Makeup Artist Experts Linda Seidel is even
more of a renegade. She has come up with Natural Cover, a
foundation and concealer all in one, that is matched to the
skin tone and applied allover the face. 'I like the undereye
area to look the same color as the rest of the face. An incorrect
lighter shade makes bags look puffier and dark circles look
gray.'
I'm getting married and plan to do my own
makeup Linda Seidel, creator of Natural Cover foundation/
concealer, recommends starting with a long-lasting waterproof
foundation. Match the shade to your neck and blend it well
below your jaw line. Finish with pressed or loose powder and
you'll have the perfect canvas for the rest of your makeup.
The right concealer can hide almost any flaw.
One general rule: Match your skin tone as closely as possible.
A shade that's too light will draw attention to the area you're
trying to cover. Corrective makeup artist Linda Seidel, who
chooses the formulation she uses as carefully as the color,
gives us some face-saving tips for masking the top three problems:
Undereye Circles, Blemishes, and SunDamage.
Those choosing
to bypass surgery can still go barelegged, thanks to camouflaging
makeup. Linda Seidel boasts that she can match anyskin tone
with her Natural Cover. 'The idea is not to cover the whole
leg but to have a good enough color match to mask just the
problem area. Imperfections like spider veins can be devastating
to women, even if they're small. We tend to fixate on flaws.'
Is This
the Era of Understanding or Greater Confusion? Linda Seidel
had the great and good fortune of working with models who
openly complained about the way their makeup did not always
look flattering due to poor color selection and formulation.
She took this information and went into the lab to develop
Natural Cover, a line of professional quality foundation that
matches all skin tones and wears beautifully while feeling
light on the skin.
Whether you have dark undereye circles or a birthmark, Natural
Cover enables you to create that flawless complexion you've
always desired. A revolutionary foundation/concealer all in
one, Natural Cover's opaque formula conceals all types of
skin discolorations with ease while perfectly matching your
skin tone. It's completely waterproof and one application
in the morning lasts all day. Equally important, Natural Cover
looks and feels so natural. it performs like a second skin.

Applied properly, it camouflages everything from blemishes to
birthmarks, broken capillaries to sallow skin. Still, it's hard
to cover a blemish and have it stay hidden all day, says makeup
artist Linda Seidel, who says her Natural Cover concealer stays
on until you take it off. 'I received a letter from a customer
who got chicken pox three days before her wedding. Her bridesmaid
gave her Natural Cover, and she went through with the ceremony
--- you couldn't see anything wrong.'
Vanishing Acts For Varicose Veins ... If you have only a few visible
veins, all you need to make them 'disappear' is a waterproof concealer
in a shade that perfectly matches your skin tone, says Linda Seidel,
a Baltimore makeup artist and creator of Natural Cover Cosmetics.
For best results, apply the concealer with a dry makeup sponge,
then set with powder.
