Using Skin Camouflage

Skin camouflage is often under-appreciated by dermatologists, as they don't genuinely treat any blemishes or imperfections, but they serve an important function in cosmetics. They can be applied to hide all sorts of blemishes or pigmentation irregularities. One of the keys to using camouflages is to choose the appropriate colours. Each colour has its strengths and specific use.

Green

Mauve

Lavender

Lavender is good at concealing yellowish bruises. It can also cover light shades of Hyperpigmentation.
