Concealing Bruising or Redness

• To conceal bruising: On purple areas, brush on a small amount of a yellow-based color corrector. On yellow, green, or blue areas, use a pink-based color corrector.
• To conceal redness: After moisturizing, apply a green skin primer, then concealer and foundation on top.
