The Best Concealers for Dark Skin

Barring the possibility that you’re one of the luckiest people alive, you’ve likely had a pimple, dark spot, or under-eye circles that could use some covering up. Concealer to the rescue, right? But, wait. Even brands with decent foundation color range tend to skimp on concealer shades for dark skin tones. And how do you pick the right color anyway? The important thing to note is that there isn’t just one color for your skin. "Darker complexions have multiple shades across the face," says makeup artist Lulu Acevedo of SheSpoke, a custom makeup studio in Manhattan. "A concealer used in the center of the face should be brightening and therefore likely one or two shades lighter than the foundation shade you use around the perimeter." Next, to conceal dark spots, choose a product with a bit of orange undertone, she advises. Okay, got that? Without further ado, here are the best concealers for dark skin tones.
