Product Review : 3 Concept Eyes Full Cover Concealer

*Waves hysterically* Hello Domokies! It's been a super long time since I blogged again :( Not as long as when we went MIA but well... Still kinda long. Apologies but I have been packed with courses and work. I have no offdays!!! *Tugs at hair dramatically*

Ok, I don't have much hair. Shall not do that.

But anyway, I'm back with a review! And it's a cosmetic product :D

Today's review will be on the 3 Concept Eyes Full Cover Concealer~

Left - #2 / Right - #1

They're kinda tiny because I bought the miniatures to try out first. Got it in both shade 1 and 2 as I could NOT determine which shade suits me from the picture they provided. I have swatches of both below!

Oh and it comes with your regular doe foot applicator. Picks up product well, quite a lot at one go actually so don't accidentally slap a whole blob on.

I have attached pictures of the ingredients list. Picture credit : stylenanda. Please click to enlarge.

Top - #2 / Bottom - #1

There! The swatches. I promise you this is quite accurate. Like 99% similar as to what I see with my eyes IRL.

Say hello to arm mole! It's been an extremely long time since it last showed up in  a post!

My thoughts :

If you're looking to cover a zit, this sucks. As you can tell from the coverage test above, it fares pretty badly. As an undereye concealer? Yes! IF your dark eye circles are not severe, you can definitely use this as an undereye concealer / highlighter. It gives a beautiful dewy finish that looks amaaaazing and natural, as long as either one of the shades suits you.

I have been using the darker shade (#2) to conceal the inner V of my eyebags/circles. It's only very slightly lighter than my dark eye circles. I then use the lighter shade (#1) to highlight a bigger V from the inner portion of my cheeks all the way to my eye bags. This highlights the area and creates the illusion of fuller cheeks and hides the eyebags more. By having fuller cheeks, you'll look younger. I do not mean swollen cheeks uhh so don't get me wrong. The lighter shade (#1) is perfect for natural highlighting due to it's dewy finish and that it's only slightly lighter than my skin tone.

On a totally random note, this concealer smells nice lol. Also, you have to set this concealer with some loose/pressed powder if you want this to last. It's not very long lasting and I'd say it wears for about 3-4 hours on oily skin. I guess if you want something that's natural and dewy, you can't really expect it to be a long lasting product. This one's perfect for those with dry under eyes as it's a very liquidy product. Kinda creamy but not sticky or anything.

I love this item and I'd recommend it if the shade suits you. I have purchased several back ups of shade 1 already :D

Texture: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (AWESOMEEEEE!)
Coverage: ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ (Covers some but just the minimal stuff)
Lasting Power: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Average wear, take another star off if you're oily but don't powder.)
Overall: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (I absolutely love this. It's affordable and not cakey! But one star off for the coverage and another off because it's definitely NOT a "Full Cover Concealer")

I got mine from a seller on Qoo10. Please note that he/she is only selling the mini sized concealer so it's only $2.

• Korea very Popular 3concept eyes Makeup product

If you want the full sized one, you can try this seller. ***Please take note that I've never purchased anything from this seller before.

Product Review : Skinfood Gold Caviar Moist Brightening Powder Ball

Woohoo! Three reviews in a row! Not awesome but still a personal record. My role model is Temptalia. She's so awesome and she does soooooo many reviews a day! My photos aren't of as high quality as hers but still, I'm trying. I'll get an awesome camera once I save up sufficient funds for it!

Also, let me say that I sincerely appreciate every like I've received on FB!

Onto the product, another favourite of mine yet again.（￣へ￣）Poor pocket. I also bought this long ago and have been using it quite frequently since then. It's quite hard to finish though.

I'm round and fat!

Cute right? I like the color and that little design on the cover. Let me tell you, the contents of this product is even cuter!

Screw open the lid and...

What's this! Brush included! Yay~

Now we take out the brush and...

This is actually a sticker than can be peeled off to reveal a sieve. Now I didn't remove the seal and I bet you're wondering why. This is why. Take off the cover again...

So appealing! Like candies, so colorful ^ w ^

Balls. Cute little balls. How the heck can this fit through the sieve?! No, you can't just shake it really hard and pray that the powder will fall through the sieve because these little balls are hard I tell you. You can pick it up between your fingers and squeeze. I promise that it wouldn't just disintegrate into shimmer dust.

I think the packaging is a little wonky but it's cute at the same time. Just look at those candies! I'm a sucker for such stuff and no doubt, I'm sucking it up. Just too adorable to resist!

Okay, now you should also be wondering... Why so many colors for a highlighter?! Actually it's a combination of these because you want to combat different kind of "darkness". Gives an overall brightening effect to your face. That's what the internet and other's say. Personally I beg to differ because when I swatch it, it's always the same color. No amazing rainbows. Here's my swatch!

I had to keep piling it on to get this swatch!

Very subtle actually. What you see above is the hard work of dipping my finger in and desperately rolling around trying to get more product on my finger. When I put this on my cheekbones, there's actually no glitters, more of a sheen. Subtle yet obvious at the same time, if that makes sense. I use this on my nose bridge too because well, I want it to look slimmer?

This highlighter basically gives you these beautiful glow, mainly gold so that it blends in and looks more natural. NOT frosty at all. I hate frosty highlighters. Like a metallic shine on your face!!! This is why I never ever use white to highlight my face, white isn't anyone's color unless you're deathly pale. As white as a sheet of paper. Then maybe white is okay. Or unless it's some runway kind of look.

Oh and you'll be amazed, this product actually smells kinda nice..? I don't mean superbly fragrant but like a powdery floralish kinda scent.

You can get this from Skinfood outlets in Singapore I think. But I have a feeling it's severely overpriced. I got mine from Korea. You should too because it will save you a hell lot of ka-ching. Find someone to CP for you or find a blogshop, it should be easily available online!

Texture : ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (Rather finely milled to me!)
Pigmentation : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Not superb but isn't that why it's so natural?)

Lasting power : ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ (Lasts for awhile till I rub my face and smear it or my oilies melts it off)

Overall : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Not a bad product, I quite like it!)

Off to bugis street when it's about to rain! Sobs~

XOXO,
Chiharu ❤
