Concealer

By Mariella 4 years ago.

I nearly fainted when I found this at Marshall's for under $40 (Cdn) and grabbed it immediately. I've had this for almost a year now and don't use it all that often. I had such high hopes, having read about how excellent this concealer is but sadly, it's not as wonderful as I was expecting. If I'm not careful, this can take on a dry, scaly look after a few hours and in spite of all the claims, this still does settle into fine lines. It's easy enough to press the product back into place but considering what this retails for ($80 or more), I really was expecting perfection.

BEST CONCEALER EVER—but, I’m sure you’ve already heard this. I have light-medium skin with cool, pink undertones and light to moderate acne (almost always have one or two breakouts I’m trying to cover, along with persistent rosacea). I’ve tried so many different concealers and foundations, but this product is absolutely #1 on my very short, “swear by it” beauty essentials list. I typically just wear the concealer by itself (or with foundation powder) to the office, gym, grocery store, etc. However, I will apply my foundation (Cle de Peau Radiant Cream Foundation BF20) over the concealer to create a more complete look for going out on weekend nights, formal events, etc. Unfortunately, you do have to pay a steep price for flawless coverage—however, a little goes a long way, so you shouldn’t be buying a new $80 tube that often. Pros: - Buildable, yet can easily be worn alone - Medium/high coverage without looking - Creamy, blendable and lightweight formula - Compact tube, perfect for traveling and small purses - All-day wear Cons: - Price
