In this review, I talk about all the aspects that make this concealer my go-to concealer and why it’s ideal for dry and aging skin.

About My Skin: Dark circles and dryness, prone to creasing

Since hitting my 30s, I’ve noticed a huge skin texture change. It’s hard to believe I once struggled with oily skin. Now I have dry skin and the most noticeable area is under-eye circles and dryness which often results in creased eye makeup. In my opinion, it defeats the whole purpose of makeup.

Another issue I have is that since my skin is officially ‘aging’, it suffers from loss of volume and dullness. Ever since using the Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Concealer, creasing has been a thing of the past and my under-eyes have been brighter too. I’ve been using it for about a year now, and I still love it despite trying out many other concealers in between!

I am using the shade 110 which is light with cool pink undertones.

How I Apply Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Concealer

After my moisturizer has set, I apply foundation which is currently the Armani Neo Nude Tinted Moisturizer. Then I get started on concealer.
Using the doe foot applicator, I apply small triangles, or dots to the areas I want to be covered. The concealer is highly pigmented and a little goes a long way, use sparingly and build up if necessary. I apply a thin layer of concealer because I prefer a more no-makeup-makeup look.
To blend the concealer in, I use a damp beauty blender or fingers (if I’m feeling lazy!) and slowly dab the concealer into my skin. It has a smooth and creamy texture that’s easy to blend. Read my concealer hacks for acing your concealer.
Before the concealer dries, I lightly apply setting powder over my foundation and concealer.
Once I’ve completed all of my makeup, I spray my UD All-Nighter Setting Spray over my face for long-lasting makeup.

Usage Experience & Results

Buildable Coverage

The concealer has a lovely creamy texture which makes it extremely easy to build up to a full coverage. I prefer a medium-coverage so tend to apply only one layer. But even with medium coverage, it covers my dark circles and dark spots.

No Creasing Or Settling Into Fine Lies

My favorite feature of the concealer is how it doesn’t crease or settle into my fine lines. Once blended into my skin, you can’t see I’m wearing concealer at all. One point to take note of is that I moisturize my skin twice a day, hydrated skin is a necessity if you want any makeup to sit nicely.

Longwearing Results

The concealer lasts intact all day without creasing or fading. I do use setting powder and setting spray which helps with its staying powers, but I always have, and many concealers struggled to last the day. Not this one.

The Value: Worth every penny

While the Pro Filt’r Concealer is on the expensive end, for me, it’s worth it because of its ease of use and the beautiful results that it gives. I love a flawless under-eye and this concealer gives me exactly that!

Final Verdict

Pros

It doesn’t crease.
It covers dark circles and blemishes.
Buildable coverage without looking cakey.
Comes in 50 versatile shades.

Cons

Pricey.

My goal was for concealer to cover my dark circles without creasing and brighten my under-eye area.

I am very satisfied with the results! My under eyes appear more glowing which is a nod to the radiant aspect of the formula, but, the best part is that the concealer remains crease-free the entire day, without compromising on its coverage.

The One That Got Away

By Terry Hyaluronic Hydra-Concealer

I really wanted to love this concealer, but its biggest drawback is that it only comes in a few shades, of which the lightest was way too dark for my skin. The By Terry Hyaluronic Hydra-Concealer is ideal for aging and mature skin because 87% of its ingredients are skincare, making it the ideal hybrid concealer and eye cream, too bad about the poor shade range.
