Concealer and Correction Theory

You will be able to apply concealer to correct negative colors and blemishes in as thin an application as possible

 Concealer is also called Paramedical Make Up or Camouflage Make Up

 Correcting Color

• First identify the problem color the OPPOSITE color on the color wheel (get one from an art supply store - it is priceless) will neutralize the problem color

Red is neutralized by Green, however, Yellow is a better choice, otherwise you will have a green spot

Blue is neutralized by Orange

Counter Balance

• If someone’s skin is too yellow, add a bit of red to balance
• If someone’s skin is too red, add some yellow to balance
• Use very sparingly

First thing to do:

1.      Analyze the face

2.      Base first – if base can’t cover, then

3.      Conceal first, light layer of powder, then base

4.      Conceal, powder lightly, base, conceal again

Cream on Cream and Powder on Powder

Do not put powder on cream only – blush and eye shadow won’t move and won’t look right if you use base only, must powder first, then blush and eye shadow
