Conceal Conceal Conceal!

Hi guys,

Sorry for the late post! I been so busy and lazy the past couple of week. But at last I've master up the motivation to do a review about the new conceal and foundation I've been using. Being a college student really bring out the sleep deprivation out of you.
I probably see the sun rise about 3 time a weeks. There fore I was on the hunt for a new concealer with better coverage. The old one i used to use was the "MAC MOISTURE SELECT". I had it in the shade NC 25 for under eye purposes. I love, love, love that concealer. Sadly with my new sleeping schedule, I could no longer hold the load for my rapidly approaching raccoon eyes.

Then here came the BOBBI BROWN concealer to my rescue. Overall I would say this is a medium to full coverage concealer compare to the MAC which was sheer to medium. The concealer formula does move around a bit, which I like because I usually apply mine with a sigma 224 brush and buff it in. I find that because it not too dry of a formula I can really blend it seamlessly into my under eye area. I do reccommend you put on some eye cream before even putting on the concealer because it make the blending so much more easy and effortless. The powder that come with the kit I bought is quite handy, and through out the day I find the concealer for the most part stay in place and doesn't travel and settle into the lines under my eye!! Because I wear glasses it sometime have little smudge mark but that can't be avoided for glasses nerd like me! I would give this concealer kit an A!






To apply:

1. Apply the corrector first (usually pink/salmon tone) and is the smaller compact.
2. Apply the concealer on from the larger dual compact.
3. Lightly brush on some of the pale yellow powder to set the concealer.
4. LOOK ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.

Next is the foundation I been testing out for quite some time. I've jump on the band wagon for NARS cosmetic. After lots of research and youtube videos I've settle into buying the NARS SHEER GLOW. I love it, I think it's worth every penny. It light and cover well and best of all doesn't break me out! I have oily skin and they're super sensitive so I'm always cautious about trying new foundation. But this pass the test. I usually apply this with the sigma 188 brush for an air brush look. It's completely natural looking and last a decent amount of hours through the day. It feels super nice on my skin, I don't feel like I have a mask on and a plus for me is that the foundation is fragrance free!




And last but not last I'd like to share my new frivilous buy TWEETY -this made my day better just having this around :)



Happy Easter Guys!
