Here's the thing about concealer palettes: They look really intimidating. I mean, you're just getting the hang of your everyday concealer, so how the hell could you handle a multi-shade kit, right? Right?! Wrong. Although it seems like only a professional makeup artist would need an entire palette, the reality is that your face could too.

Seasonal skin-tone changes, breakouts, under-eye circles, rosacea, and discoloration all require different coverage and color approaches, so one concealer does not fit all. Instead, try one of these easy-to-use palettes, below, to get all the options you need for way less than it would cost you to buy four shades of your fancy concealer.

Yes, these bizarre shades actually do belong on your face. This palette isn't intended to matchyour skin tone but rather to cancel outdiscoloration from sallowness, redness, and dullness before applying your foundation. For sallow, yellow skin, brush on a sheer layer of lavender. For redness and zits, use the green, and for dullness, the peach. Then, apply yourfoundation for a completely natural, even finish.

Each palette contains 16 mixable, blendable shades, and a teeny, tiny bit of the full-coverage formula goes the longest way.
