FAQ about complexion corrector

How to determine the appropriate shade of complexion concealer?

The choice of the color of the corrector depends on the specific concern: green to neutralize redness, pink/purple to enhance skin radiance, white for intense under-eye brightening, etc.

What is the difference between a color corrector and a foundation?

The complexion corrector is a more concentrated formula used to address specific imperfections, whereas foundation normalizes the overall skin tone.

Can a complexion corrector be used on its own without foundation?

Yes, for a natural result, it is possible to apply only the concealer to areas that need evening out and to blend the product.

Should the complexion corrector be applied before or after foundation?

The complexion correctors are typically applied before foundation to conceal skin imperfections.

Can complexion correctors aggravate acne?

Some concealers can indeed be comedogenic and promote the appearance of imperfections. Therefore, it is recommended to review the ingredient list and test the product for a few days to ensure it is well tolerated by the skin.

How does color correction work?

The correction is based on the principle of complementary colorimetry. Certain hues visually neutralize their opposite colors, such as green to counteract redness or peach to offset bluish under-eye circles.

Which concealer should be selected to address under-eye dark circles?

The choice depends on the color of the dark circles and the skin type. Bluish under-eye circles are often neutralized with peach or orange pigments, while brownish circles require apricot-based shades. The formulation should remain lightweight to avoid settling into fine lines.

Can a complexion corrector dry out the skin?

Formulations rich in pigments or absorbent powders can exacerbate skin dryness. Pre-application of a hydrating skincare product generally enhances comfort. Formulations enriched with hydrating agents are better tolerated.

Do complexion correctors contain active skincare ingredients?

Some formulations integrate hydrating or soothing agents, but this isn’t always the case. However, this is the case for the T33 anti-redness corrector by Typology.

How to effectively remove a color-correcting concealer at the end of the day?

Quite simply with a gentle makeup remover.
