Best concealer ever - doesnt get into fine lines, and gives a natural look with a medium-high coverage. Not cakey at all and pairs well with my water-based routine
I really liked this, bought as an alternative after being not thrilled by the Australis concealer I tried. Didn't notice it once it was on my face, blended well.
I used the colour 'Fair'.
