This pot of concealer from Ariana Grande’s makeup label might be small, but don’t underestimate it: a little truly does go a long way, masking exactly what you want to hide with just a minute quantity of product. The range of 60 shades lends itself to a myriad applications: it provides a soft matte finish as a concealer, but depending on the shade you choose, you can use it to carve out an enviable bone structure or diffuse it out as a full-face foundation.
Finding your shade for all-over concealing: Choose a shade closest to your skin tone. Identify your shade level (fair-rich) & undertone. Shades progress in depth as you go from 1-10 within your shade level.
For spot concealing: Use a concealer the same shade as your foundation. To conceal a pesky blemish, dab some concealer on top and wait 2 minutes before blending it out.
For brightening: Choose a shade at least 1-2 shades lighter than your skin tone or use fair 1 for the ultimate, bright white highlight.
For correcting: Choose a colour correcting shade within the lineup. A pink-toned concealer helps conceal blue and purple tones in lighter skin and covers up dark spots and dark circles under the eyes. An orange-red concealer helps cancel out dark areas on darker-toned skin. A yellow concealer neutralises redness around the mouth and the nose and brightens the undereye area. Top with a skin tone shade to even out complexion.
For contouring: Choose a shade at least 2-3 shades deeper than your skin tone.
To lighten a shade: Mix in our true white: fair 1
To use rich 10, the blue-black shade: Use to deepen the tan to rich shades and make them cooler, correct what you need, and contour the richest skin tones. A little goes a long way, so use sparingly and add as needed.
