Concealer isn't designed to be used all over the face, that is what foundation is for! Concealer is designed to be more pigmented with fuller coverage to cover blemishes/dark circles! Hope I helped!! ❤

I mean you could if you wanted to, but keep in mind it has a much thicker consistency than foundation. I would just stick to using foundation and going over any trouble areas with concealer. :)

One of my favorite makeup artist on YouTube actually uses two MAC concealers in place of foundation. I was stunned by the results honestly. Now, she uses two concealers as the middle of her face is lighter then the outside of her face, but I'm positive the method could work just as well with one color.

Buuuut if you're looking for something for coverage during the summer I do recommend BB cream as its a lot lighter then foundation and concealer and won't be as heavy on the face. Because you have olive skin you can probably get away with some of the awesome Asian brands just fine.

Iheartmakeup92 on YouTube used MAC pro longwear concealer as foundation due to bad acne, which worked amazingly but it would be very heavy!

Yes, you could. It would be expensive though, & heavy on your face. But you can do it :)

Well it's not meant to use it as a foundation. But if you have a thin concealer it might work. Before I used to use the macs moisture concealer in place of foundation, only because I didn't use it all over and it's of a thin consistency.

You can mix a concealer with a little bit of moisturizer if you want to use it for your full face :) It feels a lot lighter but has the same effect
