I haven't done a product review in so long, I have missed it as these really are my favourite type of posts to write. As my exams are a matter of weeks away I haven't had the time to try out many products. I went into MAC as I was looking for a natural looking, lighter concealer as summer is coming up and I want my face to breathe as much as possible and feel like its got as little makeup on.
The woman at MAC advised this one so I went with it as I haven't tried many concealers by MAC as my pro-long wear is my holy grail concealer and I swear by it. I cant be happier with the pro-long wear but its quite drying on the skin which is manageable in the winter but feels too dry in the summer so I needed a change.
I picked up the shade NC20 which is the shade I usually get and the match was perfect which I expected. I really recommend MAC if you have difficulty matching your skin colour, you're 100% going to find it at MAC they offer so many colours for all types of skin.
To start of with, the coverage on this concealer is medium which isn't the look I usually go for. I personally go for the high coverage look when it comes to concealer as I have very dark under eyes and want to make sure no one can see them. At first I could deal with the coverage and throughout the day it felt light and very nice on the skin. Sadly, as the day goes on the concealer starts to crease and looks disgusting on the skin. If you take it around with you and are bothered to top up your concealer every hour then I would recommend it. But I personally don't check my makeup often whilst i'm out, so walking around with severely creased under eyes is not for me.

The brush applicator is different I didn't know MAC offered anything like this. The brush doesn't pick up much product which can get a little annoying. I don't generally like brushes for my concealer application but I have only ever used drugstore brush concealers so I thought that MAC as a high end brand would offer a better brush. I was very wrong.
All in all, I don't think this concealer is worth its price, I wouldn't repurchase it even if it only cost a couple pounds due to how disgusting it looks when it creases under the eyes. Im still on the hunt for a high coverage concealer which is reasonably priced for the summer so if you have any recommendations please let me know.
