HOW TO COLOR CORRECT | MELASMA HYPERPIGMENTATION | PREGNANCY MASK | CONCEALER | BRECKHOUSE

Guys, keep your panties on. Yes, i added pigmentation (all waterproof stage makeup, but that’s besides the point)...the color theory (heavily explained for all not-so-know-it-all’s out there) works. Try it. Or not. ✌🏼
Ugh, that dreaded hyper-pigmentation + pregnancy mask! So annoying! Here's how to correct + conceal it to look most naturally.
Also! I didn't even end up using the concealer brushes...I just used my favorite tool...my fingers!

It’s absolutely different when it comes to real malasma nearly impossible to cover up without looking caked up..... it’s also not always from pregnancy I never had kids and got it

[@giao2380]

I have it on my neck too. It’s terrible

[@marialuis5107]

Your tutorial is by far the best one I've seen, super natural and flawless ❤

[@debbieh9009]

Thank you for the video. I have melasma. I appreciate your efforts in mimicking melasma on your face with color to teach us what the techniques are to color correct. I read a few of the reviews that people wrote and imo they are missing the point You are teaching the technique. You do not HAVE to personally have melasma to teach how to camouflage it. I think personally it is a good idea. Some people such as I like to see the technique and not just read it, or listen to just audio. I am one that APPRECIATES your video! Thank you!♥️🙂🤗

[@FitfullyVintage]

I am so happy I found this video!! thank you so much. what I hate is the sheer amount of make up I have to layer on to hide my melasma but your skin looks so natural. I'm so excited to try this method. a million thank yous 😚

[@putridraw7780]

Vintagious ytghhhh

[@NurseViv]

This has got to be the BEST color correcting video I have seen thus far!! Thank You!!

[@grangel1975]

wow! I love how you still look so natural. I have hyperpigmentation and I wear way too much. I'll experiment and see if I can try this look. You look amazing!

[@laurenschwartz9889]

I have watched countless videos of covering up melasma. Yours is hands down, the BEST! Thank you so much!!!!

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Lauren Schwartz so so so awesome to hear! Thank you SO very much!! I am so happy this helped you :)

[@MomtoZnE]

Covering up a fake melasma condition created with makeup is NOT the same as trying to cover actual melasma. Sorry.

[@frances4814]

exactly

[@atesal]

her tip actually works for me... i do the setting spray in between, tapping, stippling, blending, etc. awesome breckhouse!

[@veronicamorales9204]

Love💜 your green eyes👁

[@pp-hw4bl]

R u sing her melasma was fake

[@beastewart2293]

Did you not hear her say she has pregnancy mask. Stop hating and use your ears to listen!

[@Lillyiann]

Thank you for sharing your routine for malasma coverage, this is the best video I've seen. i have been searching for the perfect video that would help me, and yours has the most natural coverage without the heavy contours & make up. I never needed cover up or make up, bc of my malasma I was looking for natural looking coverage. You did just that for me. Thanks a million!!!!

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Bouakhanh Greene oh thank you so very much! Glad this helped you! xo

[@patitoh02]

One of the best tutorials for melasma ever!!! I struggle with the same problem and is the first time I see a good tutorial! Thanks!!!

[@teresas8173]

The BEST video I've seen on covering melasma and hyperpygmentation ! That did not take you very long, but do you do a simpler routine on "lazy" days .

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Gail T I am so glad you loved the video! Thank you for watching :) xo

[@TanLittleAna]

loved video just wish u really had bad Melasma but love it

[@sirumaler]

Very helpful indeed, my poor sis in law had this problem and always frustrated when there is Indian wedding function ( her skin is very fair) now I know what to do.... Thanx and God bless

[@wichmanfamz]

Best melasma cover up ever!! So suitable for me and not much fuss. I've just ordered the Stila concealer palette online and the Mac brushes. Thank you!

[@naziashiekh6828]

ElMos_1one how much?

[@lindseyelizabeth2281]

she doesn't have it. she used makeup to mimic melasma which isn't the same

[@kathrynrumfello7778]

Just found this video and a million thumbs up! I've seen other color correcting videos that made me want to throw my phone! Excellent job, valid technique, you know what you're doing. Love it!

[@katodan0611]

I agree with the last comment. This is the best video I have seen on the subject. Thank you! Now let's hope the Stila pallet doesn't cause me to break out.

[@lindseyelizabeth2281]

Katrina O'Daniel she doesn't have it. she used makeup to mimic melasma which isn't the same

[@jodicaldwell4020]

the only thing that is wrong with this is many people with melasma (such as myself) the the skin that is effected with melasma has a different texture that the rest of the skin. My large patch on my forhead for example is super smooth and shiny unlike the rest of my skin, so makeup of any kind does not want to stick or stay put.

