What Tattoo? Using Makeup To Hide Things From Your Parents

Ever watch a movie like Mr & Mrs Smith and wonder where her tattoos go?  Honestly.  One minute she's walking down the red carpet with 167 ink spots - just counting the ones you can see - and the next minute, poof!  She shows up on screen with nothing.


Not that you're sitting around obsessing over it.  Or are about to head home for the holiday and still can't decide how to broach your new Celtic cross tat with grandma. 

Here's the secret: CoverFx Total Coverage Cream Foundation.  Creamy enough to go on whatever body part, but thick enough to grab hold and stay put.  All through dinner.  All through stewing and sweating every time grandma looks at your wrist. And all through wiping your brow with a big, "Phew!" when your dad finally drives her home.

Jenny,

Bravo, that is in fact the exact product used in that film and on so many others who want to hide their ink. The secret to perfect coverage is sheer layers. The cream is so thick, that if you lay down heavy coverage right away, it will never look like skin. Three steps to perfect (and long lasting) coverage.

1. Prep the area with Cover FX Skin Prep. The silicone in this product will allow the cream to glide easily over the skin.
2. Apply one sheer layer of the Cover FX foundation in your perfect shade.
3. Set the sheer layer with Cover FX Setting FX. The powder is MICA based, so you will be able to go in with a second layer (or third) without it streaking or grabbing.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the tattoo has vanished into your skin.

Easy and amazing.
