Mini Review: Maybelline Fit Me Concealer

Ahh, concealer. How I love your ability to make me look awake, even if I feel like a zombie. c: I love, love, LOVE my Shiseido cream concealer, but unless I've primed/blotted/set with powder it sinks into the fine lines under my eyes. D: Tragic, but it's still the best concealer ever.

HOWEVER. I am very, very lazy. So I was looking for a less creamy concealer so I could just swipe it on and go (8 am classes, anyone?). Enter Maybelline's Fit Me concealer.

(And their marketing is so effective- now I feel incomplete not owning the rest of the line. ._. Words fail me, Maybelline).

The lip gloss-esque doe foot applicator is an epic idea but vaguely unhygienic.

My hand is darker than my face, lolol. It doesn't actually give me reverse panda eyes (Dream Lumi Touch, I'm looking at you).

This is in the shade 10, which is darker than 15 because Maybelline had a major logic fail. The consistency is quite thin, but medium coverage, which is nice because it doesn't feel like you're actually wearing anything. I just dab it on with the applicator and blend it with my fingers (which defeats the whole purpose of the applicator but I loathe rules, obviously). The only cons are the price (it was around $10 for the tube, which really isn't all that big) and the unhygienicness (it's a word now, dictionary. Suck it.) of the applicator.
It's easy to find your match, it's a nice blendable concealer, and it works wonders on dark circles, so I'd say you definitely ought to pick one up. c:

Mini Review: Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

*Edit: I've never tried any proper BB creams, so I'm judging this according to its own merits. (/^▽^)/

I fully blame Bookpanda for causing my makeup obsession to be reignited (which has had the unfortunate side effect of greatly depleting the money I had squirreled away). Ahaha, makeup. ❤ How I love thee~
Anyways, I ventured to Walgreens with Bookpanda, and ended up buying a couple things that I've been eying for a while~

Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream, Wet n Wild Coloricon eyeliner, Maybelline FitMe concealer

The tube is small, but sooo cute! I got this in the shade Light/Medium.

I have actually noticed most of these, although the effects are subtler than they would have you believe.

Originally, there was a silver seal over the opening, which I think is nice. That way you know no one's tried the product!

Right: I just blobbed some onto my hand. Left: Blended out.

Here, it's blended all over the right side of my hand. You can see the brightening effect!

I freaking adore this BB cream. ❤ It's sheer, but it really does blur out freckles and even out your skin tone (I don't get pimples, so I'm afraid I don't know how well this would work with them). On my hand it's a little light, but on my face the color is just perfect, with a nice brightening effect. The finish is dewy, though, so if you have very oily skin it would be a good idea to set it with powder. However, on someone with just an oily T-zone, like me, it stays put all day. (｡◕‿◕｡)

The only gripe I have is that the tube does tend to get messy, and it's also hard to control how much product you're squeezing out.

Overall Rating: 5/5 I love this, and definitely suggest picking one up for yourself. c:
