Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

Hello, good day to you all!  So, for years now I've been stuck in my ways using Boi-ing concealer by Benefit - never really, truely liking it.  But for some reason, I'd go back and buy it again, and again... but the breaking point was the last time, the girl outright told me that I was wrong, and that I would never have bought shade 02, it's clearly too dark, it's definitely 01... so taking her advise I bought 01, and whaydda know?  It was too light for me. 

As my skin has aged, I'm getting drier around my eyes too, and solid concealers just crack on me, well Boi-ing does and needs a lot of attention.  So, I decided that when it was finished, I'd try a liquid one, opting for a cheapy one first, just in case I didn't like it ;)  So I ventured into Superdrug and picked up (on a recommendation) the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in the lightest shade they do.

My Thoughts

I'm finding it hard to pick a negative to be honest... after maybe, 8 hours, maybe 6, any blemishes could do with being touched up, but it has great staying power, it's lovely and thick whilst still being a liquid, it blends really well, doesn't smell bad and helps to minimise the mammoth bags I have under my eyes - and that's no mean feat I can tell you!  I really like this, I can definitely see me re-purchasing this and keeping it as a staple in my Collection <-- see what I did there?  ;)

    1. Yeah it's amazeballs! I'm trialing the Maybelline Dream Lumi one right now - not as impressed so far :S Collection (2000) have really upped their game since I was 14 and first started wearing makeup (my first makeup was Collection 2000) - they've come a long way :) But I think all the cheaper makeup brands have

    1. wow, better than Clinique! I do love that it's quite thick and creamy, whereas the Maybelline Dream Lumi is much thinner - not to say worse.... no yeah, worse :)
