Knowing how to properly use makeup to bring out someone’s best highlights and hide flaws in their skin is very important in many different applications and situations. Makeup is always advancing and improving. One of the newest trends in makeup, which has proven to be very practical and useful, is color correcting. A color corrector palette contains several different shades of makeup, each of which is used for correcting some discoloration or other flaws.
How Is A Color Corrector Palette Used?
A color corrector palette contains a couple of skin tones, but it also has orange, pink, blue and green makeup shades. At first glance, you may wonder what exactly you are supposed to do with all these unlikely colors. The way color correcting works is by taking complementary colors which are opposite to each other on the spectrum and using them to cancel out certain flaws in the skin. For example, if you have redness resulting from rosacea or acne, then you would use some of the green in the color corrector palette. For blue bruises and dark undereye circles, you would use orange. Appropriate shades of the colors are available for different skin tones.
Properly Using A Color Corrector Palette
When you want to use a color corrector palette, it is important to know how to use it properly. You want to make sure all the different shades of the finished makeup blend together nicely and that you don’t end up looking like you’re trying to make an artistic statement on your face. Use only small amounts of each color on each area that needs to be corrected and smooth it on in an even, streak-free layer that blends seamlessly into your foundation. This makeup technique is guaranteed to thoroughly conceal everything on the skin, no matter how up close and personal the cameras get.
