e.l.f Hydrating Satin Camo Concealer Fair Warm

Product Information

What it is: A long-lasting liquid concealer that provides crease-resistant full coverage with a satin finish. The concealer also lives up to its name and works well for adding contouring or definition to the face. Despite offering a full coverage, it still feels lightweight and not at all cakey.

A problem I have found with concealer is finding the right shade, but with 50 shades on offer, Revolution makes it easy to find one that suits. I personally opt for the shade C1 which I find to be a perfect match. I have pale skin and find this shade to work really well with my skin tone. For concealers, the idea is that you want to go a little bit lighter than your skin tone because you’re covering a darker area,” explains Dr. Lee. By taking this route, your final look will appear more even toned. “However, if you’ve got a really red pimple, you can start with a green camouflage concealer,” she says, which will neutralize the redness before you apply the rest of your makeup. It wasn’t heavily scented. All in all a very nice, effective product worthy of its 5 stars! Works as good as my Estée Lauder at a fraction of the price!! 10/10!" Take a look at yourself near a window or in natural lighting to make sure the concealer is blended thoroughly.My only complaint was the colour match was not quite correct. Bearing in mind I bought the light peach shade, designed for cool-toned skin, it did look a little orange on me and took some blending. What it is: A crease-resistant liquid concealer that provides a matte finish and full coverage for up to 16 hours. Be very careful to avoid really heavy products. You should try to find both a concealer and a foundation that’s formulated to not clog pores, “especially if you have a pretty oily complexion,” says Dr. Lee, who adds that heavy cream-based or petroleum-based products can easily promote more breakouts. Most importantly, occlusion is often one of the first steps in the development of a pimple, so preventing it from happening in the first place is key. As well as concealing my dark circles, it also did a good job at covering my blemishes, as I typically get hormonal breakouts on my chin area. When it comes to concealing pimples, it’s a precision game,” says Dr. Lee. You can always use your fingertips or a Beautyblender, but the best tool to use is a tiny lip or eyeliner brush to “dab around the edge of the pimple and feather outwards to blend, so you’re not creating that “bullseye” look,” she says.

I like a full coverage and this concealer does just that. It covers dark circles effortlessly and is ideal for brightening up your undereye. It also works well for covering up any spots or blemishes.It would be great to see Boots extend their shade range to accommodate people with darker skin tones, because this is still an industry-wide inclusivity issue. One review said: “I’ve tried concealers by Nars, TooFaced, Tarte etc. This one is by far my fave. Amazing coverage but doesn’t crease or make my under eyes look dried out.”

A Boots own brand concealer has been flooring shoppers, with some even saying it’s as good as high-end brand Estée Lauder. Eyebags are always a big issue for me, and without them covered, I feel like a makeup look is never complete. With that said, it’s important to note that the shades between the two lines do not match up. Above, you can see that I swatch the original 16 Hour Camo Concealer in Medium Peach (middle) next to the new Hydrating Camo Concealer in Medium Peach (right). There’s a pretty big difference! On the left, I have the Hydrating Camo Concealer in the shade Light Beige which ended up being a better match than the other two. The range, loved by celebs like Tilly Ramsay features 170 vegan beauty staples - all of which are cruelty free.

As a last step, dust lightly with loose powder that matches your skin tone to set the concealer in place,” says Dr. Lee. The formula was rich and creamy, giving my under eyes full coverage without looking or feeling like there was anything there. I could not believe how seamless my under eye area looked. Hydrating Concealer provides coverage for imperfections on your skin but also helps hydrate your skin. It is formulated with ingredients to moisturize and nourish your skin providing a smoother and more radiant complexion. I did find it blended well and a small amount of product goes a long way. I wouldn’t say it’s highly pigmented, but it is buildable without being cakey to offer a more full-coverage look. I was pleased with the results, which offered a crease-free appearance under my eyes, making them look brighter and smoother. There are a lot of concealers out there with specific formulations for skin types, like dry or oily skin, or for getting the most out of your application, including those that are best for contouring , and it can get confusing. Below are a few guidelines to keep in mind during your search for the best concealer for acne.

All e.l.f. products are free from phthalates, parabens, nonylphenol ethoxylates, triclosan, triclocarban, and hydroquinone. All skincare is also free from sulfates.The built in sponge means you can apply and blend the product without having to use any other sponge or brush - this makes it perfect for on the go. You twist the top to get the concealer out which is really useful as it means you only use as much or as little as you need. I often struggle to find a shade that actually matches my skin tone with most being far too pale and the limited range around my complexion often given an orange tinge to my look. Color-Correcting Concealer is used to neutralize specific skin tone issues like redness, dark under-eye circles, and dark spots. It comes in various shades including green, blue, peach, and yellow which all counteract a specific color concern. If needed, add a tiny bit more concealer on the underside of the pimple to minimize the appearance of a dark shadow. To heal breakouts fast, Dr. Lee’s top recommendation is to use spot treatment, like her BP Spot Treatment , especially at night, to keep them from spreading or scarring. It’s also important to integrate other pimple-busting products into your routine, including one of the best face masks for acne-prone skin , and even a pillowcase for acne to reduce zits and future breakouts. And for those with recurring pimples, there are plenty of solid skin care products for hormonal acne to get it under control.
