1. The lighter the shade, the better it will cover. FICTION. Go for a shade that matches you and your foundation best. Having trouble getting a match? Just blend a bit of your foundation with your concealer.

2. The more you blend, the better it will look. FICTION. You'll end up blending it right off your face. Use a light touch for best results.

3. You should always apply concealer really close to the lashline. FICTION. That will actually make your eyes look smaller than they are. Start about 1/8 inch away from the lashline.

4. Using a magnifying mirror with concealer is a great idea. That way, you can be sure to cover the flaw. FICTION. You'll accidentally "overapply" your concealer since you can't see your whole face, only the flaw.
