Cover Age Spots With These Effective Makeup Hacks

To have flawless, glowing skin, a lot of people need to cover their blemishes and age spots to achieve that flawless effect. At times, no remedies, whether homemade or medical, offer the appropriate solution. Right makeup with good quality foundation and concealer will surely help to disguise dark spots. So, do not hesitate to use the following makeup hacks to hide age spots.

Here are the most important steps to cover age spots:

Apply Primer and Color Corrector
This is an important makeup hack to hide age spots. Create an even canvas by applying primer carefully on your face. Smoothly apply it over the entire face, especially on target areas that have age spots. Also, apply a color corrector before putting a foundation or a flesh-toned concealer. These correctors are used to neutralize the appearance of dark spots. But make sure to pick the best shade for your skin tone. You can apply peach for fair to light skin tones, bisque color for light to medium skin tones, and orange for medium to deep skin tones.

Apply Foundation and Concealer to Brighten Your Complexion
Choose a foundation with a radiant finish. Blend it into the skin with a makeup blender. Make sure to apply the foundation gently on the skin, especially over the color corrector so that it does not disrupt it.

Swipe concealer under the eyes in an upside-down triangle. Start applying gently from between your brows to the bridge of your nose, and in the middle of your chin. This will instantly make your skin luminous while sculpting your face.

Apply Face Powder
To ensure that this look lasts all day, you must top it off with face powder. Using a fluffy brush will help you apply a thin layer of face powder to settle your makeup. Concealing age spots and dark circles with sloppy makeup only make them more prominent. Few techniques to ensure the right effect includes:

  • Pick the Right Concealer
    Look for a light, creamy concealer that can be easily blended so that it does not highlight any fine lines or wrinkles. A green-toned concealer will reduce redness. A yellow-toned concealer will hide the dark bluish circles. If you select the normal flesh-toned concealers, it is best to use a shade lighter than your skin tone to brighten up the area. Be careful not to select a formula that’s cakey and dry.
  • Apply Corectly at the Right Spots
    Dab the concealer only on spots where you have dark circles with gentle hands. Use a very soft brush to gently dab the concealer. You can also use your index finger. Dabbing gives a perfect airbrushed appearance to the skin. Never rub since rubbing gives a streaky finish. Blend around the rest of your eye using a soft sponge. Set with a translucent powder and mist it to achieve flawless and dewy looking skin with an attractive hydrated glow.

So, prep your skin to disguise dark spots and achieve perfection. Adopt easy yet effective makeup hacks to hide age spots and get a fresh and glowing skin instantly.
