Product Review: Benefit Fake Up Concealer

Hey Loves!

So recently I have been searching for a new product to help cover up a slight redness that I have naturally on the apples of my cheeks. Seems a bit funny that I cover up the color simply to add it right back in with a blush, but I think it is nice to start with a blank canvas. 


Anywho, this product is Benefit's Fake Up Concealer in the shade "01 Light". 





 One thing I loved about this product, I must admit, was the packaging. I think it is cute and girly and it makes trying out a new product way more fun!!
 Another thing that I loved and was excited about is the fact that it is not only a concealer but a moisturizer as well. These pictures show the ring around the concealer that moisturizes your skin. I found this to be a two in one product. Anytime I am using a product on my face it is nice to add a moisturizer as to avoid dry skin! 




When I first applied this product I was a little nervous, I tried it under my eyes as well as on my cheeks, however I was not entirely pleased with the coverage around my eyes. Sometimes I can have quite dark circles and felt like this didn't cover them up as well as I typically like. 

BUT...

On my cheeks I thought this product did a great job to conceal the redness and keep my skin moisturized! Considering that was the original reason I bought the concealer I was a happy girl! I also found that it applies best when putting it across my cheeks in stripes like tribal marks or a football player and blending it out with a face brush. I personally love the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush. 

I hope this review was helpful for you and you enjoyed reading! :)

Have a lovely day. xoxo
