Can concealer be used as foundation? Can concealer be used as BB cream?

Concealer can cover the spots on the face and make the base makeup look more perfect, so can concealer be used as foundation? Can concealer be used as BB cream?

Concealer cannot be used as foundation. Concealer is concealer, and foundation is foundation. Although foundation can cover blemishes, concealer is definitely stronger in terms of concealing effect. Concealer is applied locally to cover blemishes, while liquid foundation is applied all over the face to cover blemishes and modify skin tone.

Concealer cannot be used as BB cream. Concealer can cover the spots on the facial skin and plays an important role in creating a perfect base makeup. However, the texture of concealer is much thicker than BB cream. It is only suitable for local targeted application and cannot be used on a large area, otherwise it will clog the pores due to the heavy makeup.

1. Complete makeup removal will not clog pores: When we remove makeup, if the concealer applied on the face is not removed completely and remains on the face, it will easily clog the pores and cause skin problems such as acne and spots.

2. Applying too thick will clog pores: It is best to apply concealer thinly and evenly. Applying too thick is like covering the skin with a film, which will clog pores and affect the skin's free breathing.

1. Apply a primer before applying: Don’t apply concealer directly after washing your face. You need to apply moisturizing water, lotion and BB cream first, and then apply concealer. When you just wash your face, your pores are open. If you apply concealer directly, the pores will be blocked by the concealer. Applying some water and lotion is equivalent to putting a protective film between the skin and the concealer.

2. Don’t apply concealer all over your face: You can use concealer all over your face, but it is not recommended. You can put a few small dots on the acne scars on your face, and then slowly spread it evenly.

3. Remove makeup thoroughly before going to bed: You must remove makeup after applying concealer. When removing makeup, you can apply makeup remover cotton to the area where concealer is applied for 30 seconds, and then gently press until no color can be seen on the makeup remover cotton. Finally, wash it off with facial cleanser.
