I purchased the Catrice True Skin based on your recommendation and it’s phenomenal. It replaced my Two Faced born this way as my holy grail. It looks so seamless and is the only concealer that doesn’t crease or look dry. It also lasts all day. Best recommendation!
Same here! We don't get many cruelty free brands in South Africa, apart from Catrice & Essence, so thank you for the recommendation. Also took your advice on the Essence powder foundation 🙌🏻🙏🏻💁🏻♀️
The NYX serum concealer is almost the best concealer ever if it would just have a little more coverage. I find if I let it sit for a minute I can get a little more coverage but it's still not enough other than that it is perfect. What I do that works amazing is mix it with a full coverage concealer especially if it's a dryer formula. It literally mixes beautifully with everything I've mixed it with. I get the coverage I need from the full concealer but the moisture I need from the NYX
I love that elf brightening concealer. It’s a HG for me for as I get a slightly too pink shade and use it as a colour corrector. As it’s so thin, it works better than any actual colour corrector I’ve tried to avoid too heavy a coverage and cakey look underneath my 46 year old eyes.
I completely agree! I buy the lightest cool shade and put a very thin layer just over the dark blue areas under my eyes. After it sets then I apply a regular concealer over the entire under eye area. It's an amazing brightener and color corrector. I am also 46!
The Kokie Be Bright concealer is my best color corrector formula, precisely because of that thinness. I apply a bit of their peach shade and it sits very inoffensively under any other concealer I layer on top of it.
On your recommendation I bought the Catrice concealer, I have now finished almost two of them!! My makeup collection is large so to finish one concealer is huge not to mention 2!!!
Thank you for doing this video! I am a concealer lover! 😍 I love the NYX Serum Concealer and now that we are headed into fall I am so excited to put it back into my everyday routine! I’m very surprised people are comparing it to the Kosas concealer! I own both and, like you, I don’t think they are dupes either. Both are great concealers, but not dupes.
I got the Ulta Full Coverage concealer during the fall 21 DoB and love it. It is the first concealer I have found that doesn't look horrid under my eyes. I have very dry, lined undereyes and this just makes them look better. I got that Nyx one too but didn't like it as much as the Ulta but it isn't anywhere near as bad as others I have tried. On a side note, I am so loving the filming background and lighting in your videos lately. I think it is very flattering!
I love the catrice true skin concealer, too. But also their liquid camouflage concealer, that one I have been using for years and have repurchased several times. It’s a bit more full coverage than the true skin one, but doesn’t look heavy or make my under-eyes look dry. Both are amazing and the best two concealer I’ve had so far.
I adore the liquid camo, I'm actually running empty on it and need to repurchase which I don't often have to do with my face products. So satisfying to see how well loved it is tho. I did try the catrice true skin foundation and really hated how heavy and cakey it looked. I tried to sheer it out but that experience makes me a bit dubious of the true skin concealer but everyone raves about it.
I'm so grateful for this video! NYX discontinued the HD concealer and I've been struggling to find one that's decent to replace it, I'm going to be looking into the Milani and/or Catrice options! 😊❤️
Frustrating in Europe we don't have so much to choose from. The Nyx one i mix it with foundations because it actually sets in my fine lines. I have to try the can't stop won't stop one tho. The Catrice one is my go to 🤗
I recently got the Ulta youthful glow concealer and omg it’s perfect. Light/Medium coverage and it doesn’t emphasize my 34 year old tired mom under eyes. It’s my new favorite and I’ve been searching for a while
The flower beauty light illusion concealer looks amazing under my eyes. I don’t set it and it looks great all day. Its my holy grail. It’s so interesting how makeup looks so different on everyone.
I was recently shopping for a replacement for my holy grail Revlon Candid concealer, sadly discontinued. I tried the L’Oréal Age Perfect Radiant concealer, and it is very nice. Not as good, but worth using until I find a better one. Thanks for the suggestions.
Hear me out on the flower beauty light illusion…. I’m super duper dry skinned and this is amazing as a foundation. But I cannot use it under my eyes! ❤
I never hear anyone talk about the Revlon Photo Ready Candid concealer from the drugstore but it is seriously one of my favorites! It doesn’t have a very good shade range, but it is a great concealer!
Nyx Can't Stop Won't Stop and the one from the Maybeline 24 hr line b4 they changed it to 25 hr are awesome. The Nyx can be thinned out and manipulated to achieve whatever coverage you desire. The Maybeline 24 hr one is thin but with high coverage.
You are missing out on the Essence camouflage healthy glow concealer and Catrice liquid camouflage concealer - they are soooooo much better than the matte one from Essence and the True skin one from Catrice.
The only two concealers I use right now are my Rare Beauty one (not drugstore) and my Catrice True Skin. The Catrice is lighter so I’ve been transitioning to this as my summer color starts fading. Both are excellent and replaced my Make Up Forever concealer.
I had the exact same experience with the Flower Beauty concealer. I was really excited to get it based on all the glowing reviews, but it just looked terrible terrible on my skin. I don’t have much dark circle so I only used a very little amount, but it looked so drying and accentuated dryness I didn’t know I had 😂 same experience for spot concealing. I’m glad to hear someone else has the same experience, because I always thought I just got a dud.
