Interesting way to color correct. I usually use color correcting shades underneath my foundation and concealer so I don't have to use too much of either one. I suggest you try green and yellow for redness and the lilac shade for brown spots and peach for under eyes darkness, it works great for me and I am a NC20 or C3 in Mac shades which is probably close to your skin tone.
Yes u r correct ❤ u always do it underneath foundation but again there's no rules to makeup just a theory and that theory is to do all color correcting before u apply foundation/concealer
Colour correcting is based on colour theory. It's not that scary really. In school you learned that red and yellow make orange, blue and red make purple and blue and yellow make green. That means that the colour straight across from it on the "wheel" cancels it out,sort of. Blue veins? Use orange/peach. Brown spots? (Brown is a dark orange) use blue. Just shift more one way or the other until you find your sweet spot.
Nikki LaRose has great videos on color correcting. Peach seems to work best at canceling out blue in the corners of the eyes, and Huda Beauty has pretty highly rated color correcting products.
You should try the bronzy drop/shade things under makeup. I think thats what they are normally made for. If you want to try them again or for that reason.
Color correcting is based on color wheel theory. Green cancels red, yellow cancels purple, peach (orange) cancels blue, purple will cancel yellow/brown tones. I agree with others that correctors typically used before concealer/foundation. Thanks for sharing all the new products!
Robert Welsh did a good, easy to understand color correcting video. I don't do it but Theresa is Dead does. I think you color correct under foundation and concealer.
And the color correcting isnt gimmicky i promise its a very good technique most makeup artist do if u have dark circles! It works beautiful in small thin layers ❤
I’m sure that’s not going to happen. We left lots of comments about it a couple of months ago and she never even addressed it. I love her videos and I like her a lot but it just makes me feel like she doesn’t care about her viewers at all if she doesn’t take time to reply to at least some comments or even give alike/ heart to them
I really like Mandy’s videos, but she doesn’t seem to want to branch out beyond just the few products she shares in videos. I really wish she would share more about her clothes, nail colors, etc in the description box (that’s all I’m asking for). I always adore her nail polish but never know what shade/brand it is, which is a bummer honestly. I’m sure there are others that would like this info too.
Color correction is an extra step but can be beneficial to u if done properly. Most ppl use the bronzing drops mixed into a moisturizer before foundation or used alone.
Peach covers most things. I have dark circles on my UPPER lids. I use color corrector and concealer unless I’m using Kulfi. That’s covers well and I don’t need a corrector with that concealer. Love it!!
I generally use color corrector over primer, but under foundation, and I also conceal as needed. I always conceal under my eyes, even with the color corrector. I occasionally conceal spots.
Try doing color correcting prior to putting on foundation. Also do color correcting under your eyes prior to putting on foundation & using concealer . It took me some time to get the hang of using color correcting, but can now say it really does help!
Green concealer def cancels out redness it truly does but I've found in research it seems like every brand has a different color they say will cancel out under eye circles and discoloration.. can be a bit confusing especially since I'm a novice when it comes to makeup! I never wore makeup at all but had a little girl at 36! my first and only kiddo- I actually was told I couldnt have children so she's such a blessing!! And we're having a blast honestly lol now she's 7 and I decided I was going to learn how to apply abd wear makeup so I could teach her when she's old enough to wear! Lol quite the experience at 42 lol!! I guess I didn't have an older sister to teach me how to wear
For under eyes (I don’t put foundation under eyes)I color correct after foundation, before concealing, if you are doing face, you color correct before foundation.
I use color corrector everyday, but just under my eyes for my dark circles. Then I top it with concealer and powder. I use a peachy color, the Becca x Smashbox one is the one I'm using right now.
I color correct with light peach. I do use concealer but not nearly as much. I use it before foundation. That works the best. I do have a green concealer for my redness. Again, I use it before foundation.
I use color corrector. I’ve never seen green personally, I have very dark blue green veins under both eyes. My corrector has always been in the peach ranges.
Try a reddish color corrector to cover that dark spot. I have a reddish color cream blush that I used to color correct under my eyes and mix it with a darker peach color corrector from the 6-pan palette from nyx. I use the darkest shade in that palette. Both work like a charm on my under eye dark spot that nothing seems to work. Give it a try then conceal
I do some colour correcting on my dark under eyes. At the mo I'm using the Pixi one which is nice. I would like to try the NYX stick one in pink next. Some days I can get away without concealer on top but most days I do use it. Emma x
I Use a coral-pink liquid lip color, Marshmallow Cloud Pout in Marshmallow Madness or Pour Some Sugar On Me, from WetNWild as a color corrector on the inside corners of my eyes. I put some Elf Hydrating Camo concealer in Light Ivory or Fair Rose concealer in there too and tap the two colors in to blend them. Sometimes I need something a little heavier, like Flower Beauty's new Serum concealer in Vanilla or Porcelain; both have a more natural skintone product. I Like the liquid lip bc it's emollient without being goopy or greasy, and it has no sparkle or fragrance. However, it's been discontinued, so I'm trying new products now. Thanks for the video!
Loved the way your eyes turned out and have heard about the Persona shadows before and have been toying w/ purchasing Oro. I really liked the Sigma matte shadows you used w/ the Persona shadow. What shades of browns or actual Sigma colors did you use to compliment the Persona shadow? Stunning and would love to achieve a similar look!! Thank you!
I think the color correctors go under foundation. Green cancels red and peach cancels blue / purple. Also the drops are meant to go under foundation too with a moisturizer or sunscreen.
Your videos are always wonderful! I love how many drugstore products you use! Suggestion: the way I have seen bronzing drops used is mixed in your foundation or skin tint, not as a bronzer after foundation! Maybe that would make those products better! 💕
I've never tried color correction. First of all, I have no idea what I'm doing or where I'd need it. And apart from green correcting red, I don't know what the other colors are for or how to use them
Hi, Mandy! You look lovely as always. i love that shirt on you, nice colour for you. :) i'm curious if that yellow would cover hickeys, haha. :) Thank you for sharing your thoughts, sug. ❤ Love your frugality, btw, and that you often include your 'bloopers.'
PLEASE post your nail color, jewelry and clothing in the description on your videos. I really love your content and am always confused why you wouldn’t provide this info, especially when you could make money off of it. Thanks :)
It's an "extra step" because it isn't something she normally does, I think. I've never used color corrector either and that's what I thought she meant.
How many people are going to comment “use color correctors before foundation”? 😂 Don’t people read the comments and see it’s already been written 20 times in the comment section? 😂🤦🏻♀️
Very pretty. Why don't you speak to one of those online doctors and get some help with your Melasma? Surely it couldn't hurt. They can customize a skin fegime for you.❤✔️💯❗❓❓❓

