Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Complexion Perfector

I use this mostly around my nose and on a few old acne marks. It lets me cover exactly what I want without putting foundation over my entire face.

This is perfect for the mornings when I notice one random blemish right before leaving for work. A little product takes down the redness and blends easily into the rest of my makeup.

My under-eyes are naturally darker near the inner corners, so that's where I concentrate this. It makes me look more awake without needing a thick layer of concealer.

I have some sun spots along my cheeks that still show through lighter foundations. I tap this over them afterward and they become much less noticeable.

I've been wearing less makeup lately, and this works really well with that kind of routine. I spot conceal, add cream blush and mascara, and leave the rest of my skin alone.

The precision is what sold me. I can cover a tiny mark without ending up with a big patch of concealer around it.

I keep this in my purse because it's great for quick touch-ups. If some redness starts showing around my nose later in the day, I can fix it without redoing my base.

I had a breakout leave behind several dark marks on my chin, and this has been really useful while they gradually fade. It gives me targeted coverage without making that whole area look heavy.

At 47, I don't want to pile concealer under my eyes anymore. Using a small amount only where I actually have darkness looks much more natural on me.

I like using this after tinted moisturizer. The tinted moisturizer evens out most of my complexion, then I go back with this anywhere that still needs a little extra help.

I originally bought this thinking it would just be another concealer, but I use it differently than my regular one. It's become my detail product for little spots, redness, and areas that need more coverage after the rest of my makeup is finished.

I wore this instead of foundation for a casual weekend brunch and loved the result. My skin looked like my skin, just with the little imperfections toned down.

It took me a couple tries to figure out how little product I actually needed. Once I stopped overapplying, it blended much more seamlessly.

I have freckles that I actually like and don't want to cover. This gives me the option to conceal a blemish or discoloration while leaving everything else visible.

This came in handy after a long flight when my face looked tired and uneven. I touched up under my eyes and around my nose, added some blush, and looked much more put together.

Most days my complexion is pretty clear except for one or two areas, so a full-coverage foundation feels unnecessary. This gives me a much quicker solution.

I use a fingertip to gently tap it over blemishes and then soften the edges. It blends into my base nicely without drawing more attention to the spot I'm trying to cover.

My makeup tends to wear away first around my chin because I'm constantly touching my face. This is easy to pull out in the afternoon and add coverage back exactly where I need it.

My skin gets red around my nostrils, especially when the weather turns cold. A few small touches of this make the redness much less obvious.
