Default Is it better to put concealer on with a concealer brush? (instead of fingers)?

I just got this new concealer Invisible Touch by mark. I think I like it but seems that by the time i blend it (w/ finger) its totally gone. Would a concealer brush help?
Thanks!
How often should you clean makeup brushes?

yes, most definitely. a concealer brush is specifically designed to help with the application and blending of concealer. the natural oils of your fingers melts makeup, and before you know it, the makeup disappears. invest in a good set of brushes, since better brushes equals better result.

yeah it is better to put concealer on with a brush because if you put it on with your fingers your face will get the grease from you hands and clog your pores.

Definitely use a brush, it blends well but it does not rub the concealer off like your finger does.

I always used to just use my finger and pat the concealer down, but it would not blend well, especially on blemishes. And when covering up under-eye circles the concealer would just disappear.

Then I bought a brush and it has worked wonders! Concealer blends well over blemishes, but still covers them. And it really helps in covering under-eye circles! Everything goes on a lot easier and smoother. Plus, they're pretty cheap, only a few bucks. Its worth the money, for sure!

I use a brush & just remember to apply with a light touch. Fingers carry germs & oils. Clean your brush regularly!

A brush would help with coverage but if you want the product to last you might want to invest in a translucent powder like Cornsilk or something similar.

Try using your ring finger and just patting in on... I don't like brushes around the eye area.

I do what MamaMia does. Using the ring finger because it applies the least amount of pressure. And you should always pat it on, you'll notice a major difference. The skin under your eye is SO delicate, and patting it doesn't rub it around and rub some off.
I'm also a mark rep! Hope you're liking the Invisible Touch concealer

use a brush to apply and then lightly pat with your finger to even it out smoothly
