Best Concealer Hack Aquaphor

This concealer hack is supposed to take years off your face, so I decided to try it! and the best part? You probably already have this product in your purse! It's Aquaphor lip balm! It's supposed to prevent creasing, lines and cakiness! Let's see how it does during an 11-hour wear test! Thank you so much for hanging out with me, I truly appreciate it! Much love, Cat xoxo

Hello, my dear friends! So glad to be back! What do you think of this concealer hack? Are you going to try it? If you have an undereye area that's oily, please share your thoughts! With the lip balm being very "slick" with a silicone feel, I imagine it may work well for both dry and oily undereyes! Thank you so much for watching! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🥰❤ Edit: I would like to add, too much use of this hack can cause milia (tiny white bumps) under the delicate eye area. Thank you to my subscribers who brought this to our attention! You ladies are the best!

[@suzannelentine]

Hi Cat! I did this hack the other day - saw it on the same YT channels you did, so I purchased both the Aquaphor balm and also the powder Scott Barnes recommended - the Maybelline Super Stay powder foundation. So first - I am older (68) and have very dry skin under my eyes and a more crepey texture. I always struggle with concealer - not so much creasing, but looking dry and accentuating that texture. I also use the same Saie concealer you did, which I am loving because it is SO smooth and hydrating. (I literally have not touched any of my other concealers since buying the Saie one - I think it's that good!) Anyway, for the hack itself - I did like how hydrated my under eyes felt using the lip balm. I thought the concealer applied smoothly and as much as I would never use a powder foundation (my skin is much too dry), I applied just a touch to set everything (just under my eyes) using a brush and a tiny amount of the product. For awhile I thought it looked really nice - fairly smooth, no settling, not very dry looking. But....a few hours later, my under eyes looked very, very dry and had almost a white cast going on. I can't say whether it was due to the powder foundation, even though the color match was a good one and I used very little of it. I plan to try this hack using my regular Elf Halo Glow loose powder and see if I get better results. I guess my final verdict on the hack is mixed - it felt nice, initially looked very good, didn't experience creasing - but in the longer term, my under eye area looked super dry. Hope this detailed description of my experience is somewhat helpful - sorry it's so long! xoxo Suzanne 🌹

[@pedinurse1]

It's probably the powder foundation. You have to use very little powder under the under, it did not budge y'all, I was shockec

[@evelynrosado9711]

I use from time to time a little bit of Vaseline and it works. Thanks for the review.

[@ClaraBarrerabeautyisageless55]

Beauty tan Cat, your under eyes look amazing, I liked the hack also, I did read in some comments on other creators that it should not be used everyday because it caused milia. Have a great weekend, hugs, Clara xoxo

[@thatlia]

I’ve been doing this for about a week. It works pretty good, but I don’t wear make up every single day. I’ve tried it with different products some work better than others ❤ Happy Friday

[@karlaharvey2623]

Hi Cat, yep, so many content creators are doing this Aquaphor hack. As an occlusive, it seems like it wouldn’t work well under concealer, but guess it does. My understanding is that eyes are so dehydrated and dry, I am going to go and purchase it and give it a try. Thank you for such a great review of this hack.

[@lulubellecataloni5605]

Hi- I did this hack for a week and felt it looked a little dry under my eyes. I went back to putting my eye cream on first and then the rest of the hack and I love it! I am 60 btw.

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Omg, that's awesome @LuLuBelle Cataloni 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing your valued input on this hack! I love it! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🌸 🥰

[@adgpb]

I use the Aquaphor that comes in the tube all over my face when it’s super dry, including my eye area . I tried it under my color corrector and concealer. I am shocked at how good it looked and held up throughout the day.

[@s.jensen1492]

[@janettanaka2894]

Hi Cat….great to have you back! How was vacay? This is an interesting hack and I’m sure many will be trying this out. I love the Clarins lip oil you used….what a pretty color. I caved and bought the Dior lavender blush. I have to say I love it!! It’s subtle yet buildable and I’ve been reaching for it everyday. I don’t use concealer but I love a good lipstick/gloss and blush. 😊🇨🇦💐

Hi Cat! I'm so intrigued by this hack. Angie from Hot n Flashy had no luck with it, but your results look great. I'll be picking up some Aquaphor this weekend to try for myself. Thanks for the thorough review!

I use aquaphor in the little tub the stick balm pulls the skin too much! I also use it on my eye brows to keep them smooth in place 😊

[@paularembert]

Cat, I just started using the aquaphor about a week ago. It has really made a difference on my under eyes. I had one day when my eyes didn’t look so great but I thought it maybe had to do with my eyes being extra puffy that day. But today they looked fantastic!

