Revlon PhotoReady Concealer (#002 Light Pale)

Revlon so far is one of the best 'drugstore' brands that produces a lot of great and fabulous products that works well any where in the world I think. I've bought their Revlon Photo Ready Two-Way Powder Foundation (I'll link my review on their powder below) and their concealer and I'm not sure whether I like this concealer a not... Yes a love hate relationship with this little fellow here. 

Revlon PhotoReady Concealer (#002 Light Pale) (SGD $19.90) is a very creamy stick concealer, a quick swipe, blend and go type of concealer. The formula is quite pigmented and blends out nicely but however it is very lack of shades. I went for the lightest because all the rest of their shades looked a tad too dark on me but at least I still could still test it out.

It blends out well and has a solid pigmented formula. It’ll hide dark circles, fine lines, it’ll pretty much conceal any woe you have in and around your eyes and face without a doubt however it will crease and it will cake under the eye area particularly if you suffer from dry, aging eye.

Who might like it better?

• Younger eyes that aren’t dry (youthful eyes will find this works and comes with a nice budget prices).
• Those that use concealer on their face (anyone with redness, spots, etc…will find this conceals quite well due to a pigmented formula).
• Anyone with oily skin (those with oily skin might find this blends and wears more naturally compared to those with drier skin).

My final thoughts? I love it when my eyes isn't that dry and well moisturize and it would have been better if they have a few more shades, but it does work very well for my oily combination skin and stay on very well for a very humid/hot weather like in Singapore. I'm still very undecided for this particular fellow I guess.

What about you?? Have you tried Revlon PhotoReady Concealer? What do you think?

YSL Multi-Action Concealer

I have been constantly trying new concealers since I learn about them when I started putting on makeup. I have natural dark eye circles that are inherited from my family.
I came across this YSL Multi-Action Concealer while trying some other new lipsticks in their counter. So naturally I took this opportunity to try something new. Always wanted to try a high-end concealer stick so here is my chance. Needless to say, YSL products are always  beautifully package.

YSL Multi-Action Concealer: Ivory Beige (#1) (SGD $50) consistency is very creamy, smooth and easy to blend. Has a high coverage due to its high pigmentation. Only had 4 colors to choose from, I settled for the lightest with a peachy tone. Their Nude Beige (#2) was a bit too dark for me. The range of colors is not very impressive and I wish that they have a bit more colors to choose from.

I used this more to highlight, I'm really fond that it's creamy,opaque yet it doesn't settle into any fine lines but needs to set with a powder. It last fairly well through out the day and is great that I can just chuck it in my makeup bag to carry it on the go for touch ups because it is so compact. Not the best value for money as it only contains 2grams. Only check this out if you are looking for convenience or your budget allows it. For the price I would't recommend it, when there are a lot of great concealers out there in the market now that is much more pocket friendly.

Have a great day ladies! See you next time for my next post!!
