Applying your concealer
Types of complexion corrector
🌱 Concealer
The concealer is available in 4 shades: Ivory, Nude, Shell Beige and Dark Beige. This one will camouflage dark circles by enhancing the eyes and rectifying the complexion. For an application on dark circles, we advise you to use a shade lighter than your skin tone. The area under the eyes is slightly lighter, so this should be taken into account when choosing your concealer. Check out our "How to choose your concealer" guide for more details 😉
Easy to apply thanks to its stick format, the Charlotte Bio concealer will also correct imperfections locally. It is important to opt for a shade that matches your skin tone for the most natural look.
🌱 Green corrector
The green corrector corrects redness locally. How does it actually work? The green colour of the corrector will oppose the red and therefore camouflage in one application the small redness of the skin.
If you want to conceal an imperfection, use the green concealer first, then apply the concealer of your skin colour. Hup, the imperfections are camouflaged!🪄
Prepare your skin before applying your concealer
1️⃣ Clean your skin well
Before applying your makeup, it is necessary to clean your face well so that your skin is clean. This step is crucial and will make the makeup easier!
We advise you to wash your face with our makeup remover gel and/or the milky water.💦
2️⃣ Apply a face cream
Once your skin is clean, you need to moisturise your skin. In order to nourish it properly, we recommend using a moisturiser. Applying a moisturising cream will make the makeup step easier for you.
3️⃣ Put on a foundation
Charlotte's team advises you to use a foundation if you have combination to oily skin. To be applied after your moisturizer, it will blur small imperfections and unify the complexion. A small dab is enough to set your makeup all day! 👌🏽
Which applicator to choose for the complexion corrector?
🖌 The brush
Often used by the pros, the concealer brush has a rounded shape that allows for precise and even application. To make up dark circles, simply pick up the texture directly with the brush and blend it from the inside out. For imperfections, take a small amount of concealer and tap it onto the area to be covered up.
Little tips from Charlotte's Team 💁🏼♀️: remember to clean your brushes well once or twice a week!
🧽 The sponge or beauty-blender
Ideal for a natural look, the beauty blender will camouflage imperfections and dark circles to perfection!
1st technique: Apply concealer or concealer directly to the area you want to camouflage, then tap with the sponge.
Technique 2: Put a little concealer on your hand, then use your beauty blender to pick up some material and apply it to the areas you want to cover.
It's important to clean your sponge well regularly to avoid small imperfections popping up without warning!
👋🏽 Fingers
This is the best way if you're not comfortable with a brush or sponge. However, it's not the most practical. Your fingers are covered in concealer...
But if you're more comfortable with this technique, we recommend applying concealer or concealer to the desired area first, then tapping with your fingers to blend the texture.
