The One Life-Changing Makeup Trick For Covering A Pimple Fast, According To A Makeup Artist

MAC Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer ($22)

“To quickly cover a pimple, a thick cream concealer warmed up on a fingertip is the best way to go,” said Bartlett. “Dab gently on the skin to cover. To make sure the product is fully able to blend and cover the blemish, Bartlett said, “Ensure the color is the same or slightly deeper than your skin tone so it doesn't stand out and look out of place. I love MAC Studio Finish concealer.”

While Bartlett advises blending the concealer onto the pimple with your fingertip, you can use a small concealer brush if you prefer. This mini concealer brush is small and precise to allow you maximum coverage.

To ensure the concealer stays put and covers your pimple all day long, use a setting powder on top of it. You can use the concealer brush again to directly dab setting powder onto the blemish.
