It is sensitive to sun exposure and has orange undertones. Using the right concealer is crucial to get a perfect makeup look. In this blog, you will learn How to apply concealer.

      7 Concealer Pro Tips You need to Know

      Now that you know how to apply concealer on Indian skin, it is time we impart valuable tips to make your concealer look flawless. Have a look!

      1. If you are going to apply makeup during the daytime, apply a thick layer of sunscreen under your makeup. This will keep your skin protected from harmful UVA and UVB rays.
      2. Do not buy a concealer that is a lot lighter than your skin tone. The philosophy behind makeup is to enhance your naturally gorgeous face; it should not be used to hide your natural skin tone to fit inside the orthodox mold of beauty.
      3. Use a damp beauty blender to blend your concealer correctly.
      4. A little product goes a long way. Apply a tiny amount first and blend it well. More product does not mean more coverage.
      5. Do your research and choose the concealer that suits your skin type and texture.
      6. If your concealer is getting oxidized, you are probably using a lot of product or the wrong shade for your undertone.
