Lets jump onto the product review now :)


What they say

This highly pigmented concealer contains Organic Jojoba Seed Oil, Shea Butter Fruit and Grapefruit Seed Extract.

Yellow: Corrects red blemishes, veins, bruising and dark circles under the eyes.

Fair, Light, Medium, Medium - Dark and Dark: Will conceal most unwanted areas of pigmentation, veins, scars, bruising and blemishes.


Application

Apply Concealer after your foundation to avoid wiping it away. Using a finger or a fine, point tipped brush lightly pat on a small amount of the yellow corrector first, then apply the appropriate skin toned concealer directly over the top. Select a shade slightly lighter than your foundation shade for under the eye area to enhance cheekbones, and the exact match for blemishes on the face. If you have baggy, puffy or crepey skin under the eyes use a concealer that is an exact match to that of your foundation as using a lightler shade will only enhance this flaw.
TIP: Set down with Perfect Finish


My Experience

Its available in three trios, i have the one in med-dark..the two shades, yellow and medium one matches my skin nicely..but the dark one is a little darker..the Ligh-Medium trio would have been the perfect match for me!

It comes in a container, which some people have problem with due to hygiene issue..but thats not an issue for me..its really light, and travel friendly too

The product itself has more of a gel-like consistency, it blends easily on the skin and works really well for under the eyes..the yellow colors reduces any redness like a charms, then top it off with the skin tone color to make the yellowness  disappear!


The only thing which was bothering me was that it has jojoba seed oil and shea butter, which i might skip for my oily skin..But i didn't have much problem, setting it with powder made the shine disappear..you can also set it with a damp sponge, it made the shine disappear and actually looked more natural
(Oh by the way, keep in mind my skin is oily in summers and dry in winters..and this time of the year its more combination/oily..but not extremely oily!)


You can see by the swatches, it is quite pigmented..works really well on skin..I used it in three different ways to seek the perfect result; first by applying the concealer on bare skin..it worked great, even under the eyes..but after 6 hours i felt a little need of touch ups!

Then i used it after applying primer, which was pretty good..the concealer held on great even after 6 hours!

And then the recommended way, using it after applying foundation..which gave even better result, i used relatively less product and the coverage was the best of all

I found this product working better with a brush, rather than my fingers..i used fingers for one eye and concealer brush for the other..The amount of product used with fingers was actually double the amount used with the brush


Overall, it is a great concealer..looks natural and covers well, its great for under the eyes..stays on for a nice amount of time, and works well when paired with your foundation or primer :)

New Luscious Whitening Base for Oily/Combination Skin ~ Review

Image
A year or two ago when i got the Luscious Whitening Base, i looked at it and wished it came in a bigger tube..Im Happy that Luscious Cosmetics released it in a bigger better tube :) Lets see how this one performs! Whats they Say? Save Your Skin!  Sun damage has become a big part of our lives due to pollution and the environment. No matter what your age is, you are at risk of sun damage (dark patches and uneven skin tone) every time you step out without a good sun block. Here to the rescue is Luscious Whitening Base SPF 35. All in One:  • Oil-free Moisturiser  • High performance Sun Protection  • Makeup Primer The benefits: The list is endless. With continued use, you will see a visibly clearer and fairer complexion, as well as smoother skin texture. ShyCheeeks Experience Im really happy they actually changed the tube, the previous one was a little hard to squeeze and was for 'All Skin Types' Now this comes for Oily/Combination and for Dry Skin I like the concept...

Wishlist #12

Image
1. CLINIQUE Cheek Pop Blush These blushes grabbed my attention the moment I laid my eyes upon them. They look adorable with the beautiful floral relief and I hear it's not just their looks that is spectacular, the creamy-powder hybrid formula is highly praised as well. Peach Pop appeals to me most and perhaps even Berry Pop , though it looks super bright. I really wanted to see them in person when I went to Müller a week ago, but it appears Slovenia is late to the party yet again. Boots international has them for £16.50 (about 20.6 €) . 2. DIOR ADDICT Fluid Stick and MAYBELLINE Color Elixir Lip Color   I used to own loads of lip gloss, but I have since completely switched to lipsticks resulting in a very pathetic lip gloss collection for a beauty enthusiast. These new releases by Maybelline and Dior, which are just a couple of the new takes on very pigmented versions of lip gloss formula, caught my attention. I swatched a few Dior ones in Müller and I really liked them. I al...

Hair Oils Series: Kérastase Elixir Ultime

Image
And the award for the most over-dramatic advertising goes to -  Kérastase (owned by L'Oreal): “The alchemy of four precious oils to beautify hair. A new legend is born, the secret of magnificent hair is revealed.” *Facepaw* Alchemy? Legend? Secret of magnificent hair? Give me a break. Who comes up with these things? It’s a hair product not a trailer for a fantasy blockbuster. Let’s keep it real, please. But let’s focus on the product. Packaging : A clear plastic bottle with a pump. It's good for travelling, not only because it's plastic, but also because the bottle is light. It has a pump that dispenses the product nicely and in small amounts, so it's easy to pump out the desired amount. Because the bottle is clear, it's better to keep it stored in a dark place to protect it from sunlight. Ingredients : First two ingredients are silicones as with all of these hair oils. They are followed by corn oil, argan oil, camelia oil and pracaxi oil. The rest six ingredients a...
