Review: Hard Candy Glamoflauge Concealer

Hello Beauties! Today I will be doing a quick review on a concealer that has blown my mind recently. Personally, I believe that every girl should own a really great concealer with the whole package. Great coverage, great pigmentation, a great color selection, in short, the "perfect" product. And while I also believe that such a thing does not exist, the minute I tried out this product, I thought twice about that.

The Good, the Bad, and the Glamorous

The Good:
Money, money, money...
This product was honestly just something I picked up at Walmart when I was looking in the makeup section, and because I knew it was a drugstore product, I sort of didn't look at the price. However after the use of this product, I found out that is only costs $6, which is amazing for such a good quality product!

Great for Fair Skin tones!
I am a person with a very very fair complexion, so it is often difficult to find a concealer and or foundation that is light enough for my skin tone. This concealer comes in three shades: Ultra light, Medium, and Tan. Many times, I have tried out concealers that claim to be "light" and then come off on my skin as more of a tan! I have also tried concealers that come off on my skin light, and then about an hour later turn orange, so of course I am always skeptical of the actual color of the product beforehand. But I can assure you that when I tried this, I fell in love with it! It conceals very well and the ultra light shade is great for those of you girls out there with fair skin like me! It was indeed ultra light when I put it on my skin, and unlike many concealers out there (high end brands included) it stayed that way.


The Bad:
Alas, I did find some flaws with this otherwise flawless product.
The Wear
It will wear off throughout the day. Although the formula is pigmented, and will cover pretty much anything, this did wear off about midday for me even though I set it with translucent powder :(

Not an under-eye concealer
This concealer is amazing for blemishes, and any other discoloration on the face...besides the under-eyes. Yep, I'm sorry but compared to some other concealers, this is a miss for me in this department. I've been using a concealer by MAC for my under-eyes, their "Prolong-wear Concealer", and since I've started using that, nothing compares to it for the under-eyes for me!

The Glamorous:
The Packaging~SO cute
I love love LOVE the packaging and the name of this product. Glamoflauge is by far the CUTEST concealer name ever created :)

Yours to the glitter end,
Chloe :)
