- Texture: Very soft & creamy. At first I thought it was too greasy, but once I figured out how to apply it, I LOVED it!
- Scent: None really.
- Visual Attractiveness: Sleek tube!
- How Much I Needed: A little more than I did with conventional concealers, but less than all of the other natural concealers I've tried. It covered well! YAY!
- How Long I've Used It: About a month.
- Where to Find: VapourBeauty.com
- Sample Sizes: Not that I know of, but they totally should! It's really hard to match makeup colors over the Internet sometimes!!
- Acquired: Sent to me to be reviewed with my honest opinion.
- Loved: The amount of coverage I got from it, and that it didn't feel too heavy! I also got the color right the first try over the Internet (which is like a cold chance in hell for me, Lol).
- Hated: That the product is too soft to be in a stick/ tube, and that I can't tell how much is left before I have to re-order.
- The GG's Final Thoughts: So far this is the best natural/ organic concealer I have found yet! Most have been too greasy, too dry, gritty, were too shear, creased, didn't wear well, stay on, or looked like dirt on my face, etc. At first I thought this was too greasy for me, but the second time I tried it- I used way less, and let it set for a minute- then applied a little pressed powder over it- and fell in LOVE! It has stayed put every time I've worn it so far. I wish Vapour had a pressed powder of their own, wink, wink ;)! I normally would like the convenience of a stick- but in this case, I felt that the product was waaaaay too soft! :( I would much rather apply it from a pot/ jar (with a concealer brush). I also had a little trouble getting the product to twist up / back down in the tube. Every time I use it, the concealer stick gets stuck on the way up- then there's too much or collapses down and squishes out the sides... this is a royal pain, especially when I want to close the tube! Grrr!! I also wish there was a better way that I could tell when I might run out so I can re-order more (which might be easier to estimate in a jar). As far as choosing the correct color for my skin- I actually found the "How To Wear" tab on the product description to be really helpful. All in all, the coverage is AWESOME, the shade matches my skin PERFECTLY, and it wears FABULOUSLY (this is coming from a reformed MAC-addict)! I really LOVE this product and would definitely buy it again... hopefully in a different container though! Here's to a beautiful new relationship... Thanks Vapour! xo
