I've always wondered what models and actresses and the like use on their skin to cover up discolarations and strecth marks and other skin issues? Their skin always looks perfect but underneath it really isn't - what do they use?

Part of their appearance comes from actually air-brushing their make-up. The make-up artists custom blend a liquid color and air brush the foundation (sometimes body specific foundation) onto their entire body to hide their flaws.

After the photos are taken if they don't feel like the model is flawless enough they will photo-shop the image, sometimes evening out the skin tone, removing wrinkles, blemishes etc.

Normally foundation is used as a make up base for the face and will also use concealers on the face or other parts of the body to cover up discolorations or other skin issues. Concealers comes in different shades so that it would suit different skin tones.

Along with airbrushing, the other possibility is theatrical makeup. This is much more opaque than normal makeup, and can be used to cover/conceal major skin blemishes.

I'm a photographer part time and a hairstylist full time, usually he photos are touched up and TV airbrushing so what you see is not reality.

Best foundation for hiding scars and pimples I've ever used is DermaBlend. It makes you look flawless :)
