I wanted to share with you the product I use to conceal my under-eyes and any blemishes! I have pretty bad under-eye circles; they are very dark and it takes a lot to cover them up. I had heard a lot about the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer being a great drugstore product with lots of coverage and I would have to say I completely agree!

I'm always on the lookout for a drugstore concealer that really does its job! Concealers can be SO expensive and I don't want to spend that much money on a product unless I am totally happy with it. But the great thing is that I don't have to spend a ton of money because I have found an awesome drugstore alternative!
This concealer is very pigmented and stays put throughout the day. It gives fantastic coverage and I can finally say that I am happy with a concealer! For the longest time I wasn't quite satisfied with this concealer and was keeping my eye out for something better. But (quite recently actually) I finally figured out what I was doing wrong, I just wasn't applying it right!
I have always heard to use your fingers when applying concealer because it warms up the product allowing it to sink into your skin; however, I discovered that this technique was making me "overapply", if that's even possible. I was putting too much product on which was basically causing it to slide around easier, taking away from the coverage.
To solve this I started putting some on the back of my hand and taking a Sonia Kashuk fluffy crease brush and applying it with that.
Something about that brush does wonders to applying concealer even though that's definitely not what it's supposed to be used for. I find that it distributes the product evenly and beautifully! It gives just the right amount of coverage, looks beautiful, and doesn't slide throughout the day. After I apply it with the brush I go in and lightly pat it with my ring finger to really work it into my skin and then I set it with powder!

This concealer really is amazing! It's cheap but has fantastic coverage and quality! I actually just picked up a new bottle of it today, my third one! For all those who, like me, are self-conscious about their under eyes, this is the product for you!
Much love,
Rachel
