L'oreal Airwear - Long Wearing Concealer

This is my very first concealer. It was referred to me by one of my friends. I bought this every Bonjour for HKD 20, I believe. I can't remember anymore. It's not available anymore, I've been trying to find this item again everywhere but I can't find it anymore.

Anyway, we use this as an undereye brightener, not as a concealer. The color is too light for be to be worn as a concealer. Also, the color is too light for me to be worn as an undereye brightener for me. Maybe for my friends, it's ok, but the color doesn't suit me.

Also, this concealer is a bit drying for my skin. Whenever I apply it, it has the tendency to cracks and get dry all over my eye area. All in all, this concealer / under eye brightener is ok but not that good.

This is how its brush looks like:

This is how it looks on my skin. (NC 30 / NC 35 skin color) :

As you can see, the color of the concealer is too light for my skin color.

Boo... for Smashbox Photo Op Under Eye Brightener

I bought this a week ago because I recently noticed that I'm already having under eye circles. Yes, I know, signs of aging... I'm getting old!! And so, I tried purchasing Smashbox Photo Op Undereye Brightener to try. This is my first time to use a brightener.

Unfortunately, it's very disappointing. It doesn't really work for me, (I am a MAC NC35) and it appears transparent into my skin. It doesn't even cover my undereye circles, and it's very liquidy with an addition to the hard-to-control brush that comes with it.

I bought it for HKD 170 here in Hong Kong and wishing that I bought a MAC Powder Blush instead. (I'm a sucker for powder blushes!)

I guess I still need to find my HG Undereye Brightener! The search must go on....
