Choosing the right color corrector for your skin concerns
When it comes to finding the right color corrector for your skin concerns, consider factors like your skin type, the specific issues you want to address, and the undertones of your skin. By selecting the appropriate color corrector, you can effectively neutralize discoloration and achieve picture-perfect makeup every time you apply.
Let’s dive into the different shades of color correctors and the various skin imperfections they each address.
Color corrector for redness
Trying to tone down the redness in your complexion? Green color correcting makeup comes in clutch when it comes to combating redness by offsetting any rosy undertones you may have. Whether the result of rosacea, acne, or just general redness, a green color corrector can work wonders in evening out your complexion. With the right green color corrector in your beauty arsenal, you can say goodbye to unwanted redness and hello to a more balanced and radiant complexion.
Color corrector for dark circles
Say goodbye to tired-looking eyes and hello to a bright, fresh-faced appearance with yellow or peach color correcting makeup. Whether you have chronic dark undereye circles or just need a little extra help after a late night, using a yellow or peach shade of color corrector can make a world of difference.
Color corrector for discoloration
If you’re dealing with dark circles, acne scars, or general skin discoloration, color correctors can aid in evening out the tone and texture of your complexion. Redness caused by acne inflammation or rosacea is best balanced with green color correcting makeup, while yellow works well for dark patches, sun spots, or dark, tired under-eyes.

How to apply color correcting makeup like a pro
To ensure your color corrector works most effectively start with a clean and moisturized face. A little goes a long way when applying color correcting makeup, so you’ll want to apply sparingly and build as necessary.
You can use a small precision brush, makeup sponge, or even your fingertips to apply color corrector where needed. Blend out evenly until you’ve achieved the desired coverage, then continue with your makeup routine as you typically would.
