Why Your Concealer Always Creases (and How to Stop It)

Hey, Glaminai here — if your concealer melts, separates, or sinks into fine lines by noon, it’s not your fault. You’re just skipping a few key steps in the eye prep equation.

🩵 The Problem

The under-eye is thin, textured, and constantly moving. A thick formula + dry skin + no set = creases guaranteed.

🔍 Why It Happens

• Dryness: dehydration makes the product cling to texture.

• Overapplication: too much = folds.

• Wrong texture: matte formulas exaggerate lines on dry skin.

⚡ Quick Fix: Prep, Apply, Set Smart

1. Prep:
   Apply a light eye cream 10 minutes before concealer — hydration fills lines naturally.
   Try: The Ordinary Caffeine Solution or e.l.f. Holy Hydration Eye Cream.

2. Apply:
   Use one dot of concealer per eye. Tap gently with your ring finger or sponge.
   Wait 30 seconds before blending to let it thicken slightly (better grip).

3. Set:
   Press a micro-fine powder (like Huda Easy Bake or One/Size Ultra Blur) with a puff, not a brush. Lock it — don’t bake it.

✨ Glaminai Recommends:
Kosas Revealer + Rare Beauty Brightener = hydrated, crease-free combo.

🚫 Mistakes to Avoid

• Skipping prep.

• Using full-coverage matte formulas on dry skin.

• Sweeping powder (it moves the base).
