Huda Beauty The Overachiever High Coverage Concealer - Review

Huda Beauty really needs no introduction - I mean pretty much all her products sell like hot cakes the minute they launch, no matter what the reviews. Hence, I'm gonna dive straight into the review. Huda's concealer was among her new releases and I was lucky to get hold of it during the sale season.

NARS Soft Matte Complete Concealer in Ginger - Review

Everyone and their mother is a big fan of the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. This concealer has been loved and raved by all and unfortunately, it didn't work too well for me and I ended up not liking it. However, their new Soft Matte Concealer promised full-coverage and an ultra-light-weight cream formula which blurs imperfections leaving the skin with a soft-matte, natural-looking finish. The reviews on this new concealer were quite positive with a lot of bloggers speaking highly of this, but I was a little hesitant given my experience with the Radiant Creamy Concealer. Until my friend tried this in store and convinced me to add this to my cart during the Sephora Spring Sale.

tarte Shape Tape Contour Concealer - Review

When tarte released this concealer, it was immediately sold out. Over the course of the next few months, it was restocked but constantly sold out. I tried many times to get hold of it but failed, until a friend's brother travelled to the States and got it for me from Ulta. I think now it is available on the website but if you want it, better to get it sooner than regret later.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Ginger - Review

I am a NARS person! I love the brand. Their products and packaging scream class and elegance which is why I am attracted to this brand. Moreso, all products that I have tried from the brand have been hits which is why the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer was on my radar for a long time. Plus it is a cult classic. 

However, the product didn't blow me away the way I thought it would. While it does a good job at covering my dark circles without an orange corrector, it didn't give my undereye the look I wanted, even with a setting powder. I'm not sure if it was the shade or undertone more than the formula but I felt that it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The formula is creamy and blends easily but is not pigmented enough. It looks good for the first 6 to 8 hours, but after that, it begins to crease and settle into the fine lines.

Considering my eyes are deep-set and I have strong dark circles, thanks to all the late nights, I really need to work on my undereye to look bright and awake. However, this product, unfortunately, did not do that for me and I prefer my MAC Prolongwear Concealer over this.

The Nars Creamy Concealers comes in a typical rectangular tube with a doe foot applicator. 

I was very excited about getting this concealer but sadly the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer and I haven't gelled very well. It is quite possible that it's just me because everyone continues to rave about it. Nonetheless, I wouldn't be repurchasing it and I would suggest everyone to try it out at their own risk (and money).

Love.

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NW 20 - Review

Battling dark circles and having a brighter under eye has become my makeup goal and while I should be concentrating on fixing this problem by eating better and sleeping like a normal person, I'd rather use the weapons of makeup to try and fix this. Ever since I discovered the power of a concealer, there is rarely a day that I go without it and I have quite a variety of concealers in my collection from high-end to drugstore. After reading rave reviews on the MAC Pro Longwear Concealer, I decided that I needed to get my hands on this asap. I landed at Al Fatah at Lahore only to discover that they did not have NC 20 available. But of course the makeup craving got the better of me and 10 minutes later I walked out with NW 25.

Mini Haul Post & Store Review

I know that I promised myself that I will not be doing any hauling until Black Friday but there were a few spring sales going on different websites and I couldn't resist the amazing prices.