Mandy try doing all color correcting before foundation and concealer ❤ it will work so much better!
Have you ever tried placing your blush higher up? I think it would look beautiful, you have great cheek bones and alway place your blush so low.
Nikki LaRose has great videos on color correcting. Peach seems to work best at canceling out blue in the corners of the eyes, and Huda Beauty has pretty highly rated color correcting products.
Color correcting should be done 1st. Then apply the base. Also those bronzing drop get applied 1st as well. Under your foundation.

Peach works for my dark undereye circles, and green for dark spots. Both used prior to foundation application works better for me.

Hi Mandy! We would love for you to join us in the comments section sometimes!!

I love Mandy and her videos so much and have watched for a LONG TIME. Would love if she would join us in her UA-cam community 👍🏼❤️
@@Queenmarie88I’ve asked questions, you never get so much as an emoji back! It’s like it’s an annoying thing, I think you get paid on views!
Color correct under your concealer and fondation always.
Have you tried mixing the bronzing drops with a moisturizer?
Green cancels redness. I use a peach concealer for dark spots
I love the $2 Elf lip liners, but I totally agree that a long-wear version would be an excellent addition to the lineup!
Color correction is an extra step but can be beneficial to u if done properly. Most ppl use the bronzing drops mixed into a moisturizer before foundation or used alone.
Once you find the correct shades to use, they allow you to use less foundation and concealer over them. Color correcting comes first.
Peach covers most things. I have dark circles on my UPPER lids. I use color corrector and concealer unless I’m using Kulfi. That’s covers well and I don’t need a corrector with that concealer. Love it!!

