High Street vs High End- which concealer is better?

Hello everyone,

Now, being a very tired girl I need my concealer in the mornings to brighten up my face and hide the bag under my eyes.
I am quite fussy when it comes to concelears, but my all time favourite has to be the "Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer". I just find it so light and easy to blend however the coverage is actually insane. My under eyes go from dull and dark to looking awake and bright.
Although compared to some concealers this Urban Decay one is pretty reasonable (£19), it is still quite pricey for just one product, which is why I have been on the hunt for a drug store dupe.

The other day I went into Superdrug and I saw an updated version of the "L'Oreal True Match The One Concealer". For some reason it just reminded me of the Naked Concealer when I swatched the tester, so I picked it up for just £7.99. The colour range was amazing with both rose tinted and yellow tinted options available, going from pale to dark. Seeing as I have pale skin I picked up the lightest rose tint shade available, which was perfect for me: "Ivory Rose".

Both concealers side by side 
As you can see by the image, both concealers have a very similar applicator- of which I really enjoy as it makes it easy to apply the 'triangle' under your eyes. At first glance both products look somewhat similar, except the Loreal product is slightly more pink toned. Although I like this as it suits my skin tone well, the Naked concealer really brightens my face as it is slightly paler than my actual skin tone- which personally for me is a rare occurrence being so pale!

The only way to truly test these concealer is to try them both. I am going to put the L'oreal concealer under my left eye (right in the picture) and the Naked concealer under my right eye (left in the picture).


Before (Naked faced me oh my god how tragic)


After


So as you can see both concealers make quite a considerable difference (actual life savers). And I cant believe I'm saying this but I think the left eye (right eye on the picture) looks slightly better- which is the cheaper L'Oreal concealer. Now although you wouldn't look at me and think she is wearing two different concealers, I can definitely see one eye looks better than the other.

"The better concealer"


I hope this has proved that the 'cheaper' products can actually be the better products- which is why I have started to buy more affordable makeup and less pricey makeup.
Please let me know what you think of these concealers or if there is a better one you think I need in my life!

A Constellation of Quotes for the Innovators

Radical innovation rarely comes from incumbents (Laurent Haug). No candle maker has become a bulb manufacturer, no carriage maker has become a car producer and the post office did not invent the email (Marc Giget). Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward. Maybe they have to be crazy. How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels? While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the peop...

The Big Dangers of Belly Fat

Image
Many people want to whittle their midsections to look better and fit into that next-size-down pair of pants. But reducing belly fat brings many more benefits than just aesthetics — you could be significantly reducing your health risks. Although getting to, and maintaining, a healthy weight is important for a number of reasons, belly fat reduction is particularly crucial. BELLY FAT CULPRITS The major contributor causing your belly to get more abundant than you’d like is what you eat, says Dr. David Ludwig, a professor of nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Sugary food, including highly processed fare, can cause a blood-sugar spike that triggers an insulin release throughout the body. Over time, that creates the need for this energy to get stored if it’s not used — and the body’s favorite storage area is the belly. Fat around your midsection can also get stored due to high levels of cortisol, the hormone responsible for your stress response. Getting too little sle...
