If that's the case, your concealer becomes more critical than ever as it has to conceal your skin and keep it hydrated.

3. Under Eyes: As a rule of thumb, the brush should be flat with a width equal to the width of one of your fingers.
4. MakeupSetting: If you use your powdered concealer to set the application at the end of your Christmasmakeup routine, use a fluffy brush with a dome shape. You can also go with a puff to have more coverage and natural looking blending all over the face.
