Denise discovers something Amazing

One of the most important products in my makeup bag is my concealer. A good concealer can hide the inevitable effects of those times when I let my normally healthy lifestyle slip a little: late-night under-eye bags, nutrition-deficiency pallor, caffeine-induced dehydration, you name it. I've tried so many different concealers over the years, and have been only moderately pleased with a few. However, I'm now in a whole new concealer ballpark, so to speak, since I tried Amazing Concealer ($40) by Amazing Cosmetics.

This product lives up to its name: it really is amazing. Amazing Concealer is a highly concentrated and very emollient peach-based concealer that works wonders on everything from under-eye circles to birthmarks and rosacea. The company claims that a tube will last about a year, which at first was somewhat difficult to believe, but now I see that claim is probably true. I use just a tiny dab on my finger each day, and it completely camouflages my under-eye bags and the few broken capillaries on my cheeks that I would normally use both foundation and regular concealer to cover up. It lasts all day long without creasing, as long as it is applied correctly. I learned that lesson the first day - if the product isn't blended completely, or if it's applied too heavily, it will crease. It's even waterproof, which is a bonus during these hot Arizona summer days, when I have the tendency to jump into any swimming pool I come across in an effort to escape the heat!

I've been using Golden Light, which is for fair beige skin tones. There are seven shades to choose from, ranging from White to Dark - there is sure to be one to match any complexion. You can snatch up your own tube at amazingconcealer.com or at Beauty.com.
