My Hydrating/Dewy Foundations

My skin goes through different phases all the time.. Sometimes it's normal.. Other times it's dry and dehydrated.. So I always feel that I need to switch up my foundations to accomdate my skin's needs.. Which is how I ended up with too many foundations in my colleciton.. That and my curiousity about some products =P
So here are my hydrating/dewy finish foundations...

Review: Bobbi Brown Extra Repair Foundation SPF25


My skin goes through phases.. Dry or very dry.. So finding the right kind of foundation can be a challenge as many foundations cling on to dry patches or accentuate certain problem areas..

So when Bobbi Brown came out with moisturizing foundation that provides good coverage, I just had to get my hands on it..



Product
- Easy to blend
- Medium Coverage
- Not the most light-weight foundation.. You can feel that you're wearing something on your face
- Good shade selection
- Must be powdered even if lightly to ensure longevity 
- Dewy finish
- Provides great hydration
- Contains sun protection, Shea Butter and Evening Primrose. It also claims to help replenish & strengthen skin over time

Application Method

I prefer using my finger tips to blend it into my skin, just like the way I would apply my moisturizer



Who Will Like This?
- People with dry skin, this is an amazing foundation!
- Anyone who is on the go and isn't too religious about moisturizing their face before foundation, this foundation is 3 in 1.. A moisturizer + a foundation + Sunscreen
- Anyone who cares enough to have ingredients that feed their skin in their foundation

Who Won't Like This?
- Anyone who has oily skin or T-zone as it will feel too greasy on their skin
- Anyone who prefers a matte or satin finish

My Final Thoughts: I really like the way this foundation feels on my skin and how easy it is to apply.. The key is to use a tiny bit at a time as to not pack the product on which can result in it feeling too heavy on the skin.. I especially love the dewy finish it gives my skin.. Makes it look healthy and glowy in a good way..


What type of foundations do you prefer to wear?

Review: Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick


If there's anything that Bobbi Brown does, it's that she delivers! Yes, I may have dissed her corrector & creamy concealer, which I did like but hated how it creased on me, I still think that Bobbi has a lot of great products to offer.. And her foundation stick is just that... great!



Product

- Creamy
- Blends beautifully
- Medium coverage
- Luminous finish
- MUST apply powder on top as it can get a bit greasy during the day
- Not very light-weight... It does feel like you're wearing foundaiton
- Good lasting power
- Photographs well
- Not much product for the price you're paying
- Travel friendly


Applicaiton

- I like applying this from the stick straight to my face then blend it out with my Sigma F80 Flat Kabuki Brush as it gives more coverage that way


Who Would Like This?

- People with Dry skin.. Combination skin types can get away with wearing this as well 
- Anyone who is looking for an easy way of applying foundation
- Anyone who is looking for a foundation that gives a beautiful finish to the skin as well as photograph well
- Those who love a dewy finish


Who Wouldn't Like This?

- People with VERY oily skin as it can feel a bit greasy
- Anyone who prefers a Matte finish


My Final Thoughts: I find that this is one of those foundations that look better after 15-30mins of wearing it when it really melts on the skin and gives it that beautifully glowy look.. Everytime I wear it, my sister asks me what I have on! Only issue I have with this is that it can feel a bit heavy on the skin.. But a great foundation to have for sure!


Would I Re-Purchase? Yes.



Have you tried the Bobbi Brown Stick Foundation or any other stick foundation before?

3 - De.Like.Ful

Time to share my likes for the moment...



Korres Wild Rose Foundation in WR4 - This foundation I almost added to my Blog Sale until I decided to give it one more try and I'm SO glad I did.. It's wonderful.. And the reason I didn't like it at first was because I applied it wrongly.. I found that the best way to apply this is using your fingers in a patting motion.. Gives a beautiful glowy finish with medium coverage.. This foundation also contains really good ingredients that help brighten your skin and make it look healthier. (Review)

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream - This is a really wonderful mild moisturizer that works on all skin types.. It kept my skin hydrated during the cold Scandinavian "summer" and is not greasy in any way.. The texture of this cream is very light and velvety leaving your skin feel matte yet hydrated..

Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base - I already raved about how wonderful this base is in a previous post (Review) but this gives an amazing glow to the face and makes foundation application that much more flawless..

Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Balm - This was an eye saver during my Scandinavian trip.. It kept my eye area hydrated ALL day.. It's a balm so it's very thick and the finish is glossy.. Best applied at night but I wore it during the day on my no makeup days.. Full review coming up soon!

MAC Pink Rebel Lustre Drops - I got this at a Lil Lady's Life blog sale.. I've been enjoying mixing this with my foundation to get that subtle sheen..

Benefit Girl Meets Pearl - This I have a small size of and I really love it.. Even more so than the MAC lustre drops as it adds that little bit of an extra glow.. The colour is a warm golden bronze and mixed with foundation, it gives you a beautiful beautiful glow..

Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch - I dab on this primer on places where I have enlarged pores only and it helps make them look less visible.. Been loving this especially on special occasions (Review)





Tarte Amazonian Blush in Tipsy - I have wanted to try this blush for the longest time! And when I did a swap with the sweetest Danielle from Bloomin' Beauty, she was kind enough to get me one.. I was SO excited when I received it and I feel in love with it straight away! Really amazing matte bright peach shade that does not budge all day.. Even in UAE's hot humid weather! I need me some more of these babies!

Dolce & Gabbana 'the animalier' Bronzer - I thought this would be just another gimmick bronzer.. But when I tried it on my cheeks I was amazed at how natural it looked and smoothly it applied! (Review)

Jack Black Grapefruit & Ginger Lip Balm - My lips have been really dry the past few months so I've been experimenting with a lot of lip balms.. And Danielle sent me this one as well and again.. It was love! Really wonderful and easy to apply.. Not too glossy yet extremely hydrating! Plus it contains SPF25 which is great!

Ole Henrikson Afrian Red Tea Exfoliating Lip Salvation - I got this at the airport in Copenhagen, and I loooove the tint it gives my lips.. Not sure how it exfoliates my lips but it makes them feel and look good so I'm happy!

MAC Constructivist Paint Pot - Been using this heaps as an eye shadow and along my lower lash line.. Love it's longevity and the shade is my kinda shade!

MAC Vanilla Pigment - My only MAC Pigment and at the moment, it's the only one I want! It's extremely versatile as it can be used as an eye shadow, cheek highlighter, on the center of the lips and so on.. It's called Vanilla but the shade is a frosty gold.. Really unique! (Review)





Burberry The Body Perfume - Ahhhh at the risk of sounding so cheesy, this scent makes me happy! As soon as I smelt it, I knew I just had to get it! I'm such a perfume junkie.. I wear perfume all the time and this had to come home with me..

Burt Bee's Cuticle Cream - Another product I received from Danielle! Everything she sent me, I loved! I've never had a cuticle cream.. And this, other than the fact that it smells amazing, works great on my dry cuticles.. It's a hard balm that when applied, doesn't have a glossy finish which makes it easy to wear during the day.. It has become a staple in my bag!

Laura Mercier Berry Lip Balm - I've been wearing lip balms instead of lipsticks lately and this gives my lips the right amount of hydration and colour.. Another staple in my bag!

Essie Van D'Go Nail Polish - Seriously how gorgeous is this shade?! I know it's such a summery shade but I just can't get enough of it!

Nail Station Wow Factor Polish - I love this shade too! And with Van D'go it's the most beautiful candy shop combo!





Ipad Games - Haha yes I'm that sad.. I've been obsessed with Plants vs. Zombies and Pictureka on the Ipad! And before you judge, you really gotta play them first =P

Choki Choki Chocolate Fingers - These are one of my childhood chocolates! I love them.. They're so yummy! And I have bought a whole box just for moi! =P

Snowboarding - Living in the Desert and Snowboarding? Haha yes! Thank God for Ski Dubai! The largest indoor ski! My sister and I have been taking up Snowboarding lessons and we've both been really enjoying it! Apart from the frequent booty falls, it's been real fun!



And that's pretty much all!



Peace

Review: Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base


My skin has been very dry lately for some reason which makes my makeup application that much harder because the foundation would cling to the dryness and I'd end up looking dull etc etc..

Although I've been moisturizing religiously, when it comes to applying my foundation, my skin still doesn't look glowy and fresh! That's when I decided to pick up the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base...




Product

- Rich formula but once applied it feel very light on the skin
- Gives a beautiful dewy finish without being greasy at all
- Absorbs quickly into the skin
- Oil Free
- Moisturizes really well due to the Shea Butter ingredient
- Full of great vitamins for the skin such as Vitamin A, C & E
- Smells Citrusy


Who Will Like This?

