When you wake up to find a big angry pimple on your face, you may be tempted to pop it, dry it out, then apply concealer, hoping that no one will notice it. But did you know that doing that can lead to infection, making your pimple bigger and angrier than ever? Popping a pimple makes it an open wound, and putting makeup on broken skin is never a good idea. Also, a lot of makeup can clog pores, which is really the reason for pimples and blemishes in the first place.

If you really want to cover up your pimple with makeup, the first step is to NOT pop the pimple to keep the skin intact. Next, go through your usual cleanse-tone-moisturize regimen, to prepare your face to be made up. Wash your hands too, to make sure that they’re clean before you touch your pimple. Before even applying your makeup, check to see that the makeup you use is oil-free and non-comedogenic (doesn’t clog your pores), so that it doesn’t make your pimple even worse.

Before using any makeup on your face, use an acne-clearing product like the new Céleteque DermoScience Acne Solutions Acne-Clearing Concealer, to protect and treat the pimple before putting on other layers.

The Céleteque Acne-Clearing Concealer is different from regular concealers because it has Salicylic acid that opens up pores and exfoliates the dead skin cells, and Camellia sinensis extract that has soothing and antibacterial properties to treat the pimple. It’s very easy to apply because of the pointed tip!

Once you’ve treated and covered the pimple, go on and apply your foundation, blending it into the sides of the pimple. Remember that shine actually accentuates the pimple, so apply matte powder to set your foundation.

A makeup artist trick is to use a Hydrating Mist over your powder for a more natural finish.

Of course, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so it’s better to have a skin care routine that will clear up your skin in the first place. Check out the Céleteque Acne Solutions line that has been clinically tested to make skin 80% clearer in just 2 weeks!
