I have to confess to owning and liking the Bobbi Brown concealer, but I also must warn you about that Nars, which I also own. I was obviously feeling rebellious that day.
CATRICE CONCEALER MATCH FOR NARS CUSTARD SKIN
I have the By Terry Touche Veloutee, but can only use it when I’m super tan as for some reason I bought it in the darkest shade? All the rest of my skin products say things like “porcelain” on them. I also love the Clinique’s Airbrush Concealer, recommended by (surprise) Lisa Eldridge, it doesn’t offer a lot in the concealing department, but as a shimmer-free brightener, I love it. I love the actual product though, peach toned for some correction, very light texture and never creases. I have to store it with the cap facing up or it vomits enough concealer onto the back of my hand that one day i just said “fuck it, i’ll use it as foundation today”. it comes in a sooper stoopid leaky tube which is a tragedy. My favourite currently is the Armani Maestro. Such a good read! Who doesn’t love to talk about concealers? (Actually it turns out that 0 of my coworkers will chat concealer with me…) Maybelline Instant Age Rewind – Light Pale (that sponge applicator is… heinous)ĭesperate for other suggestions, leave them in the comments pretty please and thank you! The only reason this palette is still in my possession is because it can come in handy when working on either extreme pale or deep skintones (a rarity and as such, will be blogsaled). Wins first place for cult product that doesn’t live up the hype! Go Bobbi! I harbour a strong aversion to this formulation: sticky, heavy and prone to creasing even when set with a powder. Bobbi Brown Correctors and Concealers (University Palette) On occasion I’ll use it alone for illumination where coverage isn’t paramount but again, not a concealer by definition. I know, I know… Not an undereye concealer per se, Touche Eclat provides beams of light reflection with negligible coverage. Shade Orionis has a strong peach undertone so ideal for combating dark circles (while Alula is deeper and leans yellow) but my only gripe is the minimal coverage and hence, reserved for boring day-to-day looks. I actually quite like this formula: light in consistency, no crepe-paper-effect and is kind to dryness. Rouge Bunny Rouge Luminous Skin Wand – Alula & Orionis Worst design flaw in makeup history, dispenses enough product for 23 faces.Įdited to add: I’ve come to like Prolongwear for another purpose, read about it here. I’ve since tweaked application, the Real Techniques Domed Shadow Brush appears to be the best tool when buffing on the smallest amount of product the result is no longer repulsive but I’m less than blown away?Īlso.
I downright hated it on first application, cakey and crepey. Eventually the twinkle grated on my patience and I was once caught a glimmer in a store-front reflection.
At first, it was only a minor irk – I enjoyed the feather light texture, the impressive coverage and the brightening effect (it can veer into Kim K highlight, practice restraint). Armani Precision Retouch Concealer – 3Īnother former favourite, I will still reach for this one for night events but I can no longer tolerate it during the day due the discernible shimmer. I’m not sure if this particular tube is nearing its demise but wtfbbq? Why an ashy Sahara under my eyes? Straight into the bin, still deliberating repurchase. This is most perplexing as Touche Veloutee made it into my 2012 favourites! Something about amazeballs coverage and illumination sans creasing.
It’s not as though I’m asking for a lot: My under-eye circles are moderate at worst, I don’t experience dryness around my eyes and I’ve not yet received my share of fine lines (touch wood… and recite countless immature rhymes to repel the jinx).īy Terry Touche Veloutee Concealer – Cream How is it possible to own such a large array of possibilities and yet still be unsatisfied? This post is basically a stream-of-consciousness-babble regarding my journey to find the perfect under eye concealer.
