What Is Concealer Used For?

Concealer is a creamy makeup that’s great for hiding dark circles, age spots, blemishes, and more by hiding pigments with a formula that’s thicker than foundation. Want to find the best concealer for you? Check out our Concealer Comparison Guide .

Which Is Better: Concealer Or Foundation?

One isn’t better than the other! Both are important tools in your makeup kit. Foundation helps even your skin tone and acts as a base for things like contouring and highlighting, while concealer is used for specific spots to hide eye circles, discoloration, and blemishes while keeping the look of your skin even and consistent.
