Mario’s favourite concealers

2. Laura Mercier’s Secret Camouflage $58 at Mecca 

3. Surratt Beauty’s Perfectionniste Concealer Palette $93 at Mecca

He explained: ‘This technique works best for those who are looking to use a minimal amount of product and a fresher more natural looking face.’

Mario said you use a thin makeup brush to place the product gently into small dots throughout the face.

You then feather out the product by applying minimal pressure on the brush and pat your fingers softly to set the concealer. 

Mario revealed that for this look to work, you’ll need to find a colour ‘as close to your exact shade as possible’.

What is micro-concealing?

Micro-concealing is ‘an effortless way to conceal breakouts or uneven skin tone without covering your entire face with product.’

To do this you use a thin makeup brush to place the product gently into small dots throughout your face.

You then feather out the product by applying minimal pressure on the brush and pat your fingers softly to set the concealer. 

Mario revealed that for this look to work, you’ll need to find a colour ‘as close to your exact shade as possible’.

Mario also revealed that it's important to set under-eye concealer with a loose setting power as 'this keeps concealer from settling into fine lines'

He said:’It’s rare that your skin will match one shade perfectly, so it’s important to mix and customise.’

He also explained that a common mistake is not blending or setting your under-eye concealer.

Mario revealed that it’s important to start with a flat brush and dab product under the eye before using a damp sponge to blend the concealer towards the outer corner.

After blending, set the concealer with a loose setting power as ‘this keeps concealer from settling into fine lines’.
