If there’s one makeup product that I truly cannot live without, my so-called desert island product, it will have to be a concealer. Concealer to me is like a magic eraser, the answer to all my beauty woes, something that can transform your face from fail to fabulous within a matter of seconds. On days that I don’t want to wear too much makeup, or want to skip foundation altogether, a good concealer is a quick and easy passage to a beautiful flawless skin. Today I’m giving you my top picks, my ultimate holy grail concealers that are definitely worthwhile checking out.
MAC Pro-longwear concealer is my ultimate makeup saviour on days that I don’t want to be bothered with foundation. To me it’s a hybrid between a full coverage foundation and a concealer. The coverage is full but it has a really nice creamy texture, and does not leave the skin looking dry or cakey. It can be used everywhere you need, under eyes and any areas on your face. I often double this up as a light foundation, either when I travel and don’t want to carry big foundation bottle with, or over the weekends when I want a fuss free makeup.
Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer is a concealer that trumps all ‘good concealers’, in my honest opinion. Imagine all the amazing concealers that you’ve heard about or been using and loving for quite some time all combined together in one single product. Urban Decay naked skin concealer has a great coverage akin to my all time favourites; Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer and Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer, but the texture is not as thick nor as drying. It has a beautiful, creamy moisturising consistency compatible to my beloved Origins Plantscription Anti-Ageing concealer, but it offers more coverage. This is an amazing all-round concealer that will beat any of your favourite concealers out there.
Bobbi Brown Corrector is an under-eye concealer that all panda-eyes girls (me included) ‘need’. It really ‘corrects’ the dull, tired-looking, dark circles under your eyes and immediately waken and brighten them. On mornings that I need an extra help, when I didn’t get enough sleep the night before, I would pad the corrector under my eyes, apply concealer on top and I’m literally restored to a well-rested, bright eyed human being once again.
Have you tried any of these concealers? Or do you have any other favourites?
