Every woman has a blemish or under-eye circle that they want to hide. While we wish they would just go away, making them disappear with the magic of mineral make-up is the next best thing. Mineral make-up does not clog your pores. It gives you a natural, light finish that lets your skin breath. Here is how to use the make-up correctly to quickly and easily conceal those unwanted spots.
Every woman has a blemish or under-eye circle that they want to hide. While we wish they would just go away, making them disappear with the magic of mineral make-up is the next best thing. Mineral make-up does not clog your pores. It gives you a natural, light finish that lets your skin breath. Here is how to use the make-up correctly to quickly and easily conceal those unwanted spots.
Step One
You must first prepare the make-up for application. Gently shake the tube of concealer so the powder is distributed on top of the shaker.
Step 2
Remove the attached brush from the tube (without scattering the powder everywhere!). Dip the brush into the excess powder that should now be on the top of the shaker. Tap off any extra powder that is on the brush back onto the shaker.
Step 3
To cover a blemish, tap the make-up onto your spot until it is completely covered. This should take two to three taps. You might need to use more powder (repeat step two). Do this with each blemish on your face.
Step 4
To conceal under-eye circles, add more powder to your brush. Gently sweep the brush over the dark area. By lightly sweeping the area, you will avoid accentuating fine lines and wrinkles.
Step 5
Apply regular mineral make-up to the rest of your face with gentle swirling motions. This will even out your skin tone and give you a smooth finish.
Step 6
Admire yourself (and your new flawless complexion) with a smile in the mirror.
