6 Smart-Girl Ways to Use Your Concealer

It’s no secret that we expect our products to work overtime. But often, we manage to overlook the multi-tasking potential of one particular makeup staple: concealer.

Yes, we already use the stuff to hide surprise pimples and erase the signs of a broken heart (eyebags, anyone?). Still, if you want to be really smart about it, there at least 6 other ways to get the most out of your concealer. Read on!

1. ENHANCE YOUR MAKEUP COLORS
Because it comes in flesh tones, concealer can be used as a base to make your lipsticks and eyeshadows pop. Dab a little over your lips, lids, or both to neutralize your skin tone, then apply your color on top. The effect will be much more vibrant.

2. PRIME YOUR LIPS & LIDS
Besides intensifying color, concealer also doubles as a primer for the same areas of your face. A nice, semi-dense formula can help prevent slipping and sliding throughout the day. A great tip in case you find yourself running low on lip and lid primer!

3. CLEAN UP YOUR LIPSTICK
The struggle of applying perfectly contoured lipstick is all too real. When you make a mistake, simply trace concealer over smears the smear and blend gently to clean it up.

4. SALVAGE A CROOKED CAT EYE
Cat-eye looking crooked? Don’t sweat it. You can easily correct the problem without wiping off your handiwork. Just dip a thin liner brush into a cream concealer and wipe away mistakes for that #OnFleek flick.
