When it comes to nurturing and beauty, makeup helps us conceal redness or any other skin imperfections. All you need to do is find the right concealer and know some great tips about how to use it. In this article, BEBE AFRIKANA presents to you tips on how to conceal skin problems effectively.
SCARS
Scars, including old acne or chickenpox marks, can be effectively covered using a concealer but it can be a time-consuming process. Begin by building the indentation up to skin level by dotting on layers of concealer. This is best applied using a fine brush. Take your time and allow each layer to settle into the skin properly.

Opt for a creamy, stick, concealer or a liquid one, as dry formulations emphasize fine lines around your eyes. If you are blending with your fingertips, use your ring finger, as this is the weakest finger and less likely to drag at the delicate skin around your eyes.
SPOT BLEMISHES
The ideal solution is to use a medicated stick concealer as these ingredients to deal with the pimple or blemish as well as cover it. Only apply the concealer on the pimple or blemish, as it can get quite drying, and then smooth away the edges with a clean cotton bud(swab). Applying concealer all around the area will make the spot more noticeable.
RED VEINS
Stick or liquid concealer is ideal for tackling this problem. Apply a layer of concealer over the area with a fine eyeliner brush or clean cotton bud, then carefully feather and soften the edges to blend them in and make them less noticeable.