[@marlenemejias8523]

Wow amazing!! Beautiful. I have melasma right under my under eye dark circles and it's a struggle. Thanks so much.♥️

[@cherylsimmons784]

Wow, I just discovered your video on discoloration correction. Your way of fixing the problem works well. Excellent job and thank you!!

[@alexandramunoz4551]

Hello! Thank you for sharing this video, you have developed an amazing technic here❤ I like your results!

[@felicia5620]

Loved your video! Thank you for the descriptive video. I've been struggling with hyperpigmentation and this video is going to be helpful.

[@dsmpareja]

Wow! I love how you did your makeup. It looks beautiful!! - would this work for someone with dry skin? And also, you mentioned a skin routine, can you tell me the name? And what about the spray and setting powder, what are those? -- thank you again!

[@rokabvs4069]

Thank you so much for your video!!! I saw a lot of videos but no one who apply a real professional approach! I try tomorrow thx thx thx!!!!!

[@beastewart2293]

Thankyou so much. I have watched numerous Instagramers and they cake it on. You look fabulous and exolain really well x

[@ewally33]

You look beautiful. I have melasma on my cheeks and upper lip, and hate going out because my foundation doesn't work. Definitely buying Stila.

[@estherng6496]

Thank you after I see your video I have confidence doing my makeup . I’m dusky skin an Asian and having pigmentation . I tried your method of doing.🙏♥️♥️♥️

[@gabymh3536]

Excellent video! You just saved my life! I will try this ASAP. I have been buying so much makeup, spending so much money and it's all in color correction. THANK YOU!!!

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Gabriela EmeHache oh gosh, isn't that so frustrating to waste so much money? I feel ya!! Hopefully this will help! Let me know! Thank you for watching :)

[@omgwalibaji7135]

thank you very much hun x. that's a great help.

[@dreamingofnaomi]

You're a Godsend!! If you have changed up some of the products you use (since this vid is 7 years old) can you update the products and the tools you use to do this same technique?? ❤❤❤ Omgosh I am so blown away. I was never one for caked on make up and i was so sad when I developed melasma on my cheeks and upperlip. Everything I did made me look so heavy and the melasma would still be seen through layers of foundation.

[@Sha1Lmarie]

That's incredible! I have annoying melasma. Thanks for all of those tips!

[@towardsthelight4919]

Thanks for your video I will try it !….Just wondering with the under eye concealer. You’re quite young and your skin looks really good but I’m over 55 and every time I put concealer under my eye it creasesand makes my under eye wrinkles worse . Is there a way for it not to crease or look cakey ? .. also is the concealer waterproof or water resistance, and have you tried the kryolan dermacolor camouflage makeup palette make up which apparently is waterproof how would it compare ? Thanks in advance 🙏💕

[@claudiarobinson3581]

Awesome job! Im so happy i came across this ❤

[@victoriaplantillas6184]

Great video. I have the same problem and never know what make up to use to cover it up. I hate going without some coverage. But its Not enough to cover it. I'm so glad I watched your video. Now I know what to do. Thank you.

[@alexandramunoz4551]

OMG, you really nail it, thanks for sharing!

[@paulac5465]

Impressive! It looks so natural

[@sel7666]

I'm confused by your intro starting around the 15 second mark . You said you ADDED a pregnancy mask? After you said you woke up with a crater, you talked about how you added different colors to your face. Are you saying that you created a "hyperpigmented look" to cover with the Stila palette, or do you actually have hyperpigmentation? Your video is great, and I'm not dissing you in any way, but would you consider doing another video using the same Stila palette on a person who actually has hyperpigmentation since the outcome will be different and will reflect truer results?

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+S el I'd be more than happy to. Do you have hyperpigmentation? And live in SLC, UT? Or know someone who does? Send them my way!! I do have hyperpigmentation and I did have a crater, but I took MAC ProLongwear eye + lip pencils to amplify and create this. It's what makeup artists do when there isn't the actual skin type to work on. This technique works. The results are no different for creating a mask (professionally) vs having the problematic skin naturally. This technique is different than the thousands upon thousands of other techniques you will see in other videos and it does work. Having worked professionally in the industry for over 15 years now, this is something I've perfected. Now if you try this and it's not working for you, then you should either adjust the amount of color you're needing, or use a different technique :) let me know if I can help in any other way!! Thanks for watching!