I love the NYX concealer and hate the Kosas. (I’m in my mid-60’s with dry and crepey undereyes.) I had to return the Catrice because of the scent. (I usually can’t use anything scented anywhere on my face, but around my eyes I can’t ever use scented products.) What I like about the ELF hydrating camo concealer is the range of colors. I get a better match with those than any other concealer I’ve tried. (I can’t afford the expensive ones.)
It's funny - I really liked the Light Illusion concealer but the NYX is probably my favorite drugstore concealer (and I do love that I can blend it out with moisturizer and wear it as a base product). I love a lot of elf products but I HATE both Camo Concealer formulas and I honestly don't love the Catrice Tru Skin (which was a major bummer). I think part of my issue is that as a 46 year old woman with dry under eyes that can get very crepey, I need something glowy, thin and moisturizing. Everything else either looks dry or it creases like crazy as soon as I put it on. For lighter more natural coverage, I also really like the Glossier stretch concealer and it's really not much more expensive than some of these drugstore options.
We clearly have the same taste in concealer! I only have Born This Way right now - a great deal for the size, certainly before Too Faced raised the price! - but I love the Milani, though I'm kind of between shades. I'd like to try the Catrice when I finish this behemoth. The e.l.f. Hydrating Camo looked so bad on me, with all the good reviews I felt like I was being gaslit! Flower didn't match me at ALL, so I can't say if it was the formula or poor match that made it look so bad. (Both?)
I had purchased the catrice true skin after seeing you recommend it as a similar product to the kosas revealer concealer. Unfortunately these two are just not similar and both perform differently on my skin. Sucks but it is what it is. But now I have a reason to repurchase my kosas concealer that’s a win
Thanks for the helpful review. Catrice has a store front on Amazon. Some brands have shade finders. Since I know what shade I'm in in Flower Beauty, I used its shade finder to help order a close shade from Catrice.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t like the Elf Camo Concealers. I have the same issue. I thought it was me because I’ve heard such great things about it. Makes me look so wrinkly! 😬
i like the elf camo concealer well enough as someone who only really wears makeup for events or to go out and get sweaty while dancing, so i think i’ll give the covergirl a shot. i mostly hate covergirl products that i’ve tried-across the product board-so i wonder if this will make me think of covergirl as an actual worthwhile company? 😂
I agree with you about the elf camo concealer & the cover girl concealer. I had both and LOVED the cover girl concealer I finished it and want to get another. The elf camo…. I used it a handful of times and do not like it at all for the same reasons as you. I’ll stick with the cover girl concealer lol
The one from the CoverGirl is really dry on me, but its a terrific eyeshadow primer ❤, and the e.l.f. camo with white cap it's really dry on mw too 😢, until now just 2 concealers work on me, the Too Faced multi sculpting, the Nyx serum ❤ I'm saving this video ❤ thank you for explaining a lot ❤
everyone hyped up the flower beauty concealer as illuminating and dewy. I bought it and it was sooo drying and aged me 10 years. So confused by the reviews
How long is the wear time for your favorite concealer recommendations? Where I live, my concealer melts in two minutes flat, even if I use a setting spray. The Milani 2 in 1 Foundation and Concealer (Remember that product?) was one of the worst culprits. But the Revlon Colorstay is too drying and very aging. Any suggestions or recommendations would be welcome. As usual, an outstanding and informative video! I don't always comment, but I appreciate your hard work. Your videos are always beautifully and professionally done! And don't worry about perfection when editing; we all make mistakes. Thanks, Kelly! Have an AWESOME weekend, everyone!!! ☺ Love and hugs from "L.A." !!!
I’ve only watched a couple of your videos before. But this one got you a new subscriber 🎉. I appreciate your honesty and how you stay on point. I feel that all of the products got a fair review. PS- which concealer are you wearing in this video?
Hey Kelly, what moisturizer do you use when you mix it with the nyx concealer? Do you think any moisturizer will work? I usually use a gel texture moisturizer.
Hallo! I agree. I have not tried Kokie, Catrice and Milani ones. I just threw away all the drugstore ones I had except new honest beauty one ( but it is 21$) elf was awful for my dry dry dry undereyes. thanks great review
Hi kelly! I appreciate this video. FYI, I've noticed that when I watch your videos on my phone and I go to the description box, the see more button is right next to the links to other videos that you mentioned in your current video. So if I click see more, to look at the full description box, I might accidentally X Out of the current video I'm watching and not able to watch it the full way through. That doesn't typically happen for me with other people's RU-vid videos. I hope that helps
Needed this video 💓💓💓💓! If you haven't could you do a high end version too, or maybe tell us your fave top 5 in a comment? 😊 Looking for full coverage but hydrating 🤔
I recently got the Nyx Bare With Me concealer and I'm liking it a bunch, but I'm wanting still to try the Catrice True Skin concealer. I can't remember though if you've mentioned it in other videos, but which shade do you use?
I bought the covergirl concealer based on your recommendation but unfortunately it just does not work for me! I've tried it every single way and it just looks atrocious and heavy under my eyes
