How do you cover up freckles?
1. Primer:
Start with a primer to create a smooth canvas and help makeup adhere better.
2. Color Corrector:
Use a green-tinted color corrector to neutralize the redness often associated with freckles. Apply it directly to the freckles and blend it out.
3. Foundation or BB Cream:
Choose a foundation or BB cream that closely matches your skin tone. Apply it all over your face, including the areas with freckles.
4. Concealer:
For extra coverage, apply a concealer that matches your foundation shade to the freckles. Use a small brush or your finger to apply it directly to the freckles and blend it out.
5. Setting Powder:
Lock your makeup in place with a translucent setting powder. This will help prevent your makeup from smudging or transferring.
6. Finishing Spray:
Spritz your face with a setting spray to ensure your makeup stays put throughout the day.
7. Alternative Coverage Methods:
- Tinted Moisturizer: Instead of foundation or BB cream, you can use a tinted moisturizer for lighter coverage.
- BB or CC Cream: BB creams (blemish balm creams) and CC creams (color-correcting creams) offer a lightweight coverage while correcting skin tone.
- Pressed Powder: If you only want to cover freckles in specific areas, you can use a pressed powder that matches your skin tone.
Remember, freckles are a natural part of skin and embracing them can be a beautiful choice too!
