As Good As They Say? NYX HD Concealer


Today's product in the limelight is the NYX HD Concealer. I see this all the time in my Instagram feed, and people actually say this is good. I, of course, had to see for myself. I got it in the shade CW05 Medium and it costs Php 360. That's not a bad price point. 



It has a doe foot wand applicator so this is great for controlled use of the product. I was quite surprised upon discovering that this concealer has actually strong pink undertones. I should have swatched it, instead of just picking it up. They do have a yellow undertone shade which is Beige and I'm considering purchasing that one as well when I come across a NYX store again.


As can be seen, it looks really pink against my yellow skin.


Once blended out, the pinkness is still apparent.

I cannot use this on my face unless I want to look like a patched cow. But under the eyes, this concealer is phenomenal! I put it under foundation as a color corrector and it works great! Of course, I apply the foundation on with a beauty blender so as not to disturb the concealer and I only wait until its fully set. Which is quite a hassle if you're in a hurry, but if you have extra time, it really makes a huge difference.

This concealer hardly creases and when baked, will never crease at all. It won't quit until you want it to. It's very pigmented so it will really cover up and not just camouflage.

I'm really enjoying this concealer so far. So much, that I am considering buying other shades, hopefully my storage can take it lol! My acrylic cosmetics organizer is becoming overloaded. I need a new storage solution. But at Php 360, you just can't go wrong.
