How To Hide Pimples With Makeup
Step 1:
One thing about breakouts people do not consider is that when they grab for concealers and foundations, they like covering it more than visiting a dermatologist , this should not be done in case of intense breakouts, a dermatologist should be consulted , and there should be discarding of make up sponges at regular intervals , otherwise the bacteria will get contaminated to the makeup products and other areas of the skin as well. Do not use with directly from foundation bottles with finger tips , you may be transferring the bacteria to the bottle itself .
Step 2: Foundation
Step 3: Concealer
Now when do you need a concealer , concealer it self needs a little pressing into the skin, so it’s good when the pimples or acne are scarred and red. Before using a concealer in skin tone , if the pimples are real red , try using a green concealer (we all know how colour correcting concealers can help undertone or overtone some basic colours of the skin surface) , if u cant get a green concealer then put a little bit of green from any of your matte eyeliner pencils( though i do not recommend any with sparkles or too much use of it . Just a little bit to minimise the redness.), then cover it up with a concealer, by dabbing it on to the pimples area(not swiping it) then Swipe with a foundation.
Step 4: Powder
Use of a compact or a normal talc with a puff , is definitely recommended to hold the makeup firm in the place of the pimple prone area.
Step 5: Distraction
The art of distraction can make or break your look. This tells you to shift the focus of the people watching or seeing you from your problem area to a “no problem” zone . Like if you have Pimples on your cheeks , then you should use some glossy lipsticks and so on . so that people’s attention shifts to ur lips. If you have acne on your chin and they r really terrible , then do not put too much shiny gloss on lips because it will further draw the watcher’s attention to the chin-lip area. Instead play with ur eyes and make them bold and dark. Again if you have pimples on your forehead then definitely you can play up some gloss and at the same time some bronzer or reddish blush to the cheeks can play the trick.
