This our last step of covering the tattoo. I have with me a beauty blender sponge which
is one of the most amazing miracles in the makeup industry. And I have created a skin
tone foundation that matches hers. It's important when picking out a foundation for a tattoo
cover that it's also thick and creamy. The creamier the better. You don't want liquid
makeup. You want something that's very creamy and thick. So I'm going to take this sponge.
You can use any sponge but I happen to love the beauty blender. I'm going to stipple a
little bit of makeup on there. So it looks like that and then I'm just going to start
dabbing it over the tattoo concealed area. And this looks like I'm beating her up but
it actually feels really good. Doesn't it? And then I'm going to take the other side
of the brush and pull the foundation out into her skin. And then we're going to powder.
Moving my brush with powder, taping it out then powdering the area. Tattoos are actually
quite difficult to cover especially close-up. You can usually do a good job of faking it
from far away. Unless of course you have an airbrush machine, air compressor and an air
gun. You can do some pretty great things with that. And that is how you cover a tattoo.
