Inuovi Undercover Under-eye Dark Circle Concealer

No internet connection at home = no blogging.

Can’t upload my pictures. Can’t chat. Can’t check on my shipping status. Grrrr! Angry!

So what I can do is use my lunch hour and write my blog with whatever pictures and swatches I’ve placed into Photobucket before Internet went down at home. And pray that the line is smooth enough to do everything that I want to do. You know, sometimes the Internet in the office twice the suckiness than the one at home!

Enough of my babblings.

On to the review.

I have been using this every now and then and had done the swatches and everything and written down my thoughts about it in a notebook but I keep forgetting to post a proper review of this!

So am digging this out and giving it a proper introduction :D

Photobucket

Familiar? :D

Yeap! Inuovi Undercover Under-eye Dark Circle Concealer in 3Y.

Photobucket

It’s a light beige-y yellow with some slight peach undertone. Suits my undereyes rather well, especially after a wee bit of oxidization.

The coverage, I’d say medium and you can layer it on a little bit more if you like. However, it does tend to sink into a wee bit of my fine lines if I put it on a little too much. It does oxidize on me a little, which most of my foundation and concealer does (bad bad oily skin!), but it doesn’t look very bad on me even after oxidization. It looks even more natural after it! :D Some just turn ashy or greyish or just plain weird on me, but not for this!

Texture wise it is really lightweight and kinda runny than creamy. I like it very much because it is pretty easy to blend. I usually just put a little on the back on my hands, warm it up a little, and pat pat pat all over the eyes. Done! However, this concealer does crease on your eyelids if you have oily lids like mine. I have discolourations on my upper eyelids so I do use a bit of concealer on top. :(

It does last pretty okay, about 5 hours or so. I wore this from about 7.30am till 1pm, sitting in an air-conditioned office with minimal interaction with the hot and humid weather outside. :P After the 1 pm mark, it does fades quite a bit, maybe due to me rubbing my eyes (bad habit!) and held up till about 7 or 8 pm when I get back home and remove my makeup.

The only gripe I have with this is the dispensing of the product. Yeah it comes with a nozzle tip in a squeeze tube and it is hygienic and practical, but is that so? More often than not, I have to watch on how much pressure I apply to make sure I don’t squeeze out too much product because I only need very very little of it! >_< I don’t want to waste!

All in all, this is a decent concealer and I think this would suit those with drier skin than mine :) Retailing at approx RM60 in all Inuovi stores, try to grab it when you see it selling for 40% off! That’s how I got mine :D :D :D
