Hey girls, do you use concealer? I have always think of a concealer as an extra step. I normally use high coverage foundations so that I don’t have to use a separate concealer. On skin happy days, when I don’t have much imperfections, I don’t wear a foundation. On those days I need a concealer to touch up here or there. I got this Maybelline Fit Me Concealer as I had great experience with the Fit Me Foundation. I mostly use this concealer for my under eye area, for concealing as well as for brightening.

Packaging:
Comes in a sleek tube with wand at the back. Travel friendly.
Texture, Consistency & Smell:
Creamy consistency which sets off in matte finish. Sets within few seconds. Smells funny.
Shade I got:
Sand Sable 20. This shade was advised by the SA which was attending me while I bought it. This shade would go on light to light medium skin tones with yellow undertones. It is little light for my wheatish skin tone. Can be used as a eye highlighter too.
How To Use:
Take some concealer at the back of your hand with the help of the wand provided with the concealer. Then apply on the spot/under eye area need to be corrected. Lightly dab on the concealer until it is evenly applied. A concealer must be dabbed on and not to be rubbed to get the desired result.

My Experience:
I have used it while wearing a foundation as well as without wearing anything at all. It has fared well in both the situations. Its consistency is creamy but sets off in matte finish. There is no creasing when applied on my under eye area. Since the shade I got is little light, it does not look ashy but still lighter than my skin tone. So it basically works as an under eye highlighter too.
So as I mentioned above, in the How To Use section, I dab on little product under my eyes or on some blemish I wish to conceal and then lightly pat on until it disperse on my skin completely.
Coming to the coverage part, coverage could be built from medium to high. It covers spots easily.
Being creamy in consistency, it blends into the skin very easily and quickly giving a matte finish. It looks natural. No white cast or ashy looking face.
It is not water proof. If you splash water on to the concealer it won’t come off, but if you rub it little, it would come off easily.
The staying power is decent. If worn alone it goes on for 4-5 hours. If worn over a foundation, it goes for longer hours. Better to wear a primer before wearing the concealer for better performance.
