When using concealer to cover dark circles or blemishes under the eyes, it's important to choose a formula that is lightweight and hydrating like our Real Flawless Weightless Perfecting Serum Concealer. This serum infused concealer helps skin stay hydrated and avoids that cakey look. Heavy concealers can settle into fine lines and creases, accentuating the problem. After concealing, blend well and then set with a translucent powder to prevent creasing.

Setting powder is a crucial step in preventing caking and ensuring your makeup lasts all day. After applying your concealer and foundation, dip your Velour Puff into setting powder, working powder into puff by folding and rubbing the halves together (it shoudl look like a taco).
