How do you apply makeup to cover up pimples?

like what are the steps with makeup?How do you apply makeup to cover up pimples?
ok first go to the store and find a foundation or liquid make up that matches your skin tone. i reccommend Covergirl Clean Makeup. it comes in a small glass bottle witha blue cap. Then buy a powder ccompact of your skin color. first apply the liquid makeup to your face with a little triangle sponge for makeup then apply the powder when your done. it really works! i do it everyday :)How do you apply makeup to cover up pimples?
Look for blemish concealers that:





Are high-quality


Are oil-free


Will not clog pores


Matches your skin tone


Has a green or yellow base or undertone - this helps offset the redness associated with pimples





Good brands...





Dermablend Smooth Concealer: This product was named a best beauty buy from InStyle Magazine, and a little goes a long way to disguise those unwanted facial spots.





MAC Studio Finish Concealer: This concealer provides excellent coverage and lasting results.





Neutrogena SkinClearing oil-free concealer: This highly-rated formula not only conceals pimples, but has ingredients to heal them and prevent new blemishes from forming.





Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage: This concealer has is recommended by many beauty experts and can be used for pimples as well as other blemishes like broken veins.





How to do it





First, apply an oil-free foundation as to your skin as you normally would, using light and blended layers if necessary. Next, apply the concealer gently and specifically to the affected spot, using either:





Completely clean fingertips


The tip of a clean cosmetic sponge


Small facial makeup brush


Clean cotton swab


Then let the concealer dry completely. Once the makeup is dry, it's important to dust the area lightly with an oil-free pressed or loose powder to set the foundation and concealer.





Note: Be careful not to over apply - applying a second layer of concealer sometimes backfires and ends up softening and removing the concealer.
First apply your foundation. I would reccomend Neutrogena Skin Clearing foundation (it has medicine in it to help clear breakouts). Then apply concealer that is a shade lighter than your skin and blend. To finish dust face with translucent powder to eliminate shine. It's easy and wont clog pores! :)
cover the spot with light foundation and blend it, try applying it to the spot using an eye makeup brush or a lip gloss stick.


Then apply white powder over, to get rid of the redness. After that blend in some bronzer to match up with ur skin, soo theres not just a white spot.


make sure u put power over the foundation and u use a brush if u dont the foundation will come of and the redness will apear again.
its really simple. just get a SMALL dap of concealor and use it to cancel out the reddness. concealor doesnt make it look like the pimples not even there, and if you try to use it like that it will cause thezit to look crusty and attract even more unwanted attention to it.
You need concealer and foundation.


First you should get your concealer and dab a few dots under your eyes, to hide dark circles. Then put some dabs over blemishes that need to be covered.


Then you apply your foundation.


For liquid, i would get a duo fiber stippling brush(like the 187 at MAC, but if your on a budget, go to www.coastalscents.com, they have the same thing but for only 7.00!) put some foundation on your hand, and then get the brush and stipple and swirl on your face.


For powder foundation(loose powder), get a buffer or kabuki brush, and pour some into the cap, and buff onto your face.


Hope that helps!
1. dab the color that matches your skin tone to your finger.


2. then put it on the blemish.


3. rub until even with your face.
Sry, but for now u need to focus on making the pimple dissapear by cleansing it or i spose u could freeze it [:





then once its gone u dont have to wory about that ^.^
I would not put any makeup on a pimple because it clogs your pores and tends to make it look crusty!
