Nobody’s perfect- especially when it comes to our skin. Probably 1% of the population has ‘perfect’ skin, but as for the rest of us, sometimes we need a little intervention. Continue reading to find out how to hide your facial skin imperfections from masking dark under eye circles to concealing a blemish.

Acne

*Regardless of the reason- stress, hormones, etc, a pimple is a pimple and it can be especially embarrassing when it’s noticeable- like smack in the middle of the nose. So to avoid resembling Rudolph, the first step is to create a blank canvas on your face by applying a foundation that is medium to full coverage. It doesn’t need to be super thick and cakey, but it should not be light coverage either like a tinted moisturizer.

*Then lightly dab a bit of concealer that matches your skin tone on the blemish with a concealer brush or your ring finger. Try a stick or cream concealer as it is heavier in texture and actually formulated for hiding imperfections. If you have a zit that is red, it is best to use a yellow or mint green concealer because it will counteract the redness.

*Next, lightly dust a translucent powder all over your face – especially the concealed blemish, to allow the concealer to last longer.

Rosacea

Rosacea is a skin condition that consists of chronic red or pink patches on the face- it basically looks like the face is always flushed. To conceal this issue, the best thing is to use a medium to full coverage foundation that is yellow based so the redness is counteracted, and also to even out the skin tone. Then follow with a loose powder to set the foundation.

Under Eye Circles

Dark circles underneath the eyes can be attributed to genetics or just a lack of sleep- but whatever the culprit is, no one likes raccoon eyes. The best way to hide under eye circles is to use a yellow based liquid concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin tone. Then set it with a very light dusting of translucent powder.

Scars

Every scar has a story behind them, but most women who have a scar wishes to hide it. Scars are probably the most challenging to conceal with traditional concealer and foundation, but thankfully the cosmetic industry has come a long way and more and more beauty products are delivering stellar results. One example is Dermablend (www.dermablend.com), a concentrated cosmetic line that is specifically formulated to hide scars and even tattoos. Dermablend is the ‘band-aid’ of makeup- from their quick fix concealer to their leg and body cover foundation; their products will certainly do the trick in hiding any flaw you have on your face or body.

With breakthrough cosmetics in this day in age, the skin and makeup industry is constantly enhancing their products and providing solutions to mask or minimize the appearance of almost any imperfection- even cellulite! (who knew?). Therefore no matter what your beauty dilemma is, chances are there is a revolutionary product to fix or hide your problem.
