By now, you've likely seen how magical color-correcting [1] can be when it comes to concealing dark circles [2] or brightening sallow skin. But Instagram user rebellemakeup [3] demonstrated the technique's true versatility by showing how it can hide something a little more substantial: a tattoo.
In just a few short seconds, we watch as she uses a creamy orange color-corrector to hide the black ink. The shade she picked makes sense — this warm hue is very effective at canceling out blue and purple tones, which are visible in the midnight text (learn more about choosing the right color-corrector here [4]). She goes on to cover it with concealer, foundation, and several layers of powder.
Though this seems like a bit of an arduous process, the results are absolutely flawless. It's worth trying if you need to hide that tiny tat [5] before going to your grandma's birthday party! View how it works below.
