favorite - make up for ever full cover concealer


i love talking about products that i know and love, rather than a new product that may seem to be a favorite at the time, or i might think will a favorite and turns out to just be a passing phase.
tried and true products are few and far between, but when you have them, they're always a staple in your makeup routine.

make up for ever's full cover concealer has become that for me. if you've followed my blog for a while, you'll know i went forever looking for a concealer and came up empty handed after many attempts. this has gone on for years, but i've settled on something and have yet to find anything better.

this concealer means business. it's heavy duty, yet still manages to not look and feel heavy on the skin. you only need a little and you cover so much. there's a great color range. my color, #4 is a nice yellow tone that works wonders not only on my blemishes, uneven spots, and the big hit: under my eyes.

it's waterproof and stays on. it blends well but once it's on, it doesn't get all crease-y under the eyes or fade away after a few minutes.

i'd definitely recommend this for those with oily skin, or for anyone who has stubborn spots that nothing else will cover.

i'll be honest and tell you that i feel as though when i put this on i can still see a little bit of my under eye color still show through, but i'm beginning to think that it might just be me, because they never show up in photos.

i don't believe it's marketed to be used under the eyes because it is a drier concealer compared to those that are made to be put under the eye, but i find any of the creamy ones crease in a few minutes on me, regardless of how much i set them with powder. this stuff i just set and it stays so so well. be careful though, it is still possible to overdo how much you put on and make it look a bit cakey. you really don't need much to cover a lot.

i think anyone who's been hunting for concealers should definitely try this stuff out next time you're at sephora. it's not cheap so ask for a sample before you commit (although sephora does have a fabulous return policy if it really doesn't work for you).

i love this stuff and although i never say never, i don't know if i'll ever find anything to replace it. unless some sort of miracle product comes along ;)

*disclaimer: all items have been purchased by myself, i have not received any free items or money for this review/post.
