Monday Morning Must-Haves: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
Despite my efforts, I still managed to wake up Monday mornings with some dark under eye circles. I have creams do a great job of minimizing the appearance that for perfectly managed under eye circles I have to use a concealer. Right now, I’m loving NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, and it’s a perfect Monday Morning Must-Have.

What it is:
A creamy concealer with hydrating, multiaction skincare benefits and light diffusing technology to create a softer, smoother complexion.What it does:
Ideal for all skin types, Radiant Creamy Concealer is a multiaction formula that instantly obscures imperfections, blurs the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and hides dark circles and signs of fatigue. Hydrating and luxuriously smooth, it layers lightly for buildable medium-to-full coverage and a natural luminous finish. The multiactive botanical blend hydrates, firms, reduces redness, and strengthens the skin by helping its barrier retain vital moisture. It also delivers antioxidant protection to protect the skin against damaging free radicals.Skin becomes visibly smooth, soft, and more even-toned. Mineral tone balancing powder works to optically correct, not mask, imperfections to keep skin looking flawless. A single stroke of Radiant Creamy Concealer keeps the complexion looking fresh and creaseless. It goes on smoothly, blends easily, and stays in place all day. Comfortable and hydrated, skin glows with new radiance over or under foundation and looks beautiful—even when bare.

My results:
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is exactly what it’s name says– creamy and it leaves the under eye area looking radiant. The formula is pigmented enough to cover dark circles and yet it does not look heavy. I love that the color has yellow undertones so it matches my skin tone perfectly. It does increase, or settle in pores and lines around the eye. It also lasts throughout the day without drying out.
I apply eye cream before using NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer for extra creaminess and blendability. According the fabulous chart on Sephora.com, I picked Caramel (medium dark yellow and golden undertones). What I love most is how easy it is to use — just stripe a few lines on under your eye and in the inside corner and then blend. And you get a lovely radiant finish!
