Concealer Tips

Concealing Truths


· Banish blemishes by choosing a concealer shade that matches your skin tone and foundation. Apply a light “veil” of concealer directly to the blemish and use your ring finger to lightly pat around the edges to blend.


· You can mix a little of your Mary Kay foundation with your concealer to help get the perfect match.


· Late night? Apply Mary Kay concealer along the bottom edge of under eye dark circles and extend up. Be sure to include the inside corners of the eyes. Avoid getting concealer below the dark circles, or you’ll lighten the skin you’re trying to match.

Beauty Tips: Using Metallics

For Eyes

· Apply granite mineral eye color on the lid and inner corner of the lower lashline
· Apply amber blaze mineral eye color on the brow bone
· Line upper and lower lashes with black eyeliner

For Cheeks
· brush golden copper mineral cheek color across cheekbones

For Lips

· Line lips with pink lip liner
· Apply shell lipstick with a lip brush
· To complete the lip look, apply gold rush lip gloss to the top and bottom lips

Makeup Artist Tips:

· On warmer skin tones, don’t let metallic shades go all the way to the brow bone – keep the punch of color closer to the lash line
· Experiment with different metallic tones – the effect is beautiful when you mix platinum with denims, gold with olives
· When using a lip brush, make sure you have plenty of color on the brush for smooth, even coverage.
