Haute Beauty Tips: Conceal Like a Pro

Haute Beauty, News | April 5, 2016

Pros know there is a tool for every situation. Women know that every single one of them require some sort of under-eye concealer. The question is.. which one? Sometimes just a touch of light coverage will do to look fresh and go about the day, and others.. well maybe cameras are ready to snap or there were a few lost hours of sleep and something a little more serious is in order. Here are our top picks in order of intensity.

Pro Longwear MAC

For those days when you need maximum coverage, hiding everything—and we mean everything—that lies beneath, MAC’s Pro Longwear Concealer is the go-to tool for pros and the girls who know. This one gives a natural matte finish, and smooths out all sorts of discoloration and comes in a whopping 16 different shades. Go ahead, conceal the truth…  $22 at mac.com.
