Make-up Artist Tips for Covering Spider Veins


Perhaps the date for cosmetic repair for your spider veins is too far away and you want to know what you can do immediately to cover them up. An article over at Beauty iVillage takes a look at some of the tips used by top make-up artists to conceal the appearance of spider veins. Different techniques are used on the face and legs but the effect is the same; the spider veins virtually disappear so that you can go out in the evening looking like a celebrity.

For your face, the article says that you’ll want to use a basic make-up concealer to hide the problem area. Apply the concealer evenly and pay attention to what you’re doing to get the best look. For your legs, the process is similar but you’ll want to make extra sure that you get the right color because that’s the key to making your legs look natural as you hid the spider veins. The major difference between face and legs is that you’ll want to use a dry, powder-based product on your face and a creamy lotion-like product on your legs.

Covering spider veins with make-up is obviously only a temporary solution. You’ll want to look in to vein treatment options for more permanent removal or reduction of spider veins. But there’s no reason that you need to go around looking bad in the meantime.

  • 3 tsp Thai 7- spice (we used Schwartz)
  • very large knob root ginger (about 100g), peeled and finely chopped or grated
  • 1 red chilli , deseeded and finely chopped
  • 400g can chickpeas , drained and rinsed
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes
  • 4 white fish fillets, approx 175g each
  • large handful coriander leaves, coarsely chopped

Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil in a deep, ovenproof frying pan, tip in the 7-spice and sizzle for a moment. Add the ginger and chilli, give it a stir, then add the chickpeas, stirring to coat them with the spices. Pour in the tomatoes, season to taste and bring to the boil.
