Question:
Concealer/foundation for facial veins
Hello...
Newbie here...
:wave:
I need some advice re concealer/foundation...
I have fairly sensitive, pale skin which is generally clear and well behaved. The only thing is that I have visible veins in my cheeks, which I am quite self-conscious about, as I'm only 23 (I do want to get them lasered eventually, but I have to save up the money).
I like to wear tinted moisturiser/light foundation with a concealer over my cheeks, but the concealer I have been using just isn't doing the job properly (Rimmel Hide the Blemish), and I wondered if any of you had a recommendation? Obviously I need one that will cover redness, and probably one that isn't a powder as sometimes get dry patches on my cheeks and powders tend to draw attention to that...
Please help!
Thanks!!
Hi there loffle! :) :wave:
For a concealer, I would take a trip to MAC to try the studio finish, which are very good. I think they're around £10 and come in a range of colours including very pale ones.
I have just brought the Laura Mercier secret camaflage (sp) concealer which although it's £25, it's amazing! The best thing I have tried to far. The SA even told me you can cover up tatoos with it! Personally, I much prefer it to the MAC one.
If you use a good concealer, then i'm guessing the tinted moisturiser that you are currently using will be okay? :D
Thanks! I should get myself to a MAC counter!
I don't mind paying a bit extra if something is really good though - so I will check out Laura Mercier!
Thanks!
