What do I think of the packaging?

I feel like even though it is no the be all and end all. However, it can be a pain in some cases. In some instances, it can stop me from using that product again. For that Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer, it has pretty bog-standard tube packaging. I think is my personal preference when it comes to concealers. It makes them nice and easy to work with. Easy to carry around and more importantly really quick to use. I know I may sound like a drama queen. But like pots of products of anything where I need to use a brush to apply to my face can just annoy me and usually I don’t get the pleasure of having that much time in a morning to get ready.

What about the coverage?

For the coverage, I would say that the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is more of a medium to full coverage. When I use this on days where I have intense darkness underneath my eyes, I can still see it peeping through, however when I use it to spot conceal or to hide a ‘normal’ amount of darkness, I am absolutely fine with it. This is something that I think is very subjective and it really depends on what the individual is looking for as to whether the coverage is right or wrong. For me personally, I like to have something in my collection which borders more on the side of a medium finish because I have days where I go lighter with my skin and I don’t want my under eyes to look so intense or full coverage.

What about the consistency?

When you hear the name of this Nars Concealer, you would think that this is a super creamy and possibly quite thick product, but I kind of have to disagree with that statement. Even though I wouldn’t class this as been a runny consistency, it isn’t like a traditional cream concealer, like Nars later released with the Nars Soft Matte Concealer. For me, I would just categorize this with any other concealer which I have which comes in a tube-like packaging. I don’t find that negative nor positive, it just is what it is. I will say though that when you are blending this product out, whether it be with a brush or a damp sponge, that is where the consistency really does come into its own. It is not that slick that it moves around the face, it is not too creamy that it is hard to work with.

How does it last?

This is a point which is super important to me. When I put my makeup on in the morning, I need that to last me all day long. Preferably, with as few touch-ups as possible. I primarily put this concealer underneath my eyes because I can get pretty dark under there depending on how much sleep I have had, and around my nose because it can get quite red due to hormones. When I blend this out and set it in place with my translucent powder, just as I would do with any other item, this stays in place all day long and works like an absolute treat. I have even been to the gym for a spin session and have sweated through this and it still stays in place absolutely wonderfully.

Would I recommend this item?

The big question when it comes to my blog posts and something that I am always incredibly cautious about answering, but this is again going to be a very diplomatic answer. I think that whether I recommend this item really would go on what that individuals’ requirements were. If you are looking for something to spot conceal with that has a decent amount of coverage, this is ideal. If you have fine lines and you want to conceal, but do not want to pull the skin or have something which looks cakey, this is the concealer for you. Maybe you need something that will cover a lot of darkness with an intense amount of coverage, I would say that this item is not for you and to take a look at a product like the Tarte Shape Tape Concealer. But, I do think that this is a stunning concealer.

There you go guys, I hope that you liked this post all about the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer. If you had any questions I hope that this post helps you out. I do absolutely adore Nars base products. They always work very well for me and my skin. I know that for others, that is a different story. Nars is one of those brands that I can just get behind. Even before it was the done thing, Nars was catering for and promoting people of colour. That is a really wonderful thing and something that should have been done by many more brands. Many years previous to when they started out.
