Etymology

The word 'concealer' has its roots in the verb 'conceal', which comes from the Latin 'concelare', meaning 'to hide, keep secret'. The prefix 'con-' signifies 'together or completely', and 'celare' means 'to hide'. The term started to appear in English in the early 20th century primarily within the context of cosmetics. As makeup evolved and the market for beauty products expanded, the term became more specific to products designed to cover blemishes and imperfections. Today, concealers come in various formulations, shades, and types tailored for different skin types and concerns, reflecting a broader understanding of beauty and skincare.
