As long as the concealer is opaque, you'll be set, she notes. Not sure which concealer to use? Hughes' top three picks are the Innisfree Matte Full Cover Concealer, the Wander Beauty Dualist Matte and Illuminating Concealer, and Nars's beloved Radiant Creamy Concealer. Once you blend it out, though, you'll notice your undereye concealer coordinates perfectly with the rest of your face. Hughes says the shade you pick based on that random area may seem to be too dark at first. This prevents you from picking a concealer shade that is too pink or too light, which can create "a much muddier version of what you already have under your eyes," she adds.īy Elle Turner, Lottie Winter, Fiona Embleton and Sheilla Mamona Hughes says she happened upon this trick by accident while on set one day and now she swears by it.īecause this little region isn't as susceptible to redness as the rest of your face, "it's the most neutral-toned part of your face," she tells Allure. However, it's the key to making concealer look seamless with the rest of your makeup and not like ghostly pale rims around your eyes. I don't even know what to call that part of the face because I rarely consider it an individual region that needs attention. She looks to the area between the nose and apple of the cheek when picking which shade of undereye concealer to use on herself or one of her clients. Instead of reaching for a thick, peachy colour corrector or a brightening concealer, Hughes uses a colour-matching technique I've never heard of before. Yes, I felt like a teacher's pet, but it was necessary. It was so unexpected that I had to catch up with her afterward because I needed to know everything. Also, made me oily and kind of slides off my face after 2-3 hours (first foundation ever to do that to me).Ĭhantecaille Just Skin Tinted Moisturizer in Bliss - LOVE!!!! Could this be my HG? Beautiful natural dewy finish, covers everything that needs to be covered (redness, blemishes), but still manages to let the skin show through (I can still see my freckles!).At a master class with Katie Jane Hughes recently, the New York City-based makeup artist revealed her trick for concealing dark circles. 02 was the right tone, but too light, 04 the right shade but a tad too pink. Yves Saint Laurent Perfect Touch Radiant Brush Foundation in 5 Peach - good color match (not peachy at all, except in name, lol), overall very pretty, VERY sheer foundation, gives a nice luminosity and glow to the skin, evens out tone somewhat.īy Terry Sheer Expert Foundation - also not the best color match for me. Still, a beautiful foundation, very "liquidy", that could be applied in a very sheer manner (half a pump can easily be stretched to the entire face) or easily buildable without being cakey, as it is very pigmented. 12 Rose Clair wasn't too light nor too dark, but too pink. 02 Beige Clair was too light and too yellow, 03 Beige Naturel too dark. Guerlain Lingerie de Peau - sadly, there was no good color match for me in this one. Unfortunately, it made my skin break out like crazy, so that's that.Ĭhantecaille Future Skin Foundation in Vanilla - perfect color match, but unfortunately did not look good on me. Just makes you look like you have absolutely gorgeous skin, not a great foundation, really amazing. Ellis Faas Skin Veil foundation in 102 (104 when tanned).
