Transcript:How to Hide Acne Scars

Hi. My name is Rebecca Garcia. I'm a New York and Paris based makeup artist here for About.com. I'm about to show you how to camouflage your acne scarring.

What You Need to Hide Acne Scars

When hiding acne scarring you'll need a concealer brush, a powder brush, your concealer and translucent powder.

Start with Concealer

To camouflage acne scarring you'll need to start with the small concealer brush and try to match up the concealer as close to your skin tone as possible. We're going to use this medium tone here.

Just dab a little bit on your brush here. And we're just going to dab into the blemishes. You can blend it with your finger a little bit. Dab it to blend it.

And she's pretty near flawless, so we don't have a whole lot of work to do here.

Add Powder to Fully Hide Acne Scars

Now, you want to take your large powder brush, dab it into the powder, the translucent powder, swirl the brush around and then we're going to go over the concealer with a little bit of powder. And there you go. Flawless skin.
