Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer Review



As a new mum, I seem to constantly look exhausted, so I need all the help I can get. On days where the dark circles under my eyes are particularly heavy, I always reach for this cult classic concealer. 

The luxurious lightweight and creamy texture is perfect for concealing under the eyes. Because it has light reflecting pigments it makes the under-eye look brighter and more awake. 

Other concealers can be a little to heavy to use around the delicate eye area, as they can often crease and look too heavy. This one is perfect; not too heavy and it doesn't tend to crease in the fine lines under my eyes. 


Of course the concealer is not just for under-eyes, because its non-comedogenic you can use it on spots as it won't clog pores. However I do not find that it is the right type of concealer to use on spots as it tends to highlight them, rather than conceal them (I've had other people say the opposite to this, so that might just be my experience with the product) 

The coverage is medium to heavy, depending on how many layers you wish to apply, and because the product is so light and creamy its easy to build, without it looking heavy and cakey on the skin. 


As you can see from the pictures below, the concealer is rather 'glowy' but not at-all glittery. You can also use the concealer as a highlighter to highlight aspects of your face. 

There are so many shades to choose from too (Mine is the lightest shade; Chantilly) So you will find it easy to find your perfect shade. 

Yes, it's a very expensive concealer at £24 a pop, but it is honestly the best on the market. Also if you want to try before you buy, Nars now offer a travel size version. 

If you suffer from dark circles and want to look a little less shit first thing in the morning, then this is the concealer for you.

MAC Strobe Cream Mini Review

Strobing is something I'd never even heard of until I started watching Rupauls Drag Race a few years ago (in the Sharon Needles Era: AKA the good ol' days!) Strobing has been described as overdone highlighting: However strobing to me is not only highlighting certain facial features but also adding dimension and texture to the area too. Admittedly, its not something I would bother doing every day. But on special occasions I like to highlight my favourite features (usually my cheekbones)  I received the MAC Strobe Cream as a little try-out sample after buying too many lipsticks over on the MAC website. I was pretty chuffed as I've wanted to try out the Strobe Cream for ages now!  MAC describe the Strobe Cream as 'a  moisturiser that boosts the look of dull skin and luminises with iridescent particles' So perfect for my tired skin that needs a bit of a boost!  I love the little packaging, in fact I would say I'm a bit obsessed with miniature ve...

Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer Review

I'm obsessed with concealers, and I'm always on the hunt for the perfect one! I currently use the Nars Radiant Concealer ( Review Here ) for under my eyes and the Benefit Boi-ing Concealer for spots etc.  I recently purchased the Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer as I'd read good reviews online and I wash hoping it might be a dupe for my trusty Nars Concealer.  Firstly there is one massive downside to this concealer: There are only THREE Shades! That just seems lazy! Especially in this day and age where you can purchase some concealers which have over 30 shades to choose from!  I have the shade 'Light' and for once, it is indeed actually Light! It's gorgeously pale (it may even be too pale for some people, so I would suggest swatching it next to the other shades if unsure)  It is specifically designed for the delicate eye area and it offers 24 hour hydration to the area around the eyes to offer hydration throughout the day, leaving eyes...

Balance Me Rose Otto Face Oil Review

An oil for your face? Yes, Yes, Yes! If you would have told me years ago, when I was a hormonal teenager with many breakouts to use oil on my face I would have laughed at you, but the Balance Me Rose Otto Face Oil, has made such a difference to my skin, I am a complete oil convert.  I have quite red, sensitive, often sore skin and this calms it right down. Its deeply nourishing and hydrating. I've heard it described as a conditioner for the skin.  I usually use it a night when my skin is looking dry and frazzled. As you can see with the roller-ball application, you just roll it onto the skin (I swipe across each cheek and my forehead) and then gently massage into the skin. Its just such a gorgeous and luxurious feeling treat for the skin.  It has never broke me out and it has kept my skin feeling and looking a lot more luminous. It doesn't make my skin shinny and doesn't leave any kind of weird residue on the skin; leaving my skin feeling moisturised and l...
