welcome!

there’s 2 parts to flawless under eye concealing: covering it + airbrushed finish

how to cover dark circles: 1. you’ll either need a color correcting concealer or a regular concealer (or both for extra coverage) 2. using your fingers, apply a THIN  layer of color correcting concealer onto the dark areas- tap it in gently, fingers will help melt the product into the skin 3. take a creamy liquid concealer and tap it on top of the corrector and bring it down so it goes over your skin with foundation on already 4. blend in by tapping it gently again with your fingers and make sure you evenly spread out the product and dont be afraid to bring/blend it up to your hairline area

products i recommend for it: • tarte cc under eye corrector • benefit erase paste • bobbi brown corrector • urban decay naked skin concealer • mac pro longwear concealer (esp if you’re oily) • nars radiant creamy concealer

next, how to have the most perfect photoshopped, airbrushed finish: 1. super lightly tap off excess moisture of concealer with a dry or damp sponge 2. take a sponge (could be a beautyblender or one of those triangular ones that you can bulk buy) and take a translucent loose powder 3. pack it onto the area you applied concealer- seriously dont be scared to go ham with this, translucent loose powder is the one makeup product you can cake on without looking cakey 4. this is basically baking so just leave it on there for a couple minutes, move on to your brows or somethin 5. take a smaller fluffy brush and blend away the excess powder

products i recommend for it: • the one and only laura mercier translucent loose powder

I’ve found exact dupes for the MakeupForever Flash Palettes! They retail for $100 and I found dupes that are $12.69 with free shipping! Same exact color, packaging, ingredients, everything!

If you’re a makeup artist or makeup enthusiast, i’m sure at some point you’ve heard about the Makeup Forever Flash Palettes. The makeup palettes can be used for so many things, foundation, concealer, color correcting, liner, shadows, lipstick, blush, face paint and i’m sure many more uses. In theatre and special FX terms these are cream paints, the MUF ones and the dupes so they have many uses BUT if you want them to last then you have to set them.
