Testing the Viral Pink Concealer Trend on Brown Skin: A Deep Dive into a Makeup Fad Not Designed for My Skin Tone


Without having access to a particular makeup tutorial video, I’ll use a hypothetical example for this task. I’ll imagine a YouTube tutorial showcasing a glamorous smoky eye look with bold red lips.

Title: Glam Up with a Classic Smoky Eye and Bold Red Lip Look

Introduction:
Embark on a journey to recreate one of the most glamorous makeup looks that never goes out of style – the classic smoky eye paired with bold red lips. This makeup tutorial by the acclaimed beauty guru ‘BeautyBelle’ breaks down the process into easy-to-follow steps, specific techniques, and insider tricks for a flawless and impressive finish.

Step-by-Step Guide:
1. **Start with a Bare Canvas**: Begin by cleansing, toning, and moisturizing your face. Allow the moisturizer to sink in for a few minutes before applying primer.
2. **Foundation and Concelaer**: Apply foundation and concealer for a perfect base, reminding us that blending is key to achieving a flawless look.
3. **Contour and Highlight**: Sculpt your face with subtle contouring and highlighting. BeautyBelle stresses the importance of blending to avoid harsh lines.
4. **The Smoky Eye**: This is where the magic begins. Start with a neutral base eyeshadow and gradually add darker shades, blending each layer well. Add a hint of shimmer to the center of the eyelids for a dramatic effect.
5. **Bold red lips**: Outline your lips using a red lip liner. Then fill in using your choice of red lipstick. BeautyBelle recommends going for a shade that complements your skin tone.
6. **Finishing Touches**: Finish off with a dust of setting powder and a spritz of makeup setting spray.

Key Tips and Advice:
Use a brush for blending eyeshadows, instead of your finger for a seamless transition. Invest in a good quality eye primer for your eyeshadow to stick better and last longer. When applying lipstick, start at the center of the lips and move outwards for a symmetrical application.

Conclusion:
By following BeautyBelle’s insightful tutorial, you too can master the classic smoky eye and bold red lip look. As she often encourages, remember, practice makes perfect. So, don’t be disheartened if your first few tries don’t look perfect.

Product and Tool Listing:
– **Cleanser, Toner, and Moisturizer**: Preparation is key to a perfect makeup application.
– **Foundation and Concealer**: For an even skin tone and to conceal imperfections.
– **Contouring and Highlighting Kit**: To add depth and bring light to the face.
– **Neutral and Dark Eyeshadows**: For creating the smoky eye effect.
– **Red Lip Liner and Lipstick**: To create bold, stunning lips.
– **Setting Powder and Setting Spray**: To ensure your makeup stays intact.

By translating the video tutorial into an accessible article, we hope to inspire all makeup enthusiasts to confidently attempt this glamourous look at home. Happy experimenting!

    I don’t think every individual product needs to be brown girl friendly but every product should have shades that are brown girl friendly

    Oh i hate this shade so much idk why. I think this is the shade porcelain and when i went to the makeup shop to buy it the girl on Maybelline section said " oh you are white this one is best for you" and my dumb ass bought it. Now i regret it alotttt like how a employee doesn't know the skin tones. I might be fair but i have natural skintone.

    i’m medium but with a cool skin tone. I absolutely love pink concealer and pink powders, they work so well for me

    This concealer is the only one that has my exact shade. I literally have yellow undertone.

    Why did she even try that? That is a shade of concealer- it obviously didn’t match

    I'm not brown, and that concealer looks horrid on me, too. I am not pale or cool enough for it. I fooled myself for years, thinking it would work, but I look at pictures of myself from the mid 2000's when this first became popular and my under eyes are giving ghost. Giving ashy. It is bad. I know use a more peachy/light salmon color and I look much better. It really only works if you are the most pale person.

    i feel like people with darker skin can wear pink concealers however you have a warmer undertone so it’s not going to look best on you❤️

    Not the everyday look, but might work for a more drag inspired look.

    that would totally work for my winter shade. i’m mostly white so in the winter i’m extremely pale but in the summer i get really tan so i need a whole new makeup routine 😅

    I think pink concealer could still work but this shade is too light for you

    I think it’s aimed at the over 40’s. I used it a few times and like it. But at nearly 50 I don’t even bother.

    This is the best concealer for me because I have such pale pinky skin that this is the only shade that actually looks natural on me.
