Just when you think that there are no more new makeup trends possible to create, TikTok makes you a liar. The latest makeup craze taking social media by storm, is ombre concealer. This eye-brightening technique combines two steps into one to save time with makeup application.

The three products needed to achieve this look are liquid blush, concealer, and setting powder. The whole point of this technique is to illuminate the under-eye area so that you will need two different concealers. When choosing concealer colors, this technique works best with a brightening concealer and a concealer closer to your true shade. Some people who follow this trend also like to use two different shades of blush, but it’s completely optional.

I would not be a good Makeup Artist if I did not recommend that you moisturize the under-eye area before you begin. Giving the eye hydration will allow the products to blend easier, as it gives the under eye a smoother appearance. Now that your under eyes are nice and supple, you can begin your ombre process. Start by applying the brightening concealer shade on the inner corners of your eye, the concealer that matches your skin tone in the center, and the blush on the outer corner. Lightly blend the products into the skin using a  sponge, makeup brush, or fingers. Once everything is all blended, lightly set it with a bit of powder to hold it in place. 

The final result will be a bright, flawless under-eye. The blush acts as a color correct while also giving a flush of color to the cheeks. This technique brings light to the center of the face and gives the eye a lifted appearance. Ombré concealer is a user-friendly makeup hack worth trying.
