LA Girl HD Pro Concealer

I brought this concealer after reading and watching rave reviews on it! I have mixed feelings about this product, I find it creases under my eyes and only provides a light coverage (it does not cover old acne scarring that I have). However for the price I paid for this product I did not expect to much! I only reach for this concealer if I am low on my other products or just needing a light coverage on my face, I don't think I will repurchase as I have other concealers that do a better job for me personally.

I splurged and bought most shades of these. Some arrived separated and had to be thrown out straight away. However I went on using the rest in my pro kit. They are creamy, high coverage and can be cakey if you add a touch too much. After a few months I ended up replacing them as they started to separate

This product is light weight with a medium coverage, so works well for brighteneng the under eye but doesnt really cover dark circles. It does last all day but it did crease into my fine lines, which is a let down, as the saying goes you get what you pay for.

I bought this when I was desperate and had left my MAC concealer at mums. This was the closest to my skin tone and cheap as chips. It's an ok product but it is very heavy and you really need to work it in to avoid obvious signs. It is tacky and not easy to get used to but if you are looking for a contouring product I would suggest this as there are so many shades to choose from.

LA Girl is one of those new and up coming brands that has become a huge sensation amongst me and my family. I noticed it being sold online and at some stores. I often get this one mixed up with LA colors , not sure why?

This one comes in this tube. Easy to apply to my skin. Your normal concealer liquid. Didn't have much of a smell to me. I found it had good coverage over my medium to dark coloured skin tone. I have just started to learn how to contour with it. I got mine in a lighter shade to put under my foundation or just bronzer. Dependent on the look I want.

My results were good. Easy to use. Not badly priced for this product. Still have it in my collection. Will almost be finished it soon.

I wanted to love this as every one was going crazy for it on facebook. I was lucky enough to get mine for $1!!! at postie plus in christchurch but the colour I got was off, I got ivory and it was very pink tinted, I felt it gave great coverage though and was good for the under eye area. The brush on it was not what I expected, and it smelled kind of funky. I wouldnt buy it at full price even though its not very dare but I would try the other colours if on special.

I bought this in the lightest colour available at the time- classic ivory and it is far too dark for my skin. Just had a look on the LA Girl website and saw they have new lighter colours which is great because classic ivory was at least 2 shades too dark for me.

I still use it to prime my eyelids and I find it good to cover redness around my nose as it is quite orangey. I've worn it under my eyes a few times and it seems to sit ok but I just couldn't deal with how dark it was. It didn't highlight my under-eye area at all.

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 was so disappointed with this! Everyone and their mother on YouTube was using this but it was just too thick and dark for me! :( But I do use it as a cream contour - I'm super pale though!
