- 1). Choose a concealer and powder that best matches your skin tone. Many makeup counters and pharmacies have skin grafts that display color swatches you can match your skin to. Ask a representative to help or guide you in your selection. A great way to match your skin to a makeup is to apply a small amount to your hand and rub it in. This gives you an idea of what it will look like on your face. Beware of going too dark. You want your makeup to blend with your natural skin tone.
- 2). Apply the concealer with a fine foundation brush or cotton swabs to clean, moisturized skin. Alternatively, you can pat the concealer gently onto the mole or blemish with your finger. Remember concealer is meant to hide small blemishes or unevenness in skin tone and not to cover up major skin flaws. For hard to hide moles, scars and blemishse, tattoo makeup is advised. Tatoo makeup has a wider range of coverage and can be obtained online, from a local tattoo artist or bridal shop. Apply the concealer in a directional manner to avoid caking.
- 3). Blend the outer edges of concealer or tattoo makeup into your skin to appear without lines or distinction. Gently apply face powder to seal the concealer with a powder brush or makeup sponge to avoid smearing or smudging. If you find your mole is still visible, try a second application. Otherwise, seek a professional makeup artist or salesperson for coverage advice.
