Tik Tok Concealer Hack using Lip Balm | Will It Work over 50?

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Thank you so much for following and supporting my channel! I also really appreciate you tagging me. You are gorgeous! You have the most stunning eye color! It was so fun watching you try this! I have a little tip for you - you may want to try a peach based concealer. The shade of concealer is a little light for covering depth (although it could be a camera and lighting thing).

[@beautybydez]

Oh my gosh Gabi, thank you so much - I am a huge fan and absolutely love your content! And thanks so much for the under eye advice - I will give that a go 🩷🧡💛

If you are worried about milia, the REM beauty eye balm has exactly the same effect as the aquaphor, but no risk of milia as it is a product designed for the eyes

[@beautybydez]

Ooh thanks. I'll take a peek - yes milia can be a problem for me.

[@teri2466]

I really think this application needs the stick form of the product. Two types of waxes make it stiffer and helps "fill in" lines. The balm form is too "juicy."

[@beautybydez]

I think you're probably right, Teri! Unfortunately we can't get the stick here 😕. Oh well, worth a try 🙂

[@teri2466]

@@beautybydez You could probably try another stick type balm. I would think it would work as well as the aquaphor brand. They're all very similar & use wax to solidify them. Just don't use a flavored one 😂

LOL, thanks Teri!

[@sassybanjo3586]

I got the lip balm yesterday and it isn’t sticky and shiny. Since you can’t get it, I suggest you look up the ingredients (which is the same as your tube and see if there’s a brand in your country with the same ingredients. I’m 64 in 3 days and this hack works for me.

[@sassybanjo3586]

A single product isn’t all things to all people because we’re all different…even two people of the same age. Of course, that seems very obvious, but we don’t act like it’s obvious. If somebody loves something we go out and purchase the same thing and expect the same results. It’s unrealistic.

This technique goes back to the Marilyn Monroe days, however, Vaseline was the product used. With this technique, less is more, Aquaphor can also be used as an all over face primer . 🌷

[@beyond50skin]

I think it’s a fab idea to try … esp w/ NYX color correction palette which I feel is a bit stickier or stiff vs the Stila color correction which is more creamy & silky. Thanks for sharing this! Definitely a lighter look which I prefer 😊

[@beautybydez]

Thanks Cindy! I wish I'd been able to get hold of the stick version, but unless I pay over £50 I can't - so odd what we can and can't get here as opposed to in the US. You're right, though, lighter is better!

Take a small shadow brush and use a peach color concealer only in the crease area under the eye. This will help you with the circles under the eyes.

[@annieirvine9259]

I think maybe you need the stick version. Lip balm in a stick is nowhere near as sticky, if you get my drift. I use a blur stick in a pink tube from Erborian which keeps my under eyes moist and does stop the creasing to some extent. If it starts to crease I put a bit more on. It is worth giving these things a try. Enjoyed the video Dez 🌹

[@beautybydez]

I think you're right Annie! I haven't used a stick in years on my lips - I think because so many of them are fragranced, and I jumped on the bandwagon without researching it - that'll teach me 😉💜

[@annieirvine9259]

It was worth giving it a go! And well done for giving an honest appraisal. As you say though, you can always use it up on your lips. That Hour Glass foundation looks wonderful on you.🌹

[@GB-he1zc]

First of all, you are lovely and sweet. Aquafor seems very moist, so the concealer and powder just sunk in. The Marionette lines are inevitable. I like your make up and with less Aquafor and more concealer plus foundation perhaps it would be a better blend. Models used Preparation H to get the puffiness under the eyes to go down. I would also use the brown eye shadow from outer corner of your eye all the way to the other side to darken the light puffiness in the inner corner next to the nose. When I see adds with seniors I use a light brown color pencil and shade all the things that come with age and the do the same on my face. It's great fun. Thank you, I subscribed and thumbs up.❤

[@beautybydez]

