Beauty Product Reviews
Heavy duty? Not really.
I bought this on the good word of my friends who raved about Benefit, and their products as gold amongst humans. I believe I spent 20 dollars on a piece of repotted 'meh'.
I believe it works for those with little to minor blemishes. And I'm sure it works well on normal skin. Unfortunately for me, I have to be wary of how I use this product.
I have scarring and discoloration above my lip and this could barely cover that without heaping it on. I've tried all the primers, all the powders, and all the precautions to avoid that nasty cake face with this product. Praying that it would work for me in the end.
I had this on one day at work and I was so embarrassed. After my efforts to flawless application the concealer went patchey and wasn't so seamless. It was just awful. It seemed that since my face was so warm at work that day, it somehow melted the concealer in fine lines and around forming blemishes.
I now use this as a 'touch up' when out. I barely use this product to cover any significant redness or discoloration on my face. Kinda bummed with this concealer.
It's a great basic and 'touch up' concealer if you make a slight mistake in your brows or lipstick. But don't expect this to cover dark secrets and unsavory scars. If anything, 'cake face' should be your new legal name if you try to heap this on.