[@cathymaas2406]

I was very impressed how this worked for me. I’m a die hard Eucerin user for my uber dry areas and also my neck. Works great! Glad it worked for you also. I am sooo jealous of your tan ❤❤❤ Can’t wait to hear how the trip went!

[@sagebeauty]

I have the Danessa Myricks colourless eye primer that feels slippy. I’ve been using it to see if it works on the undereye as well as the lids. I am not sure if it is the same consistency as the Aquaphor (we don’t have that brand here I don’t think 🤔🇦🇺) and I already had the DM primer. I have also tried just straight Vaseline jelly and I love that in the under eye area, especially as a last step over all other night time skincare. It’s winter here now and my skin is the driest I’ve ever seen it! Love your vids dear Cat. Have a wonderful day.

[@kimbright4935]

I’ve been putting a moisturizer under my eyes after foundation before concealer. Keep it from creasing and does seem to last. I admit I’m going to try the aquaphor

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Awesome @kimbright4935 🥰 let me know what you think and your results! Thank you so so much for watching! Much love, Cat xoxo 💖🥰💕

[@Bailey_G]

Like you, I don't have much "texture" under my eyes either but I decided to try this nonetheless. The Aquafour irritated my eyes so I'm back to using it on my lips. I lean towards dryer skin so the Maybelline powder is not something I would normally purchase because it's matte and a foundation powder, however, when it's super hot outside I am using just the lightest slightest touch of that powder to set my concealer and have it last longer and I'm pleased with how it looks. I'll go back to my regular lighter-weight powder when the weather cools down again. So, not a total loss for me and no waste of products. 👍

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with this hack @Bailey_G ❤️ I am like you, I use a matte setting powder under my eyes to set my concealer during the hot and humid months. In the wintertime, I usually go without it because that area tends to run dry. I have tried the new ELF Cooling Stick Primer in that area, and it works very well! Thank you so much for watching! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🥰🌸💗

[@Bailey_G]

@@CatsEyeBeauty I'll check out that e.l.f. primer! Thanks! This year I've gotten into a lot of e.l.f. products that I really like and the savings just makes it that much sweeter for me -- means I can try even more products! Yay! 😄👍 Glad I found your channel! 💜

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

[@speca]

Do you need to warm it up on the back of your hand first so it doesn’t drag the delicate under eye skin? ❤

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Omg @speca ❤️ that's a spectacular idea! And that would definitely be warmed up before applying! Thank you for sharing this fantastic idea! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🥰💕

Thanks for the review Cat! Ugh conceler is so tough for me!! No joke most days I just put Elf primer the pink pump one under my eyes, maybe elf click conceler or Physician's Formulas conceler you recommended if I am feeling risky! I can use the same products and have different results each time! Maybe the answer is lip balm? Have a great weekend!!

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Omg, my dear friend @jennifercaparole1978 🥰 how are you? If you're feeling risky, try this hack, $5.99 and if it doesn't work, it's a fantastic lip balm!

[@KChrisWatching]

I’m not sure how many aquafor videos there are now so will try too! I bought it before all these videos from Amazon when I saw it recommended, and I noticed it had avocado oil and not too many other ingredients. Any time my hair is super dry, nothing works better than avocado ingredients so I’m sure this is great for skin moisture as long as it doesn’t cause products to sink in or slide around. Products just sort of vanish on me lol…especially things like eye shadow which I’ve never tried to make work.

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Hello @KChrisWatching ❤️ have you tried using an eyeshadow primer? I use a little concealer on my eyelids for eyeshadow, and it works wonderful! Thank you so much for watching! Much love, Cat xoxo 🌸✨️🥰

The Elizabeth Mott one I like. It isn’t drying or irritating. I’ll still have to go with more long wear products. Thanks for your video ❤

[@paulahardin6002]

Just as an FYI, this did not work for me. The aquaphor is too thick and sticky. I used Bee Naturals Queen Bee Peeper Keeper Eye Balm it is much more emollient and smooth. It works beautifully. I’m 63 by the way.

[@iamarianna8972]

I would save this lip balm hack for special occasions only. Because the formula is so rich and "waxy" it will cause mila (the little white dots) that are difficult to remove or rectify. Many of KZbinrs who initially did positive reviews are now going back to add in comments advising of this.

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Thank you so much for suggesting this @iamarianna8972 ❤️ we definitely want to keep milia away! 🥰

[@purplepeople9298]

Would eye cream do the same thing?
