5 Useful Concealer Hacks To Keep Your Beauty Game Strong
Written by Sanya HamdaniSep 27, 2019
Are you using concealer only for the most obvious – concealing dark circles and imperfections? Then what we are about to tell you is going to blow your mind! Because that cover-up stick sitting in your makeup kit can do so much more than just conceal. Turns out, this is a multi-tasking product with some serious hidden talents, waiting to be discovered. We have found everything your concealer can do to up your makeup game. Here’s what you didn’t know about your concealer.
Does your mascara fail to give you that dramatic lift you always wanted? Instead of spending all your money on buying different mascaras and praying one of them will do the trick, how about doing this instead? Pour a drop of concealer on the back of your hand and dip a Q-tip in it, now lightly coat your lashes. Pull out your mascara wand and apply two layers to amp up those lashes!
Get the perfect arch
An instant eye lift and illusion of fuller, well-defined brows is only this concealer trick away. Fill your brows with eyebrow powder or pencil, then pick a concealer two shades lighter than your skin tone and apply above and below your brow, neatly outlining and blend well. This will enhance your arch as well as make your eyes look more awake.
Prime your eyelids
If you haven’t managed to get yourself one of those eye primers yet, fret not! A dab of concealer works equally well. Your eye makeup needs a good base to look stunning as well as last long. Take a little bit of concealer and blend it well on your eyelids to get even coverage and control excessive oil.
Make that lipstick pop
You know how sometimes your red lipstick just doesn't look as bright and popping as you'd hoped? That’s because of the pigmentation around the lip area. To make your lipstick pop and look stunning, blend concealer on the cupids bow, corners of your lips, and below the lower lip to get a defined look.
Create the illusion of plumper lips
Those perfect pout-worthy lips you see on your Instagram feed are not always a result of lip fillers. You can use makeup to create the illusion of plumper lips. Dab a light shade of concealer in the centre of your upper and lower lip, blend it with your fingertip and finish off with a nude lip gloss.
