Our Pick: 10 Best Concealers For Oily Skin
The concealer is the winning weapon to mask dark circles, redness, and other skin imperfections, but choosing the right one for us, especially for oily skin, is not always easy.
When you have skin that shines, you are tempted to opt for an ultra-covering concealer and layer the layers of mattifying powder. This suffocates the skin, clogs the pores more quickly, and produces even more sebum to protect itself.
To get good coverage, buying a good concealer is not enough. Skincare and correct application of the product determine the final result.