- Anyone who loves a subtle glow without the grease
- Anyone who cares about their skin being fed with vitamins


Who Won't Like This?

- Anyone who is sensitive to strong scents


Would I Re-Purchase? Definitely!


My Final Thoughts: I love that this is enriched with some many great ingredients that help protect and feed my skin.. Also, my makeup application looks so much better when I apply the Bobbi Brown Face Base.. I love that it doesn't feel greasy AT ALL! And the scent, for me, is so refreshing!

Possessions: Cream Eye Shadows

Since it's summer, cream products work so well as they're stay put better than powder eye shadows...


Here's my cream eye shadows collection...




So starting with the top row...


Makeup Forever Aqua Cream #13 - Lovely bright champaign shade with peach undertones but sets quickly so you gotta work fast with it.. I use this as an eye shadow but you can also use it as a highlighter..

Consistency: Light and smooth but can look patchy if you don't work fast with it


Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Enigma - I got this as a gift from my girl SJ and I really enjoy this product.. It makes a great eye shadow base.. However, I mostly use this for my under eye area and it eliminates my dark circles wonderfully.. Paler skin tones can also use this as a blush..

Consistency: Buttery smooth and blends so beautifully


MAC Constructivist Paint Pot - This is my first and only paint pot from MAC and I love this shade.. It looks dark but with a light hand, you can totally make this sheer.. It has tiny gold shimmers that aren't extremely obvious on the lids.. I wear this alone on the lids and on the lower lash line and it gives me such a lovely bronzey eye look..

Consistency: Not super smooth.. Has sort of like a dry smoothness texture if that makes sense.. Which why it can look a little patchy if you don't work fast with it..





Benefit Creaseless Cream/Liner Shadow in Flatter Me - I never wear pinks on my eye lids but love this shade! It’s so flattering and when sheered out it just gives a beautiful hint of colour to your lids.. Great for everyday..

Consistency: Smooth and easy to apply but can look blotchy


Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill Eye Shadow in #6 Nola - This is the weirdest eye shadow formula I have come across.. It’s like a pressed pigment.. You do get a little fall out but nothing too crazy.. The shade is so unique.. It’s a bronzed khaki and I have never seen anything like it.. Looks amazing when worn sheerly as it gives that beautiful shimmery wet look to your eyes..
Consistency: Buttery smooth and blends like a dream!

Benefit Creaseless Cream/Liner Shadow in Birthday Suit - I thought that is would be so similar to the MUFE #13 Aqua cream but that one a bright champaign and this is more muted.. Gives your lids a hint of colour.. Makes a great eye shadow base..
Consistency: Again, lovely but high risk of patchiness





Julie Hewitt Shimmy in Cleo - I did write a review on this here.. It’s a nice very sheer bronze that is super easy to wear..
Consistency - Almost like a shimmery hard gel that melts on your skin and blends nicely..

NARS Cream Shadow in Mykonos - This is a muted plum.. I was kinda disappointed in this.. The shade is nice but is not long lasting on me at all when worn alone so I tend to wear Benefit’s Flatter Me first then this on top when I wanna rock a plummy eye look..
Consistency - Slippery and blends well

Bobbie Brown in Black Pearl - This is the most glittery of them all.. And I’m talking chunks of glitter.. Great for the night time..  It is a great sheer shade.. And is the most long lasting out of all of them.. But the glitter in it is very dominating..
Consistency - You gotta really work your brush in pot to get the product out and it does not blend easily because of the amount of glitter in it


And Voila!

What are some of your favourite Cream Eye Shadows?

My Blush Collection 1: Nars, Illamasqua, Bobbi Brown, Chanel & Estee Lauder

As some of you may know by now.. I LOVE blush! It's my favourite makeup item.. I think it transforms the whole look completely... So here's evidence of my obsession with blush...




So allow me to break it down for you...


NARS have one of the best colour selection in blushes.. And a lot of them have some kinda shimmer running through them..

Torrid is a gorgeous peachy blush with gold shimmer..
Penny Lane I don't love so much.. But it does make an ok base for other blushes..
Outlaw I've had for about 3 years now.. It's a beautiful plummy pomegranate colour.. And it's very pigmented that you'll need the tiniest amount.. I think it's been discontinued though..



