Covering Freckles

1. Begin with a cream concealer. If you have dark freckles, dab a bit of concealer over them; use concealer 2-3 shades lighter than you skin tone for best coverage. Dab gently with your fingertips and don’t worry about blending all the way – the foundation will even it out.


2. Choose the right foundation. For an even, natural finish, I recommend using a damp sponge to apply a powder formula, then finish off with a brush of loose powder.  The key here is to remember that you are not trying to cover every single last freckle – doing so will make your makeup look caked on and unnatural.  



3. Apply makeup that highlights other features. If you’d like to draw attention away from your freckles, try exemplifying your best features—if you want your eyes to shine, try adramatic eye shadow look; if you want a pop of color, try a bold lip.

Make sure you are always wearing SPF, whether or not you have freckles! And no matter what you do, remember that you will always look your best when you’re comfortable in your own skin. Instead of covering up your freckles, why not celebrate them? :)
