NYX HD Concealer
I was tired of using a concealer that was slightly too dark so I picked up the NYX HD Photogenic Concealer in CW 02.
It actually turned out to be slightly too light for me, of course, but I decided to keep it anyway. It has a doe foot applicator, which I was happy with because it made for an easier application than the squeeze tube one I had been using. It has a creamy texture and is not too heavy or oily feeling. It's pretty pigmented, as most NYX products are, and it blended out well.
I know you can tell there's a complaint coming, so here it is...it didn't last long at all before it was empty. It was about $6, which isn't bad for a concealer, but I would expect it to last longer than 3 weeks max. It has .11 oz (3g) of product and that actually isn't a lot. Don't let the packaging fool you- just because it looks big, doesn't mean it's full of product!
Overall, I do think it's a nice concealer. It's pigmented, easy to apply and there is a large color range. I might buy it again in the future and just get a different shade, we'll see!
My concealer hunt will continue I suppose. Have you tried this one? What should I try next?
Woah that's so quick to run out for a concealer! Hm at least it was a good product, but I would like something more long lasting too!x

I know! Me too....
DeleteI just got this concealer and really like it. I'm a little disappointed to hear that it didn't last that long as it's not the easiest thing for me to get my hands on.

It was a really nice concealer, but yeah, for me it ran out really quickly and it wasn't like I was concealing a lot or mixing it with foundation or even trying to use it as a foundation, it just didn't last long!
DeleteI agree - that ran out fast! But I do love NYX brand. I havent tried this yet!

It is a great brand and at an affordable price! :)
DeleteIt sounds great but how bad that it ran out so fast.

*Sighhhh* right?? I couldn't believe it when no more product was coming out! haha
Delete3 weeks? wow! I thought it would have lasted at least a month! I might try it out, but I'm not a fan of doe foot applicators because it can get unsanitary, but it sounds pretty good!

I know, I thought so too! That is true, but it's less messy than other types and sometimes I gotta go with what's convenient haha :)
DeleteThis seems like an okay concealer. But I'm with you, should deff last longer ! Think I will skip trying this one! Great review! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie! :)
DeleteI really like the maybelline fit me concealer and the loreal true match concealer.

I've had the loreal true match and I do remember liking that one. I haven't tried the fit me concealer though! I did actually just buy the maybelline superstay I think it's called and I've been enjoying it so far :)
DeleteThanks for the review. I've had good luck with NYX products so far.
