Eye make up concealer actually has two functions:


It can act as a foundation

It can help to hide blemishes found around the eye


Eye make up concealers should be applied before applying eye makeup and should be used to hide any trouble spots. The best eye make up concealer for you will be one that can produce a flawless complexion and can be used with any of your eye make up styles including smoky eye makeup.

What Are The Best Eye Make Up Concealers?

The best eye make up concealers are ones that are available as creams and can also be found in tubes and sticks. They should also be water proof, light and creamy, and rich in vitamins. Your chosen eye make up concealer should also lighten dark areas of the skin and give an overall appearance of even skin tone.

Your eye make up concealer should also match your own skin tone and be used before applying eye makeup. Eye make up concealer should be applied to the inside of the nose bridge and the outer corners of the eye. You will need to ensure that the concealer does not get caught in the fine lines around the eye as this can make the overall appearance of your eye make up look very unnatural.

To combat this problem it is suggested that you apply moisturizer to your face before applying your concealer. You can also mix your concealer with a little eye cream.

How To Choose The Best Eye Make Up Concealer

There is a very simple test you can do that will help you to choose an eye make up concealer for your skin. If you apply a little of the concealer to a blue vein on your hand, and then see if the vein disappears. If it does, then this will be the eye make up concealer for you.

Choosing the best eye make up concealer will also depend on what it is that you want to conceal. If you want to reduce the appearance of redness, then a color correcting concealer in green is the best choice. A yellow concealer is ideal for covering bluish tinges and a lighter concealer will help to hide dark circles under your eyes.

The best eye make up concealer for dry skin is a liquid formula but if you just want to touch up particular areas then a brush on concealer is probably best.

The most important thing to remember when choosing your eye make up concealer, is to choose one that matches both your skin tone and your skin type, and will compliment all your eye make up styles.
