Raise a hand if you find that your concealer starts to crease and settle in those under-eyes after applying concealer? Now, fine lines and wrinkles are a natural thing and beautiful \u2013 but that doesn\u2019t mean your concealer needs to settle in them!<\/p>\n

Keep reading to find out some tips on how to stop your concealer<\/a> from creasing and getting that makeup set all day long!<\/p>\n

<\/span>Don\u2019t use too much or too rich an eye cream<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Prepping with an eye cream is a great way to moisturise the area and provide a great base for your concealer. However, many people use either too much or use a product that\u2019s too thick and this could be doing more harm than good. Using too much or a rich eye cream may make the area too oily or slippery and the concealer will separate or not fully blend with the skin \u2013 rather, it will sit on the top of the skin and slide right off.<\/p>\n

However, don’t skip the moisturiser entirely: dryness under the eyes can also lead to fine lines or dry patches, which your concealer will cling to.<\/p>\n

You only need a rice sized amount for both eyes and make sure to tap this into the orbital bone, not any higher than that. Make sure to wait for the eye cream to absorb into the skin before applying your makeup.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Don\u2019t apply foundation under the eyes<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

You can start your foundation from right beneath your orbital bone \u2013 foundations<\/a> often have a lot of heavy silicones which can make your concealer slide on top of it. It will also just add another layer when you add concealer on top \u2013 it could be too heavy, you don\u2019t need that number of products around your eye: your concealer is enough.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Try using a brush<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Brushes help to work the product into the skin so that it\u2019s not moving around. Your fingers and sponge can sometimes just leave the product on the surface.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Your placement and amount of concealer could need adjusting<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Focus your concealer on the darkness under your eyes \u2013 you don\u2019t need to overapply the whole area. Just target the areas that need the concealer \u2013 the rest just needs the thinnest layer. Use less product to begin with and if you need more, add some afterwards and blend it into the orbital bone area for a traceless finish. Don\u2019t apply it too close to the lash line as it may pool and crease in that area.<\/p>\n

To help stop you from overapplying, pick up the product from the concealer wand with your brush before applying to the skin.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Set your concealer with a powder<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Follow these steps and you might not need to set your concealer\u2026 so try that first. If you find you do need to set it, use a lightweight setting powder<\/a> and use the smallest amount. Use a firm brush to pick up a small amount and press it into the area to help avoid creasing. A light reflecting powder like Laura Mercier\u2019s Brightening Powder is a great option.<\/p>\n
