or better yet a mineralized powder combining different shades

Beaux Tip: Did you ever wonder what those pastel colored concealers were used for?
Well. . .
Yellow: dark under eye circles
Blue: red spots, acne, rosacea
Orange: veins, under eye circles, sunspots
Lavender: people with a yellow tone to their skin, minimal coverage

However, finding a good concealer that matches your skin tone
(which is typically a shade lighter than your foundation)
Will actually work out better than the cute colored ones

Just thought I would let you all know what they are used for!
