Applying concealer? Ask your friends first!
Posted on: June 18, 2011
When it comes to beauty products, sometimes the best way to get the scoop on the best products out there is to talk to your girlfriends. What lip gloss they are wearing, what new nail polish they can't get enough of, or tip on applying concealer. Talking to your girlfriends or other people who have used different products is a great source of information because you can get real, honest opinions. Your girlfriends aren't biased to certain products--they just look for what really works.
I've recently spoken to several of my friends on a quest to find the best concealer. I am always looking for a good concealer, especially something that will hide any other blemishes or red spots that always seem to pop up. I've always heard that Amazing Cosmetics makes the best under eye concealer, but I wanted to find out the real scoop from my friends who have actually used the product.
Some background: Amazing Concealer is an ultra pigmented, high coverage concealer that covers multiple imperfections of the skin. It is available online and at beauty stores such as Sephora. The company website shows the tiny tube of Amazing Concealer in 10 different shades, so applying concealer to match each and every skin tone is a piece of cake!
Reviews: I found a lot of positive feedback on this product, from articles calling Amazing Concealer a "magic eraser" to reviews by professional make up artists who use this product on their clients in Hollywood. But does it work on real women? I spoke with several friends who swear by it and call it the best under eye concealer they have ever used.
My friend Lindsay uses it to cover up dark circles under her eyes, which is a common problem for a lot of women. Sometimes a lack of proper sleep or stress can cause dark circles, but some women, like my friend Lindsay find that they may be genetic. Here's what she has to say about why she likes this under eye concealer: "This is the greatest concealer I have ever used. I have very dark, hereditary, circles under my eyes and these literally cover these completely. And it only takes a very tiny bit."
I like the little tube it comes in; you don't need very much of this stuff to go a long way. It is a waterproof, super-emollient formula that helps to create a flawless complexion by blending into the skin to cover dark circles, blotchy red spots, dark circles, pimples, and other imperfections. Another friend who recommended it to me had this to say: "I have been using this product for a few years now. All I can say no other product has yet to beat this one. Got a blemish, dab on Amazing Concealer, buh, bye blemish! Got a pimple or pimples, dab on Amazing Concealer, all covered." She uses Amazing Concealer in Medium Beige, which is great for light beige and olive skin tones, as an under eye and imperfection cover up daily along with a foundation and light blush.
