Physicians Formula Conceal Rx Concealers







These are the BEST full coverage concealers i have ever used!! If you need an awesome concealer please check out these Physicians Formula Conceal Rx concealers! They come in three shades; i chose soft green and light (skin tone).

PROS
full coverage
dries quickly
doesnt budge at all once it's dry
a little goes a VERY long way
not too pricey at $9 each
soft green concealer covers any and all redness or blemishes
light skin tone concealer is great for everything else
doesnt wear off easily
long lasting
tubes are pretty large

CONS
needs to come in more shades like yellow and/or lilac for under eyes


I am in love with these! Its seriously the best concealer ever, especially if you have acne or acne scarring that you want to cover. They both work amazingly well and i wish i would have bought them sooner!

Rimmel Anti-Fatigue Concealer


 

I got this for $1.37 at Kmart in a haul a couple weeks ago and its my new favorite under eye concealer! It claims to "conceal imperfections and dark shadows and instantly brighten the skin". I dont know what these typically sell for but i got it SUPER cheap! lol
PROS
VERY creamy
glides on smooth and opaque
powdery finish
fills in fine lines
lightweight
covers dark circles
brightens under eyes
long lasting
doesnt fade
scent free
CONS
N/a!
The shade i purchased was Ivory, i found it in the clearance bins at Kmart and i was very happy with the price so i figured it was worth a try. This stuff definitely does what it claims to do and i love it! I have been using it everyday under my makeup to conceal any dark circles and brighten my under eyes. It has an amazing powdery finish even though it goes on creamy and its very lightweight! I cant even feel it ones its applied. If you can find these at your local Kmart, or anywhere, you should def try it!! Thanks for reading!

Benefit Erase Paste in Medium



I recieved this mini Benefit Erase Paste (Medium) in the Benefit Ready.. Set.. STAY! Trio ($26) in my Mother's Day order from www.sephora.com
In most cases i would have purchased this in Light, not medium, because of how fair skinned I am. However, i find that the pink undertones in the Medium shade are great for concealing my under eye circles!
[PROS]
VERY creamy
pigmented
applies very easily
a little goes a loooong way
blends super easy
doesn't crease or wear off
[CONS]
This mini container is too small to fit fingers in so you need a small brush (or use your pinky).
Besides the fact that the mini is too small for using fingers in it, it still has alot of product. Its amazing just how little you need to cover something and how easily it glides on and covers everything up! I like to use the Benefit Stay Don't Stay eye primer under this to make it keep extra long. It doesnt work well for eyeshadows but its great for concealers!
Overall, this is an A+ product and i should have bought it alot sooner! *photos are mine.

E.L.F. Corrective Concealer


I purchased this concealer palette at Kmart for $3 a few days ago. I was in dire need of a palette like this, as my Physicians Formula one became dry, caky, and just plain didnt work well. I wasnt willing to shell out alot of money, so $3 if perfect for me, and surprisingly this is the only drugstore concealer palette available in my area.

Nude: covering blemishes light skin tones
Green: hiding red marks/spots
Lilac: Balancing yellowness/under eye circles
Tan: covering blemishes medium skin tones

I actually really enjoy the brush that comes w/ this palette, and I normally find that I dont. Its small and easy to handle, plus the bristles are firm and feel really nice. So far I have not noticed any hairs falling out, but because of the thick/creamy textures of these concealers the brush is a little hard to clean. A double ended brush would have been nicer.

The concealers themselves are very creamy and pigmented, but i do find that they wear off easier than some higher-end brands do. Its not a huge issue, and can be fized by using a makeup setting spray or a good foundation. Overall i like this palette and i'm very pleased with it.
