How to Cover Up Peach Fuzz or Stubble With Makeup, According to the Pros
May 10, 2021
Think Foundation, Not Concealer
If you plan to cover up your peach fuzz or stubble, NYC-based makeup artist Jonet Williamson recommends staying away from concealer. “Always use foundation because if the consistency is too thick, it’s going to get caught in the hairs,” she says. Opt for a long-wearing formula like the Maybelline New York Super Stay Full Coverage Foundation, which offers full yet breathable coverage.
When in Doubt, Color Correct
“Most stubble has a blue undertone,” says freelance makeup artist Kasey Spickard. “With that in mind, you will want to color correct with a peach or orange color corrector.” Tap an orange concealer like the Maybelline New York FaceStudio Master Camo Color Correcting Pen in Apricot over the stubble and blend it out. Lightly set this with a powder, then apply your full-coverage foundation overtop. “I like to apply lighter shades underneath my eyes, bringing it down towards the sides of the nose, around the mouth and chin and jawline,” LRN Beauty makeup artist Frankie Padron says. “When you use different shades on your skin, it adds dimension.”
If you prefer to shave off your peach fuzz, Spickard recommends dermaplaning. “I love the Dermaflash device to remove peach fuzz because it leaves your skin super smooth.”
