What does eye concealer do? and how to use it?
1. Covering dark eye circles
Before using a yellow under eye concealer for dark circles, you must first apply a moisturizing eye cream in the order of lower eyelid, upper eyelid, and outer corner of the eye. Wait until the eye cream is fully absorbed, then look closely at your eye area. Sometimes there is pigmentation or red blood on the upper eyelid, and sometimes there are visible dark circles on the lower eyelid, which can make your eye makeup look dirty, so use a special eye concealer to cover them up.
Usually, eye concealers contain eye care ingredients such as chamomile for soothing the eyes, angelica root extract for moisturizing properties and ginkgo extract for improving eye skin metabolism.
Tips for application: When using eye concealer, put it in the palm of your hand and wait for the skin temperature to slightly “melt” the concealer, the texture also becomes thinner and smoother to use.
2. Cover up wrinkles
Wrinkles are the most difficult blemish to cover in makeup, so don’t expect any products to cover the more obvious wrinkles such as lines, headlines, etc., and avoid covering up heavy concealer products on wrinkles. Now there are some concealers on the market for fine lines, most of their ingredients are added to the product with some light-sensitive factors that act to lighten or even smooth out wrinkles through the refraction of light.
Tips for application: The technique of applying concealer for wrinkles is different, not pressing, but gently pushing to prevent the remaining powder of concealer from lingering in the middle of the wrinkles.
Precautions for using eye concealer
Apply concealer products right after using foundation. This order should not be reversed.
Don’t use a concealer that is too white. That will only make your blemishes more visible.
Don’t apply concealer too thickly. The result is not only very unnatural, but also makes the skin look dry.
Use cream concealers around the eyes as much as possible. As the skin under the eyes is very delicate, it is best not to use hard texture pencil concealer products, otherwise it is easy to give rise to fine lines under the eyes.
If you don’t have a concealer around, you can use a foundation that is lighter than your foundation instead. In fact, this is also the rule when selecting concealer products. The concealer that is lighter than the foundation is the best for you.
Avoid putting concealer on your eyelids, as this will make your eyeshadow oily and unclean. If the skin under the eyes itself is very dry, you should apply a more moisturizing eye cream before applying concealer to prevent the appearance of too many dry lines.
The best tool for concealer is your finger. Because the strength is more even when using, and there is temperature, will make the concealer closer to the skin.
