What is your fave concealer??

Postby erin_e on Thu Sep 15, 2011 5:23 pm

What is your favorite concealer for covering undereye circles and blemishes? Any brand, any type...lay it on me. I'm trying to find a great concealer b/c lately the MAC Select Moisturecover I use isn't cutting it. I'm an NC and use an NW concealer. I have a Becca concealer which I do like BUT it could stand to be a tiny bit creamier in texture to help it blend better. I hear great things about the Laura Mercier concealer and Bobbi Brown's. :?:

Gosh Touch Up Concealer (mainly since it's light enough for me) and sometimes I use (I know many doesn't like to use it for undereyes because of creasing, which has never happened to me) Benefit Erase Paste.

I have tried both Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier's concealer (the creamy ones in pots). along with Eve Pearls. I believe they are nice but there coverage doesn't last very long even when setting with a powder (for me at least). I know many loove these concealers. Currently I'm looking into trying tarte's new waterproof concealer which comes in a lipstick type of casing: http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.j ... goryId=B70

i'll let you know what i think of it.

i too have tried a plethora of mac and other brands. they either crease too much on me or aren't opaque enough/ last just a couple hours :(

As a law student, MAC Select Moisturecover just doesn't work for the dark circles. I've tried Bobbi Brown Corrector and it was alright, but I still felt the need to dot on a little more concealer on top. The best I've found so far is Benefit Erase Paste. It does crease a bit during the day but if you just pat a bit under your eyes it goes away. It's the most opaque concealer that lasts all day.

As far as concealer for zits or redness on the face, NARS or Makeup Forever are my go tos. They last all day and don't look cakey.

As an MUA I have a few, but at the mo' my faves are FitMe concealers by Maybelline for the under eye area, and Judith August's Killer cover for neutralising redness and spider veins.

I really love the Eve Pearl Salmon concealer. It works great for me. It covers my dark circles and the coverage lasts all day. It's a little on the pricey side, but I think it's worth it!

I really like Skinfood's Salmon Dark Circle Concealer Cream, I've never used Eve Pearl or Bobbie Browns concealer but I've read reviews which compare the Skinfood products as a dupe for these at only $10us (inc. shipping) off eBay.

I now use Maybelline Dream Mousse concealer corrector, it works quite well with my oily skin.

Make Up For Ever Camouflage Palette #1 because it corrects multiple problems and doesn't irritate my exceedingly sensitive skin. It is a bit thick, so I take a tiny spot of moisturizer and apply it to my finger before picking up concealer so it has a creamier texture. I hope they never change the formula!

MAC's Select Moisturecover doesn't work for me either. Barely covers and irritates my skin. I have bumps wherever I apply it the following day. Totally not worth it to me.

I recently tried maybelline fit me concealer. it goes on pretty matte, you have to touch it up though. the thing i didn't like about it is that when i got in the shower, it just smeared right off. i've tried like 20 concealers, and none of them had done that ever. so it doesn't hold up very long.... maybe if layered with other products/sealing spray.
