Colour Corrector Kit

Orange concealers: This colour is suitable for darker skin tones. An orange concealer is the best option for covering dark circles or other spots with deep discolouration.
Neutral concealers: Any regular concealer works well to veil small imperfections or an occasional pimple. Choose a shade similar to the skin tone, or one shade lighter.

Yellow concealers: They are perfect for hiding purple or blue bruises, veins, and under-eye circles, hence yellow being right across from purple on the colour wheel. Yellow concealers are the best option to obtain a bright base for foundation.

Green concealers: The colour green neutralises the colour red, which is why green concealers are wonderful for cov¬ering any redness on the skin. Use a green based concealer to remove redness from spots, or any acne scars. If the skin has widespread redness, (rosacea, windburn or sunburn), a green primer would be the best choice to reduce redness for an even toned base and flawless foundation application.

Purple, lavender or lilac concealers: These are suitable for eliminating any unwanted yellow undertones. Skin types with a dull complexion will appreciate how a purple concealer adds a beautiful glow to the skin. Purple is directly across from yellow on the colour wheel. So to combat yellow tones in the skin, consider a purple colour correcting primer. To conceal yellow spots, a concealer is the best solution.

Pink concealers: This concealer is a mix between a salmon and peach colour and is ideal for brightening the eye area and covering signs of fatigue. This particular concealer colour is a mixture of red, orange, and yellow hues that are across from the darker colours on the colour wheel. Pink is therefore a brilliant shade to combat dark under-eye circles. Since it is a great brightening agent, pink concealer also works well to give sallow olive toned skin a much-needed radiance.
