Ombre concealer trend: A makeup hack you should know
In the world of makeup, there are no rules when it comes to creativity. People come up with various methods and hacks to create their desired makeup looks. One such hack that has been popular on social media lately is the 'ombre concealer' trend. It is all about blending sheer and simple products that do not feel heavy on the face.
Understanding the trend
The ombre concealer hack shows how the placement of your makeup may influence your look as a whole. With just one application, the goal is to conceal, brighten, and create an innocent flush. For this, you will need various concealer colors and a liquid blush. You will get a lifted, radiant under-eye appearance with a delicate hint of blush on the outer corners.
How to achieve the look
Stamping dots of makeup beneath your eyes is the first step in the process. Start with the lightest concealer shade close to the inner corner, then move to a darker shade in the middle, and finish with your preferred blush in the outermost corner. This trend accomplishes two functions at once - elevating the cheekbones and lightening the undereye area.
Here's what to note
Selecting a concealer that matches your skin tone won't work for this trend. A concealer that is the same color as your skin might make the area under your eyes look dull. Instead, choose one or two tones lighter; not lighter than that or you will end up looking chalky. Make sure to blend the products from the inner corner, moving outward.
Here's what the look aims to achieve
This technique involves mixing various concealer and blush colors to produce a seamless gradient effect. It is more like a rainbow of concealer and blush on the face. It can be used to cover a variety of skin imperfections, including redness, dark circles, hyperpigmentation, and blemishes, while also enhancing the contours and brightness of the area under the eyes.
