in winter when your skin is at its palest.
Application Techniques
Apply this creamy concealer before liquid or cream foundations, and before loose mineral or powder foundations. Liquids and creams should be applied before powders to avoid caking.
How to Cover Acne and Blemishes with Concealer
1. Using the shade designed for your skin tone, apply concealer directly from the tube. 2. Pat in gently with your ring finger. 3. For fuller coverage, blend out with a small, flat brush, such as the Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush. 4. To diffuse coverage, blend with a dual-fiber brush such as the Shade & Diffuse Eye Brush. 5. To really lock in your coverage, dust on Mineral Veil powder with a soft, fluffy brush, such as the Supreme Finisher Brush.
Blending and Setting Tips
Wondering how to blend concealer? Applying your concealer with the doe foot applicator is only part of the process. Blending with your fingertips is a good choice because the warmth of your fingertips helps blend in your concealer. A brush can be helpful, especially when using a powder concealer. After blending your concealer, set it using a setting powder to ensure your makeup is locked in for the day.
