I have
used concealer probably for only special occasions, like going to dinner with
my BF on Friday nights, and even then sometimes I forget. I use to be that
crazy person that wakes up like 2 hours before I have to leave the house just
to do my makeup. I know it sounds ludicrous, but I love makeup and would wake
up at anytime for it. Lately, I've gotten lazy and not gotten up early and have
not been using it. I have made it a goal to get up early and do my makeup and
maybe even my hair, because it's something I truly enjoy doing. If I am happy
in the morning, the rest of my day will make me happy, at least that's how I
see it.
I
normally use concealer to brighten up my undereye area so that way I don't look
so exhausted, which to be honest, I always am so I should probably start using
it more frequently. But anyway, my routine is usually primer (Hangover RX), foundation - whatever one I feel
like using that day from my drawer, and then concealer. The one I have been
loving lately is Tarte Shape Tape Concealer,
which is available at Ulta and I'm sure many department stores. It's
actually on a 25% sale right now on Tarte's website,which ends TODAY!!
I have been loving this concealer because it just blends so nicely and a little bit
goes a long freakin way. I had watched some beauty gurus on YouTube use it and
they would make the triangle shape underneath their eyes so when I first got
it, I did that too and oooo girl that was WAY too much. It look me forever to
blend it out and by the end, my whole face was covered in concealer. Do not
make the same mistake that I did and use just a tiny dot or two under your eye.
Trust me, that is way better than looking like a ghost. If you need to add more
after you blend that out, you can certainly do so but I'm just giving a fair
warning that you don't need a lot of it. This is actually a good thing because
for the price of it and the amount that you get, using it will probably last
you a year, if not more. I would recommend using a beauty blender to blend it
out, but if you feel that a brush does a better job, you do you girl. This
concealer covers a lot in just a little bit of use. I have seen my undereye go
from dark to flawless just by using this product. It will cover what you need
it to cover but also brighten. I don’t know if I would necessarily recommend
this as a blemish cover because the concealer color you want to get is usually
a shade or two lighter than your foundation/skin color, but what you can do is
use it before foundation, cover the blemish, and then use foundation over it
and it won't look bright or standing out. I would say this product does exactly
what I need it to do and would recommend it to anybody needing a great
concealer. It has great coverage, a little goes a long way, and the quality is
amazing. I've heard that their foundation in the line is also pretty good, but
have yet to try it. Please let me know if you have and if you would recommend
it!
