Color Theory About Color Correcting Concealer For Bigginers 

What nobody tells you about concealer is that different skin concerns call for different colors and textures. To match your skin tone, choose a concealer shade that is half a shade lighter than your foundation shade. It’s essential to pay attention to words like “neutral,” “cool,” “warm”, and “beige.”

You can take full advantage of the color theory when it comes to concealers. On the color wheel, the colors across from each other on the spectrum are opposites. Hence they cancel each other out when used for color correction.

• Green is the opposite of red
• Orange is the opposite of blue
• Yellow is the opposite of purple

Let me simplify it further with a little more explanation.

1. DARK CIRCLES

Whether you didn’t catch enough sleep last night or are just predisposed to dark circles, sometimes you just want to hide the appearance of tired-looking eyes. The trick to accomplishing such a task is to pick the right color correcting concealer shade. Look for a concealer with ORANGE OR PEACHY PIGMENT to help counteract the appearance of under-eye circles with a bluish tint.

2. DISCOLORATION

Unless your complexion truly is perfect (in which case, no fair), you probably have at least a bit of discoloration, such as dark spots, here and there. Your quick fix: YELLOW CONCEALER The sunny shade is able to neutralize the appearance of blue and purple tones that typically mark discolorations.

3. BLEMISHES 

Breakouts are a total pain, and it doesn’t help that sometimes they seem nearly impossible to keep under wraps. If you struggle to cover your blemishes, it’s time to set your sights on GREEN CONCEALER . Think back to that beginner’s art class you took. Red and green sit on opposite sides of the color wheel, making them the perfect picks to disguise one another.

4. DULL SPOTS

You may associate purple with royalty, but did you know you should be linking violet and lavender hues with fighting the appearance of dullness? If your skin seems like it’s a little lackluster, BLUE OR PASTEL PURPLE CONCEALER could be the answer. Purple helps balance out the look of yellow and uneven tones, making it just right for fixing the appearance of sallow spots. Besides applying concealer directly to dull spots and any areas where you could use additional radiance, try blending a lavender concealer around the edges of your face for an overall brightening effect.

I hope that this will help you to pick out the right color corrector for yourself that would go well with your skin issue!
