Cover those blemishes...

My skin have been pretty good to me for the last few months and for that reason I didn't have to look for any good concealer, that will really cover and stay put for whole day. Well, until few weeks back, when I suddenly started breaking out (well, I know now why…) and I was forced to look into a good concealer that will cover my blemishes without looking too heavy, but still cover pretty well. 

I had the Bobbi Brown Creamy concealer in my collection for a while, but I don't know for what reason I always thought it is rather for under eye area (actually it is recommended for eyes on Bobbi Brown's website) which as didn't work for me that great (too heavy, creases….), I just left it in my stash. 

As I am trying not to purchase too many unnecessary makeup products, I went to look for solution to make my skin more flawless in my current makeup collection. Anyways, I am obviously talking too much, but long story short, I absolutely love the Bobbi Brown creamy concealer for covering my blemishes. 

Either I am using Urban Decay brush (which I got with Naked palette) or use my finger (with finger I warm up the concealer a little in the pan and then pat where I need to) and then just use my RealTechniques sponge to finish it off. 

I highly recommend this concealer to cover redness, blemishes or small scarring.

It retails for £18.50 and you can check Bobbi Brown's website for more details here.

NEW Origins Plantscription anti-ageing concealer

I am not having wrinkles yet, but I find that anti-ageing concealers in general help to smooth appearance of my skin-if it is a blemish, scar or dry skin, anti-ageing concealers work a little bit better that normal drying formulas on my skin. 

As I was already on the explore of Origins, so I thought why not try their concealer. 

From Origins website: 

"98% felt it left a smoother appearance.
√ 89% felt it softened the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

This anti-ageing concealer with Anogeissus helps cover dark circles plus reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and flaws instantly. And the creamy coverage effortlessly floats over skin without creasing, caking or sticking. Long-wearing.

Ophthalmologist tested."

Application is very smooth. I find that when I am trying to blend it, the best way is to tap with fingers rather than smoothing it around area as it kind of disappears in that way;)

Comes in 6 shades, I am owning the 01 fair, which I love to apply before my foundation, so it smoothes out, evens out the skintone and after that I don't need to use as much foundation:)

Retails for £16.
