If I use them directly under my eye, I find they settle in my fine lines, so I stick to using them about 1/4 inch from my eye and down and this doesn't happen as badly. You can always add layers of coverage once the first layer sets if you want. I found they work much better if used sparingly and blended well. I think using a soft brush such as the Techniques brand concealer size brushes a must. I do find it a bit of a challenge to blend them properly since if you use too much they can get cakey especially after you've had them for a while and they get a little bit dryer. I have had zero breakouts from them as well as zero irritation. The only thing about not having silicones, however, is that it may be a tad harder to spread the concealer. I also love that they contain no silicones such as dimethicone as I tend to get plugged pores from products with them. I really like the Nyx concealers because they are super gentle on my skin which is sensitive and prone to Rosacea flares. I already own and use the fair color concealer which I use for general coverup such as brown spots. I just bought the green to tone down blotchy, red areas or reddish tiny broken vessels such as those around my nose and the yellow for bluish or purple discolorations under my eyes. This concealer defies gravity and physics in order to be absolute crap. I've got oily skin, but somehow it happened. That is until I looked in the mirror three hours later to see that it seemed to have become the dessert on my face. When I smoothed this stuff on the skin, it was fabulous. So I have a little bit of pink around my nose like some of us sun deprived folk have. Whiter than snow, okay? They wrote snow white based on me. I've got no complaints here.įor hyperpigmentation: I'm a white girl. They could have filmed Star Wars there.įor acne - actually pretty decent for the face bumps. Not until I put on this stuff! Suddenly I had lines underneath my eyes spanning the galaxies. On the outside of the container it looks super dark and I thought it was going to look like I was a raccoon, but it was actually pretty light, and I'm pretty light, so all is good on this front.įor Under the eye sockets - Let me tell you a thing. OR SO I THOUGHT! I thought it was Heaven in a little cheap, plastic container, but I was wrong.Ĭolor - the color is pretty great. Once I finally scrape it out, it smooths wonderfully onto my skin. By that I mean it's impossible to get out of the little hellish jar. I was very wrong.Ĭonsistency and Application - Concealer should be like butter, but if this stuff is butter, then it's hell's butter that's been fried too long and to get it out, you have to cut it with Lucifer's blade himself. Originally I thought that this concealer was the best thing to grace this Earth since the internet's infatuation with Kanye West.
