Hi!
I have oily skin and and its more oily on the nose.And I have some faint marks and blemishes on my cheek.
Can you please suggest what kind of concealer/foundation should I use?
And can you also please tell me whats is the difference between concealers and foundation and which one is better to hide the marks on the face?!
Thanks!Concealer for oily skin?
try mineral concealer
from everydayminerals.com
they have a sample kit and you only pay for shipping.Concealer for oily skin?
Concealer is generally just used for covering spots and blemishes, whereas foundation is all over face make up. You should look specifically for foundations that are matte (i.e. Rimmel Stay Matte for a cheaper one, Clinique Matte for more expensive)
That is the key word.
get everyday minerals, it's amazing
my mom sells this line called ';All Clear'; or ';Beauty Controll'; and it has makeup and face gel and washes and stuff like that. you can find them online at www.beautipage.com it works really well to!
Concealer has more pigments than foundation. That means that it can give a lot more coverage with a very small amount. This is what you would use to cover up marks. It should be just a bit lighter than your foundation color. If it's difficult to find a good color, you can mix in a little bit of your foundation.
Foundation is used to help even out your skin tone. It can be applied before or after concealer (I usually apply it after concealer). A good foundation will also help protect your skin from pollutants in the environment.
For your oily skin, make sure that your cleanser and moisturizer are formulated for oily skin. It always has to start with good and proper skin care.
For any concealer, after applying, dust it with a little bit of loose powder (can be sheer powder, a loose powder that matches your foundation, or even just baby powder). That will help the concealer to set before you apply foundation.
Mineral powder foundations might be something you want to consider. They're very lightweight, and help control oil.
For a specific brand, I highly recommend Mary Kay. It's very high quality products for an affordable price. You can work with a Mary Kay Consultant to find the perfect colors before you buy. That way there's no fuss with returning and repurchasing to find the right shades. Go to http://www.marykay.com to look for a consultant in your area.
for foundation, Revlon Colorstay for oily skin (they have 3 types, for normal,dry %26amp; oily skin).
Foundation is for giving the face a more even finish %26amp; to smooth out uneven colorings.
Concealer is to hide small imperfections %26amp; under eye dark circles, I have never seen a concealer for specific skins, but I guess the liquid (brush,cream ones) are for drier skins %26amp; sticks (non-liquid ones) etc for oilier ones. I donot know which one to suggest but I'd go round trying different brands %26amp; see which one looks good or suits your skin tone. I use Bourjois brush concealer but I doubt it's good for oiler skins.
PS%26gt; I haven't tried this one, but have heard Rimmel Hide the Blemish is good. Test it %26amp; see whether it works.
