I TESTED 15 AFFORDABLE/DRUGSTORE CONCEALERS - WHICH WORKED BEST ON MY DARK & HOLLOW UNDER EYES?!

[@AngelissimaASMR]

Ahh, the elusive Collection concealer! Every American girl who read blogs or watched KZbin between 2008-2013 wanted to get their hands on one! I have also found the ELF camo concealers to look very cakey. ive gone through a tube of each formula but I agree with liking the original a tad more than the hydrating. If I can find the Essence and Morphe I will have to try those next! They look lovely on you!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@AngelissimaASMR Haha, that is so funny to hear about the Collection 😄 Great to hear about your experiences with the Elf because sometimes I think that I’m the problem 😂 Thanks for watching my lovely 🩷

[@Haley-hz9gj]

One of the best vids on concealer that I've watched so far!!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Oh wow, such an incredible compliment! Thank you so much for making my day 🥹💜

[@Haley-hz9gj]

@CarmelNicoleBeauty you are most welcome! I ordered the Revlon one yesterday. Oh and I bought the elf lipstick and the liner you paired with it. Can't recall the names but it is now a Go To of mine. THANK YOU

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

That’s amazing Haley, I absolutely love that! It makes me so happy when someone enjoys a recommendation. Thanks for letting me know, I really do appreciate that! 😘🩷

I'm 69 and used to use a Rimmel concealer in a lipstick style container for many years . Then started to use the Maybelline Rewind which hasn't changed until recently. I've just purchased the L'Oreal True Match and I do really like it but wish I'd seen your video first. Great content ❤

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@eleanor543 Hi Linda, thank you so much for sharing your experiences with different concealers ☺️ I really love the L’Oreal True Match, it’s so light and easy. I guess our under eyes tend to change so it’s hard to find one single concealer to use forever. The quest always continues 😄💜

[@Ltmotley]

As usual, your vid is so helpful because you thoroughly test, inform and illustrate. Appreciate all the work you did. I had the same reaction to the Maybelline Age Rewind. There was so much publicity for it, so I tried it, but it did not work for me. I will try the Revlon Colorstay because I love Revlon products, and it is in your overall picks. I use the Lancome concealer, but even though it is high end, I am not thrilled with it. Thanks again for giving me the information I need to find a concealer that works for my dry undereyes, and will hopefully reduce or diminish creasing.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@Ltmotley Thank you so much, Laurie! Really interesting to hear your thoughts on the Lancôme- I’ll be putting together a high end video on concealers at some point, so it’ll be interesting to see how they compare! Thanks for being here 😘🩷

[@Ltmotley]

Looking forward to that. Will be interesting to see what you think. It is the best one I have found but still struggle with the dry undereyes and circles on my aging skin. I do love Lancome products. The vid where I discovered your channel had to do with the undereyes, and I am so appreciative of the technique you showed us. It helps. ❤

This was brilliant! So much good information 😘

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Ah, Im glad you think so Jan! So appreciate you taking the time out to watch it! ❤️

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty of course! I’m fussy about concealer and am always interested in what other people like and why. You’re a fair bit younger than me but we seem to appreciate similar things in our concealer 🤩😘

[@jillianpurdy2542]

A timely video Carmel thank you!! I also struggle with colour matching when buying online but never know where to start when I get to store. The last 2 concealers I bought online were so orange I looked ridiculous. I think I will probably try the Revlon colorstay. Helpful and inciteful as always Carmel. Hope you're well? Xx❤

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@jillianpurdy2542 Oh it’s the worst, Jillian! I think I spent more time searching for shade descriptions than I did actually editing this video! 🙈 The Revlon is amazing- I’m wearing it right now and I just LOVE it! 💕 I’m good thanks Jillian, hope you had (or will have?) a great time away in Scotland! Lots of love 🩷😘 xx

Just found your videos. So glad I did as I am a bit over spending a small fortune on high end makeup.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@caraj9704 Hi Cara! Oh I can completely relate, I was the same at one point! Honestly, the drugstore has come a long way - both in terms of price and quality. So many rivals to high end these days! 🩷☺️

Sounds like I need to try the NYX Bare With Me concealer! My fave is Tower28, not particularly affordable!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@heathernelson4886 Hi Heather! I love the Tower 28 too, but think I prefer the Nyx now. It’s not quite as light & serum feeling as the Tower 28, but it definitely creases less on me ☺️

[@katemurphy5773]

Hi beauty! Really enjoyed this video on Elf. I'm trying some of their products next payday. I'm so glad you reminded me about the concealer!!! 😂 I had to make an updated buy list...🤣🤣 I've reached the age where I can't remember a shopping list... I've decided I'd have to do up a list or continue to have to make multiple trips to the store! 🤷‍♀️

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@katemurphy5773 Hey lovely! I had to check which comment section I was in, I think you came here from the Elf Video 😅 Ah thanks for watching 🥰 Kate, I have to write a list for literally _everything_, Lord knows where I would end up without them 😂 lots of love, my beautiful Kate 💕

[@tiffsbeautyspot5350]

I loved this video. 🥰 My favorite drugstore concealer is Covergirl trublend under cover concealer. It has great coverage and doesn’t crease.I’m going to try your top two recommendations.🎉

i’ve loved the catrice true skin concealer for years now. such an incredible formula. but i agree with you that the shade range is awful! and i also liked the wet n wild incognito at first but not as the day/night wore on. excited to pick up the loreal serum concealer soon ✨

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@laur83 Oh the Catrice shade range is really poor isn’t it! 😕 It’s also great to hear about your experience with the Wet n Wild - it’s a shame because it starts off so beautifully! Not sure if you’ve ever tried their foundation (the dewy) but it’s absolutely stunning & stays that way all day! 😊 Thanks for sharing Laura and hope you love the L’Oréal as much as I do! 🩷

VERY helpful!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@sarag.7156 I’m so happy to hear this! 🥰

[@jsel6576]

For what it’s worth, that Morphe concealer did not look bad after you blended it out. I think the shade was not that far off, especially since you look fairly tan. Just my thoughts. I didn’t think it looked “straight up orange.”

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@jsel6576 Thank you so much for that feedback! I think it looked more orange off camera, but you’re right about it not being too bad once it was blended and set! I’ll still use it because it was a good concealer 🙂

[@jsel6576]

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty i really appreciate your reviews of both concealers and mascara. These two makeup items are the toughest for me to find one I really like. Then, they either discontinue it or reformulate it.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@jsel6576 Oh it makes me happy to know that the reviews might be helpful in some way! Mascara and concealer seem to be the never ending search for me too, so if I find decent ones, I’ll make it my mission to share! Thank you so much for watching, I really do appreciate it 🩷☺️
