This Concealer…FitMe

I had to share one of my longtime favorite concealers. It’s the FitMe concealer by Maybelline. I’ve probably been using this concealer for at least four years. It became so routine I just forgot to mention it. I was using it more as a highlighting concealer until I picked up another shade while browsing in Target. I use the lighter shade (Sand)  underneath my eyes, down the bridge of my nose, underneath my eyebrows. I picked up the color Cafe for a little color correction and then apply my Black Opal Creme Stick. These two products together makes for a flawless makeup look.

This product is so creamy and has good coverage, especially for less than $5.   It’s definitely worth picking up.

I absolutely loved Maybelline’s original BB cream and now they have come out with this. The non department store brands are really stepping it up! This is considered a blemish fighting BB cream that helps clear skin with 8 great skin benefits which includes 2% salicylic acid.

**This BB cream is best  for combination and/or blemish-prone skin**

Mayeblline’s Dream Pure promises to:

  • Clear acne
  • Conceal imperfections
  • Minimize look of pores
  • Reduce appearance of redness
  • Adjust to skin tone
  • Hydrate and smooth
  • Enhance and clarify your skin
  • Is oil-free, with a lightweight feel

Now…how does it differ from Maybelline’s Dream Fresh BB cream?

**Maybelline’s Dream Fresh is ideal for normal Skin**

  • Blurs imperfections
  • Brightens
  • Evens skin tone
  • Smoothes
  • Hydrates

“If I Had to Choose”…these would be it

We have the luxury of having tons of products at our disposal, right? But what if you had to pick three beauty products… what would you chose? I thought about it… when I wake up the first thing I notice after I wash my face is man look at those bags  under my eyes (now that’s all the way real,lol).  My beauty products would have to be products to pull a sista together versus that extra pop.

With that being said I’m rocking withProcessed with Moldiv

  1. Studio fix concealer from MAC in NC35 ( multiple uses)- I use it for underneath my eyes (dark circles/bags/ highlight), I use it to hide sparse brow hairs when I can’t make it to get my brows waxed (here’s a secret I only wax my brows twice a year because the concealer just works).
  2. Mascara-  It opens your eyes and makes you appear more awake and pulled together even when I’m not. The “Mega Plush Volume” mascara is easily one of my favorite mascaras in my insane mascara collection. I ALWAYS have it with me.
  3. Lastly, I would pick Maybelline’s Baby Lips  “Minty Sheer” lip balm. It gives moisture and a great shine.

What would you guys choose?
