I'd never walk out of my house without concealer on," says makeup artist Bobbi Brown—this from a woman who champions natural beauty and has three sons and a cosmetics company to run. However time-crunched you are, and whatever it is you're dying to erase—exhausted panda eyes, a pimple smack-dab in the middle of your forehead, pesky dark spots—salvation is at hand.

First, invest in a great formula, taking the time to test it at the store, since determining the right shade is crucial. Second, pause long enough to try the following simple application tips. "Think of it as me time, even if it's only a second," says makeup artist and mom of two Brigitte Reiss-Andersen. "It'll make you feel better about yourself." Then bask in the rested-looking results. "That's the best thing about concealer," Brown says. "It makes you look less tired."
