Looking for a good concealer that will hide marks and small scars on face?

Vichy dermablend - there's a concealer and foundation, excellent for covering scars and marks etc.

Kevyn aucoin sensual skin. Comes in a little pot. It’s so pigmented you only need the tiniest bit. This plus the fact it has jojoba oil in means it doesn’t go chalky or patchy and blends flawlessly. Great range of shades so you’ll get a perfect match. Can also be used mixed with moisturiser to give a tinted moisturiser effect.

Lasts ages too. Not cheap but it provides excellent coverage. (I’m acne prone and suffer from red scars that last months!)

Max factor panstick had heavy coverage without feeling cakey.

Cheap but good - collection lasting perfection, revolution concealer and define.

Tarte shape tape is good, as is Nars radiance creamy concealer.

How visible are the marks OP, what kind? If theres reddening try layering a green tinted concealer to neutralise before you go in with one of the above. Vichy dermablend is good if it's a very visible mark, it even covers tattoos (with enough on) - rubbish shade range if you're pale though and it's not natural looking. Dermacol stage makeup will cover anything and has a good shade range, but again- you wouldn't want it all over your face, it's very thick. Great for marks though!

Very helpful ty! I had sort of decided on the dermablend but I am very pale, almost transparent so that probably won't do. It's a mix of dark pigmentation and a couple of scars where I've had lesions removed. All tiny spots and not as dramatic as it sounds - but I'm finding it hard to get a natural lookin cover.

Another vote for Max Factor panstick

It's an oldie but goldie. Nothing else covers like it.

I used to always use panstick and liked it - it's a good price so I can just get it and try it :) TY.