[@sel7666]

+Breckhouse I will have to respectfully disagree with you. Covering up makeup with more makeup is not the same as covering up melasma/hyperpigmentation. I do have a very severe case of hyperpigmentation and with my skin tone and skin texture, it is extremely difficult to cover it effectively. I wish I were near you so I could be a model for you to try your method on! I've spent literally hundreds of dollars to try to effectively treat and cover the hyperpigmentation that is all over my face. If you happen to find someone near you with this affliction, please do an updated video of the Stila palette. Thank you!

[@azqueenb6]

+S el hi! I have melasma and in my opinion, it's pretty bad. but of course, we're our own worse critic. I, too, have spent hundreds of dollars looking for the perfect "cover" even going as far as consulting a med-spa for help and pricing lightening treatments. I have used nyx's color correcting palette but felt it was too much additional makeup. I have been using benefits erase paste for the past month and really love it. a little goes a long way. give it a try! good luck finding that perfect match for you, hang in there!

[@tsheringsonam9907]

Now I am confused whether I should try this or not...

[@dwtbb00]

I’m watching this video a month too late but glad that I’m watching it now. I have this textured dark patch that showed up on my left cheek. Honestly, it popped up once I started dermaplaining my face. I went to a dermatologist who only told me there were fine hairs trapped under the skin but was of no help. And it’s making me self conscious tbh. Fast forward to last month. I was attending an event and desperately needed tips on inexpensive items being that I no longer wear makeup daily. It’s a once in a blue moon event now. I went to a Sephora and Ulta, and I was told by supposed “makeup artists” that there was nothing I could do to cover up the dark patch. I was disappointed and overwhelmed, and ended up leaving without purchasing anything. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to go to a dermatologist or esthetician who can actually treat this situation. I don’t know if it’s hormonal, I don’t know if it’s melasma, but one day I will find out hopefully sooner than later. Thank you for this video.

[@pvt.rickert4002]

Omg thank you . I’m not pregnant but my face looks like this kinda with pimples 🥰 so happy to see what to do!

[@MrEmichan]

This is amazing! It looks fantastic. I'm wondering though, won't it look quite cakes on/ heavy irl and up close? I'm going to try an practice your technique with what I have at home (none of the same products)

[@veronikazubacova]

that looks awesome!!!! what spraying u using for the final touches?

[@TheChampion1943]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS...SO HELPFUL!!!! You're so beautiful :)

[@duchessdelarue5983]

It looks great. Can you tell me exactly what the powder foundation is?

[@eileenvillanueva3580]

I just viewed your video. ... The outcome was so amazingly great... Loved it! thank you for doing this♡

[@YouGirlMi]

This is so cool😮. It doesn't work when i color correct😢😢. You did a great job❤

[@sallyot229]

I have hyperpigmentation in on my cheek really affected my confidence. If I follow this instruction can I then use a blusher over it? Does it not wipe the coverage? Hope this is not a stupid question. Thank you so much.

[@rebeccachruszcz7294]

Amazing, I noticed you liked the stilla. Is it still your favorite?.

[@radiantsoul._.59]

The best video i have ever seen. Could you please name the product that you are using here?

[@bellarosa009]

Great video! Very informative and detailed. I have some hyper pigmentation to cover on my forehead, so I'm interested in trying this technique. Thanks!

[@sharon3286]

Your video randomly came up. Sooooo glad it did. I need that pallet. New subscriber 👍

[@jamiedumas223]

That was so very helpful, thank you. I am a bit concerned about the thickness of this palette enlarging pores and wrinkles?? What do you think?

[@SaystheTruth3]

Wow! Truly amazing job!❤

[@desireelane8338]

I just subscribed to your channel Finally a very helpful tutorial I appreciate how you took the time to explain how to fix errors I have Vitiligo & with your exact skin tone I'm definitely looking forward to your correct & concealer video I have awful heredity (also worsening from aging) extremely dark under eyes Do you have any drugstore options for achieving the flawless undetectable color correcting colors as well as concealer options? I apologize for so many questions & a long comment its just the best color correcting video I've watched on you tube Again thank you

[@momski81]

Thank for sharing your tutorials... as I have melasma too ,, great tutorial.. I will try this

[@somiersu7546]

I am thailand, you are amazing. I have melasma on over my face.I will try your technique.

[@minniediaz4145]

Really enjoyed watching this, I have melasma and I’m dark skin, I believe you said it doesn’t go well with dark skin? I’d like to try it, what do you think?

[@MadameLaMademoiselle]

Great job, you're an inspiration❤

[@butterwaffles1919]

What is this fix spray? What if I do not have that? Will these creams stick to my face?? Where can I find the list of the items u use? Thanks!

