Concealer is just meant for a particular area on your face that you want to hide (e.g. a pimple) while foundation is a base for your whole face.

same answer as others have said: concealer is for under your eyes. foundation is for the rest of the face. since concealer is a shade lighter than your skin tone, it would look weird on the rest of the face. there are different consistancies of foundation for different purposes...tinted moisturizer is really sheer, liquid foundation is for general evening out the skin tone and covering minor imperfections, cream and stick foundations are thick and offer heavy coverage for acne, birthmarks, scars, etc.

You use concealer just on the problematic part of your skin, like when you want to hide the acne. You apply foundation on your whole face....
There are also expert concealer techniques which can be used for visual illusions, like making your nose smaller and such.

Yes. They both work the same way however foundation is designed to take on other makeup products where as concealer is more of a "fast & final" method.

Concealor is a thicker more concentrated product not meant to be used on the entire face partially becuase of its thickness. Its used for targeting small isssues, perhaps to cover up a few pimples or undereye circles, make sure you choose the right formula for your issue. Foundation is for all over the face and neck and comes in liquid and powder forms. Again, make sure you choose the right formula for your skin type.

Concealer is for spot problems such as under the eyes & blemishes. foundation goes on your entire face & is the 1st step towards makeup application.

foundation is used for the whole entire face and concealer is only used for certain spots on the face.

Foundation evens out your skin tone and enhances your beauty. Concealer covers up zits, freckles, acne scars, & dark circles under eyes.

yes there is a difference.....foundation is for your entire face and is meant to cover up very minor flaws and enhance the glow on your face, while concealer is only meant for one spot such as a pimple or a scar....
