I love most things I try from Kosas. Recently I tried both their Concealer and Foundation. They do not disappoint. Kosas’s Revealer Concealer. For me I prefer to use it to lighten areas of my face as apposed to under eye concealer. It does work well under the eyes, but I prefer something a with a bit more coverage for that area. I love the applicator. It makes it really easy to apply directly to your face where you need it. It feels good on my skin and lasts. The Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation with Broad Spectrum SPF 25 is fantastic. It feels light on the skin and dries down fast. It lasts all day and night, and worked well with my other products. It gives a medium finish with a touch of glow. I think oily and dry skin would work well with it. 

of Laura Geller’s Dual Ended Concealer and Foundation Brush. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked this brush. I was using what I thought was the best out there, but this did better with my heavy liquid foundations somehow. It is dual ended which makes it great for travel. The bigger, denser, side is the part of this brush that I love. It easily spread my foundation evenly and without the need of much pressure. I found the product did not stick too much to the brush, instead staying on my skin where I want it. The smaller angled side is for concealing. For me I did not find it worked well with my liquid concealer. However, I used it as a highlighter brush with fantastic results. Since it is angled and small and can get to those angles perfectly. I think both sides would be great for contouring as well.

with my new favorite makeup brushes only! I have recently found two new faves that make my foundation and concealer look flawless. The brush I am using for my concealer is Varenti Beauty’s Pro Liquid Foundation Brush. I use a very thick concealer for under my eyes. Unfortunately it has always creased on me throughout the day. This stopped when I started buffing it in with this brush. It uses high quality bristles that are vegan and cruelty free. The hairs are secured in a special way to avoid fiber loss and keep its shape. 

For my foundation I have been using Morphe’s M439 it is a full, domed brush, that has the density to apply foundation evenly and flawlessly. It leaves your skin looking airbrushed. So brush on the glam with the best in the game.

My #1 makeup product is under eye concealer. I am always on the hunt for the most innovative and powerful brands. IT Cosmetics has impressed me with their Bye Bye Under Eye. It is a full coverage, waterproof, concealer with Hydro-collagen, vitamin c and k. This product is thick but it does not feel heavy. So cover up those bags, it’s no one’s business what , or who you were doing last night 😉

So is my absolute favorite concealer to all other concealers. Cle de Peau Concealer is not cheap. It will run you around $70. But, if you’re looking for the ultimate in concealer, especially when it comes to that hard to cover under eye area, this is the one. I prefer to warm it up with my fingers before applying to the eye area. If I want to go the extra mile I find layering Cle de Peau under lancome Effacernes waterproof under eye concealer equals perfection. Now that you’ve covered up those bags under your eyes  from partying all night, please do something about the stench of alcohol leaking out of your pores!
