🤎 The 3-in-1 anti-dark circle treatment corrector
The concealer is available in 6 shades: Ivory, Pink Beige, Nude, Sand, Golden Beige and Hazelnut. This will help conceal dark circles by highlighting the eyes and correcting the complexion. For application on dark circles and to brighten the eyes, we recommend choosing a shade lighter than your skin tone.
Easy to apply thanks to its integrated applicator , the Charlotte Bio concealer will also correct imperfections locally. It is important to choose a shade that matches your skin tone for the most natural look possible.
💚 The green corrector
The green corrector corrects redness locally. How does it work in practice? The green color of the corrector will contrast with the red and therefore camouflage small redness on the skin in one application.
If you want to cover up a blemish, use the green concealer first, then apply the concealer in your skin tone.

Which applicator to choose for the concealer?
Thanks to its integrated brush, you can apply the concealer directly to the areas to be concealed: dark circles, redness and imperfections.
You can then blend the material with:
A sponge or a beauty blender
Ideal for a natural look, the beauty blender will camouflage imperfections and dark circles to perfection!
It is important to clean your sponge regularly to avoid small imperfections that appear without warning!
Fingers
This is the best way if you're not comfortable using a brush or sponge. However, it's not the most practical. You'll end up with concealer-covered fingers...
But if you're more comfortable with this technique, we recommend applying the concealer or corrector to the desired area first, then tapping with your fingers to blend the texture.
Apply your concealer anti-dark circles and anti-redness:

Our professional tips for a flawless complexion
It is important to choose the right concealer color. Always go for a shade lighter than your skin tone to brighten the tired area under your eyes.
To make applying your concealer easier, don't underestimate hydration! A moisturized eye contour will reduce the appearance of dark circles and allow the texture of your concealer to blend in well. To avoid a mask-like effect, be careful not to apply too much texture. This could make it look unnatural.
Questions about applying the corrector?
Should you apply your concealer before or after your BB Cream or CC Cream?
For a perfect complexion, we recommend applying your concealer AFTER applying your BB Cream or CC Cream. To mattify the complexion, then use Charlotte Bio mattifying powder.
Can applying concealer alone be enough for a beautiful complexion?
Applying concealer will only correct the areas you want to camouflage. It is not intended to even out your skin tone.
How to set your concealer so it lasts all day?
To set your concealer overnight, we recommend applying a mattifying powder to set your makeup. For longer-lasting results, you can also use a foundation primer after your day cream to mattify your complexion and set your makeup.
Is it possible to use concealer instead of highlighter?
Be careful, this is not the same use!
A concealer will correct imperfections while a highlighter will illuminate certain areas of the face to highlight them. By applying concealer instead of highlighter, you will not have the desired glowy complexion at all! 🙅🏻♀️
How to achieve a natural look with concealer?
For a natural effect, make sure to pick up a small amount of texture. Then, blend effectively so that the concealer blends perfectly into your skin.
Your eyes will be wide open!
Is concealer effective at covering acne?
Charlotte Bio's concealer covers all kinds of imperfections. If you have acne, it's very effective. We also recommend applying the green concealer beforehand to neutralize redness and then more easily cover up spots.
Charlotte Bio foundation base is also a great solution if you have combination to oily skin, it will blur small imperfections beforehand. Apply just after your day cream!
Can concealer be used as an eyeshadow primer?
To set your eyeshadow, it is quite possible to apply a little Charlotte Bio concealer to your eyelids to facilitate the application of the eyeshadows and set the makeup.
