How to look great..even when you don’t feel your best.
Whether you’re fight a cold, feeling totally stressed out of just didn’t get enough zzz’s there’s no need to show it. ” Here are four ways to take cover.”
-
Missed your eight hours of Beauty Sleep? It only takes seconds to fake it. Lack of sleep can make the inner part of the lower lid red. Trace just below this area with the Dual Action Concealer wand to make eyes look more awake. The slim doe-foot applicator glides easily under eyes; blend well.
- Feeling under the Weather? A green corrector followed by an opaque shade-toned concealer can hide a red, runny nose. Try Cover UP in your skin
matching shade and Soft Green. Finish with a little Purely Mineral Bronzing Powder for a healthy allover glow.
- Got Dark Circles? Neutralize the bluish-tinge common on circles, which includes shadows and fine blood vessels near the surface of the skin, with a yellow base like Cover Up in Soft Yellow. If circles are more purplish-blue, use Lilac.
- Has Stress Blemished your Skin? Don’t let anxiety acne get you down. Create the illusion of a flat, blemish free surface with a matte opaque concealer like Cover Up. Using a shade lighter than the skin around the base of blemish, stipple the makeup on the area, then use feathery strokes around the edges to blend them into your skin. Prevent future flare-ups with Clear Complexion Spot Treatment.
