Upon posting my most-recent photo (in January/early Feb.), I received kind compliments about my "amazing skin", as well as inquiries about what I'd been using.
Kindly note: I had experienced a huge break-out on my chin that week, with some big zits on my chin. Apparently, these were invisible to both the eye and the camera. 
What had I used as a concealer & foundation? Amazing Concealer and Amazing Cosmetics Velvet Mineral Powder Foundation.
The concealer: a little goes a loooooong way,and very little is needed to camoflage big imperfections. Kindly note that I have natural, life-long, dark circles under my eyes ... dark ones, and this nearly covered them, completely.
I bid "Adieu!" to M.A.C's Studio Concealer (which I've used for 12 years), as I have found a better product ... not owned by the Lauder empire.
Amazing Cosmetics' Amazing Concealer is simply that: amazing! If you caught the review in People Magazine this week, even apes such as King Kong agree 
(sigh! M.A.C was a much cooler, better company before Lauder bought them, ten years ago!) |

I've been eyeing the Amazing Cosmetics range at Sephora.com for the longest time. So happy EDS is now carrying it.
How's the texture of the concealer? Would I need an eyecream before using on my dark circles? |

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't mineral oil comedogenic?? I think I also read that lanolin was too. There was a website I found that listed how comedogenic and how irritating different ingredients were.
here it is:

Ok, I was wrong. It got a zero on the comedogenic factor! And I guess lanolin is only comedogenic when it's acetylated lanolin! |
