Which applicator to choose for 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 beauty blender
Ideal for a natural look, the beauty blender will camouflage imperfections and dark circles to perfection!
It's important to clean your sponge regularly to prevent small imperfections from appearing without warning!
The fingers
This is the best way if you're not comfortable using a brush or sponge. However, it's not the most practical. Your fingers will be covered in concealer...
But if you're more comfortable with this technique, we recommend applying concealer or corrector to the desired area first, then tapping with your fingers to blend the texture.

Our pro tips for a flawless complexion
It is necessary to select the right concealer color . Always go for a shade lighter than your skin tone to brighten the tired area under your eyes.
To facilitate the application of your concealer, 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. To avoid a mask effect, be careful not to apply too much texture. It may not look natural.
Any questions on how to apply 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 your complexion , then use Charlotte Bio mattifying powder .
Is applying concealer alone enough for a pretty complexion?
Applying concealer will only correct the areas you want to camouflage . It is not intended to even out your skin tone.
How do you set your concealer to last all day?
To fix the concealer all night long, we recommendapplying a mattifying powder to set your make-up. For longer wear, you can also opt for a foundation to be applied after your day cream to matify the complexion and fix your makeup.
Is it possible to use a concealer instead of a highlighter?
Be careful, it's 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 a glowy complexion as desired! 🙅🏻♀️
How can I achieve a natural look with a 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.
