A makeup artist shared the three-step concealer technique that mimics a facelift.
The affordable beauty hack only takes a minute to perform.
Kevin Kodra (@kevikodra) shared the makeup tip in a viral TikTok video.
“I don’t mean to be rude, but… someone had to tell you. This is the only way you can use concealer,” he said.
“The key to perfect concealer placement is to be ultra-precise.”
As $29 Nudefix Cream ConcealerKodra applied a thin layer under the inner corner of the lower eyes.
“Make sure to keep this tight to the bottom of your eyes and don’t go too low,” he advised.
Then he added a line of concealer to the outer corner of her eye.
“This line has to be in the same direction as the lower angle of the eyebrow. This is literally a free makeup facelift,” he said.
Kodra added concealer to the center of her forehead, dragging a line to the highest point of the bridge of her nose.

“And a little just below its outline,” he said.
The professional makeup artist recommended following your “concealer map” with each application.
The difficult part of achieving the perfect look, however, is the blending.
“Placing your concealer is only half the battle. The way you mix it is another thing,” he said.
Kodra explained that the correct blending order is the forehead, then the sides of the nose, below the contour, and finally under the eyes.
“Watch this mix literally come to life,” he said.
This line should be in the same direction as the lower angle of the eyebrow. This is literally a free makeup facelift.

Once all the concealer is well mixed, he recommended setting it immediately with powder to avoid creasing.
“It looks even better when you finish the rest of the makeup,” he said.
People were grateful for the simple and effective makeup trick.
“I followed your makeup steps and it’s the best my makeup has ever done,” said one commenter.
“Just some advice I will follow,” added a dedicated fan.
“Kevin, I bought the Nudestix concealer because of you!” said a third.
