So Sorry that I am getting this post up a little late today. Brooks finally went to bed so now I have time to write it. I have been thinking all day about what product I wanted to do for my Wednesday review. I have been using a lot of great stuff lately so it was hard to find just one thing that I wanted to share. We have been trying to get so much stuff done before we leave for vacation so I haven't had a lot of time to blog
Wednesday's weekly review is......
Make Up Forever- Ultra HD Concealer
This new concealer from Make Up Forever has been getting so much hype and for good reason..it really is the best. I used to use the MAC studio concealer for years and I still do use it on my face from time to time but I really don't have a whole lot of use for a true concealer anymore. I like to use concealer for my under eye area as a bit of a dark circle corrector and also as a brightener. I was finding that my MAC was a little to thick and would settle into my creases by the end of the day.
It took me a little bit to get my hands on this product. I was so so excited to try it and I wanted to make sure that I got it just right. I didn't want to buy it online without trying out the different shades in the store. Make Up Forever has the BEST shade range, I am always able to find my shade perfectly. Last week I went to the mall and had assistance picking my most perfect shade. The shade that I was color matched for was actually the shade I thought I was going to match into. I think I am finally figuring out my perfect shade with Make Up Forever.
My perfect shade was the R22 for light to medium skin tones, it is a little light on my skin but perfect for an under eye concealer and brightener! I hope this helps if any of you are looking at this product and trying to decide what shade to get. I would go with something that you think is a little lighter then your foundation if you intend to use it like I do.
I have been applying the product using a small beauty blender under my eye but honestly dotting it on and then using my finger to blend it in gave me the same results. I bought the little beauty blenders thinking that it would make a difference and they really don't but I will continue to use them with it so that I feel like I bought them for a purpose!
The formula is really pigmented so a little bit goes a long way, like all Make Up Forever products. All you need to do is squeeze out the tinniest amount and dab it on the area you plan to use the product. I like to do my foundation first and then touch up my under eye area. So far this new product has exceeded my expectations and once again deepened my love for Make Up Forever!
I am really really looking forward to getting the new sculpting palette!
