A good concealer is hard to find. I’ve been through it all and, although I have my favorites, no one concealer completely does the trick for me. Either it’s incredibly heavy on the skin and I need only a dab, or it’s too thin and I need to apply multiple layers. Sometimes the texture is too creamy and it creases, and sometimes it’s too dry and it seeps into the little fine lines.
A look inside one of my beauty drawers
Recently, I did a bit of much needed makeup organizing. As a makeup artist, I have drawers and drawers of product and it was time for a good clean-up and organization. I came across products I haven’t tried yet, including L’Oréal’s Visible Lift Serum Inside Line Minimizing Concealer and it was a good find.
I’m half Egyptian (I know, shocker!) and I have the standard-issue blue-grey circles under my eyes. As I age, it gets worse. Additionally, I have these little fine lines popping up under my eyes. It’s a wonderful combination, just kidding.
The concealer is pen-like in shape and has its own applicator-brush. The top of the wand turns clock-wise and clicks to release product into the brush. Typically, I like to apply product with a separate concealer brush but didn’t mind the applicator it came with. It fits neatly in the inner corner of eyes and can get close underneath the lower lash-line. The formula is amazing. It’s soft, lightweight, sets, does not crease, and has coverage. Just one swipe completely neutralized my under eye circles. I’m hooked!
Try the product with Embryolisse Eye Contour Treatment.
