Concealing spots without making them worse

When spots strike, concealing them is the first concern for many, and provided you’re using a suitable product to conceal, there’s no reason why you need to leave them completely uncovered.

Using a concealing product can help to restore skin confidence in many of us, although this confidence might be very short-lived if you’re using an unsuitable product which actually makes the situation worse.

When it comes to concealer, less is often more, as using layer upon layer on a thick product could result in pores becoming congested and further spots making an appearance.

Investing in a good quality concealer which doesn’t require numerous layers to be applied in order for it to conceal properly will help you to avoid potential skin congestion- and Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment offers all of this and more.

Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment not only helps to cover spots in a light and natural manner, it also helps to clear spots up.

Whilst it’s hiding spots and blemishes, Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment also dries them out- plus it also helps to soothe irritation in the process.

So, why risk concealing spots yet making them worse when you can enjoy the numerous fantastic benefits which the Concealing Spot Treatment offers?

Why your clumpy old concealer could be doing more harm than good

For many, a concealer always has pride of place in their makeup bag, as it’s pretty much impossible to know when a spot or blemish might decide to strike, so it always pays to be prepared.

When you only use your concealer very occasionally though, it can last for a very long time, and it can be easy to think that it’s fine to continue to use it when there’s product left- even if it’s so old that you can’t remember where you bought it.

Continuing to use an old concealer is s major mistake though, as in addition to losing its efficiency, it’s also likely to be extremely unhygienic.

With time, many concealers tend to become thick and clumpy- and their consistency is no longer suitable for properly covering spots. In fact, it could actually attract attention to spots and blemishes.

An old concealer is also likely to be covered with bacteria- even more so if you apply the product directly to the skin without an applicator or makeup brush. It’s easy to see just how bad for the skin this can be.

Instead, invest in higher quality product which conceals and zaps spots simultaneously- such as Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment- and which won’t quickly turn clumpy like many stick concealers do.

Treating and concealing spots simultaneously

The appearance of a spot leads to many people heading straight for the make up bag and straight for the concealer, and the use of this concealer continues until said spot finally decides to disappear.

Waiting for a stubborn spot to disappear can really drag on, and even when it’s only stuck around for a few days it can feel like a great deal longer. Many people use a separate concealer and treatment product when spots strike, although in some cases this can clog pores even further.

Most standard concealers also only hide spots until they decide to disappear of their own accord, although you don’t simply have to wait for nature to run its course, as by investing in Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment you can gives spots the boot a bit more speedily.

Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment treats and conceals simultaneously, and as the product clears pores and eliminates bacteria, you don’t need to worry about it making the situation worse.

As well as treating and concealing existing blemishes, Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment also helps to prevent future breakouts- which makes it even more of a spot-zapping essential.

Is it essential to let spots run their course?

When it comes to dealing with spots, there are often very conflicting opinions regarding the best way of treating them and the best way of ensuring that they disappear as quickly as possible, and with so many different opinions flying around, things can get very confusing.

We all know that poking and picking at spots is big no-go, and however much you might try your damnedest to convince yourself otherwise, it won’t make them vanish more speedily- and you could in fact find yourself facing permanent scarring.

The only time it is acceptable to touch spots is when you are applying products to them- and even then you should ensure that hands are spotlessly clean (pun intended!)

You don’t have to let spots completely run their own course though, as there are some great products within the Dermalogica MediBac Clearing System range which will help to shorten the life-span of pesky pimples.

The Dermalogica Concealing Spot Treatment is a great product for those who want to conceal and heal simultaneously, and the Overnight Clearing Gel is a must-have for those who want to wake up to a clearer complexion.

So, why allow spots to run a completely natural course when Dermalogica can help you to see the back of them a little more quickly?!

Whether your skin is prone to regular or just the odd breakout, the impact on confidence can be equally as huge, although as there are so many great products out there which can not only conceal spots but which can also help to clear them up, it’s simple to get your confidence soaring again.
