FAQs

What type of imperfections does this concealer cover?

This concealer is specifically formulated to camouflage extreme imperfections such as wounds, scars, moles, skin depigmentation, birthmarks, and even tattoos.

How do I choose the correct shade?

It is crucial to choose a shade that is two tones lighter than your natural skin color, as the formula tends to darken slightly as it dries.

Is this concealer waterproof?

Yes, the Make Up For Ever Full Cover Concealer features a waterproof formula, ensuring long-lasting wear and resistance to moisture.

Can I use this for everyday minor blemishes?

While it can cover minor blemishes, its high coverage is designed for extreme imperfections. For minor blemishes, apply a very small amount and blend carefully to avoid a heavy look.

How should I apply it for the best results?

Apply a tiny amount to the imperfection, then gently tap or pat with a clean finger, brush, or damp sponge to blend. Build up coverage in thin layers if necessary. Avoid rubbing.

How long does the coverage last?

Thanks to its stable, long-wearing formula, this concealer is designed to resist extreme conditions and maintain coverage all day long.

What's the best way to remove this concealer?

Due to its waterproof nature, it's best removed with an oil-based makeup remover or a dedicated waterproof makeup remover to ensure thorough cleansing without excessive scrubbing.

Does it work on all skin types?

The creamy formula is generally suitable for most skin types. For very oily skin, setting with a translucent powder is recommended for extended wear and shine control.

Troubleshooting

Concealer appears too dark after drying.

The formula darkens as it sets. Ensure you select a shade two tones lighter than your natural skin color, as explicitly recommended by the brand. If your current shade is too dark, try the next lighter available option.

Coverage isn't smooth or looks cakey.

Apply a very small amount and blend thoroughly. Build up coverage in thin layers, rather than applying a thick layer all at once. Ensure your skin is well-moisturized and prepped before application, and avoid over-applying.

Concealer is not lasting all day.

Ensure the area is clean and dry before application. For oily skin or high humidity, lightly set the concealed area with a translucent powder. The product is designed to be long-wearing; re-evaluate your application technique and skin prep.

Difficult to blend into skin seamlessly.

Warm a tiny amount of product on the back of your hand before applying to increase pliability. Use a dabbing or patting motion with your finger or a dense, damp beauty sponge for seamless blending, rather than rubbing.

Concealer settles into fine lines.

Apply a minimal amount and blend very well, especially around the eyes. Consider using a hydrating eye cream beforehand. Lightly set with a finely milled translucent powder to prevent creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Choosing Your Shade:

The most critical aspect of using this concealer effectively is shade selection. Due to the formula's tendency to `darken as it dries`, always choose a FULL COVER that is two shades lighter than your natural skin color. Test a small amount on your jawline or inner arm, allow it to dry completely, and then check the color match in natural light.

Initial Setup & Application:

  1. Prep Your Skin: Ensure your skin is clean, moisturized, and primed (if you use a primer) before application. This creates a smooth canvas for the concealer.
  2. Dispense Carefully: A little goes a long way. Squeeze a tiny amount onto the back of your hand or a clean mixing palette.
  3. Apply and Blend: Use a clean fingertip, a dense concealer brush, or a damp beauty sponge to apply the product. *Pat* or *dab* the concealer onto the area you wish to cover. Avoid rubbing, as this can sheer out the coverage.
  4. Layering: For very stubborn imperfections, apply in thin layers, allowing each layer to set slightly before adding more. This builds coverage without caking.
  5. Setting: For extra longevity and to prevent transfer, lightly set the concealed area with a translucent setting powder, especially in humid conditions or for oily skin types.

Compatibility:

This concealer is highly versatile and can be used with most foundations and powders. For best results, use it over a clean, moisturized base. Its robust formula means it pairs well with makeup that requires long-wear properties.

Product Care:

  • Storage: Store the tube in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its stability and texture.
  • Hygiene: Always use clean tools (brushes, sponges, or fingers) when applying the product to prevent contamination.
  • Cap Securely: Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to maintain its efficacy.
