Shade & Illuminate Concealer

I have tried every concealer out there… I have very fine lines but concealers wouldn’t want you to know that.. it dries right in my creases and makes me look like I’m cosplaying a 95 year old!! I begrudgingly tried this (Admittedly because of the price point) and am amazed….. holy grail! It makes my under eye look bright and hydrated and it smooths away my lines!! And when I say you use a tiny bit!! If you use too much it’s not as good - so this will last a long time which makes it completely worth every penny!! I will never use another concealer again!! I’m so glad I found this before my fine lines age to wrinkles - I’m ready with my concealer lol

I so wanted to love this concealer since im a big fan of TF and most specifically the foundation but this was soooo drying. More drying for me than the tarte shape tape which can be pretty dry compared to many concealers. 3w1 was very close to my skin color which is an NC 35-38. I hope it works for you!

Better than I hoped it would be. Perfect for those with dry skin or those with mature skin. Expensive, but definitely worth it. A little goes a long way. I use the concealer after applying my moisturizer but before I apply my foundation. After applying my foundation, I use it again under my eyes for a little extra coverage. Love it.

Nothing illuminating about this. This dries down quickly and looks good if you don’t use too much. I used it while traveling and it worked well for getting ready quick. Very easy to blend with finger, lasts all day if you use a light hand. Covered well too. You have to start with a hydrated well-moisturized base. Because this can be drying and look makeupy if you use too much or you live in a very dry climate with dry skin. I think it works well in certain humid/normal climate conditions. I noticed sitting in front of an AC in my car, my skin just dried out and it looked kinda bad. But when I was in a more humid environment, it looked natural. It also doesn’t need to be powdered down. Hydrating setting spray might be the way to set this, not powder. The only things I don’t like are the essential oils and fragrances. Why can’t these innovative luxury brands figure this out? Fragrant oils are NOT skincare or makeup. They are irritating to the skin, and lavender especially can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. So why would you want that oil near your delicate eye skin?? Some people probably aren’t at risk for this irritation if you sit inside all day. But don’t wear essential lavender oil on your face if you’re going outside. Try Armani luminous silk concealer if you want something smoother and more forgiving under the eye. Or hourglass concealer is also great for a cheaper alternative with a high cover matte finish.
