the color that is lighter to your skin tone

the shade that is at least one or two shade lighter to your skin tone so it can
blend into your skin seamlessly. The ultimate goal is to make the blemish spot
blend with your skin tone nicely, so there should be no traces of ugly scar.

the consistency and foundation color as well

the thick consistency if you are looking to cover the larger and tough areas
like under eye dark circles. Choose the yellow toned concealer to hide those
blue veins under your eyes. Though, if your skin tone is darker then go with
orange toned concealer. Consider your
foundation color also while applying the concealer. Even a slight variation can
create a patchy effect. Make these two
colors blend with each other perfectly for having awesome experience post
makeup. The color of concealer should be
lighter than the shade of foundation.

that has mineral pigment color rather a dye based color. This is highly
recommended if your skin type is sensitive.

but not the least; how you are applying the color is also important. Always
