Product:

Annabelle BB Skin Perfect Concealer in Light is pretty opaque concealer and has a dryer/waxier base to it.

Rimmel Hide The Blemish Concealer in Neutraliser 201 is a creamy finish concealer and fairly emollient.

Styli-Style COOL & COVERED - in Ivory is also a waxier based concealer and dryer on the skin to apply. I also apply fairly opaque.

L'Oreal True Match™ Super-Blendable Crayon Concealer in N1-2-3 is a waxier base concealer but also slightly sheer.

Revlon Photo Ready Concealer in 0001 Fair is pretty nice fomula, it both emollient and fairly opaque

Covergirl and Olay concealer Balm in 310 Fair is also a creamy finish concealer and fairly emollient as well. It has good coverage.

Colour:

Annabelle BB Skin Perfect Concealer in Light is a warm tone shade closer to MAC NC20

Rimmel Hide The Blemish Concealer in Neutraliser 201 (fair shade) is a true neutral shade that is closer to NC15 but is less yellow tone.

Styli-Style COOL & COVERED - Aloe Concealer in Ivory (Light) is also a neutral skin done that is darker then the Rimmel one.

L'Oreal True Match™ Super-Blendable Crayon Concealer in N1-2-3 (Fair/Light) is a warm tone that is slightly lighter then the Annabelle one. Look more like a MAC NC25 in shade.

Revlon Photo Ready Concealer in 0001 Fair is a warm/peach tone shade as well.

Covergirl and Olay concealer Balm in 310 Fair is the darkest out of all of these with a strong peach tone to it.


Wear:

Annabelle and Styli-Style were close to 6-7 hours wear without a powder to set it.

Revlon Photo Ready and L'Oreal True Match™ Concealer were close to 5 hours wear without a powder to set it.

Rimmel and Covergirl and Olay were close to 3-4 hours wear without a powder to set it and has a tendency to separate slightly.


Packaging: All are twist up crayons or lipstick size bullets.

Verdict
I originally have photo's of these covering my dark circle but for the most part they all looked the same to me when you first apply these which was 90% converged over the blue on their own.

My favourites are Revlon Photo Ready Concealer if for dry skin and for longer wear time the Annabelle BB Skin Perfect Concealer or if your have oilier skin.

  2. This is a magical post! I'm Canadian, have super fair skin, and dry skin, and needed info on concealer sticks. My Covergirl in light is too dark, and drying..it flakes off. Thankfully I got it for free. Looks like I'm gonna try the Revlon photoready or the Annebelle BB :)