I luuuurve Illamasqua blushes.. Extremely pigmented.. So finely milled.. So smooth in application, not chalky and Matte which I prefer.. The colours they have are amazing..

Lover you all know I adore this light peach blush.. Very similar to MAC's Melba in colour but not in formula.. This is I find to be much better
Panic looks scary but I promise you that with a light hand, it looks so natural on.. Very similar to NARS Exhibit A and Sleek Scandalous but less orange.. Panic is more like brick red.. Beautiful!
Tremble is such a soft beautiful pink for Medium Skin tones..


Bobbi Brown falls into one of my favourite makeup brands.. Her blushes are pigmented and long-lasting..

Apricot is one of my favourite blushes.. So gorgeous and really brightens up your complexion.. 
Pot Rouge Pale Pink is lovely formula.. Gives you that beautiful dewy look and it can be used on the lips too.. 
Desert Pink is a subtle dusty rose.. Really good if you're working a smokey eye..  


These are all pretty sheer.. So you gotta pack the product on to get the colour showing which makes me hesitate when buying any blushes from these two brands.. But they're still so gorgeous

Chanel Espiegle was a limited edition light peachy blush with a little bit of fine shimmer to it.. The shimmer doesn't show up that much on the cheeks which is why I loved it..
Estee Lauder Peach Nuance - This is a pinker version of Illamasqua's Lover.. It is really gorgeous on and it's Matte.. 
Chanel Caprice - I got this a long time ago.. Not sure if they still sell it.. But I love this colour too.. Gives me a beautiful summery look without the bronzer..



Stay tuned for part 2 ;)

If I Were To Pick One... Eye Shadow

So I decided to do a series called...


If I Were To Pick One...


Now this is a challenge for alllll makeup lovers out there.. Basically what I'm going to do is if I had to pick ONE make up item from each category (Foundation, Blush, Bronzer, Eye Shadow etc.) which one would it be.. And I'll talk about why of course..


So starting with Eye Shadow..


If I Were To Pick One Eye Shadow... It would be:




This colour is soooo boring in the pan.. Nothing special at all.. It's a matte colour.. A mixture of brown and a tiny bit of grey.. But it is the PERFECT colour for contouring the eyes and adding a bit of a shadow along the lower lashline for a subtle smokey look.. It's really stunning and I can see it working for all skin tones..

Now I know that even in the swatch it looks like nothing special.. But for those who want a subtle definition for their crease for an everyday natural look.. This is the one shadow for you.. 

I really do like Bobbi Brown eye shadows more than MAC ones as they are way more pigmented and easier to blend.. Yah they're more on the pricey side but for what you're getting, they are worth it.. 




What would your One Eye Shadow pick be?

Skincare Prodcuts: Eye Creams


Are eye creams essential? I don't know.. But I like using them for prevention purposes..

Now many people say that you could just use your face moisturizer for your under eye area.. If it's good enough for your face, it must be good enough for you eye.. And I'm ok with that.. But sometimes, I just want a lil something extra for that delicate area under my eyes..

So here's my journey with eye creams..




This good lookin bottle came with so many promises. "A powerful time-fighting" says Shisedo. It claims to "reduce the appearance of wrinkles, dark circles, and dullness, as it effectively hydrates and energizes skin".

Well did it? Not at all. Only thing I got from this light-weight eye cream was the moisture and it wasn't even a very long lasting moisturizer. This was a total waste of money for me.

Fail.




Because I like shiseido a lot.. I wanted to give their eye cream line another chance.. So I went out and bought this one. Now this is marketed as an anti-dark treatment.. So it's meant to brighten the eye area and prevent dark circles from appearing..

The only brightening I got from this was from the fact that the actual cream was white in colour with light relfective properties.. I saw no changes in my dark circles at all.. But it did moisturize better than the bio-performance eye cream.

Fail.






This is also another Japanese brand that I love. Kanebo has really great products which I have tried in the past and loved. So I thought, their eye cream will probably be just as good. So I picked this tiny yet expensive eye contour balm up. It promises to get rid of dullness, puffiness, fine lines, dark circles and wrinkles.

This beautiful creamy light weight formula moisturized my eye area beautifully.. But that's all it did.. And I was looking for something more than just moisture! I hoped it would reduce my fine lines and dark circles.. But it didn't..

Fail.






