Sleek Corrector and Concealer Palette

I have recently run out of my favourite concealer, Bourjois Healthy Mix, and I needed a replacement quick as my under eye circles are terrible at the moment, so nipping into superdrugs this was the first thing that I picked up.

The palette comes encased in a small black case that is akin to their i-divine palettes. This is quite small, meaning you don't actually get much product, but never the less, this is perfect for travel. Just like the eye palettes, this does come with a mirror that is the full size of the case, which is great for application on the go.





Both cream colours in this kit are great for concealing dark circles and blemishes on the face. My only issue with this kit is that I have the kit in shade 2 and its a little to pale for me but the next shade up was far too dark/orange. I suppose you could mix two shades together from two different palettes, but then you have to buy extra product that you dont really need. I tend to use the darker shade just patted underneath the eye and then blending this out with the lighter shade. Then to finish, I apply the setting powder over the top. The powder does have a slight yellow under tone to it but this does even out the colour.

The consistency of the concealers is very, very creamy, but does take a fair bit of working into the skin as it does tend to just sit and settle into any fine lines. But once they have been worked in well and the setting powder on top, they look lovely. 

Overall, I would purchase this product again but probably to use as a backup or to have in my handbag incase any pesky blemishes make an appearance throughout the day.

This kit is available in 5 shades, ranging from fair to dark and retails from superdrugs or or here for £7.99

  1. Looks quite nice, reminds me of the Bobbi Brown kit. It's good that a drugstore brand has 5 shades of concealer! You usually only see 2 or 3!
