concealer

[Tiny E. A]

I was watching one of these makeover programmes the other day and they advised you to use different coloured concealers or foundations on different colours, one of them was use a greeny colour to hide redness in the skin. Does anyone know what the best colour is to conceal purple circles under the eyes? The normal skin tone concealers just make them look grey.

just read back and someone mentions that a yellowy concealer is best but someone else says a greeny one. Can anyone confirm either way?

I would say a greeny one would be better

You go for colours opposite each other on the colour wheel and purple and green are opposite colours

Ahhh, that would make sense, cheers!

Hi Tiny E. A
Yes, I would agree that green is the better colour to use.
You can actually buy green concealer and a light foundation in Boots. They have their own brand.
It does work.

I use the green one from Boots, as my skin goes very red and blotchy when I've been out drinking and dancing - it looks funny when you first put it on, very Elphaba, but it blends in and is then hidden by foundation. I love, wouldn't go out boogying without it.
