NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard - Review and Swatch

Hi everyone, I'm back with another review of the NARS Radiant Creamy concealer in the shade Custard. You might recall that I reviewed the color: Ginger last month here where I said that Ginger was a concealer I could use all over my face (not as a highlighting concealer). 

I picked up Custard and Honey on Amazon (this is what I spent my textbook trade in money on btw lol). I'll be doing another review on that Honey shade, don't you worry ;). 

For this review though, we will focus on Custard. This is a yellow toned concealer good for light to medium skin tones and a shade lighter from Ginger. 

I have been using/testing out this concealer for a week now and I love this one. It's really nice under the eyes, it blends out like a dream. It never feels heavy or looks cakey when you apply it. This is my experience though. It's really long wearing, it looks like I just applied it many hours later.

The packaging is amazing and sleek. NARS knows how to package their items...seriously it looks and feels luxurious in your hand.

The wand has a doe foot/ straight-ish applicator. It's stiff but soft, so it doesn't hurt your eye area if you apply straight from the applicator to your under eye. 

Here is the swatch of the Custard concealer. I did a heavy swatch and then a blended out one. As you can see the blended out swatch almost matches the skin under my fore arm (it's quite pale there haha). My point is, haha, that it looks like skin. There is no glitter, shimmer, sheen, or anything; but it's not 100% matte. It's basically just like skin. This is why this concealer is so popular and has a huge following among beauty bloggers and YouTubers.

I hope this was helpful for you! Have you tried these NARS concealers? If not, what's your favorite concealer or one that you are coveting?

Thanks for stopping by as always,

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Ginger - Review and Swatch

Hey everyone, how are ya doin'? I'm good myself. It's been weird adjusting to normal people life (#postgradproblems haha). But I'm here to share my thoughts on the much loved NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer.

I picked this up during the Sephora VIB sale early November and I've had a chance to try it out and I can say that I truly love this product. I used this all over my face as "foundation" and to spot conceal. It's not my favorite for under the eye, because I like a more highlighted effect for under the eyes, and this Ginger shade matches my face almost perfectly.  ~ I have picked up the lighter shades in Custard and Honey so I'll see which one I like more for under the eye. ~

I dot this concealer all over my face, more where I need it, and I spray my Real Techniques Expert Face brush with the Urban Decay All Nighter spray. Doing that really helps blend out and spread the product all over my face. I have to say, it's a nice every day kind of coverage "foundation".

Coverage: it's pretty full coverage (if applied for under the eyes; the coverage is more sheer as described above). It covers up imperfections really nicely and it blends out like buttah. It's medium but buildable to full coverage if you really need it.

Here are pictures of the product and a swatch straight from the wand and blended out :)

This packaging is just...gorgeous!

This product has a doe-foot applicator which is really nice for application under the eyes and all over the face

Overall, I'm really happy with this product. I might even like it more than my MAC Pro Longwear concealer (shhh, don't tell anyone ;) ).  Especially since this feels more creamy, as the name implies haha. :)

Have you used/tried this concealer? What are your thoughts?

Talk to you soon,
Bianca
