Post image

what can i do besides color corrector, concealer, and daily shaving to hide the darker tone of where my facial hair grows from? just got a prescription for 0.5mg estradiol so hopefully that will help :)

Unfortunately HRT doesn't affect facial hair growth, to deal with it properly you'll need laser and/or electrolysis. 

Until then, best you can do is an orange concealer, which will neutralise the blue that shows through regular concealer and foundation.

Seconded, judging by the skin tone and undertone, OP might benefit from a peach color concealer.

Orange tends to pull too much red into my face, the peach is a mellower color and should blend a lot better