I went into Bobbi Brown to check out their Extra Hydrating Eye Cream.. It had a nice texture to it.. Very hydrating.. But the MUA recommended this for me.. This is more hydrating because it's a balm.. And at that time, my eye area was going through a very drying phase.. This product claims to fight puffiness, reduce fine lines, dry line as well as soothe and protect the skin because of the vitamins and plant extracts it contains.

Bobbi Brown suggests that this be used at night time only.. But I use it night and day.. The formula is different from any eye cream or balm I have come across as it is actually a balm balm! Not a cream like balm. So you have to really rub your fingers on the product to melt before applying it to the eye area.. Even then you have to be very careful with the application as it's not creamy enough to slide on..

Now I like this the most out of the eye creams I have used so far. It keeps my eye area hydrated all day long.. It can feel a little sticky at first but it goes away as the product sinks in.. And I had no problems using this as a base for my concealer.. My dryness is gone so I'm happy about that..

Would I recommend this for anyone? Hmm I'd say try it out at the store first.. Coz it ain't for everyone..

Win. (For me.. For now)


General Thot: It really bugs me that most eye creams expire 6 months after opening them.. With some eye creams, it's almost impossible to finish the whole thing in 6 months! I had to throw away one of the ones I had coz it was over 6 months.. And there was still a fair bit of product left. Companies should try to make eye creams last a lil longer as you only use a lil bit of it OR they should just sell less product for cheaper..


Eye Creams I wanna try:

Ren Lipovector Smoothing Eye Contour Cream
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye
SkinCeuticals Eye Balm



Which eye creams were a fail/win for you?

Cream Blushes

So let's talk about my favourite topic.. BLUSH!

I thought I'd start with cream blushes as my cream blush collection isn't as big as the powder blush collection..

So let us begin....




I keep forgetting that I have this blush.. It's a gorgeous peach.. Applies sheerly but is definitely buildable.. Gives such a nice flush to the face.. It has tiny tiny gold shimmer that is very subtle when applied to the cheeks.. It is not dewy but not completely matte either..

Swatch:


When I apply this on its on, it doesn't stay on for long on my cheeks.. But if you apply a nice light peach (e.g. NYX Peach or Illamasqua Lover) or any pink powder blush on op, it makes your powder blush pop! So I'd use this as a base for my powder blush.


This is such a lovely barbie pink colour.. It's not as sheer as the Shiseido one but is not scary to work with either.. It gives your cheeks that dewy look without the sticky feeling.. The formula is so easy to blend and it lasts a fairly long on your cheeks..

Swatch:


There are so many other shades that are really beautiful.. I would recommend this for those who want to start with cream blushes..



When I used this the 1st time.. I was in love.. The formula is so light and blends easily.. It gives your cheeks a nice rosey coraly matte flush which I like as it looks very natural.. This did not stay put as long as I expected it to but it did pretty well..

Swatch:

I highly reccomend this product for those who like a matte flushed cheek.. I'm thinking of grabbing a few more of these.. The colour range available is stunning!


I had such high hopes for this cream blush but it was such a disappointment.. NARS powder blushes are so amazingly pigmented and long-lasting.. This was the total opposite.. The formula is extremely light that you need to pack the product on to get the colour to show on your skin (well on my skin tone at least - NC25-30)

Swatch:


The colour is really pretty and it gives a lovely glow to the cheeks.. So I guess I'll be using this as a base for better pigmented powder blushes..




Another disappointment from NARS.. I've heard such great things about NARS Multiples and I have been wanting NARS Orgasm Blush for the longest time.. So when I saw this, I thought PERFECTION! Just what I'm looking for.. My excitement however soon disappeared when I applied this on my cheeks.. The colour barely showed up on my skin and I had to rub such a huge amount of product to get the colour pay off.. The formula is exactly like the NARS cream blush.. It feels oily a lil so I did not expect it to stay on for long..

Swatch:


So since these don't work so well on my cheeks.. I only use them as eye shadows.. And the colours are really amazing for eye shadows.. But then again.. They don't stay on for that long unless you have a good primer underneath.. NARS should really look into changing the formula of their cream blushes..