Ohhh thank you that's so kind of you! Yes it was super moist- could have been that I didn't have the stick version. I've not heard of Preparation H - I will check it out - and thank you so much for the tips ❤

[@roseyc.5846]

Hi Dez: I use just a bit of Aquaphor at night,over eye cream, under my eyes. I try to use elf camo hydrating concealer, which doesn't seem to crease much at all. I don't wash my face in the morning as i do at night, so there's moisture still there. Vaseline under the eyes works as well as an eye cream; a bit of castor oil is fine, too, imho. I use very little, if any, powder under my eyes. Aquaphor is a wonderful product.. maybe you'd prefer the stick form. Personally, I haven't tried this yet. Thanks so much for sharing! Rosemarie ❤️

[@beautybydez]

Thanks so much for the suggestions, Rosemarie - and interesting about castor oil - it's the oil of the moment, isnt' it - and I did buy some last year to see if I could use it as an eye makeup remover after my eye op. It was a fun video to do, hopping on the bandwagon, so to speak 😉❤️

[@TianaMaher]

I'm 68 now with good skin for my age. I use the aquaphor ointment on the part of my face which I want glowy( it blurres my wrinkles) but find that it's too shiny for under the inner under part of my eyes. In Canada I can't find the lip balm but I will check out another brand for that. Too much powder under the eyes I find, settles into the fine lines and looks crinkly. This is the first time I saw your channel. It's great that you are giving tips and advice for our age group. Thank you.

[@beautybydez]

Thanks so much Tiana! Agree re powder, trying to lessen my application now 😀

[@debbief5594]

You may want to try the Peter Thomas Roth eye balm or Plexiderm. Both will reduce the bags under the eyes and may give you a better effect. The stick aquaphor is a little drier and may work better too. 😊

[@beautybydez]

Thanks so much Debbie - I'm going to try the Peter Thomas Roth - not tried any of his products before and I think I need to pay more attention to my under eyes - I wish I could get the stick version but they don't seem to sell it in the UK, for some odd reason ❤️

I think you look fabulous! It’s great to know women still want to wear make up in their sixties. My Nans didn’t wear make up, my mum only used Mascara so I’ve never really used make up since being a mum myself. There’s a concealer with diamond powder, it reflects light and diminishes the shadow which is created from creases. It’s called FIORE. I’ve been looking at this product to use daily. I’ve just turned 49 and perimenopausal. I feel puffy, ugly and want something to make me at least look better. I will let you know how I get on with it. I used to use Vaseline and eyeshadow powder together too! It keeps it in place somehow. I’ve recently used urban decay setting spray too and it keeps your makeup from moving. Apply with a brush that’s been lightly sprayed and pat it on.

[@beautybydez]

Oh thanks so much Kelly! I've not heard of Fiore but I'm going to investigate 🙂- have heard of the Urban Decay spray - I actually have quite a good one from ELF but keep forgetting to use it!

I have not heard of this hack. I'm going to have to try it. It looks good in natural light. Hmmm I wonder if the stick form will be good. And wonder if it will work with my oily skin. Maybe it does thin the concealer out. Thank you Dez for trying it for us. Have a great day my friend!

[@Cc07]

Idk if they still make it bc i found it in 2019 and really only use it in the summer months but vaseline and burt bees may have a stick form that can help if you prefer that over the lip balm. I agree that natural light looked much better. As for fine lines, folds and bags.. most makeup will settle in. A base that is meant to withstand moisture is a go to for me so a bb cream or summer foundation works great for this and I use it all over. Look for 8h-24h hold, waterproof and water resistant moisturizers or foundations. My main criticism is powdering in general will always cause settling. As i’m noticing my own wrinkles, creamy based products and setting sprays help so much more. I agree that products like plexiderm can also reduce bags as well. It’s hard when jowls come in because you overal are competing with that gravity so regardless, most makeup will settle especially throughout the day.. even in my younger years, because of temperatures or weather, i always end up reapplying. I used vaseline in summer months because it tends to hold the makeup in longer and keep a glow. In the winter, i use different types of moisturizers at night, morning and different primers. Lately i’ve been using nyx eyeshadow primer and tatcha for under eye to help creasing and so far so good? After a certain point as it fades, i start to give up😅 Sometimes I use oil with my moisturizer too but i rarely use powder because of settling. I’ve always been curious about this trend so ty for testing it out. I love all the brushes too! I been meaning to get some rather than use my hands as an applicator haha

