Hi,

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

What could be a  better pick me up color than an Orange Lipstick ...

Recently I bought this Inglot Freedom System Lipstick Refill No. 37 on recommendation of a friend. 

I am a big pink (fuschia, berry, plums, rose pink etc)  lipstick hoarder, n second color I gravitate towards is n*de browns. And I only owned  one red color and one coral lipstick. It took lot of guts and encouragement from friends ( and obviously a very reasonable price tag) to pick this shade.

Color Corrector for Under Eye Darkness - Kryolan Brush - On Concealer- Shade 6 - Review and Swatches

Hi,

Kryolan concealers are hands down the best concealer for dark under eye circles available in India (for that matter anywhere). I have two of them, Kryolan Brush-On Concealer in Shade 6, and Kryolan Dermacolor Camouflage Creme in shade DFD. Read on tho know why I made the claim "best under eye concealer". Will soon review the second concealer as well. I use this particular shade (06) as a corrector.

I have very dark under eye area. The pigmentation is so dark that it is almost brown under eye.  I have tried many concealers and corrector like Bobbi Brown Corrector (which I have also reviewed), Mac, Cover FX, MUFE, YSL etc. which gave me okay results. In normal world, I would say that they are good and people should use them. But in my case they are just okay, I always feel the need of "just-a-bit-more".

How To Cover Up Red Acne - DIY Green Corrector

Looking perfect but can’t hide that red spot, Acne , or pimple  peeping out through the foundation layer? Applying more foundation or concealer over it makes it look even more apparent?? Learn here how to hide the REDNESS of the acne, flawlessly.

Read the post about corrector here  : CORRECTOR

In my makeup basics series, I discussed about using corrector to neutralize the flaws.

Here I will discuss how to cover up the red acne using a green corrector. OOPS !! Don’t have a green corrector?? Don’t worry we will make one at home. It is very easy to conceal a pimple with makeup.

A simple DIY Green Corrector

You will need: 

• A true green color eyeshadow
• Concealer
•  Q-tip or a Concealer Brush

I used the Light Green Color 

Method:

• Depending upon the size of the acne you need to cover up take small amount of concealer on back of your palm or any plastic palette. If you have few acne to cover up, I advise you to go one at a time to avoid the wastage of product as concealer may dry quickly.

  

  Concealer 

  
  
• Take a tiny bit of green color eyeshadow beside the concealer.

  

  Concealer and Green Shadow

  
  
• Now mix the two by mixing smallest quantity of green into the concealer and darken as per requirement. You can use a Q-tip or a Concealer Brush or your finger. Stick to the basic rule – for darker red color of acne You need a little extra green color, and lighter red colored acne will require lighter colored corrector. But the thumb rule of mixing green color to the concealer is that the color green should make the concealer green colored. Don’t add too little of eyeshadow that it doesn’t show up and turn the concealer green.     
  
  

  

  Green Corrector
   (looks a little blackish because of lighting issues)

• Woila!! We have our very own green corrector.

Application Process:

• The Most Important point to remember is to apply this BEFORE the foundation.

  

  Red Acne

  
  
• Having them mixed together, now dab the corrector the corrector in a small quantity directly on the tip of the acne. You can use a Q-tip or a brush for precise application.
• Take good care that you don’t move the color out on skin too far away from acne (as this will make your skin look green).

  

  Green Corrector Blended
  ( I blended it a little too far as there was some redness in entire area which wasn't captured by camera)

• Now with your finger tip dab the product and push it on the skin and blend it on the edges.  You will notice that the green will immediately take away all the redness.
• It’s time to hide the green colored patch. Apply your regular skin colored concealer on top of this green patch with a light hand. Remember to just dab the product rather than tucking and pulling.Dabbing will make a layer over of concealer OVER the corrector. Tucking, pulling and blending with MIX the corrector and concealer. Use your fingertip for this step.

  

  Concealer added on the tip of Acne

  
  

  

  Concealer Blended (no foundation applied) 

• Now follow it with usual foundation and set the whole face with powder so nothing moves out of its place.

Last words:

I know people will be very skeptical of using an eyeshadow and mixing it with concealer. But I will urge you to try this once at home. If you use a good concealer, the corrector isn’t going anywhere. And moreover try it out on day a day you are not going out, Who knows you might just like it. For me, It really saved me few bucks, as green corrector isn’t available easily and moreover considering the price tag I would rather stick to using an eyeshadow. And it has never failed me, I wear it often when I breakout and it never gets noticed. 

Notice how the Redness and Appearance of acne has vanished, The tiny hint of green still visible will be washed away when foundation is applied.

Hope this would help you to Conceal / Hide a Red Acne or Pimple.   Do try it out once for fun and let me know how you liked the results.

Stay Beautiful :)

Clinique High Impact Mascara - Review and Swatches

Hi,

I LOVE mascaras. If I could had only one make product for my entire life, it will be a mascara. I can't think of living without these. I mascara opens up the eyes and brings life to the face. It instantly transforms the sleepy face to a more awake look.
I haven't tried many high end mascaras as I think that drugstore brands often do a decent job. And considering that they dry up within three months from date of opening the pack I think that buying a high end mascara is waste of money (OK !! Not exactly waste but I keep doing cost-benefit analysis, idiot MBA )  I love Loreal Mascaras (and from Revlon, Maybelline etc). But this Clinique Mascara changed my perception for high end mascaras.

MAC Dubonnet Lipstick - Swatches and Review

Hi Friends,

A quick review over Mac Dubonnet Lipstick.

• Dubonnet is a red with brown undertones. It has no shimmer at all. Its a warm shade and will suit all the skin tones. And is excellent for darker skin tones. 
• It is an Amplified - Quite Intense - finish. Has a very pretty sheen to it without being too glossy.
• Opaque full coverage. Boon for people with pigmented lips. It just takes one swipe to cover any pigmentation.
• Staying power is 5 hours plus. There after it fades leaving a stain behind.
• Does not emphasis any dryness or settles into lines. It does not bleeds even. 
• Has the Mac's signature vanilla scent.
