Hello beauty queens! I have started a new series called drugstore comparison each week I will compare a few products together. It is time to compare 4 different drugstore concealers! Some of these I LOVE and some I HATE!
The first concealer is the Avon Cosmetics Stick Concealer, in the shade light. This concealer I hate, it was one of my first concealers as a make up starter so I didn't understand how concealers work. I personally find that this concealer is very drying and rough. When I try to use it under my eyes, I feel like I'm adding 30 years to my face because I PULL so much to work with the concealer, so I tried using it on acne and discoloration but it set right around the acne and it dried it out. BUT I use this concealer as a nude base for lipsticks, and I love it for that purpose. As far as it's packaging goes, it is a regular lipstick-like concealer and it is simple packaging for travelling and for your purse.

The second concealer is also Avon, and it is the Avon Cosmetics Roll Concealer in the shade fair. The shade is a bit off for me but I use it during winter so I get pretty pale. I don't mind this concealer, but I wouldn't use it for dark circles because it is very strong coverage. I use this for discoloration and zits. It isn't drying, it is very creamy and smooth. The packaging is slim and also lipstick-like, it is a simple black color.

The third concealer is the Maybelline Dream Lumi-touch Highlighting Concealer. This concealer is my favorite for dark circles and highlighting. I would NEVER use this for zits because it would simply highlight them and "show them off" more. It is so smooth and creamy. The packaging is like a pen with a twister bottom. I don't have words for this concealer, it is simply amazing (and cheap).

The fourth concealer is the matching concealer for my foundation. It is the Bourjois Health Mix Concealer in the shade 52. It is a little light to use on acne but perfect for dark circles. It is VERY high coverage. The consistency is very creamy and smooth. The packaging is a little disappointing and it is hard to control the amount of product that comes out. Apparently, it is also the concealer Kim Kardashian uses under her eyes before highlighting (LOVE).
