Choosing Concealer Shades: Green, Orange, or Yellow?
When selecting a concealer, it's crucial to choose the right shade to effectively cover blemishes without creating unwanted shadows. Makeup artist Lázzaro Alves explains that the technique involves neutralizing the color of the imperfection before covering it. Green concealer is used to neutralize redness, yellow helps with purple and small bruises, peach is ideal for dark circles on light and medium skin tones, and orange works well for dark spots on black skin. After neutralization, a concealer matching the skin tone is applied followed by foundation. Common mistakes include using a concealer that's too light and applying too much product.
