The Concealer Game Strong with Osmosis Skin Care and Amazing Cosmetics




Let's talk concealer today. I have in total of 4 new concealer to share with you but today I will show you two. 
Osmosis Colour Age defying Treatment Concealer and Amazing Cosmetics Corrector.
Both were my go to for last week and both I came to cherish. 

Osmosis Colour Age defying Treatment Concealer is amazing. Not only it provides a great coverage but also will help you hydrate and soften fine lines around your eyes. This concealer as you can tell is dual ended. One side have a concealer and other moisturizing stick. So this concealer I apply before foundation.



 I use the moisturizing stick first and then I go over with a concealer. That moisturizing stick just as the name suggest it will moisturize / hydrate your under eye area. It contains nourishing ingredients like argan oil, coconut oil, shea butter and vitamin E. It does have a tiny scent to it, for me it smells like a lemon :) Not overpowering but very pleasant.



Concealer itself is really good. The pigmentation is amazing. blends really good and there is no scent to it. I apply under my eyes, bridge of my nose, around my nose and forehead. I use a damp blender to blend. The consistency is creamy and thick, but at the same time once you blend is weightless. It gives  a flawless look and covers dark circles and blemishes. Lasted all day once I set it with a powder. Didn;t notice any creasing or setting in a fine lines.
I have my in a shade fair and it is a perfect match :)

You can purchase it here:osmosis web
Price: $38,

 


Second concealer I have is by Amazing Cosmetics.  Amazing Corrector was a new release for Spring 2016 and it was gone before you knew it. Color correction is so on trend right now. Everyone is making a color corrector concealers , singles or in a palettes. Amazing Cosmetics made a dual sided correction. Which is awesome coz you can get two shades. Other companies made one tube for each color... So yeah thumbs up for AC for making my life easier and save me some $$$.
 First thing first, AC came out with three correctors:
* Fair/Light (light orange/green) this is the one I have
* Light/Medium (Yellow/Orange) most popular one
* Medium/ Deep (red orange/dark orange)



As I mention before and well you can see it on the picture, AC corrector comes with two shades. 
It is formulated with:
* Vitamin E
* cucumber extract fruit to depuff and soften
*sodium hyaluronate to maintain moisture
* ceramide NP to repair skin



I choose the one with green coz of my blemishes. The formula on both sides is creamy,lightweight and blends really good and it gives a natural finish.
Using both sides helped me hide acne and blemishes viable on my face. The concealer stay all day without a budge.

The only thing I am not happy s the brush on the green side. It came damaged. As you can see the bristles are all over and it gives me a hard time to apply and ten put it back in coz each time they get even worst. The applicator on the other side is perfect and applies concealer really good.
Overall Amazing Cosmetics Corrector and other concealers are amazing. They are my go to coz I know they will never disappoint me.



This Corrector is available at ULTA,Sephora and AC Web
Price $ 29

Amazing Cosmetics Illuminate Concealer

*PR Sample*





Amazing Cosmetics done it again! New addition to concealer family launched Spring 2016. And I am talking about Illuminating Concealer. 
Amazing Cosmetics call this lighter than air formula.Concealer contains pearlescent light reflector that blur imperfections and gives skin glow.

I have to admit I was scared at first.Illuminating concealer that gives a glow..ummmm...I have an oily skin and I really don't need more glow that could possibly make me look more oily than I am!Imagine my surprise! it didn't make me shiny. Thank God! 

Concealer provides medium coverage. Blends really nice, wears all day and it dont set in fine lines. Doe foot applicator makes applying easier. I like the formula. It is thick but once you blend you dont even feel it. 
 I like to use it under my eyes ( covers dark circles and brightens eyes),forehead,bridge of my nose and around it.I usually use damp beauty blender and hen set with powder. 
It can also be used as a brown bone  highlight and spot coverage. 

Concealer comes in large shade selection.
Price: $30



Amazing Cosmetics ~ Perfection Stick ~ Review

*PR Sample*



Hi Loves!
I want to show you a new product joining my makeup collection, Amazing Cosmetics Perfection Stick is a creamy, blendable pencil that contours and highlights creating flawless complexion. 
I just want to state I love Amazing Cosmetics, their concealer is my holy grail. 
Now I got the chance to try out Perfection Stick. 
Stick comes in 4 shades ~ Fair, Medium, Tan and Deep. I have my in Fair and Medium. 
Chubby sticks that are cute and easy t hold and to work with.Best part you don't have to sharpen it. Just twist the bottom.



They are really creamy and blend like a dream. They are also very versatile. You can use them as a highlight and contour. They do have great pigmentation. Both feel light on my face.
I use Fair underneath of my eyes for highlight. I actually didn't like the Medium much because I thought it was too orange for me, but it actually worked to hide my dark circles! I applied it first blended out and then I apply Fair shade on top and it looked great! my eyes looked more awake and more flawless. I didn't notice any creasing. It lasted all day on my oily skin. 
Both can be use as an eyeshadow primers too. Yes I did try that too and it worked. 
They are prefect for to-go. You can put them into your makeup bag and do touch ups during they day.  You can blend it with our fingers. Cap stays on. I didn't have much problem with it. 


I actually do recommend for you to check them out. They are a great addiction to you makeup collection. And I wont lie I been using them daily ever since I got them. 

You can get them form Sephora, Sephora Online,Ulta, Ulta Online and Amazing Cosmetics Online.

Amazing Cosmetics ~ Amazing Concealer




Now I know what  the hype is about. 
The Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer is truly amazing.
When I first tried it I was positively surprised on how good it is. 
I don't have visible dark circles under my eyes  but I always , always use concealer.Every day. And since I been using this one I am completely hooked! I just need a tiny bit of a drop to cover both sides of my under-eye area. I use it also around my nose and chin. The consistency is creamy and thick, a little on watery side. I don't know if I make any sense. The first time I squeezed it out a lot of oil came out and the concealer was more liquid form. Now is much better. 
I used my fingers first to apply, now I use dump beauty blender. I apply underneath of my BB Cream. When I switch to foundation I might try to apply over it. But for me I like my concealer under though. 
It bends well and gives me a medium/full coverage. Covers well face imperfections like zits (which I get once in a while). It last pretty long time too.the longest was 8h.
I did however creased a bit. I guess the warmer and more humid air in NYC does that. I bet that in now coming colder months it will work better. That how it is. The more humid the more my makeup melts off my face. And that time I try to wear as less as possible. Recently the weather started to cool off and I see the concealer preforms much better. 
What else you need to know:
* packaging is regular black squeezable tube. Tiny tube. 
* Comes in 2 sizes (  Full size is .5 fl.oz/15ml($42)  and Travel size .2 fl.oz/6ml ($28) but they will last for ages since you need just tiny bit)
* there are 20 shades available ( I have my in FAIR )
* you can buy it at Sephora, Ulta and Amazing Cosmetics website
* versatile ( conceals, primes, defines, highlight and contours)
*  water resistant  




Overall I super happy with the resultants I get. It is a very good concealer and now I know what the hype is about. I will say if you have a dark circles, uneven skin tones and age spots I suggest you to try this concealer out.


Also I want to show you swatches alongside my other concealers. Most of my concealers are form drugstore, this one is my first higher end one. And yes, I do like the Amazing Concealer more then others. Last much longer then other ones and well the coverage is way better. 
Take a look.




Look t the coverage once I rub it into my hand ! Crazy right?!
