you're welcome! omg thanks re: the eyeliner. I was bummed because it was looking jet black UNTIL I blended and when I saw it on camera I thought, "ok wow, that's definitely more on the green side." It helped me with my eyeliner review lol 💜
Fitglow concealer was my holy grail for years because of the substantial consistency and reliable long lasting coverage. Iris & Romeo is so good, a definite keeper. In my opinion, adding skincare to makeup is just gimmicky. The trace amount of skincare in makeup products is not enough to make an actual difference. Are the companies expecting us to substitute our actual skincare? Just don’t add harmful ingredients and stay in your own lane. And hello to beautiful Blue! Those eyes! ❤
Blue says hello back! 💜 I’m in full agreement with the added skincare being in everything for those of us that use multiple products. Too much of a good thing.
I have dry mature under eyes and found Saie to beat out Haus labs. I love both and yes, I think the shade makes a difference. Saie wears all day, I can't complain. Haus is good too. Finding a good concealer is difficult for me at 63 but, Saie works.
Thanks for sharing! Both solid options. I haven't reached for Haus Labs lately, but it was impressive. A bit on the thicker side for me, but wow the brightening!
The Fitglow concealer is my holy grail but it’s very expensive. How does that concealer compare to this one as well as other more affordable concealers you’ve tried?
the Fitglow is creamier, less slick in my opinion and give solid brightness that doesn't fade like the Saie did when set. As for other concealers, plenty of reviews on YT for them and more on the site here: www.thestyleshaker.com/product-reviews/category/concealers. It really just depends on what you're looking for and the budget!
I love the Saie. I'm allergic to propylene glycol and phenoxyethanol which are in lots of concealers, so the only 2 I have right now are Saie and Haus Labs. I like the Saie better than the Haus Labs. I bought it primarily for covering spots, but I use under my eyes too and haven't had any major issues. I put a little Hourglass Veil powder or Pat Mcgrath undereye powder under my eyes, too.
I can’t say I have a holy grail concealer (if it even exists). I’m using the Rituel de Fille concealer and liking it. I do want to order the Iris & Romeo to try. I’ve found that there’s no concealer that won’t crease under my eyes so I gave up on that years ago. I prefer a matte under eye but I only powder the darkest arc under my eye and not all the way up to the lash line. If I do I just end up with dry crepey under eyes. I did use the Kjaer Weis under eye cream. I made it more than halfway thru the pot before I realized that it was giving me milia so I’m not using that anymore. Dealing with milia is such a pain, literally lol.
thanks for sharing this- yes, agree, most of them naturally crease. It's just the way it is most of the time, even with Iris & Romeo (very little creasing for me, but the formula is still separating too soon). Good powder trick to know, and oh no re: the KW balm. It's on the thicker side so I could see milia being an issue for some.
I think it may crease a bit and settle- most will, but the silky feel of this is a bit more prone to that I'd think. If someone else has a different experience, please share! 💜
