All About the Concealers! Concealer, BB Eye Cream, and Corrector

A good concealer can help us to achieve a flawless skin look that we all to die for! But it is never easy to find the right one. This task has been my holy grail and as you can see I have been through so many similar products. I will like to share with you some of my thoughts and how I get on with the job of conceal! Last but not least, My star product: the corrector I recently discovered, and ever since I cannot live without it! 

What is your favourite concealer? and how do you cover that annoying under eye bags? Please leave me a comment or tweet me @wentaslktoshoes I will love to hear what you think! 

Under Eye Concealers

★★★★☆

Bourjois Healthy Mix Concealer

I have this concealer for ages, but recently I fell in love with it again! It has a great coverage, not too drying, not too dewy, just perfect for my skin. I use it mainly for under the eyes but I also use it sometimes around the face. Highly recommend it!

★★★★☆

Revlon Colorstay Concealer

This is also a very good concealer. It has a Great coverage with a creamy texture. Be careful not to apply too much because it may crease after a while (Certainly it is the case for me). Just a little few dots at where you need it. I love to use it for around the face as well. It is fantastic for covering the blemish.

★★☆☆☆

Collection Illuminating Touch

I feel this product is Great for a night out. The light will bounce back and it gives a great highlighting effect! However, it is a bit too dry for me. Have to be honest, I am not a big fan for this product. I wouldn't wear it during the day. Having said that, if you have oily skin this may be great for you, because once it is on, it sets! No need for reapplying!

BB Eye Creams and Treatment

Garnier BB Eye Cream Roll on & Dior Hydra Life BB Eye Cream

I Love BB eye Creams! They instantly brighten your eyes. It seems to me that they don't really have sparkles or light refection in them. So they look so natural. Great for day time (and great for boys!!), not to mention they also contain lots of skincare ingredients!

The colour of Garnier works better for me than Dior's; however, Dior's feels much more hydrating on the skin. I guess each one of their own. I use both quite regularly during the day. Generally speaking, BB eye creams do not have strong conceal power. So if you need more coverage, do what I do. I add a little bit of light reflecting concealer on top, especially if it is a night out!

Soap & Glory Trick And Treatment

This is such a great discovery in my trail of searching for the right concealers. The texture of this product is so light and moisturising. It is very easy to blend, it won't crease on me. It has so many light-reflecting particles, it is literally shinning (I understand it may not be everyone's cuppa tea, but you have to try it. Maybe it can be used as highlighter as well). It has quite a strong yellow-tone which is supposed to correct the under eye blue-purple-ish dark circle. I don't know if it fits everyone's skin tone, but it works for me. My dark circles are largely covered. And the best of all, it contains skincare ingredient that would reduce the dark circles for long run! Loving it!

Corrector

Bobbi Brown Corrector

This is the stars in my eyes! I LOVE this product so much. I think anyone who has dark eye circle problems should go and try it immediately!!! It is magic! It will counteract the blue-ish or purple-ish colour under your eyes for you. Use the corrector first, then apply your regular concealer on top! (I sometimes just use the corrector and the coverage is already good enough!)

Alternatively you can also try Armani Master Corrector. A friend of mine Bagel is using it and loving this corrector. Actually it was her who suggested me to try the corrector. Armani's one is more liquidy and very hydrating! But it only has two shades. Bobbi Brown's corrector is more a cream texture. Perhaps it is less hydrating but I never have a problem with it. (I always use eye cream underneath). Bobbi Brown has so many different shades. You will definitely find one that suits your skin tone! Highly recommend it!

Hope you find this blog helpful! These are just my thoughts and opinions. If you using the products I mentioned, please do leave me a comment (or tweet me) to let me know how you feel about them!
