TikkToker Mikayla Nogueira relies on the “sticky method” to cover her acne under makeup.

Instead of caking on layer after layer, Massachusetts-based makeup artist and TikTokerMikayla Nogueirahas the perfect solution.
I call it the sticky method because were about to get real sticky, Nogueira saysin a recent video.
Were gonna make these [pimples] look like they dont even exist.

Im going to use theGlow Recipe Plum Plump Hyaluronic Serum.

Next, Nogueira preps her skin with thee.l.f.
Power Grip Primer($10).
This is a very sticky grippingprimerthat grips makeup to the skin, she says on TikTok.
There are tons and tons of gripping primers out there but the e.l.f.
one is affordable and one of the best.
Cover blemishes with a matte concealer
Nogueira then uses a matte concealer to spot cover.
Her go-to is theNars Soft Matte Complete Concealer($30).
I highly recommend using aconcealer brush, she says in the video.

Before you do anything else, its absolutely critical that you let your concealer dry.
Give it two to five minutes to dry completely.
That dry downtime is super important with the sticky method.
I even recommend using a fan if you have one.
At no point in the process do we blend the concealer.
Apply your go-to medium-to-full-coverage foundation
Now its time to apply foundation, says Nogueira.
Apply your foundation as usuala medium to full coverage is probably best with this method.
Most importantly, though?
Dont let acne dull your shine, says Nogueira.
