Concealing with Mineral Makeup

Posted on July 12, 2008 | Filed Under Mineral Makeup Tips

If you are unhappy with the coverage you get from mineral makeup, don’t give up. There are several ways to conceal discolorations under your mineral foundation.

First you can try applying you regular foundation over your areas with a concealer brush. Concealer brushes are made of synthetic fibers and give a heavier application of minerals.

If that doesn’t for the trick, try dampening the concealer brush slightly and spot applying the foundation very slightly damp.

If you need more coverage than that, try Bare Minerals Bisque (available in regular, summer bisque & honey bisque). The bisque colors are more opaque and they cover very well.

Bisque is best for covering up spots - like old acne spots and scars or sun damaged areas. If you need all over help, consider these color correctors from Affordable Mineral Makeup™:
