I have a love/hate relationship with Pacifica, some of their products
I absolutely LOVE but others..... not so much. So far out of their 4
concealer products I have tried all of them and they are all meh, some
of that is my own fault though. I have a hard time using correctly color
correcting concealers, like how much blending is too much? Do I cover
them with skin toned concealer (I'm pretty sure you do)?
Dreamlit Under Eye Brightener
This is probably my favorite of the concealers, but I don't use it as an under eye concealer or brightener, I use it as a cream highlighter. I think this under my eyes makes me look older and emphasizes all the little lines I have on my under eyes. One this both of the tube concealers have in common is that they are both rather thin, watery formulas. This one has no real pigment to it, other than the shimmers. It doesn't appear glittery though (like the coconut shimmer trio). While it is nice as a cream highlighter it still isn't leaps and bounds better than any other cream highlighter. Like, I wouldn't buy this again just to use as a cream highlighter.
Transcendent Concentrated Concealer
The Transcendent concealer is strange, it is really light and liquidy, but it looks super cakey on the skin. This concealer line only have two shade options: light and natural..... like who do these even work for? The light shade, which is the one I have, is very orange and too dark for my fair/light skin tone. I've tried mixing it with a moisturizer to make a tinted moisturizer but it still looks cakey, which is really odd because I use way less product doing that than if I were using it as a concealer. I think this would probably work better on someone with a darker skin tone than me and someone who is more oily than dry. This again is another product I wouldn't buy again!
Blemish Banish Concentrated Mineral Correcting Creams
Like I said above I don't fully understand how to use color correctors? Do I blend them out all the way or just a little bit? I don't know, I don't know why I bought these! However, I can tell when a cream is good or not and these are a little gritty if you don't warm them up enough with your fingers. They definitely work better with fingers and a beauty blender than a brush. I do think these can get a bit cakey especially because you have to put another concealer over them. I don't know if I would repurchase these....
Dark Circle Rehab Concentrated Correcting Creams
Again, these are products I don't get, but I really want to especially because I have the worst dark circles under my eyes all of the time. These are also a bit gritty if you don't warm them up enough and they can look a little cakey under they eyes, especially. I am interested in trying the purple shade mixed with a primer to brighten my complexion. I'll update how this goes in the big Pacifica post I'm planning.
Have you tried any of these concealers, and if you have what do you think of them?
