Too Faced Born This Way Super Coverage Multi-Use Concealer - Nude

Super coverage refers to a highly pigmented formula designed to completely obscure significant skin imperfections like dark circles, blemishes, and discoloration with minimal product. It provides a full, opaque finish.

While highly pigmented, it's primarily designed as a concealer. However, for spot concealing all over the face or for those who prefer very light overall coverage by blending extensively, it can be used in place of foundation in small areas.

For concealing, aim for a shade that perfectly matches your skin tone. For highlighting, choose one shade lighter than your skin tone. For contouring, select one to two shades deeper than your skin tone. When in doubt, swatch shades on your jawline or inner wrist in natural light.

Info needed: Specific claims about waterproofing or transfer-proofing are not provided. However, its 'long-wearing' attribute suggests it offers good resistance to smudging and wear throughout the day.

For precise application, use the doe-foot applicator directly on the desired area. For blending, you can use a clean fingertip by gently tapping, a damp beauty sponge for a seamless finish, or a concealer brush for more targeted blending. Always blend the edges well.

To minimize settling, prepare the area with a hydrating eye cream or moisturizer. Use a very small amount of product, blend it out thoroughly, and then immediately set it with a very fine, translucent setting powder applied with a light hand.

Due to its long-wearing and high-coverage nature, an oil-based makeup remover, cleansing balm, or micellar water is recommended. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, gently press it onto the area for a few seconds to dissolve the product, and then gently swipe away before cleansing your face as usual.

Apply a very thin layer of product. Ensure your under-eye area is well-hydrated. Immediately after blending, lightly set the area with a finely milled translucent powder using a fluffy brush to absorb excess moisture and lock the product in place.

The 'super coverage' means a little goes a long way. Use a minimal amount of product and build up only if necessary. Ensure your skin is properly moisturized and consider using a damp beauty sponge for blending to sheer it out slightly while maintaining coverage.

For slight mismatches, try blending the concealer more extensively into your foundation or another complexion product. For significant mismatches, consider purchasing a second shade (lighter or darker) to mix for a custom blend that perfectly suits your needs.

Ensure your skin is adequately moisturized and primed. Work in small sections and blend immediately after application. Using a damp makeup sponge can provide more slip and help blend the product seamlessly before it sets.

Always ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent air exposure, which can dry out the formula. Store the product in a cool, dry place. If the product is truly dried out, it may be past its shelf life.