[@beautybydez]

Ah, I should have thought about Burts Bees! The snag is a lot of the stick forms use fragrance which is a bummer as I'm allergic to it. It's been so interesting to hear yours and others' comments about this kind of product, whether it be Vaseline or Aquafor or similar - I hadn't appreciated how popular it is. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it!

[@laydijayne8963]

I mean.. there’s a great difference from this but I’d use the stick as appose to the cream form.. I personally use Vaseline 🤭 x ❤

[@The.House.of.Joseph]

Hello Dez. Thank you for this video. I think that where you possibly went wrong was using the ointment as opposed to the stick balm. They have very different ingredients in - one, the ointment, is more akin to vaseline and is very greasy indeed. The other, the stick balm, is much more matt, although still really hydrating. Perhaps if you had have blotted the top layer of the ointment prior to applying your concealer? I thought it looked wonderful and you have amazing skin. ❤

[@beautybydez]

Thank you - yes a definite fail using the tube version - we can't get the stick here in the UK - should have tried to find an equivalent 😉

My go to under eye , well there are two, the rodial low light banana colour corrector, of which they also do a peach version, is amazing stuff, worth every penny. Also the beauty pie under eye brightener. But the rodial one is exceptional. To be fair, I don’t have any problem areas under my eyes, plenty elsewhere, but not there.

I think Gabi used a lip balm stick (not as sticky as the tube)- I saw her video, but wondered if this was used in place of eye cream, or as well as. Gabi was pulling her undereye while applying this which worried me slightly. I think Aquaphor is a lanolin based product, which I know gives some people problems. I'm going to give it a try - did you use eye cream too? Thanks for trying!

I was browsing Amazon last night & came across the Nivea lip balm in a silver tube that contains hyaluronic acid & thought that may be a good one to try🤞🏼💖

[@Cat-no8ts]

It seems to me that the Aquaphor is simply adding extra moisture to your under eye area, but in terms of - does it create more coverage with your makeup?, I would have to say, not really. However, more moisture under the eyes is always a good thing. I think I would try the Aquaphor strictly as an under eye moisturizer. I personally use a gel primer. I find that gels seem to work much better on my skin than creams, especially when I'm looking for a deeper moisturizing effect under my eyes. After I apply the gel, I allow it to dry and then apply my makeup. It lasts, too. And when you showed us your skin in the sunlight, I really could tell that the Aquaphor deeply moisturized your under eye area. It was beautiful! As for the mascara fallout, I do know from experience that any type of product that's in a Vaseline formulation will easily dissolve makeup of any kind, so it's not surprising that your mascara melted a bit. Just as a side note, the gel primer that I use also prevents settling in any fine lines or creases, and using a setting power just doubles the effect. Perhaps try a gel primer instead but leave the Aquaphor as an under eye moisturizer. Great video!❤

[@beautybydez]

I think you're right, Cat. I have a kind of gel which I often forget to use for my under eye - the Clinique - it's a gel cream, if that makes sense. A couple of comments have mentioned Peter Thomas Roth so I'm going to get hold of his eye gel and see how I get on. I think I've neglected my under eyes so this has been a lesson learned!

