Neutralize redness with green or beige
For wider red areas, apply a thin wash of green or yellow-beige corrector before foundation. Canceling out the red tone first makes the skin look evenly balanced.

Dab the spot and blend edges only
For tiny marks, pick a pot concealer half a shade deeper than your base. Dab directly onto the spot, then softly feather out only the outer edges so the center stays covered.

Press lightly over flaky texture
Adding thick concealer over dry, flaky skin only emphasizes texture. Use whatever residue remains on your sponge and press very lightly so it looks smoother.

- Using a concealer that is too light will highlight blemishes instead of disguising them.
- Let the concealer set for 5 to 10 seconds before blurring the edges for better adhesion.
