Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away Concealer #6 Medium
I was very kindly sent a full size of the CT Magic Away Concealer in the shade #6 medium (I also attended the launch event for it so had the chance to see it applied to a model alongside the newly launched powder). I've had roughly two weeks to try this product and here are my thoughts:Packaging - LOVED it! Half of my interest in the product was guided, dare I say, by the absolutely stunning gold packaging. To add who doesn't appreciate the cute little product-quantity revealing window on the tube? This is such a stunning and handy innovative creation that I would happily buy two, one for useage and the other to just sit pretty on my vanity table!
Formula - This is a manageable slightly thick liquid formula which spreads beautifully and blends even nicer! The formula is waterproof which is helpful where I tend to get watery eyes being a contact lense wearer. The formula works in tandem with those of us that have evident fines around our eyes. This is thanks to the inclusion of Palmitoyal Glycine, also known as the Bliss Molecule, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is a major plus for me as my eyes are showing signs of ageing faster than any part of my face.
The product also contains Persian Silk Tree Bark Extract which the website states 'can contribute to the illusion of a lifted upper eyelid, as well as reducing the appearance of crow’s feet wrinkles and fading dark circles'. I have a considerable gap between my brows and eyes and the drooping of the upper lid is definitely noticeable on my eyes. This product makes addressing the issue a win situation.
In line with the baking and under eye highlighting trend, this product does it all.
This is thanks to it containing Extract of Wild Indigo, which is used to enhance skin luminosity. This is perfect as I love a luminous appearance under my eyes completed with a flick of liner and mascara for a simple work-appropriate day time look.
Coverage - this is a full coverage concealer. It follows that I find a tad goes a very very long way with this product! Thus excellent value for money. Also some people will find that there is little need for use of foundation when using the concealer. This effectively covers dark circles and imperfections quite effortlessly.
Longevity - the product sets itself quite well, no doubt use of a powder with it will only extend its wear. This product in itself lasts a generous amount to time, even on oily skin types.
Applicator - this has a sponge applicator to it. For hygiene reasons I will always ensure that my skin is totally clean before using and I only apply the once.
All in all this has been a brilliant product to use. I will definitely be going out and repurchasing this once I've finished the current tube.
Love,
GSA.
