Bobbi Brown Concealer Kit Review

I was convinced by a Bobbi Brown artist to buy this as part of a makeover and I do admit she did a reasonable job of applying it however I found the pressed powder ended up in lines in the creases under my eyes. The colour had to be carefully matched and I found mine quite 'yellow' and had to be used in conjunction with foundation. The concealer itself was easier to apply without the setting powder and I actually found having more than one step to do was time consuming and ended up 'caking' by the time I had finished my whole look. The price is up there when there are other products on the market that in my opinion are superior (Bobbi Brown corrector for one). And I didn't notice any difference in moisture levels in my lower lids... I am a BB fan so was really disappointed.

I love the BB Foundation so I expected this to be fab, but it falls a little short from that. It kind of wrinkles around the eyes if you put too much on but doesn't do much cover if you put it on too thin. Does help colour pimples alright though. overall a bit too expensive for how good it is.

The perks of being a multi-national brand is that heaps of people will buy your stuff because of your logo; the downside is, well, people have expectations. I am one of those people. The packaging is elegant, travel-friendly, and the concealer + powder combo is certainly genius. I loved that the concealer was super creamy and covers over the darkest of scars on my face, but wrinkle-friendly this is not. I don't think I have terrible under-eye wrinkles yet because of my age, but after a couple of hours this stuff accentuates them like no tomorrow. I'll invest in a good eyecream, but until then I'll probably use a more liquid under-eye concealer!
