Make Up Games and Blemishes

Many of us use concealer to cover up blemishes, but I’ve recently learned that it’s not the best way. Concealer is great for the dark circles under your eyes, but if you’re looking to reduce the appearance of red spots from acne, you don’t want to use concealer. It’s too light and you’ll be creating a bright white spot that draws the eye like a signpost. Instead of concealer, buy a stick of heavy foundation or a tube of very creamy foundation that isn’t as sheer as what you’d normally use on your face.

The foundation should match your skin exactly for these make up games, and to cover the blemish, you’ll simply dab a dot directly on top of the redness. Once your make up games have a dot of base, use one finger to dot, dot, dot at the spot to help it blend in with the surrounding foundation and skin. By using the exact skin tone of your face, the foundation covering the spot will easily blend in, making your make up games truly flawless.
