Concealers -NYX - HD Photogenic Concealer Wand

This is an unbelievable concealer. The consistency is nice and thick, so it doesn't budge throughout the day. Some other 'drugstore' concealers I've tried have ran the risk of appearing to cakey - but this one gives a very natural matte finish. I got mine in 'Yellow', and I was afraid the undertone was going to be too strong, but does a very good job of blending into my skin. Although the tube is very small, the smallest amount of product is needed to cover my dark circles and even then there is always remaining concealer I use around the nose area. An excellent, high quality concealer that I will definitely buy again.

Reading the comments, a lot of people seem disappointed that the coverage from this product is relatively low. However, I've been a long-time user of BB creams before their became a mainstream craze, and I personally love the lightweight look. So, just a note - if you want something with heavy coverage and colour correct, most BB won't be for you. This is a fantastic product, beyond my expectations. In the past, the BB creams I've used have been from Korea and this is the first mainstream one I've bought. I bought this in the shade 'fair' and it oxidises beautifully into my skin. I like how it's scentless, and doesn't take long time to set. I don't need to set it with a compact cause it has a pretty good stay power. The finish is neither matte or dewy, but somewhere inbetween - it adds a nice glow around the forehead and nose area but doesn't seem too bright at all. I do have to use a concealer to cover my under eye circles, but I didn't expect a BB cream to conceal them anyway. Overall, I'm massively pleased with this product. I will definitely buy it again and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants sheer coverage with a lightweight feel!
