Concealment

noun |kənˈsiːlm(ə)nt|

the action of hiding something or preventing it from being known.




I've always been pretty laidback when it comes to my makeup routine - I tend keep it simple, and I can usually apply a full face of (albeit simple) makeup in roughly 10 minutes if I have to. And lately, since I'm now working full time and need to be out the door ASAP most days, I've started shunning the ole foundation in favour of a few dabs of concealer and a good powder. This H&M concealer is a God send. I usually struggle to find any kind of face makeup that really matches my skin, but this concealer in Alabaster, the lightest shade, is literally perfect! I apply this under my eyes, inbetween my eyes and onto my forehead a little bit, down my nose, on my chin and any areas that are red or any spots. Blend away with my beauty blender, (just a cheapie from Primark!) put some translucent powder over the concealer to set it and then use some pressed powder or bronzer all over. So quick and easy and out the door! This Vichy one gives brilliant coverage but I usually use this underneath foundation if I have a lot of time to do my makeup, if I'm going out or something. It's a little bit off colour but underneath foundation it's perfect and as I said gives amazing coverage for red patches or spots!

These are my go to concealers at the moment, have you tried these? Or what are your favourites? Let me know in the comments! :)