[@elizabethhamon2706]

This is a tricky one. I think if you are used to using a concealer and powder than the.”greasier”, horrible word, I realize, but I didn’t know what else to use in this case, Aquaphor will just not give you the same kind of coverage. I do think you looked really good outside! That said I have never been able to use concealer under my eyes. Or powder! It always settles in the creases and looks terrible. I think that my under eye wrinkles are my biggest problem! And I wish there was something to do to help that. Years ago, I used to get Botox into there and that helped tremendously, but They say that you have to stop doing that overtime as it really wears out that thin skin. I find myself putting an eye cream on during the day, just to keep that area looking as luminous as possible.

[@beautybydez]

Thanks Elizabeth. Interesting about Botox - my son has it in his vocal chords to help with spasmodic dysphonia. I only tried it a couple of times for my 11's, but it didnt seem to work - I ended up with sort of pillow effect above one brow 😉

[@CeinwenRMG]

Hello, Dez - This was really interesting and informative; thank you. I have heard about using lip balm for under-eye creasing but not watched any videos or tried it myself. I think that I will try it out - but with a lip balm stick that is drier than the ointment/cream formulation, as I think that might be more crease-resistant without adding oiliness. Who knows - but thanks to you, I'll give it a go!

[@beautybydez]

Thanks so much Ruth! Yes it seems as though the stick is the way to go - we just can't get it here, for some strange reason. Be interested to know if it works for you!

[@lynnewright31]

Hi Dez, I think you do need a lip balm, they say almost any kind will work. It may be becauce the stick form has a touch of wax in the formulation. For a trial run it worked pretty well, you just need to tweak it a little. I'll give it a try. God bless you and yours.

[@beautybydez]

Hi sweet Dez. I saw Gabi do this trick. Interesting to see if the cream formula works. Scott Barnes did an incredible underpinning on Tati Westbrook. She looked incredible. You look beautiful as always. Your lashes look so thick and lush! I think the regular Aquaphor is just a bit thick for the undereye area. In the States, we use it at times for diaper rash! And also for skin rashes. I'm glad that you tried this experiment. It was very interesting. Lots of love. ❤❤

Indeed you ought be Penny, considering it's been a lifelong issue for me~ one I've not ever quite mastered to my liking. Perhaps it's time I relaxed my expectations a bit, hehehe. Even in my teens, I was already buying Maybelline Cover Stick in Light, the only one available in drugstore back in the 70's. Seems there's always these percieved "flaws" we learn to live with, based on decades of extremely airbrushed magazine photos~ really a shame, imho. Simply not realistic, to say the least. I'm almost embarrassed that I still give it so much attention some days. Have definitely decided that less is more as I age~ no need to highlight what I'd rather fade into the background. A little concealer, no foundation or powder, maybe a dab of blush, & lash tint only on upper lashes ~ lip color, of course. That's it for meSammy in AZ

The tube has a different consistency.

Yes, realised that too late 😉

You have not done the actual hack- you must use the Aquafor LIP BALM which contains beeswax which will fill in any lines and lock in the moisture. I’ve done this for 3 weeks and the results are amazing for this 60 year old. If you can’t find the lip balm in the UK, any lip balm STICK should work

Yes I realised that - the tube wasnt firm enough - most lip balm sticks here contain fragrance, though, which I'm allergic to.

[@lulubellecataloni5605]

@@beautybydez if you have Chapstick there- they make a fragrance free one and Nivea has a line called Smoothness that I think is fragrance free. In any event I enjoyed your video!

[@beautybydez]

Thank you - will check them out!

The lip balm you’re using isn’t the correct one. This is a Vaseline type formula. The ones that everyone was talking about from Scott Barnes was actually the lip balm stick which is not the same consistency.

Yes, realised that rather late on - ho hum!

Hello, I've just discovered your channel. I'm 69 as well. I like you, I think you are quite funny. I have liked and subscribed, and I shall come back to see your future videos.

[@beautybydez]

Oh thank you so much - I'm so delighted!

[@ChaneltoSneakers]

No you really need to use the lip balm STICK form. The gel type is too greasy.

[@beautybydez]

You're right - ho hum 😉
