You don't need to call a correct to then add four layers of full coverage foundation. It doesn't make sense. You want to use less or less. You want to just be less, lessness, less, less, less. What's up my beautiful dreams and welcome back for another video with your girl. Shalendo one. So in this video guys I want to talk to you guys about color correcting. While we do it, if it's even deemed necessary, the importance of finding the right color correcting product to use and all that good stuff. I get tons of questions about color correcting. You guys have noticed that in some of my videos I skip color correcting. The only reason why I do that is because a lot of times when I'm reviewing a foundation I really want to figure out and see the power of that foundation. What exactly does it do? But in the bulk of the time I do color correct and in the demo you will see exactly why. So in this video I'll be showing you exactly that. I will be demonstrating to you what I use, how I color correct and the way to know if it's doing if you're doing it the right way. The result that you should get after color correcting. If you're color correcting with the right product, that's what I'll be showing you in this video.

I know you might as well just go ahead and give it out the way because you know what I'm going to say it again at the end but I mean like you're going to watch. So you might as well click click, click click, just get it out the way. This is going to get it out the way. And as you've done that, we can move on with demo. So what is color correcting? Why do we do it? What is it for? What? I mean what is it in result? We all probably have some idea. Let's talk about color correcting. First off what is color correcting? Color correcting is when you use the opposite color on the color wheel to. Even out of color. So prime example. Blue is the opposite of orange. So before we go any further, I need to explain one thing. The reason why there are certain things on your face is certain areas on your face that is dark. It looks like darkness but it's not black and it's not brown. It's blue. Blue vessels underneath the skin that causes the darkness that you see. For those who may have red vessels, it might have a lot of reteness in their face. Prime maybe like if you're a light skin and you have pimples and things like that, you would use green. Green would count to act that reteness. So with that being said, you just want something that's going to count to act that color that's going to really tone down or even eliminate the color altogether. I am going to be talking and gauging this video more towards darker skin women of color. Okay. Just because we're going to be talking primarily about orange concealers. Good old orange. We have seen people go so far to where they're using neon orange, dark orange, pumpkin orange, orange all the way to like red to where there's something that's actually using red on their face to count and act that darkness. Please stop doing that. Please stop doing that and I'm going to tell you the reason why you shouldn't do that. The reason why you shouldn't do that and the reason why is so imperative to find the right shade for your skin is because you do not want to apply all this orange and red to your face. Then after you apply your foundation, you can still see the orange and red. Like it changes the color of the foundation. If it's, if I put it on and you can still see it, it's not the right color. The point of color correcting is to apply a color that literally counter acts the darkness. You should not be able to see the darkness and you should not be able to see the color and the tint of the character. I use the correct it from Smashbox. It's a Smashbox color correcting stick. Look less tired. This is their dark pencil. This is where it looks. It comes in pencil form and that is the color. That is the color. It is not dark orange. It is not neon bright peach. It is the perfect color of orange for me to counteract the darkness on my face. The objective is to apply this to dark areas and to not even notice that I put it on. You want to see what I'm talking about? I figured you would. So before anything else, you have to move over proper skincare. I like to start off with a face spray and my primers, my moisturizers, all that good stuff as well as my eye cream. The eye cream is really important because you always want to make sure that the undefined eye is well moisturized. So the first thing you're going to see me doing is really evaluating my face. I'm not just going to go straight in and just start applying products all over the place. I'm going to look at my face and say, where do I need this? I have darkness underneath my eyes. I have darkness around my mouth and at the bottom of my chin on both edges of my chin. So that is the very specific areas that I'm going to apply it. So what I like to do is you can use your fingers to blend it out, but I love to use a brush. And this brush is by Sedona Lace. It's in my 217. I love this Concealer brush because it allows me to pat the products into place and then use circular motions to blend out the edges. And after blending it out, on one side, you can see how it doesn't even look like I applied anything. It literally looks like it's the skin I'm supposed to have. It doesn't look like I put on a corrector or doesn't look like I put on a concealer. It looks like the skin I'm supposed to have because this right, the right color of orange has now neutralized the darkness. Okay. So now my under eye looks just like my forehead. It looks like they marry. They're supposed to be there. That is what a corrector is supposed to be useful. You don't need to color correct to then add four layers of full coverage foundation. Doesn't make sense. You want to use less and more. You want to just be less, less, less, less, less, less, less. So guys, there you have it. I hope that this video helps. In this video, the point, the point of this video was a few things. Do you really need to color correct? Really evaluate and looking yourself in a mirror, identifying what you see wrong and if it's really deemed necessary for you to color correct. And then if you feel like that you do need to color correct, are you using the right product? There's tons of product out there, all ranging on different colors, making sure you use the right one to complement your skin tone so that it corrects properly. And so, so that was the point of this video and I hope that it helps. Guys, I love you so much. If you haven't done so already, please rate, comment, and subscribe.
