Collection Cosmetics Lasting Perfection Concealer, Same Well-loved Formula, New Packaging, Long Lasting 16 Hour Wear, 3.5ml, Extra Fair

I ordered this concealer not really expecting much as it’s only £5 which is quite cheap for a concealer. The colour works well with my skin tone, not overly light even though it’s ivory. You twist the top round to pull out the wand and dab on the face where you want it then return the wand to its original position and remove the top to reveal to sponge that you use to blend it. It stayed on well and blended well. I would purchase this concealer again as I don’t like spending too much money on make up as I hardly wear it.

I ordered this concealer as I liked the 'new look' packaging. On arrival the concealer was not shrink wrapped which I found a bit strange as most beauty products these days do come sealed and wrapped. This aside I am very pleased with this concealer. The combined wand with sponge applicator is a great idea as it makes it very portable for touch ups on the go. The sponge also has a lid saving any unsightly mess inside your handbag. The concealer itself applies very smoothly and blends easily. It feels very light on your skin and so far seems to last well throughout the day. I have used more expensive concealers in the past and I feel this cheaper option gives the expensive ones a good run for the money. Priced at £4.99 this concealer is definitely great value for money. I feel it will also last a long time.

Great value concealer. A little nerve-wracking to order without actually seeing the shades in ‘real life’ but I went with Ivory as that’s what I tend to use, and it didn’t disappoint. When it arrived o thought it was going to be far too light, but on applying it blends well and looks great. The applicator is within the bottle and the conical sponge in the lid is used to blend. Initially I thought this was a squeeze-sponge type applicator but it’s not. Certainly does the job - it’s a budget-friendly option, and there’s plenty of it. What’s not to like!

I was a bit confused at first because the packaging is different, but once you work out how it’s meant to be used it’s actually really good. The wand inside the tube is for applying the concealer, then the applicator on the top of the lid is for blending it out. Once I’d clicked what was what, it made doing my concealer really quick and neat, especially under the eyes and around the nose where I want a bit more coverage. Ivory was a good match for my pale skin and it blended in nicely without looking heavy, and the built-in blender means you don’t have to grab a separate sponge just for small touch-ups. It’s also good value for money, especially for an everyday concealer that’s easy to use and does the job quickly.

So it's not amazing but for the price it's really not too bad at all. Didn't cover completely. You u screw and use the wand to apply. Then use the end to smudge or dab. Good value

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer was the first concealer I ever tried when I got into makeup, and I have been using it for many years now. Even after trying lots of more expensive concealers, I always come back to this one. It just works for me. The formula is the same well-loved one, and I am glad they did not change it. It gives good coverage without looking heavy. It blends easily under the eyes and over blemishes. I use the shade Ivory, and it suits my skin tone well. It lasts well throughout the day and still looks good after hours of wear. The new packaging looks cleaner and more modern, and also comes with a sponge for blending. Overall, this is one of those products I trust and keep repurchasing. No matter how many others I test, this remains a staple in my makeup routine, and I always feel happy coming back to it.
