The best concealer I've ever used is called Lancome Photogenic Correcteur (they do love to give their products foo-foo French names!). It's a non-oily, almost powdery, very solid cream that comes in a little jar with a black lid. It has a yellow tint to offset the red in blemishes and the duskiness of dark circles. It has those light-reflecting particles so it helps deflect some of the attention from the blemish. There are other "correctives" on the market, and I've tried them all. This stuff beats everything I've ever tried, and my sister agrees with that assessment. You apply it with your finger or a cosmetic sponge or Q-tip and can thin it out with moisturizer, too. I use it on dark circles. I used to have a lot more use for it on blemishes before I began using another great product to clear up my broken-out middle-aged skin, Proactiv solution.
Have you tried Bare Minerals "Well Rested" for eyes? It has the yellow tint. Also Bisque Multi-Tasking for Face. These are both powders, but provide coverage for concealing. The trick with BareMinerals/BareEscentuals (I swear, that's how they spell it) products is selecting the correct brush. When I need more coverage, I use the Max Coverage Concealer brush. When I don't need as much, I use the Light Stroke brush. I really like brush application because it gives me more control, and is easy to blend.

I wish I could afford Proactiv. From everything I've heard, that stuff is miraculous!
Mrs. Greenjeans Reviewed by Mrs. Greenjeans on . Make up I was wondering how important your make up is to you. Me when I go out in public I dont have to have my make up on but I feel better if I do. I know some girls who wont leave the house without it. Also what kind of foundation do any of you use. Im wanting to make a switch and dont want to end up buying something that will make my face look orange. Rating: 5
