CONCEALER FAQS

  • Concealer’s name says it all: It’s a versatile product that evens skin tone, helps brighten the undereye area to eliminate the look of dark circles and conceals blemishes. Concealers come in liquid and cream forms and offer coverage that ranges from sheer to full in matte and radiant finishes.

  • Full-coverage concealers are primarily used to cover red spots, acne scarring, dark spots or other blemishes you’re looking to hide. Sheer coverage provides subtle coverage, allowing your natural skin tone to show through. Full-coverage, cream-based concealers help you achieve an immaculate, blemish-free-looking complexion while still being lightweight enough to wear under the eyes without creasing or caking. Try STUDIO FIX EVERY-WEAR ALL-OVER FACE PEN for a medium-to-full buildable coverage with 36 hours of wear.

  • When choosing between a liquid vs. cream concealer, consider your skin and the look you want to achieve. Liquid concealers are thinner and more versatile, offering sheer-to-medium coverage with buildable matte and radiant finishes. They’re perfect for days where you want light coverage while still correcting small spots or brightening the undereye area. We recommend the STUDIO FIX 24-HOUR SMOOTH WEAR CONCEALER – a lightweight, long-wearing liquid concealer that provides a soft matte finish.

    Cream concealers are thicker and offer more opaque coverage. They’re typically worn over your FOUNDATION on days you’re looking to really cover up specific areas. The STUDIO FIX CONCEAL AND CORRECT PALETTE is a perfect way to discover the power of cream concealers.

  • Concealer is designed to add extra coverage to certain areas. You’ll want to apply your foundation first to create an even canvas and then follow-up with concealer to add additional coverage to specific spots. However, if you are using a powder foundation, apply your concealer first.

  • Matte concealers are perfect for oil-prone skin because they help visibly reduce shine, giving you smoother, immaculate-looking skin. The PRO LONGWEAR CONCEALER, our lightweight liquid, long-lasting concealer provides a comfortable matte finish that lasts all day.

  • Natural-finish concealers give skin that I-woke-up-like-this effect. They give you a no-makeup makeup look while still doing what concealers are meant to do: camouflage blemishes and colour-correct skin.

  • Radiant concealers give the skin a luminous quality. They are essential for brightening the undereyes and adding a lifting effect to areas on the face. Try STUDIO RADIANCE 24HR LUMINOUS LIFT CONCEALER – our natural radiant finish concealer created to highlight, brighten and lift.

  • How you apply your concealer matters just as much as the formula itself. Apply concealer to any areas of concern in a stippling motion with a 270S BRUSH, fingertip or a makeup sponge.
    Layer as needed.

  • To diminish the look of dark circles, you’ll want to reach for a radiant concealer that brightens and lifts the eye area. Our STUDIO RADIANCE 24HR LUMINOUS LIFT CONCEALER works instantly to conceal, hydrate, brighten and lift while diminishing the look of dark circles over time by 18%*.
