This is concealer on steroids - it's thick, it's full coverage, it's long lasting.
If you use a concealer out of habit, or for minimal blemishes, this might be too much for you. But for those of us with 'proper' concealing needs this is a great product.
It's easy to apply and blend and I found it worked well over or under foundation. The shades have a lot of matching leeway, so I think most people could get away with ordering online, as we essentially did for the trial team.
This lasts the day, it's staying power is quite incredible. It doesn't cake or flake and doesn't pill under foundation.
Highly recommend!
I really loved trialling this product - thank you so much! My first impressions when opening the product were that the applicator was pretty cool. It is a wee soft curved paddle, which feels really nice when applying the product, particularly under the eyes.
The texture of this product is a bit runnier than Im used too, as I have been using a thicker creamy concealer. I actually really liked this product, as I found that the thinner texture did not mean the coverage was any less - and it was alot easier for me to blend than the thicker ones. When blended, I was really surprised by how much it did look like a second skin. I probably selected a shade too light, but it actually worked really well to brighten up areas of my face that needed it. It was great on the sides of my nose, which get a bit red in the colder months.
In terms of how long it lasts, I was impressed. This product stayed in place all day, even with me taking my mask off and on regulalry. The only reason I marked this 4/5 for using this product again and doing what it said it would was due to the lighter shade. This meant it was perfect for under eye darkness and my red nose, but it wasnt as good for covering a small spot. I would need a darker shade for this otherwise it drew attention to it by being a bit lighter. I would recommend this 100% if it is the correct shade for what you want to use it for. I will probably buy a darker shade, as I really like how the formulation feels and blends.
