REVIEW: IT COSMETICS BYE BYE UNDER EYE CONCEALER

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

OILY SKIN- NOT THE BEST CONCEALER FOR YOU..IT LOOKS GREASY AND TENDS TO CREASE, SO IF YOU HAVE FINE LINES AND OILY SKIN, PASS ON THIS ONE.

DRY OR COMBINATION SKIN- THIS JUST MIGHT BE YOUR HOLY GRAIL, ITS A BIT PRICEY BUT A LITTLE REALLY DOES GO A LONG WAY!! IF YOU HAVE FINE LINES IT MIGHT NOT CREASE FOR YOU.

Eye Kabuki & Concealers from Everyday Minerals

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

http://ladylostris.blogspot.com/2008/09/my-pressed-everyday-minerals.html

Items shown: All Everyday Minerals
~Eye Kabuki Brush
~Concealers in:
Sunlight (pressed in elf compact)
Mint (pressed in elf compact)
Spring (pressed in elf compact)
Dark Brown Brow (NOT a concealer; pressed in elf compact)
Peach
Bisque
Intensive Medium

[I used to have Intensive Light but that went on way too white on me so I threw it out because I needed the jar. I'm a Golden Medium Intensive under the Olive category, BTW. But lately I've been doing a half and half mixture of that with Olive Medium Intensive. Ya!]

Note: I got the pans from my empty palette from Coastal Scents. At the end of one of my other videos, I show how I pressed my loose powders in slideshow form:

| Tutorial: How I Conceal My Under Eye Area |

Saturday, June 12th, 2010

http://www.christianadivine.blogspot.com

My blog post about this tutorial includes more in depth information and can be found here: http://christianadivine.blogspot.com/2010/05/video-tutorial-how-i-conceal-my-under.html

Products Used in This Tutorial:
.Merlot Grape Seed Eye Cream
.ELF Mineral Face Primer (silicone based)
.Foundation (whatever foundation you use personally will work)
.Graftobian HD Creme Concealer in “Soft Orange” (depending on what color your under eye circles are, a peach, yellow, or orange color correcting concealer will work)
.MAC Studio Finish Concealer in “NC30″ (again, depends on your personal skin color. Get a concealer that is SLIGHTLY lighter than your actual skin tone and also reflects lighter when flash is used)
.Ben Nye Neutral Set (VERY finely milled setting powder that doesn’t cake)
.MAC 224 (this is the only thing I use my MAC 224 for, and it actually does a pretty good job at concealing the under eye area)

This is always how I conceal my under eye area, except in the video I didn’t moisturizer properly before applying my makeup so the outcome isn’t as nice as it usually is when done properly. =P Hehe. I didn’t moisturize because I’m taking the makeup off right after; I feel like going bare faced today. =P

So that’s all. I hope this helps you guys out. To see how effective this method is, check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QKIXexkDRg

It shows you how discolored my under eye area is (in the beginning of the video) and then fast forward to the end. I’ve already concealed my under eye area in the end of the video. Big difference right!? =P

Concealing (very) dark circles & Concealer reviews

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

***

Products used:
Gabriel Color Concealer in Light
Everyday Minerals Concealer in Intensive Light (now called Fair)
Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder in 2

Products reviewed:
Everyday Minerals Multi-Tasking Concealer
Everyday Minerals Peach Color Corrector
Mary Kay Facial Highlighting Pen in 2
Revlon ColorStay UnderEye Concealer in Light
L’Oreal Airwear Brightener
Neutrogena 3 in 1 Concealer for Eyes in Light
Make Up Forever Lift Concealer in 3
Laura Mercier Secret Concealer in 1
Urban Decay 24/7 Concealer Pencil in CIA

A couple of Benefit undereye products I’ve tried:
EyeBright – Definitely lives up to it’s name, but I wouldn’t recommend using it by itself unless you’re only using a little bit. It tends to change your dark circles from a dark purple to a bright lavender shade. It can work under a concealer, but once again, use it sheerly.
Erase Paste – Bought this, used it a few times, and returned it. I really, really wanted to love this product… it sounded so good. It was a really nice formula and color, but as usual, it creased too much (on me).
