It's possible that you want to make your own concealer because you've run out of conventional one, or you wish to stop using commercial products.There are many methods and recipes to choose from.You can mix and match ingredients based on comfort, availability, and consistency.
Step 1: It's a good idea to use a base of moisturizer.
To begin, squeeze a small amount into your hand or container.If possible, use a non-comedogenic moisturizer.Some products will cake onto your skin and make it hard for you to sleep.A non-comedogenic moisturizer might be a better choice if you get a lot of skin problems.
Step 2: You should mix in powder that matches your skin tone.
If you don't have the exact color, add lighter and darker powder until you have a mixture that is thick and opaque.
Step 3: It's best to aim for equal parts powder and moisturizer.
You may have to go through trial and error to get the proportions right.Look for tinted moisturizers.If you find a product that matches your skin tone, you won't have to color the concealer.
Step 4: It's best to apply it to your skin.
You can use the homemade product the same way you would a store-bought product.Don't put the concealer into the spot that you want to cover up, and feel free to use more if it's not enough.You can use a brush or finger.You can find a small, clean concealer brush that gives you more precision and results that are better than a finger.It's more sanitary.
Step 5: Get inventive.
Don't be afraid to mix different natural oils.You don't need to use commercial products.You need to research the effects and interactions of the various ingredients before you put them on your skin.
Step 6: Choose the oils you use.
Good candidates can be found at a local drugstore or health-food store.Adding vitamins and supplements can make a difference.The skin can heal quicker with the help of vitamins E and E.Rosehip oil and sea buckthorn oil are used in medicine.It's possible to prevent signs of aging with the help of argan oil.
Step 7: The mixture will be thick.
Use a vegetable-based emulsifying wax.When it comes to concealing, the different properties of each thickening agent are largely interchangeable.A specific mix of butters, oils, and herbs is what you should look for.
Step 8: Take your colors and mix them together.
There are beauty-supply stores that sell pure pigment.Try to get a color that matches your skin tone.If you can't find what you're looking for, a beauty professional might be able to help.
Step 9: It's a good idea to base it on Vaseline.
Any kind of liquid will do.Don't use too much Vaseline, it goes a long way.A small bowl or palm of your hand is needed.
Step 10: Place pressed powder in it.
Make sure to mix thoroughly.It is possible to use powder to set foundation and concealer when you are working with something that is oily.It is easier to mix and transport crushed-up pressed powder.If you use loose powder, you may be able to get more coverage out of your concealer.
Step 11: If you want to cover the spot, apply.
Most commercial products are more effective than this do-it-yourself one, but it should hold you over in a pinch.
