Orion's belt is back. Okay guys, so real talk. I usually get so self-conscious whenever I have
Breakouts, I feel like a lot of us probably do
We're cutting that out
I'm literally trying my best to
360 that and turn that around and like be like, okay
well
This is a great opportunity for me to show you guys how to cover your you know acne or acne
Scars or at whatever point that your breakout is in if you're not subscribed go ahead. It's a
Love you. I will love you forever. So obviously I've already done my brows
I'm only gonna be focusing on the face makeup and primer is very important for covering acne because you want something that's gonna
smooth out the surface
I'm
In the phase of my acne phases like acne has phases like moons, but I'm in the phase of scarring right now
So it's passed the state of being bumpy
I guess you could say where there's little bumps
But I want to give you guys tips and tricks for like even if you had that texture under the skin
so something that's gonna make a smooth surface is 100% what I recommend so I'm gonna use the
Smashbox original photo finish primer today another really good one for this step if you want a drugstore option is the elf
Poreless putty no it not poreless primer putty primer. Wait, let me go get it now that my room is clean
I can literally just go find stuff
So anyways, this is another really really good one for that texture under the skin if you're having a bad break out
So I'm gonna smooth this over the skin
Something I live by okay live by is
to
Actually do a lot of skincare when you're having these breakouts if you're gonna be wearing makeup because I feel like the skincare
Actually creates a barrier so that your makeup
Doesn't get into the pores and get into the breakouts, especially if they're open. You don't want them to get infected
so I'm going over the outer corners of the face with my
Smashbox primer oil to give some extra glow
What is happening all over my face like why is there little bubbles everywhere? I don't know
I'm gonna put just a little bit of the elf poreless putty primer right here on the t-zone
Just because I really want this section between my brows to be nice and smooth under the makeup
Next up we're going to going with some foundation. I
Don't know why I was loading this up inside of this anyways foundation. You want something that is full coverage
but very lightweight so you don't want to cake on your foundation too heavy when you have
breakouts going on because sometimes the breakouts can try to
Emerge through the foundation and it just looks like a mess
So what I'm using is the lorac Pro soft focus long wear foundation
I've really been liking this one because you can see it almost sounds like a serum feel. It's really really lightweight
You can see the texture
there
Yes, the shade is a little dark for me right now
But once I you know put on my concealer and everything, it's gonna be a-okay you can see how thin it is
But once I put it on my little pimple there and blend out
It's gonna cover it completely so lightweight but full coverage. Those are the two things you want. Yay
I already feel much better and much more confident. Now that that redness and everything is gone
I'm gonna go in and press the foundation into my skin with
My Beauty Blender just to get it nice and blended and when you start to blend if you have an open scar like that
You'll see it start to come through a little bit, but we're gonna fix that later
so no worries if that happens guys, honestly, I've been
Mentally, it's so unstable lately. Like I just feel like
sometimes I just feel like I need to change myself or change my personality because I'm not good enough, or I'm not
Pretty enough or my I don't even know dude, like it's crazy. It's it's just crazy the amount of negative thoughts that we
Put onto ourselves and I'm sure that a lot of you guys are probably feeling this too. And I feel like the biggest thing that
We have to start doing is
just
Telling ourselves that we are enough and we are good enough and I've been this book
Well, my boyfriend's actually he's been reading it for like a couple years, but I guess he's never finished it
So he recommended it to me. So I've like started reading little bits here and there
it's called Darrin greatly by Bernie Brown even just I'm gonna start like it's so helpful and so relatable to
everything that I feel on a daily basis and you know
Like putting myself out online and stuff like basically what she talks about is like people cannot judge you from the outer
Perspective like you cannot base your feelings on somebody else's
perspective of you happiness is found within yourself and you have to realize that and you have to practice being kind to yourself and
Fulfilling your own happiness because nobody else is gonna do it except for you. By the way. I'm just
Highlighting underneath my eyes. This part doesn't really have to do with acne
So when you're in that ring when you put yourself out there when you dare greatly when you are
Being brave with whatever it is that you're trying to accomplish you're already winning
Even though you're gonna go through many failures in your life. You've already won so somebody that's
Not on that stage that's sitting in the audience
cannot judge you because they don't know what you're going through and they don't know what you're
Feeling and you know for me like a lot of times like all these hate comments and whatever of saying that I'm annoying or saying
that
My personality is crazy or whatever it is, like whatever the hate comments. Maybe nobody else's opinion should matter
Except for my own opinion of myself, which I am in control of
Ha Wow
this just became very
Self-help, but yeah, I don't know. It's just like what I've been going through lately
So here's where the good stuff starts to come in when you are breaking out you want to have three different concealers
Handy, okay, you want to have one that's a highlighting concealer one?
That's a concealer that's closest to your foundation color or your skin color and then one that
Why does my camera always go out of focus? It's very confusing to me. Anyways, the last one
Contour concealers. So the reasoning behind this is because obviously we all get breakouts in completely different places. Um,
You know by the day by the week, whatever and so you need to spot conceal those
Spots or those blemishes or those acne scars?
With a product that is the same shade as that particular part of your face or part of your makeup
So let's say if I have a concealer, that's right. I mean
Let's say I have a blemish or a pimple or a scart. That's right here
I'm not gonna use the same exact concealer as I'm gonna put under my eyes because then it's gonna highlight that area and it's not
gonna blend in the main premise of this entire tutorial to help cover acne scars and acne in general is that
You want to blend in with the rest of your makeup?
