A blemish
is a mar in the skin caused by pimples, blocked pores, a skin
rash or scarring. Instead of feeling uncomfortable with how
you look, keep a few basic makeup supplies on hand to conceal
blemishes.
Steps:
1. Wash your hands before handling your face.
Dirt and oils on your hands will only aggravate the blemish.
2. Choose a concealer appropriate to the
color and type of blemish you wish to hide. Concealer is a
creamier foundation makeup with added pigments intended for
specific parts of your face.
3. Pick a yellow-tinted concealer to hide
red blemishes; choose a concealer a little lighter than your
blemish for hiding darker marks.
4. Choose a masking cosmetic (which is thicker
than concealer and has added pigment) to hide more prominent
blemishes, such as small scars left from pimples or skin irregularities.
5. Apply the concealer or masking cosmetic
over the blemish using your finger, an eye shadow brush or
sponge.
