If you read my last post, Looking Your Best While Ill, you know that I depend on
concealer when I want to look bright-eyed, healthy, and awake, so today I want
to share my favorites with you.
Most days I actually prefer using
concealer on any areas that need evening out instead of using a foundation. For
this I like to use the Transcendent Concentrated Correcting Concealer by
Pacifica. I like to apply this in stripes down the nose, a few on each cheek,
and a bit on my forehead and chin and then blend outwards. It provides a
beautiful coverage, blends out like a dream, wears well throughout the day, and
never settles into any fine lines. My skin tends to be a bit dry and this
provides a hydrating coverage that I really love. It feels great on the skin
and looks flawless.
I also have two mineral concealer
powders that I love from Alima Pure, in the color Sand, and Kari Gran, in Fair.
I’m planning on doing a review of the entire range of Kari Gran cosmetics in
the next week or two so I’m going to skip giving you a thorough review in this
post. Just know that I really, really, really love it! I actually prefer Kari
Gran’s concealer but the Alima Pure one is also really nice and the amount of
coverage it provides is incredible. I’ve also found that on days when I need
super duper coverage I can layer one of these powder concealers over my
Pacifica for a look that’s flawless.
The area I feel I need the most
coverage is under my eyes. I have dark circles and heavy baggage so the
majority of my concealers are specifically formulated for the under eye region.
I’m beyond in love with the Dreamlit Illuminating Under Eye Brightener from Pacifica. It comes in 2 shades, Bare
(yellow based) and Dreamlight (pink based), and I really like both. The formula
is silky and buttery and feels more like a high-end treatment for your skin
than an affordably priced cosmetic. They go on smoothly and make my dry skin
looks bright, hydrated, and concealed. I’m a huge fan! I also like the wand
applicator.
I recently picked up the Alba
Botanica Fast Fix for Underye Circles Vanishing Concealer and I’m impressed. I
wasn’t expecting much because I got this for $4.99 and thought it wasn’t going
to be very effective but I was so happy to be proven wrong. It’s a yellow-based
cream that feels unbelievably soft and makes undereyes look effortlessly light
and healthy. It feels so nice and blends seamlessly into my skin. I’m super
impressed and happy with my purchase.
