I discovered your incredible channel when I was researching concealing the undereye area. You explain it better than anyone else on YT! Appreciate the review as this is my main issue. Your expertise with makeup, technology and communication is evident. Grateful for the before/after, lighting, text and graphics you use. So much work goes into your vids and I learn so much from you. I use the same application brush you use - A506. Always great to have your gorgeous face pop up. Thanks again! 🥰

@@theprettyintellectual You are so lovely, thank you so much! ☺️ I’m so glad it was helpful. I would definitely advise side stepping this with drier under eyes.

Hello Carmel, the hardest thing for me in beauty is choosing a good concealer and the right color, it's a real headache and unfortunately all the sephorettes gave me bad advice. I have roughly the same skin tone as you and I can finally trust color references for concealers Hooray. Thank you for this video🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Try the fast response eye cream as base before using the concealer it will work.

I’ve experienced some issues with this concealer that I never had before with any other product. After applying the Studio Radiance Concealer, small bumps appeared around my eye area, which was really concerning. Sadly, I had to return it, despite loving the texture and application of this product. It’s a shame, because it felt great on my skin otherwise.

@@IsabelaCamposLaFora Oh gosh, that is such a shame. I feel very similarly about it, despite having tried many times to make it work! At least you were able to return it, which is a silver lining! Thank you so much for sharing your experience ☺️🩷

Hi Carmel, there are a lot of skin care ingredients seemingly in this product and maybe for that reason it's meant to replace your existing under eye serums and or creams. It appears to have been designed as a multi purpose concealer. Concealer, brightener and skincare in one product. Shame it didn't stand up to the wear test, as on first application it seemed to tick many boxes. Thanks as always Carmel for your honest and thorough review. Much love. 💕

I just discovered if you have already covered this i apologize but can you tell me why you don't put vitamin C or niacinamide under your eyes? I'm curious because my undereyes are super dry and I do put all my serums under my eyes so I'm wonderful if I shouldn't . I loved your review by the way!
@CarmelNicoleBeautyАй бұрын
@@ashleybullard1285 Hi Ashley! Don’t ever worry about asking me questions ☺️ I think it’s just a personal choice really. The skin under our eyes is much thinner than the rest of our face, so it could be more prone to irritation & drying. My advice would be to always read the product directions & ensure it specifically states that it’s suitable for that area. Of course, you can buy under eye specific products which will always be suitable 😊 I just like to keep my undereyes hydrated because they are so thin, so hyaluronic acid is enough for me 😊💜

MAC concealers and foundations are very hit or miss for me. Some are my longtime holy grails and others are awful or make me break out terribly. I'll probably keep my eye on this for a possible future purchase. I do tend to like luminous vs. dewy products for my more normal-oily skin. Thanks for another great review! 💗

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty Awesome. I am interested to watch your review on the Dior stick foundation. No one has seemed to mentioned if it oxidizes at all, and I am interested to know if it does - as Dior foundations in the past have oxidized on me. Excited to hear what you think of it 😊 and to see what colour is right for you.

You don’t need to apply a much of products, it is 80% skin care serum based.. over use of products yet less and see how that works
@CarmelNicoleBeautyАй бұрын
@@FacesByChenelle Hi there ☺️ Thanks for your comment! You’re right, over prep of skincare products will ruin a product! Not sure if you caught the part about my prep but I prep my under eyes (and face) the same every day, with just an eye serum. No matter what skincare is in a makeup product, you still need to prep the skin of course, but as you said, minimally! 🩷
