My Secret Weapon...

Blemishes! The bane of my existence and the LAST thing I want popping it's ugly little head into my day. But unfortunately for me I have acne prone skin, skin that is prone to break outs during stress and the dreaded monthly cycle. I have far from perfect skin, but I do have a secret weapon that allows me to "fake it till I make it". 


Let me introduce you to my secret weapon...




Palladio Green Concealer! Yes, I said a green concealer. You're probably thinking to yourself "right, she's lost it." and I would've agreed with you a few months back, before I tried it. 

Let me explain. One of the worst parts about a pimple (other than the actual pimple) is the redness that comes with it. In order to combat the redness, we need something to balance it out. If we take a little squizz at the colour wheel, you will see that red is opposite to green, and there lies our answer. The green concealer cancels out the red hues of pimples, birth marks, acne and even scars. 


The best way, in my opinion, to use this product is to mix a small amount of the green concealer with your normal toned concealer. Make sure not to put too much green in the mix or you may end up looking a little Shrek-ish! Not all green concealers are the same shade of green, many vary and you will need to find the one that works best for you. I find that this little tube from Palladio works best for my skin tone.


This concelear is a very resonable R 69.99 when I purchased it about two months ago from Dischem. A little goes a long way, definately a brilliant buy!


I'm off to go cover some pimples ;)


Until tomorrow...
