In Search Of The Perfect Concealer

 

Covering under-eye circles and skin blemishes sounds simple enough, so why are you and millions of others still looking for that perfect concealer? Take a tip from the pros – and stop searching.

 

There are two items you’ll find in every makeup artist’s case - and neither one is a concealer. What you WILL find are two colors especially designed to visibly eliminate under eye circles and redness. This is pure Hollywood movie magic, strictly an industry insider’s tool.

 

Here’s how it works: every color in our spectrum has its own opposite color. To mask discoloration, makeup artists simply apply the opposite or neutralizing color to specific problem areas on the face. For redness, including splotchy skin, blemishes, acne, birthmarks and broken capillaries, an olive tone neutralizes the redness. For dark circles, veins and bruises (all of which are in the blue spectrum), a red tone neutralizes the blue.

Throw out your concealer

 

So, instead of covering up with thick concealers and foundations, the discolorations can be neutralized with a thin application of the opposing or complimentary color. These special color blockers eliminate the need for heavy layers of makeup. No more cakey look. No more raccoon look. Almost like magic, ugly under-eye circles seem to vanish and the redness and age spots neutralize and virtually disappear.

 

Foundation is applied on top, and you have a flawless, natural look!

 

Red Blocker Debut

This Hollywood make-up secret began with the shooting of the movie, The Hawaiians. Due to sunburn, the light skinned actors’ skin tones fluctuated a lot from one scene to the next. The make-up department desperately needed something that would mask the redness, and look natural at the same time. Concealers and foundations were too thick and cakey, and they didn’t hold up in the humidity, anyway.

 

Applying their knowledge of the color spectrum, the make-up artists used an olive undertone (the opposite or complimentary color of red) to neutralize the redness. This trick alone made the redness virtually disappear from sight.

 

Blue Blocker’s Big Break

It can take 14 hours to create 3 to 5 minutes of film. So it’s important to make sure the actors look the same from the start of the shoot day to the end. Blue Blocker began as a beard cover – to hide the leading man’s five o’clock shadow.

 

Because it neutralizes blue tones, makeup artists soon discovered that Blue Blocker masks under eye circles, veins and bruises, too.

 

Unfortunately, you won’t find this amazing little professional makeup secret at your cosmetics counter, or even in beauty supply shops. The cosmetic industry, it seems, is still stuck on concealers and thick foundation. But you can order them on-line at www.silkskin.com, where you can get 30% off your first order.
