Revolution Conceal and Hydrate Radiance Concealer Review

Hi Divas

Affordable and good quality products are always a delight to discover, especially in this crazy economy. Thankfully Makeup Revolution sets the bar very high regarding makeup on a budget that can rival any high-end cosmetics. The Revolution Conceal and Hydrate Radiance Concealer is an excellent option for those who want high-end results that are light on the wallet. This concealer is a sibling to the famous Revolution Conceal and Define Concealer. I loved the original concealer as it worked well for my combination skin and covered my flaws effortlessly. I have heard people found this version too drying for their skin type as the formula was matte. Hence Revolution came out with a hydrating variant. Since I have been getting older, I have been gravitating to more hydrating products. I am looking for a concealer to cover my puffy under eyes, brighten dark circles and ensure crease-proof longevity.

The Conceal and Hydrate Radiance concealer is packaged in a slimmer tube in contrast to its stubby predecessor. It has a sleek rose gold design and contains 13g of product. The formula is infused with Hyaluronic Acid along with Acai extracts. Hyaluronic Acid is well known to moisturise skin and keep it hydrated all day. Acai derives from the Acai berry and is popular for reducing skin dullness and promoting luminosity. Both ingredients are highly beneficial for radiant, moisturised and smooth under eyes. The concealer has a whopping 50 shade range. Each concealer is categorised into fair, medium and deep skin tones alongside their different undertone shades, such as yellow, neutral, pink, olive and golden. I chose the shade C8.5 as it was described as medium skin with a yellow undertone. This concealer is lighter than my skin tone because I love a super bright under eye effect. 

The concealer has a creamy texture and is quite thick in consistency. A little goes a long way as the product has excellent pigment and covers a large surface area when blended. It has medium coverage but can comfortably build up to full coverage as more product is applied. The doe foot applicator is medium in size and picks up quite a bit of product. One swipe is enough for me to cover my under eyes and top lid with a beauty blender. Speaking of blending, I prefer to use a makeup sponge rather than my fingers or brush with this product. As I mentioned above the concealer is quite thick and blending it out with a wet sponge gives me a flawless and even application. I follow up with the Makeup Revolution baking powder in translucent. This combination gives me a beautiful natural blurred under eye. 

 The concealer gives a radiant and sheer satin finish. It covers all my dark and puffy areas. My skin looks naturally fresh and smooth. The concealer wears well for many hours and does not crease or flake throughout the day. Some hydrating concealers tend to move around in warm weather and under sweat. Not this one! This formula is long-lasting and wears well even on hot days. I love that my under eyes feel breathable and not heavy or cakey. The coverage is medium to full on blemishes and pigmentation marks. It covers well and many layers can be added to hide flaws. This is an excellent hydrating concealer for my combination skin. Did I mention that it is vegan and cruelty-free too? Have you tried this concealer? I absolutely love it. Let me know your thoughts down below.
