Stupid question....are concealor, powder, foundation and blush all different things?

are concealor, powder, foundation and blush all the same thing or r they different and if ur 15 do u wear all of this or is some of it for people with facial blemishis?Stupid question....are concealor, powder, foundation and blush all different things?
they are all different.


15 year olds do not need blush. Blush makes your cheeks appear pink (or red). It looks trashy on anyone under 30.Stupid question....are concealor, powder, foundation and blush all different things?
Yes, they are different things.


You can wear foundation to make your skin look clearer.


Concealer is used to cover zits, dark under eye circles, or redness.


Oh, and there is no such thing as a stupid question.


:)
Sounds like you are just starting out with makeup!


1. Concealer: comes in skin tones and strange colors...confusing huh? You buy a skin toned one, one shade lighter than your skin, to hide dark areas like scars or undereye or spots or freckles. The colored ones are Corrective Concealers and are used for specific needs: green hides red, yellow hides dark or purpleish areas, like bruises or undereye.





2. Powder: usually used last to mattify your face and absorb excess oil. Most are made with talc which clogs your pores.


I'd avoid the powder.





3. Foundation: applied over concealer. Comes in various forms like mousse, liquid, cream to powder, loose mineral, stick, etc....


If you have oily skin...avoid those with oils in them. Sticks, creams liquids feel heavy and are hard to blend. Tend to leave a line along your jaw, especially if the color isn't precisely your skin color. I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND mineral foundation...(i use LAminerals)





4. BLush: Used to give the cheeks and sometimes forhead a little color, as if you are ';blushing';. Applied after foundation.


Comes in various forms, just like the foundation.





LAminerals has a starter kit for like $29 that includes your choice of 3 items...might be a good place to start. And is healthy for your skin. Try some samples first to see what shades look best on your. THey are only like $1 and they ship em free.





Best of Luck 2 ya!
Concealer is to cover up blemishes and dark circles.


Powder, don't even use it. It isn't the 50s anymore.


Foundation is a liquid that U use 2 even out UR skintone.


And blush, well, you should know what that is.
lol yeah hon they're different.





concealer is meant for blemishes or dark circles





powder/foundation can be similar or different. they're for all over skin tone evening. powder is self explanatory, but foundation can be pressed powder or liquid.





blush is just a color for your cheeks, usually used to highlight your cheekbones (colors range from pink to red)








if you have clear beautiful skin all you need to do is maybe highlight your cheeks to color your face up a bit, and if you have some blemishes use the concealer and bareminerals foundation (my reccomendation) to cover up your pimples while also giving your skin a fresh glow








good luck!
