LA Girl HD Pro Concealer

I've got three shade of this, which is easy to do considering they're so cheap! I get mine from the dollar store on K Rd, and I make sure to get a light shade for highlighting, a neutral shade for covering blemishes and a very dark shade for contouring.

They staying power of these is great and the light shade I use is one of my favourites for under-eye concealing.

This colour range is especially good for my dark skinned girls who tend to get let down by New Zealands lack of options.

The other geat thing about these is that they don't cake or cling to dry patches so for mature skin its terrific!

Well every youtube beauty guru I'm subscribed to had been raving about this for the past 6mths+ so I had to give it a go. I was disappointed by the poor shade range, I am quite fair and its hard to find a concealer that I can use under my eyes for a light brightening effect. I bought this in the lightest shade available and it was still on the darker side. I can use under my eyes for dark circles but definitely not highlighting. It has a little built in brush to apply it with which I wish it was a doe foot applicator I find you don't waste as much product with a doe foot. I use a beauty blender to blend the product out and it works well I find it blends well with decent coverage but not full coverage. I set my under eye with bare minerals well rested which brightens a bit but I always find that this concealer creases on me I am still yet to find one that doesn't. I've tried using different things to blend it with and different setting powders but it still doesn't seem to help. If they had a lighter shade range I would probably give it a go but once I've used up what I've got I won't repurchase.

I decided to buy this after having tried and liking a few LA girl products. At such a low cost I thought it couldn't hurt. I really wanted to try a cream contour so I thought using one of these concealers might do the trick.

I am super fair so I was a wee bit cautious on what colour to pick but again because of the price I knew if I got it wrong it wasn't the end of the world. I picked the shade Almond.

Packaging wise this is a long clear tube with a long black screw top lid. This unscrews to reveal a inbulit brush top. You squeeze the tube and the product will pop up through the brush.

I was pretty cautious when I first squeezed this as I know these types of applicators can produce a lot more product than you bargain for. I had to squeeze quite firmly but very slowly. It produced some concealer quite slowly but not very evenly. The concealer came out the side of this brush rather than out the top. I swatched this on my hand first. Consistency wise it was quite thick and I found it a little bit lumpy and watery. I would definately not recommend putting this straight onto your face I would opt to put it on your hand first.

I took one of my small contour brushes and swiped over the swatch on my hand and applied to my cheek bones and jaw line.

Colour wise this was actually much darker than I expected especially on my very fair complexion however it was a cooler toned almond brown which worked with my skin tone.

I decided to blend this out with a beauty blender and this actually did blend out really nicely and well despite the initial lumpy/watery consistency.

You only needed a very small amount, a little went a very long way. This dried matte and had very impressive staying powder this didn't just dissapear as the day went on.

It was easily removed with my ZA oil cleanser.

Overall I was pleasantly surprised by the wear and outcome of this concealer especially for the price despite my initial thoughts.

I got this from a two dollar store thinking it would be a regret but boy was I proved wrong. This concealer is so pigmented and has amazing coverage, I paid less than 5 dollars and I'll definitely be repurchasing this once I run out

This product was pretty good with affordable price. It cover my dark circle and also help me to highlight my face. The packaging was great.

Had to get this based on the reviews only then the price with a sale held at Makeup clearance store.

A clear tube with a brush tip applicator. A black lid & black product writing on the tube. It comes sealed with plastic wrap without a box. I have the colour corrector concealer in yellow for the dark blue undereyes & any other blemishes that are dark blue black. I also have the colour fair for just highlighting & concealing.

Contents:a thick fluid liquid cream type concealer. Not so much a mouse based more a liquid/fluid type with a opaque effect. Very thick so best to squirting out a bit then spread it out before going over with more product. Effects: This is opaque yet buildable to full coverage. Once blended out it covers all defects&cancels; any discoloration. It's very thick &creamy; so I find to dot it around brows when tidying without even dispersing any product, is enough to get your brows on fleek. Then when using in your undereyes I pump out just a drop spread it out into a triangle in the necessary area then blend it out adding concelaer as I go to get the final look I want. I do it this way to ensure I don't over do it because I fear if I just go in with too much product I'll waste it or look ridiculous either of the two. I have used the yellow for blue black undereye bags & am happy to review it worked wonders without any creasing may I add. I first put it over the fair concealer then added the fair on top of the yellow & am so pleased with the effect this concealers has. It cancelled out my discoloration with a bit of effort only because I built up the coverage instead of plastering the concealer onto the area. I followed in with a setting translucent loose powder & so happy with the performance of it. I would happily reccomend this brands concealer. It does take great selfie & has a little flashback not very much when using a flash.

I've only ever used a few concealers in my lifetime, but I have so much love for this product. Firstly, the range of shades are so amazing! Especially for my fellow POC. It's super hard trying to find shades that compliment darker skin-tones, but LA Girl have made it possible. 2 thumbs up to them!

The only "con" I have which doesn't really fuss me is the applicator. It's a soft brush that unevenly exudes out the product, but you can always put it on a proper concealer brush or your finger to blend it out.

I highly recommend this concealer. It's easily blendable, lasts for so long, and truly masks all your imperfections.

This little pocket rocket is probably the best concealer i have found that works for me. I use this to conceal and brighten my under eye as well as highlight.Its super easy to apply with the little brush on the end and easily blendable. It's such a thin formula but good coverage. It's lightweight on the skin and it lasts all day with a setting powder. AND its a bargain!!! I would defiantly recommend this to beginners.

LA Girl isn't normally a brand I rush out to purchase but this concealer has been getting so many rave reviews all over the place that I did have to rush and get my hands on one.

Purchasing the lightest shade available from an online NZ store, Beauty Bliss. I had my hands on it within 24 hours.

The packaging is pretty simple but the tube is quite large in comparison to other concealers on the market that come with a price tag of double or more. The clear tube allows you to see the liquid within and the colour of it, and the density of the plastic constructing the tube is malleable enough to be able to comfortably squeeze the product out without too much force having to be expelled. Complete with a black screw on lid, a perfect choice for when it comes to travelling to prevent accidentally spilling it. Wrapped around the tube is the brand name and details in black.

Formula wise, I can see why this is being made into a must have thing, it is thick enough to be able to dab onto areas that require concealing and completely doing so without dragging off foundation, or leaving an uneven surface. It brightens the area slightly and also is thick enough to smooth over finer lines on your face. Faced with the task of covering up the undereye area is did fail slightly but not as much as others I have tried, it gives a lighter coverage that covers nealy 80-90% of the darkness in that area of the face which is pretty good for a no makeup type of day when you want to look natural and not too made up.

this is one product i regret purchasing. yes it's worth a try because its so cheap. its completely up to the individual, you'll either love it or hate it. i hate it.

i hate getting it out of the tube, i hate how its hard to blend, i wish it would just squeeze out of the tube or come in a pot. i have however been practising getting it to not crease under the eyes, although i don't really need coverage under the eyes and don't see the point of using it to brighten the undereyes.

not on keen on L.A. girl makeup...i think i'll stick to their nail polishes instead
