How do I cover fatty deposits?

[Julie Lundie]

Hi everyone,
I've been asked to do a Friends mum's make up for a wedding, the only problem is the lady has very large 'fatty deposits' around her eyes. She is very self conscious about them and is even more so because she is giving the bride away and knows she will be looked at a lot! How would I cover them with out the make up being to obvious? Any tips would be helpful

I usually do it with a concealer and a powder foundation. I initially put the concealer on the area which needs to be "fixed". The shade should be similar with the skin - not too light nor dark. Then apply the powder-foundation. Some uses wet sponge to make the foundation stay longer but this still depends on the skin and type of foundation. You can try Maxfactor for the foundation and concealer. Btw, I'm not affiliated to the brand, I'm just an avid user of their products.

Thank you for you tip


I've just got the maybelline super stay 24 hour concealer, just to start trying things.
To be honest it's doing a good job so far, fingers are still crossed!! I was wondering if I should darken the area slightly first to tone down the very yellow colour?

I'm going to try a camouflage kit I've just got, I will do before and after photo of a tattoo, just to show how well it covers. (If I'm able to, that is)

Once again thanks for the tip

Julie

Hi everyone,
the make up for the lady with problem eye's is all done and dusted. I happy to say it went very well and I did manage to conceal the fatty deposits successfully. I do have before and after photo's to post, as I'm doing a marathon today, it will be tomorrow they go on. Thank you for you tips it really did help.
