The concealer is an essential wildcard for creating a noteworthy makeup look on your own, with a variety of styles. Even if you don't wear much makeup, concealer is fundamental for taking care of your skin every day and for always feeling put together and beautiful. Discover all the secrets of this increasingly innovative, smart, easy-to-use, and practical cosmetic; you can carry it in your handbag and use it everywhere, even at the gym or on vacation.
What is the corrector and why is it worth using it
The concealer will truly become your best friend and is a modern cosmetic, available in many different versions to satisfy, rightly so, even the most demanding woman. The concealer is used to correct and disguise discolorations and imperfections of the skin such as spots, pimples, dark circles, etc. There are also options to cover body capillaries, not just those on the face. In general, regardless of the specific formulation of the concealer you choose, this must-have cosmetic has a denser and creamier texture compared to foundation, richer in covering pigments. Using it is very easy; just apply it to the area to be corrected and blend it with your fingers or with a specific sponge, or even with a precision makeup brush. To set everything, you just need to apply a light dusting of powder, and you're done. Many women, for example, use only a liquid or compact concealer, perhaps in stick form, if they need to go out in a hurry and don't have time to create a more precise makeup base. This is possible if there are no major imperfections to cover and if your skin is young and you don't wear makeup often by habit. In general, it is better for the concealer to be paired with an appropriate foundation and especially with a powder: you can find all these specific and high-quality products on our e-shop mi-ny at truly competitive prices. There are also illuminating concealers with an extra-light formulation that are used to strategically brighten certain areas of the face, giving a lifting and natural effect at any age.

Bio or traditional corrector: which one to choose
There is a lot of talk about bio correctors, but what does it really mean? Is it a better product than others? The term bio refers to organic and identifies a product made according to precise guidelines that certify its production through low exploitation of crops. Yes, they are natural products but they can be equivalent in safety and performance to others of more industrial origin. What is important when choosing cosmetics is to look for those with selected, safe, and natural ingredients that are cruelty-free and free from parabens, petrolatum, and potentially harmful chemical agents for health and the environment. All mi-ny products are safe, tested, and certified, ideal for use even on the most sensitive skin and at any age, and their competitive price does not compromise quality, on the contrary.
How to apply the concealer
There is no universal way, more right or wrong, to apply concealer on the face, but there are techniques that makeup artists suggest. This mainly depends on the area of the face to be made up and the type of product chosen, and primarily on its formulation: stick, cream, powder, etc. Concealer is used on specific areas such as pimples, spots, but also on slightly larger areas like the eye contour and eyelids. In this last case, you can use an under-eye concealer, specific and with a suitable color and texture, and the same applies to other imperfections to be corrected. In general, concealer is applied on well-cleansed and dry skin, but some people apply it after foundation for an even more covering effect. We recommend using our stick concealer, which is more practical and creamy, highly moisturizing and just the right coverage, applying it either with a precision brush or with your fingers. Dab it with your fingertips and blend it slightly with light movements, then set everything with powder; if the area to be treated is larger, take advantage of the practicality of the mi-ny stick, or use a brush of the right size.
All the colors of the corrector
In stores and also on our portal, there are various shades of concealer, each with a specific covering function. One of the most famous and particular is undoubtedly the green concealer, or the concealer for dark circles, but not only that, here we present the must-haves to always have a fresh, youthful, and beautiful face every day.
The green corrector: it is perfect if you want to hide the redness of the skin caused by pimples or broken capillaries.
The concealer for dark circles: it has a yellow tone that neutralizes the purple under the eyes and, unlike the beige concealer, it doesn't weigh down and leaves the complexion more natural. If your dark circles tend to be blue, it's better to use an orange-toned concealer.
The corrector to brighten and eliminate yellowness: it is ideal for those with olive skin or for smokers. This cosmetic has a pink or purple color, especially lilac, and will immediately give a luminous and healthy allure to the face.
The traditional beige or hazelnut concealer: it is perfect for covering imperfections in a generic way. Not having a specific function, we recommend it for young skin or for those who do not have particular skin marks to correct. Always carry it in your handbag, it will become your must-have beauty ally.
