The ever trusty, multi-purpose concealer. Oh, how we love thee.
Whether it’s the everyday make-up bag or travel kit, concealer is a beauty essential that we have with us 24/7.
Flawless Concealer
It’s told that the first concealers were used in the 1920’s as make-up to camouflage burns, birthmarks and varicose veins. Following this concealers were also created for famous Hollywood actresses keen to look their very best on-screen and similarly, they were after a product that could hide skin imperfections, fine lines and to brighten their skin.
These days depending on what you are trying to achieve, concealers are found in a few different forms - liquid, stick, crayon, cream or cream-to-powder. For example our Flawless Concealer is a stick concealer providing a creamy full coverage with a satin matte finish, and it’s perfect for camouflaging dark circles, pigmentation and imperfections.

The top 5 key benefits for using make-up concealer are considered as being:
- Works with foundation to provide additional coverage to achieve the appearance of a smooth, even skin tone
- Refreshes tired looking eyes
- To disguise puffiness, blemishes, scars and imperfections
- Camouflage pigmentation and dark circles
- Lighten dark areas
A few lesser known and further great ways concealer is used include:
- As a highlighter over cheekbones, brow, chin and nose bridge
- To prevent lipstick from bleeding; either by priming the lips with concealer, or by adding a little concealer above the lip line
- As a base before applying eyeshadow
- Hide tattoos and birthmarks
When it comes to applying make-up concealer there are different thoughts around whether concealer should be applied before or after foundation. Our suggestion is - if you are using a liquid foundation, use concealer following application of your foundation. If instead you’re using a powder foundation, apply your concealer first.
At Nude by Nature we have two make-up concealers; the Perfecting Concealer and Flawless Concealer.
Perfecting Concealer & Flawless Concealer
