After a certain age, wrinkles and fine lines under the eyes make it harder to look flawless makeup. If you choose the wrong products or don’t apply them correctly, the concealer it can make you look more tired and add years to your appearance. Here are the most common ones mistakes with the concealer you should avoid:

1. You are not moisturizing the area properly

Dehydration makes skin look more tired and mature. It is very important to make sure to moisturize your skin before applying makeup. You can use a moisturizing eye cream with a gel texture or a primer that “erases” fine lines and wrinkles, making the concealer apply more evenly.

2. You choose the wrong shade of concealer

The concealer should be 1-2 tones lighter than your skin to brighten the under eye area. A salmon undertone will help neutralize dark circles. If it’s not the right shade, the result can make you look tired and accentuate the signs of aging.

3. You use too much

Using too much product can make makeup look “heavy” and accentuate wrinkles. Prefer light concealers with a serum texture, which hydrate and provide coverage without weighing down your skin. Also, make sure to do a good blending so that it spreads evenly.

4. You don’t set the concealer

If you don’t set the concealer, it can settle into the fine lines under the eyes. Apply a small amount of translucent, light powder to keep the concealer in place and avoid this problem.