I don't even think that this product needs an explanation.. I'm sure most of you have this or have read reviews about it.. I was a little hesitant before purchasing this cream blush.. I thought it might be sticky and just too dewy.. But oh was I wrong.. This is such a beautiful cream blush.. It beats MAC's powder blushes hands down.. Gives such a glow and the colour is one that suits all.. It also makes a great blush base for any powder blushes.. I'm so disappointed that MAC has discontinued these.. Luckily I got mine before it's too late =P





I used this a long time ago when I was a teenager and when I came across it again one time, I just had to repurchase.. This is the only VERY long lasting blush I came across.. It gives your cheeks such a beautiful rosey tint.. Applies lightly at first.. But is surely buildable.. The only reason I don't wear this as much as I would like to is coz of the streakiness that may come with this product if not applied VERY carefully.. This stains your cheeks within seconds of application so you have to work VERY fast with it.. Also, I really don't like the nail polish brush type of application.. Wish it came in different packaging AND in various shades too.. But still a really great blush for those who do not like to reapply.. oh and it smells like rose water..


Last but definitely not least....




Now these were such a surprise.. But in a very good way.. They're sooo creamy and melt into your skin like a dream.. Glow is beautiful pink with no shimmer.. I thought it would be similar to MAC Ladyblush but it's brighter.. It's actually the reason why I did not purchase MAC's Posey Cream Blush as I thought it was very similar to it..

Golden on the other hand is a peachy beige with gold shimmers.. Makes an amazing highlighter and a perfect base for bronzers.. I love this colour.. When worn by itself it gives your cheeks the loveliest healthy glow.. If you're looking to get NYX cream blushes, you must try Golden.. Especially now that summer is comin up..

Swatch:



The formula of these cream blushes is the best I've come across.. They're so much better than MAC's Blush Cremes and a lot more pigmented too.. So you need only a tiny bit to get a really good colour pay off.. These give your cheeks a nice dewiness without the stickiness.. NYX Cream Blushes honestly surprised me..



And that is the end of my Cream Blush review... I really wanna try Illamasqua's cream blushes so I'll get my hands on those as soon as I can..



Do you wear cream blushes? If so, what are your favourites?

Bobbi Brown: Corrector & Concealer Kit

I love Bobbi Brown. I think they have many products that are underrated and are sooo much better than other makeup brands such as MAC.

But this post is about....


L-R: Corrector, Concealer Kit

I've heard and read soooo many great things about these. So when I finally decided to pass by the Bobbi Brown store, I thought I might as well check them out.. I got the MUA to try it out on me. At first I really did not understand why I need a corrector.. I thought this lady is just tryna sell me more products.. So I asked her to do one eye with the Corrector and Concealer and the other eye with just the Concealer.

And wow lemme tell you.. There was a huge difference between both eyes.. The one that had the corrector underneath the concealer looked brighter and fresh.. While with the other eye, I could still see my dark circles and it looked a lil ashy..

I loved how the combination looked so I was sold! I got the Corrector in Bisque and the Concealer Kit in Warm Natural

And today the Corrector is actually my favourite and I use it a lot more than the concealer.. It does a really good job in covering my dark circles because of the Peachy undertone which helps eliminate the blueish greyish rings around my eyes.. It is so creamy and smooth when applied to the under eye area.. And the small pot surprisingly lasts a long time as you only need a little bit.. 

As for the Concealer Kit.. It comes with the concealer on top and a pale yellow loose powder at the bottom..  The concealer is the same consistency as the corrector so it also applies nicely.. But the powder.. Not so great.. If I do apply it on top it makes my under eye look so cakey! So I tend to ignore that step.. 


Now as lovely as these Bobbi Brown Corrector and Concealer Kit are.. I am still on the hunt for a good concealer... Why?


Coz these CREASE LIKE CRAAAZY ON ME!!!!!!

The Bobbi Brown MUA said that I HAVE to buy their hydrating eye cream if I didn't want the creasing.. But I mean come oooon.. I use an eye cream underneath and it still CREASES!!! I don't need to buy THEIR eye cream to make it work.. And since they don't give samples.. What if it doesn't work?! And that eye cream ain't cheap I tell ya..

A few minutes after I apply it, it creases.. So I take my ring finger and I gently tap my under eye area.. Then during the day.. More creasing! I mean seriously! I don't wanna have to worry about my concealer when I'm out.. I tried powdering it with the powder it comes with and like I said earlier.. Cakey.. I used other powders.. Still not a good look.. 

So I'm still gonna use the corrector but I'm on the hunt for a concealer that covers well without the creasing... 


Do you guys have the same problem with this or any other Concealer? And what concealer is workin for you?