I color correct with light peach. I do use concealer but not nearly as much. I use it before foundation. That works the best. I do have a green concealer for my redness. Again, I use it before foundation.
I use a peach for spots and blend with a brush and not a sponge because the sponge seems to take it right off if I am color correcting. 🤷♀
The elf love triangle lip liners are really long wearing on me. And the shades are really flattering.
I use color corrector. I’ve never seen green personally, I have very dark blue green veins under both eyes. My corrector has always been in the peach ranges.
The green is a good color corrector for redness.
Green is meant for redness and color correction goes on first.

Color correcting always goes under foundation and then everything else. With liquid eyeshadow less is more is the key especially with mature skin
Use the peach for the dark spots & hyperpigmentation
I do some colour correcting on my dark under eyes. At the mo I'm using the Pixi one which is nice. I would like to try the NYX stick one in pink next. Some days I can get away without concealer on top but most days I do use it. Emma x
The green to cover redness
Color correction, foundation,concealer etc
Before i got rid of most under eye darkness used peach corrector under foundation
Me too I always use my green color corrector under my foundation.
I use Neutrogena peach color corrector under my eyes before any other makeup. It immediately and obviously improves my dark circles.
I use the orange for my under eye dark areas and then use concealer with a wet brush sprayed with setting spray to keep from creasing
I Use a coral-pink liquid lip color, Marshmallow Cloud Pout in Marshmallow Madness or Pour Some Sugar On Me, from WetNWild as a color corrector on the inside corners of my eyes.

When I get a rosacea flair, I color correct before foundation. The trick is finding one that’s sturdy enough to not be wiped away by the foundation.
I put it on before my concealer under my eyes.
I use color corrector in pink or peach then concealer
Mandy… have you ever tried a gentle face peel? There is a two week prep work time to do before you can do a peel, but worth it.
Use an opaque waterproof foundation on darkspots to protect them from sun
Your videos are always wonderful! I love how many drugstore products you use!
Suggestion: the way I have seen bronzing drops used is mixed in your foundation or skin tint, not as a bronzer after foundation! Maybe that would make those products better! 💕
Have you tried using a concealer in the same shades as your bronzer in order to get more coverage?
Happy Friday!!!
You are supposed to put it on before foundation
Use color corrector then concealer it is not gimmicky
I've never tried color correction. First of all, I have no idea what I'm doing or where I'd need it. And apart from green correcting red, I don't know what the other colors are for or how to use them
I have to use color corrector, or I'll look like I haven't slept in days. L'oreal has a primer that color corrects as well.
You color correct before the foundation
Love your nail polish! What brand & color are you wearing?
Hi, Mandy! You look lovely as always. i love that shirt on you, nice colour for you. :) i'm curious if that yellow would cover hickeys, haha. :) Thank you for sharing your thoughts, sug. ❤ Love your frugality, btw, and that you often include your 'bloopers.'
Have you tried the new Maybelline lifter liquid blush/ bronzers?
You put it on under yout concealer
Green reduces redness.
Color correction goes under your complexion products.
I have never done color correct
PLEASE post your nail color, jewelry and clothing in the description on your videos. I really love your content and am always confused why you wouldn’t provide this info, especially when you could make money off of it. Thanks :)
If color correcting is an extra & time consuming step, how come U don't think concealer is the same way, Mandy??
It's an "extra step" because it isn't something she normally does, I think. I've never used color corrector either and that's what I thought she meant.
Ise the opposite color to color correct
I need something for my dark spots HELP!!!!
💕💄
I love her videos but shes not gonna respond to anybody ,i think this is more fun for her,not a job and thats cool
I think you’re supposed to color correct BEFORE your foundation. ☺️
Have to agree with you, the foundation is too yellow for your skin tone.
All of Kosas stuff is too yellow lol
Your lights makes the color f the makeup look washed out
How many people are going to comment “use color correctors before foundation”? 😂 Don’t people read the comments and see it’s already been written 20 times in the comment section? 😂🤦🏻♀️
really you can’t tell when you don’t know how to use the product 😮
This is so annoying to me in so many ways. I cant even watch the rest. 😑
Very pretty. Why don't you speak to one of those online doctors and get some help with your Melasma? Surely it couldn't hurt. They can customize a skin fegime for you.❤✔️💯❗❓❓❓
