Best Ways to Use Concealer
1 Hiding Spots/Blemishes
We’ve all got spots and blemishes that we would rather were covered, and the best way to do this is to apply concealer with a damp sponge. The sponge helps to control your amount of coverage.
It’s always good to choose a concealer that is a shade darker than your foundation to make it looks seamless. Alternatively, go a shade lighter if you want to cover dark circles.
2 Covering Pigmentation
The biggest pigmentation areas include the nose, around the mouth, the eyelids and the chin. You want to start applying your concealer in feather-like strokes around these areas, using a small brush to blend and then a damp sponge to finish it off.
For pigmentation, a shade that matches your foundation is best, and you should use a large fluffy brush to set the concealer with translucent powder.

3 Hiding Under Dark Eye Circles
Less is more when you want to cover dark circles, starting with a little bit and building up until you have the desired coverage. Always start from your tear duct and apply feather like strokes.
Again, use a damp sponge the blend it in seamlessly, and if you need any extra coverage, just use a small brush to dab more on where you want it.