[@mindymaria871]

Looks really pretty!!! Thank you!

[@AndreaJuliet]

Great Melasma Video! There are very few on youtube. My problem is, I haven't met a cream or liquid foundation/concealer/corrector that doesn't clog my pores. I can only use certain mineral foundations. I have spent $1000s on makeup and all the excellent products for helping cover my major melasma and acne scars cause acne for me. I wish so badly I didn't have such clog prone skin because I love doing makeup and have gotten pretty good at it with all of my practice and watching of videos, but I am trying to accept that they break me out. If you know of anything that is good for acne prone skin I'm all ears. Thank you!

[@chantellegray6054]

wow thank you so much for this video as i have always had to cover mine with loads of make up which i dont like this way looks so much better

[@justme-fe2sf]

wow incredible. I am really interested in the Aveda products you suggested. Would you mind telling me what you used from them for reducing hyper pigmentation?

[@lindseyelizabeth2281]

Michail Sykianakis she doesn't have it. she used makeup to mimic melasma which isn't the same

[@AniyahsMoM]

I agree I hate the blender lol I thought I was doing something wrong but to me it makes look unnatural but to each is own 😊thanks for your video my face is a mess dealing with melasma😭

[@gatitam2875]

I just ran into this video tryingvto learn how to use the Milani Correcting pallet, I just purchased it, wish I had known about this one. Do you think it'll work half as well at least?

[@bridgettedunagan2873]

I just got hyperpigmentation. I guess this is the allotted to buy. When did yours appear and are you getting treatmentb😊

I have melasma too. But I want one product to use to conceal it and use my bb cushion. Which one do u think among all those products I can use. I have bearly time for mascara and bb cushion. But I hate when my melasma peaks out. Thank you for the video.

[@bridgetcollins4997]

Hi, I just turned 53. I have slightly hooded eyes, with some texture & discoloration. What is the best way to go about concealing the discolorations without increasing the texture on my lids. Then applying shadow. I have very light skin, if that matters. I don't want to wear dark shadows up to my brows on a daily basis. My age group is often left out on KZbin. I am subscribing. Thank you.

[@marialuis5107]

I have super oily skin, any tips to make the makeup stay mate longer?

[@stacymorris2570]

Where can you buy the skin brightening kit you’re talking about

[@bstarcon]

I'm interested in the Aveda enbrightment system but it looks like it has some products have been discontinued. I was wondering how many items were in the system and what they were so that I can look for them?

[@ytusr37837]

Use a full coverage foundation like the Huda beauty or Maybelline superstay, apply it with fingers or dense brush like sigma f-80, set it with some foundation power, and call it a day. All this correction is unnecessary. Doing what I said above will cover EVERYTHING and be super quick.

[@sallykalya9023]

What are you spraying the brushes with? Setting spray?

[@karina0679]

Can you tell me what Aveena products you used to lighten your hyperpigmentation?? I have really bad melasma :( Every time I try to color correct I end up with a gray looking face it's so frustrating

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+karina0679 I'm just now seeing this! I am so sorry! So it's the AVEDA Enbrightenment line and it's fabulous!

[@Swimmerswag15]

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Eve Linie hello! I use the MAC Cosmetics Fix+ spray. It truly is the best!! Thank you!

[@evelinegabriel4402]

+Breckhouse thanks thanks a lot! now... i want buy brushes and products and also try. i have (beside mel.) very light skin tone... i hope stila will work also for this... do you have more information about what important with brushes? (do you recommend brands? or synthetic or sable or natural.... you have a lot of experience...) also the foundations and concealer... which brands do you use? did you also try estell lauder double wear maximum? thank you a lot!

[@Nono28389]

have you tried "it"cosmetics?

[@Youwinmeta]

Fabulous

[@evelinegabriel4402]

my melasma is greyish, and also after use camouflage makeup (double wear maximum), the grey patches (2 very huge, one at each side) are here. is it the orange, that could correct this??

[@BreckhouseBeauty]

+Eve Linie it's probably more the peach that would do the trick. I guess it depends on just how dark the patches are and how dark your skin is. Remember that peach will cover more of the blue-grey and orange will cover more of a purple-grey.

[@lexyylorraine]

I hate my melasma. In the Summer especially as it darkens even with factor 50. Im afraid of hydraquinone. I had been unwell for a while after surgery & woke up one morning to find a round cheek blob & it symetrically formed from there. Above lip, both cheeks, above eyebrows & forehead. Im light olive with these darker brown marks & My face looks ill because of the uneven places its darker. I hate melasma. If anyone has a shelf product that works - let me know. Im now in hate with camourflage makeup. Its a chore.
