Product:
The Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer is a light creme formula that has a good amount of pigmentation for it thinner coverage. It actually has less coverage compared to the Too Faced Born This Way Foundation but it does have a natural finish to the skin like the MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Concealer. It also has more coverage compared to the MUFE Ultra HD Concealer.

I did find these creased in my lower eyelid folds but once you tap it out it's ok throughout the day.

The Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème is a thicker full coverage concealer with a creamy texture while working with it. It does also set on its own and despite how thick it is it's nice to blend it out with a longer working time compared to the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer.

I did find these creased very slightly in my lower eyelid folds but not as bad compared to the rest of these high-end concealers I've mentioned in this post. A setting powder also helps with that.

Colour:
Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer:
Light is a peach yellow nude tone.
Fair is a pink nude tone that is darker than light.
Very Fair is a pink nude bisque tone.
(Am Ithe only one that feel these shades are too saturated for skin tones?)

Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème:
Light 3 is a light warm yellow nude tone.
Light 11 is a warm olive/yellow nude tone.

Kat's concealer range seem to be more yellow in the Warm shades and more pink in the Neutral shade when it comes to her light concealer. I very much appreciated that the light warm tones are no peach!


Wear: Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer wears close to 10 hours on bare skin.
Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème  wears close to 15 hours on bare skin

You can make both last longer with setting it with a powder or a primer underneath.

Packaging:
 Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer is in a plastic jar with a thin applicator wand. The Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème is in a plastic jar with a thin teardrop wand that concaves in to grab extra product.

This one blends really naturally into my skin texture.

The red freckles are my pores that I didn't pounce the product into them with a sponge (I used my fingers to blend these out in photos) This is not an issue just my laziness. But it does illustrate how much redness gets covered up my this concealer.

Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème in Light 3 & NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly.
Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème in Light 11, & NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard.
Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer Very Fair is WAY darker (about 3X) and peachier compared to the Too Faced Born This Way Foundation in Snow which I think is a big nono for a shade called very fair.

Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème in Light 3 is darker and warmer than the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly. The KvD Light 11 is really close to the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard.

Some more Swatches:Because I was in Sephora and they have MOST of the shades of the Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème (except the white one) I wanted to compare the 4 lightest shades to see if my choice in Light 3 was right for me. I also added the new Smashbox Studio Skin 24 Hour Waterproof Concealer as well.

Daylight & Flash swatches: Row 1 Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème in Light 1, Light 3, Light 5, & Light 7.
Row 2 NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly.
Row 3 Smashbox Studio Skin 24 Hour Waterproof Concealer Fai & Fair Light.
Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème in
Light 1 is a pale off white that leans on the pink side
Light 3 looks a little more pink compared to Light 5 which lean a little more orange.
Light 7 is a 'banana' style concealer that leans more toward the yellow end of things.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly is a true neutral fair shade (Yes for a brand that understanding pale girl are desaturated!)

Smashbox Studio Skin 24 Hour Waterproof Concealer in Fair is a pale neutral shade (paler than all the other fair shade in this lot), and the Fair Light lean more towards the yellow-orange range of concealers.
Verdict
The Too Faced Born This Way Natually Radiant Concealer I feel like is a more pigmented version of the MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Concealer they way it looks on the skin is more natural compared to a fuller coverage concealer.

Now the Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème is a lighter formula in density compared to the
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, but it still packs a punch in the coverage department! I'm excited to get a Full size of White and Light 3 later one this year. ;)

  1. Thanks for the breakdown! This was really helpful, I'm on the hunt for a new concealer. So many I've tried are way too dark for my super pale skin.

    1. Yeah it's such a pain for both foundation and concealer option for fair/pale people. Kat's White looks promising if the formula is the same I can add that to any product. ;)
