MAC Studio Sculpt Concealer Review

When I bought this concealer, my main reasons for buying it were for covering up bad acne and redness on my skin as well as using it as an under eye concealer. The price I paid for it at the time was £12.50 but supspect that from the recent VAT rise the price will have increased.

I bought this concealer around March, 2010 and I still have about 3/4's of the pot left! I have to tell you, a little bit goes a long way!

The shade of my Studio Sculpt Concealer is NW15, which for me is almost perfect, maybe just a bit too light for my ridiculously pale skin, but it works well colour-wise in the winter!

The texture of this concealer is very thick, hence why I say a little bit goes a long way. You do not need to pack loads of the concealer onto your concealer brush/ring finger, I made this mistake the first time I used it and ended up with cakey concealer which creased around the eyes. I would personally recommend building the concealer gradually if you are wanting more than good coverage rather than put alot on all at once.

This concealer is really good for covering up all types of acne, believe me, I've had it. It covers up redness of acne extremely well without the need to put loads of the concealer on the acne which can sometimes make it worse. If you are thinking of purchasing this product for an under eye concealer, don't! This concealer is extremely thick and doesn't work well under your eyes. No matter what primers I have tried, none of them have managed to stop this concealer from creasing and looking ghastly by the end of the day, if you don't want it to crease, don't smile or make any expression on your face, I can't do that!

If you have dry skin, this concealer is not for you, Studio Sculpt concealer has a thing to magnetically attract itself to any dry areas on you face and it doesn't look great. If you have oily skin (like me) I believe this concealer is fine for you, with it's texture it's pretty tough to budge of your face even with the oil from your skin!

The product blends well on the skin, but if you are finding it a problem, try using your fingers to apply it as body heat will warm up the concealer and help it blend more naturally, this is what I tend to do everytime I use it.
