If you want to find out how to cover up pimples, learning how to effectively use a concealer is a great place to start. Murad Acne Treatment Concealer is a really great product to try as it does so much more than just a disguise spots! This ‘Allure Best of Beauty Award’ winner is specially formulated to clear blemishes, and prevent further pimple breakouts.
The Murad acne concealer is oil-free and contains powerful ingredients such as Salicylic Acid (to dry out the pimple), Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Green Tea.
It doesn’t contain any sulfates, synthetic fragrances, petrochemicals, phthalates, triclosan or GMOs, making it ideal for very sensitive skin.
This product is suitable for all skin types. It is available in Light, Medium and Dark so it works for almost all complexions. Because it is oil free, it is suitable for very oily skin – it won’t block the pores and make pimples even worse.
How to use Murad to Conceal Pimples
- Wash your face with warm water and pat it dry with a clean, soft face cloth.
- Apply the concealer with clean fingertips. Apply a very small amount of the product with the tips of your fingers.
- Pat a thin layer of the product on the affected area of your skin (don’t rub!).
- Continue until the blemish is concealed. Do this once or twice each day, as required.

[easyazon-image-link asin=”B0054Y12E0″ alt=”Murad Acne Treatment Concealer – Dar, 0.09 oz” src=”http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41cjmjnFmJL.jpg” align=”right” width=”142″ height=”250″]This product gets great reviews from most people who try it out. It does appear to treat blemishes very well, by drying out pimples and then concealing any inflammation or redness of the skin.
Many concealing treatment products tend to either look caked on or else flake off within a couple of hours. This does not seem to be the case with this Murad product. Many users are pleased to report that it stays on all day, providing excellent coverage without looking obvious. If you do need to reapply it, the product is small and lightweight enough to be popped in your purse, giving you the peace of mind that your blemishes will be concealed all day (or night). Users report that the stick lasts a very long time.
Most reviewers agree that it is more suitable for occasional breakouts and minor blemishes than extensive acne. If you do suffer from severe acne, you would be better to go for a cream concealer than a stick type such as this one.

Unless you have serious acne and need something stronger than Murad Acne Treatment Concealer, overall, this product comes highly rated as a method for covering and concealing acne pimples. It is good value for money and does exactly what it claims to do: treats existing blemishes, covers pimples effectively and helps to prevent future pimple breakouts.
