You can get palettes with a wider range of colours in but this one is simple, and does the trick. Here's what you need to know:
Start with clean skin. Wash last nights cack off and start again, you'll thank yourself for it, then apply your choice of primer. For this I used the primer included in the palette which glides on like a dream!

Apply the blue shade to any areas of redness. For me, this is my cheeks, next to my nostrils and around the bottom of my mouth. You can also apply a little to blemishes before concealer to perfectly hide them away!
Once this is done you can use a damp Beauty Blender to blend it into your skin. Battle those blemishes guuuurl! I like to set it at this point, so even after putting my usual base on top it stays. The swatches I took from this palette in my review stayed on my arm for a day afterwards and tinted the skin (not in a blindingly obvious way) which was super impressive!
You can then apply concealer and blend which will help hold it all together, and really erase those unwanted skin tones.

Once this is done you can move on to your regular base make-up if you like. I almost didn't as I didn't want heavy make-up this day, so instead used a light foundation and setting powder with a little bronze and highlight. I swear by colour correcting at the moment. Any #fotd just isn't complete without it!
Et fini. So that's how I do my everyday colour correct. Don't you think it makes a difference? Who'd have thought that putting bright blue on your skin would actually make your skin look closer to flawless. If you have any other ways of colour correcting or can recommend a wider palette then let me know!
