Camouflage - Steps for Applying Camouflage

Skin Camouflage is a useful cosmetic for covering skin defects. Camouflage, implies covering up unwanted spots and irregularities through the use of different kinds of makeup. A concealing cream may be applied to the skin prior to a foundation, the foundation in this case should either be sheer or opaque. Loose powder can then be used on top to set the foundation.

Camouflage make up can be used to neutralize naturally red or yellow undertones that your skin may have and lighten up areas that look dark or form shadows on the face. Further, camouflage techniques can also change the appearance, prominence, and definition of your nose, chin, cheekbones, and jawline. As a result, you can use camouflage make up techniques to achieve more defined cheekbones, narrow your nose, and give your face a more slender look.

Steps To Applying Camouflage:

  • Firstly, clean your skin by washing with lukewarm water or some antiseptin soaps.
  • Apply cream by filling in any recessions. Blend cream to outer edges of the scar, going just beyond to the edges of your skin.
  • Then allow to dry the cream for a few minutes.
  • Set with powder. Place a small amount of loose or pressed powder on a cotton ball or cosmetic puff and press gently over the area.
  • Alternatively, cut strips of concealing tape that match the shape of your scar. Made of a very thin and flesh-like material, the tape is designed to blend right into the surface of your skin.
  • Foundation should be applied with a dry wedge sponge.

Camouflage cosmetics can benefit your everyday makeup routine. Corrective make up can help diminish the appearance of anything from scars, blemishes, fine lines, age spots, birthmarks, vitiligo, and pigment irregularities, to dark under-eye circles that can't be effectively addressed with regular concealer and foundation.

It is water-resistant and touch-proof with amazing staying power. Although it has maximum coverage, it will fit like a "second skin" because it is yellow based. A camouflage cream under the foundation can be helpful to add better colour blocking. For instance, a green coloured cream can be used if redness needs to be hidden.

Powders and blushes can also be used over the foundation for additional coverage, powder will give a matte or dull finish.

These cosmetics should be used for short periods, if possible, and removed before bed using gentle skin cleansers. Special removers may be required for the waterproof camouflage foundations. These usually come as part of the package with each specialty product.