So obviously as you guys saw I already went in with one layer of concealer under the eyes
I'm gonna go in with a second layer of the same concealer
So this is the Too Faced Born This Way multi-use sculpting concealer in nude
So this is my highlighting shade for underneath the eyes and down the center of the face my big guy
It's right in the center of the face. So I'm obviously covering it with this highlighting shade
Boom and as I mentioned you do want a concealer, that's about the same shade as your skin tone sort of this guy
I'm gonna use the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD light capturing self setting concealer a self setting concealer
Well count how many times I've messed up my words in this video already
So I'm gonna go in with that concealer in a mix of 44 and 34
And place that right over that pitbull because see this one is not in an area where I would normally be contouring or highlighting
So I'm not going to use those this guy up here
It's already pretty hidden by the foundation, but I still just want to make sure that it stays hidden
I'm gonna go in with my contouring concealer shade
So this is the Born This Way will tell you sculpting concealer in mocha
And I'm just gonna pop that on
But then also go in and actually place this product down so that we could get a nice little contour going
and then obviously you want to go in and
Blend that in starting with the lightest then going up to the darkest and I swear you guys this technique helps so much
Especially if you're dealing with acne scars because it's actually gonna help to just blend everything together and make everything look nice and full
Listen
This already makes a huge difference obviously
so again, just try to look for a full coverage concealers that have a good consistency for your skin type and
next we're gonna move into powder because you could see when you look really closely and definitely in person this one still has
texture to it basically like how I like to think about it is
coloring can be fixed with
creams and liquids foundation and concealer
Texture can be fixed with powder
What I want to do with that spot in particular is take my Beauty Blender and use powder
To press that into the skin and you see do you see how that almost immediately?
made that whole entire spot disappear
So really pressing that powder right into the skin in those areas that you have texture that you really want something to cover
Is gonna make a huge difference like huge? I?
Don't even mean to do it like that. But like I'm actually serious like huge difference
This also really helps with dark under eyes and helping keep the concealer on a lot longer as well
Love that. So this is a good example see how this one is raised up. What you want to do for the hot is
Take your powder
You can use any full coverage powder that you have at home and you actually want to
Powder around that spot. I needed a little bit of a darker color
First I was using the Mac Studio Fix now. I'm using the make up forevers
Not that with skin
and
You're gonna actually powder around it because basically what you're trying to do is even it out as much as possible
Around the pimple so that it stands out less. I don't remember who I first saw do this technique
I definitely did not make this part up
I think maybe it was desi years ago
But it's a really really helpful technique and obviously depending how big the pimple is that you're trying to cover
It may be less time or more time
This one's kind of like hella raised so I don't think I'm gonna be able to completely remove it
But I think it still looks a lot better
With the contour areas if you use a bronzer or a darker foundation powder
Sometimes when pimples are on the side of my face they like to be honest with you. I don't really care as much
like yeah, obviously, I wish I had like perfectly clear skin all the time, but when it's in the center of the face
That's when it really bothers me or like on the tops of my cheeks
Okay, obviously, I'm just gonna go in and be clit again. That doesn't really
Whole
concealing
How do we through these things so quick oh my god
it does honestly make your skin look so smooth and flawless though, like very Kylie Jenner when you put a
Press powder underneath of the baking powder
I've talked about this before but like it's ball like it literally that gives you that soft matte finish
I feel like all the Kardashians they never really have like super glowy skin to be honest because highlight
Definitely brings out more texture
Like if you have matte skin you're gonna have less texture and more of a soft like doll-like effect
Sorry, I logged on to Karen's wife I like like give some support, you know
it's actually crazy cuz normally we're always going to events and like seeing each other and like
Literally, I don't know it just been it's been crazy. It's been really surreal
But anyways, so you can see I have a little bit of texture right here
So I already started doing this while I was not filming cuz I was kind of letting the baking powder set
but you want to go over that with your pressed powder and try to make it as matte as
Possible and that's really gonna help it look smoother texture is hard
You guys texture is really difficult to get rid of completely
but like all we can do is try our best and once I finish off the rest of my makeup you can see
It looks so much better. I
definitely am on like this journey to you know, try be loving towards myself and love myself in my real skin, but
but I think for the time being
It's really great to have like a little routine like this that I know
Works that I know will definitely pick up my confidence
Like I feel like a different person now, you know what I mean?
And it's just something handy to know what to do when you do have texture when you do have
Discoloration or scarring or whatever it is that you want to cover
I really hope this video helps you guys because that's like my whole main point obviously
And you know if you right not right now maybe because we're in Cordy
But like if you are going somewhere where you have a breakout
But you need to know how to cover it to feel like the best version of yourself. Maybe you're going on a date
Maybe you're going on an interview
Maybe you know what? I mean, like whatever you're doing if you want to feel the best version of yourself. I hope this little tutorial
Helps. Yeah, I love you guys. Thank you for always making me feel so loved too
Most of you like most my rock stars out there
Because you know when I went on my story with all my acne and stuff
like I was really scared to post those because I just felt like I looked so trash and
it made me really really happy and one of the things that motivated me to actually filmed this video was because
so many of you guys message me and deemed me being like, you know, I
Love that you're showing your real skin. I love this
I love that and that
really really encouraged me and just made me feel like
I wanted to do something that if you're going through the same thing that I'm going through right now that could help you
So anyways, I love you guys so much and I'll see you in my next video
remember you are beautiful inside and out and I really really
Mean that bye guys
