Troubleshooting: Corrector or Concealer


If it creases


Using enough powder applied correctly is key. If you skimp, it will end up creasing.


If it’s cakey


The ratio of eye cream to concealer is off.


If it’s too light


Use an extremely light dusting of light bronzing powder to warm up the area.


If it’s not bright enough or if it’s too dark


Try to add a bit of fast-absorbing eye cream, then repeat corrector and concealer.


If the eye makeup transfers to the concealer


Use eye makeup remover, a cotton swab, or a sponge and remove all under-eye product. Start over with eye cream, and let it absorb before applying other eye
makeup.


Clean brush between corrector and concealer steps.


CONCEALER LIGHTENS


Concealer should be one or two shades lighter than your foundation and yellow in tone to blend as it lightens. Apply after corrector in most cases.


1 Apply concealer generously under the eyes starting at the recessed area at the innermost corner of each eye.

2 Cover the entire area below the lower lash line to cover any darkness or redness.

3 To blend the concealer, gently warm it between your fingers and then press it into the skin.
