Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Anastasia Beverly Hills Magic Touch Concealer involves proper selection, application, and care.
Initial Setup: Shade Selection
- Matching Your Needs: With 25 shades available, spend time identifying the best shade(s) for your intended use (e.g., exact match for blemishes, lighter for highlighting, peach/golden undertones for color correction).
- Testing: If possible, swatch shades on your jawline for skin tone matching, or inner wrist for undertone assessment, allowing them to dry slightly to see the true color.
Compatibility
- Foundation: This concealer is designed to be compatible with various foundation types, whether liquid, cream, or powder. It can be applied before or after foundation.
- Setting Powders: For extended wear and a matte finish, it pairs well with loose setting powders.
- Skincare: Ensure your skin is properly prepped and moisturized before application. A well-hydrated base helps the concealer blend seamlessly and prevents creasing.
Care Instructions
- Storage: Store the concealer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its consistency and efficacy.
- Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid touching the wand directly to your face if you can, instead applying a small amount to the back of your hand first. Regularly clean any brushes or sponges used for application.
- Shelf Life: Pay attention to the Period After Opening (PAO) symbol (usually a number followed by 'M' for months) on the packaging, typically 6-12 months, to ensure optimal performance and safety.
