Brand Insight: Take one! Concealer

 
I have decided to start a new series called Brand Insight! In this series I will feature the top high-end and drugstore products for a certain domain of makeup. This will feature tried and tested makeup findings for you to explore and enjoy! First up: Concealer!

 

Drugstore Concealer:

 

1) Maybelline Fit Me Concealer:

 
 
This is an amazing concealer that I have been using for about 3 years now! A lot of drugstore concealers tend to be waxy to the point that blending is a nightmare!! This concealer however, is so creamy!  It blends into the skin flawlessly and doesn't look cakey at all! It works perfectly to high dark circles under the eyes as well as redness or hyperpigmentation and acne scars on the face. I've found that the best way to apply this concealer is to pat it in using your ring finger rather than using a brush. The concealer comes in 6 shades and can be found at Target, Wal-Mart or your local drugstore for  as cheap as $4!

High-End Concealer:

 

2) NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer:

 
 
This concealer is hands-down one of the best high-end concealer I have ever used. The formula is light-weight but buildable, and conceals like a dream. It is also very hydrating to this skin and gives a luminous, radiant finish as the name suggests. It is perfect to use not only to conceal imperfections but also as a cream highlighter as it has great pigmentation! Also, the line has a great color range from fair-tones to darker-tones as well as shades with pinker undertones and yellow undertones. This concealer can be found on the Nars Cosmetics website (www.narscosmetics.com) for $28. It may seem a bit pricey, but it is completely worth it as the concealer is completely crease-proof.
