can u wear concelar without foundation?thnks

Sure you can!
Just apply it where you need it (like under the eyes, sides of the nose, blemishes, etc) and smoth it.
In the end, you must fix it with powder.

Yeh...I do that most of the time, a dab of concealer and I'm ok for coverage!

i was also wondering has anyone here tried Airbrush concelar by clinique or any Benefit ones thnks

^I've used Boing, the one for undereye circles. It is a good concealer in terms of coverage, blendability, texture, etc. the only bad part is that it only comes in three shades: Light, Medium, Dark, so it's not too likely that the shade will be a perfect match with your skin tone.

has anyone used the highlighting concealer by Estee Lauder.. the one that comes in that wandish thing?

i just got it. wondering about other ppls opionions
=)

I've heard good things about Origins concealer, thinking of getting it, among other Origins products!! Anyone used it before?

This is redundant, but people are saying different things soo for blemishes should I put it on after foundation? and undereyes before? I use Bare Minerals for my foundation and powder, but I've never gotten their concealer type powder product so I still just use a stick clean and clear one that doesn't work well. I'm thinking of just getting the bare minerals one though since their products are fool proof application wise!

I'm looking for a concealer which covers some randomn acne scarring. I'm currently using MAC select cover up but its too sheer. Suggestions anybody?

 

[sofialuv]

Most liquid concealers have less pigment than creamy ones.
You can try Mac Studio Finish.

I have also heard that Rimmel hide the Blemish is also very good and v. cheap too.

 

[chocolatestain]

I'll go try the MAC studio one. Argh. We don't have Rimmel in Singapore or Melbourne.

Thanks!

i use rimmel hide the blemish under my eyes only
w/no other base make up . . just serum + moisturiser
v.pigmented + creamy . . i keep coming back to it
however . . it does tend to gather in the tiny lines under my eyes i get when i smile
so i have to set it w/powder . . or just pat it out again

I'm currently using MAC studio finish, the colour is perfect although I find this concealer to be very dry ( even when I mix it with a bit of moisturizer ). Haven't found my HG concealer yet.

I LOVE Mac studio finish. The best I've tried so far. But Biotherm's Forget It liquid concealer is great too, and it does feel lighter.

I bought the MAC studion finish one. Tried to use it before school today and spent 5 minutes trying to blend it in. Guess it'll get better with practise though.

I put mine on the radiator for a couple of minutes, it blends easier if its warm

The trick is to apply it imediatly after you have moisturized and also not to spread it and rather "tap" it.

Also, take a bit with your ring finger and warm it agains the back of your hand- only then apply it.

The Ida: Although it may sound like a good trick, eventually it will make your product to go bad as makeup products should allways be in a cool enviorment.

^I haven't experienced that my concealer went bad, I always do it in the winter. Have done it forever. I think it only applies to fluid products, honestly.

That is such an awesome idea, you are so clever! Karma!

I am using Lancome Effacernes due to it's good reviews on Makeup Alley. It's a little meh for blending but it might just be that I am using an inferior powder to set the concealer. It's not very effective on blemishes but I find that if applied with a tiny little concealer brush and then set with powder it's pretty good. I mostly use it for undereye circles and darkness, which is what it was really meant for. I'm using Porcelaine I and it's really good for brightening up the eye area. I apply it with a quo cream eyeshadow brush.

I used to use dior skinflash but it was too expensive for me, and wore off really fast, in retrospect I think it was meant as a highlight like YSL touche eclat.
