Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Concealer (C8)

Hi again!

Here is a concealer swatch for you!

It is a full coverage concealer with a matte finish. It has got a doe foot applicator (that reminds me of Tarte Shape Tape Concealer) which gets way too much product, so it immediately settles into my fine lines if I am not careful enough.

If you apply the tiniest amount and you set it with powder, it will last 4/5 hours without settling into your fine lines. I have got dry under eyes and I find that it slightly accentuates my flaws and it doesn't cover that much, compared to other concealers I own. Hmm, not impressed. Very affordable, though.

Maybelline Instant Anti-Age Concealer (02 Nude and 06 Sand)

Hi guys!

Just a quick swatch of one of the best concealers I have used during 2020 - Maybelline Instant Anti-age! Sand 07 is my winter shade and Nude 02 is my summer one.

Please bear in mind I have got very dark under eye circles and I don't have the time to mix an orange one and a lighter one in the morning. Despite using it on its own, I would say it has got a medium coverage. 

If I compare it to MAC Pro longwear concealer, it is not as drying (and not super full coverage as well) but it doesn't last as long.

After 8 hours of wear it doesn't disappear, you can tell you have been wearing it the whole day because it starts fading a bit, nothing major anyway! :) You still have some coverage.

I will definitely keep purchasing it because of its great quality, beacuse it is anti-age and because it is reasonably priced.

Actually, I noticed I prefer using the Maybelline instant anti-age during the week (especially during the winter) because it is less drying than the MAC one. I tend to reach for the MAC pro longwear during the weekend, especially if I am going out - obviously this doesn't apply to these last 9 months of Covid-19 pandemic! 

Hope this helps!

Swatches > Mineral make-up (Elemental Beauty, Everyday Minerals, Lily Lolo, Elf)

Hey everyone! :-)

I have just run out of my winter foundation - Hessian by Elemental Beauty - and I was searching for something similar among my million mineral make-up samples. :-p
I thought that my swatches could have been useful to somebody! ;-)

There we go...

EVERYDAY MINERALS (here)

(--> multi-tasking concealer - best concealer EVER, nick nack blush, all smiles blush)

(--> light medium foundation, light olive foundation, winged butter foundation)

(--> light foundation, golden medium foundation, medium beige foundation)

(--> multi-tasking neutral foundation, light neutral foundation)


(--> olive fair foundation, fair medium foundation. medium beige neutral foundation)

Medium beige neutral is the clostest to Hessian

(--> lily lolo cookie foundation; elf mineral concealer/foundation warm)

ELEMENTAL BEAUTY (here)

(--> blush foundation, hessian foundation, dewy powder, bright eyes concealer - worst concealer EVER)

I wouldn't suggest bright eyes concealer. It is yellow and it doesn't cover ANYTHING.

MY FAVOURITE MINERAL FOUNDATIONS, CONCEALER, POWDER, HIGHLIGHTER AND BRUSHES

Opalescent highlighter - Elemental Beauty

As for the brushes, I usually use Elf Studio Powder brush to apply foundation, Elf Studio Angled Contour brush for concealer, Elf Studio Complexion brush for powder and Elf Studio Blush brush for blush.

Hope this helps!
