How to Use Mineral Concealer + Corrector

What is the best way to apply mineral concealer?

Always moisturize before applying concealer. If using an eye cream, choose a light one that will absorb quickly. Then apply with either a concealer brush or ring finger (least amount of pressure) for optimal blending. Pat in gentle motions, rather than rubbing. To lock concealer into place use a powder.

If you need more than one hue to complete your look, no problem. You can use multiple colors and target the necessary area to brighten under eyes, to correct redness on lids, or to blend shades together to perfectly hide discoloration. It's powder, so it mixes with the warmth of your skin, leaving you with smooth, sheer coverage. Use these bright hues to correct the color and then cover it with your foundation.  Mineral corrector is meant to be worn under makeup. Go light when you're layering over a corrector because you don't want the end product to look too thick, especially around your eyes.
