I’ve had this post drafted now for several days unable to get to it.  I got to finish it last night.  Along with a bag of Almond M&M.

 

 

Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer ($28) isn’t new. Voted Allure’s best concealer in 2009 and 2010, it’s one of those beauty product that can easily become a staple for anyone in need of disguising skin freak outs.

1 pan 2 shades

The concealer comes in a pan with 2 different shades. One with yellow undertone the other pink.  This enable the right match.

Super thick and dense it’s brilliant on spots and blemishes.  Use a concealer brush to pick up some of each shade and blend them on the back of your hand. Apply the concealer right on the spot where it’s needed and press with a stippling motion.

When concealing pimples I like to use very small brushes, so that the concealer is completely isolated.

I also used Secret Camouflage recently on a few clients with Melasma.  I first applied a light layer of foundation, then used the method above to cover the affected area.  It makes the darkeness pretty much dissapear. Rather impressive.

No likey (at all) as an under eye concealer

Apparently some people use this as under eye concealer and rave about it.  I tried several times and absolutely hated the outcome. It’s not creamy enough to spread and make the eye area all crinkly and hideous looking. Don’t waste your time.
