🌸🌸🌸 Hey everybody! 🌸🌸🌸
You know, I’m so sick and tired of those girls who constantly complain about their “dark under eye circles and bags”, when I look at them and can see that their skin is just flawless. And here’s me with a bunch of genetic and health problems, getting an inadequate night's sleep which eventually brings me severe under eye bags and circles. And I just look at those girls and I’m simply wordless as I don’t know what answer would be right for them. When you have real problems with your under eye area, it becomes extremely difficult to fight and conceal it, as some products severely dry out the gentle skin there, while others crease or show nasty yellow undertones within a couple of hours of wearing.

I’ve struggled to find my perfect concealer which I’m going to review here today. Meet the Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Flawless Wear Concealer SPF10.
1. Packaging. The packaging shows you that you’re holding a high-end product in your hands. The concealer was packed into a beautiful box with all the needed information on it. The concealer itself is housed into a transparent neat tube which is so convenient to control the amount of how much of the product is left inside. The application is also above all praise. All these golden letters and captions scream that the product is expensive and is worth its money.

2. Volume: 7ml
3. Made in Belgium
4. Type of the product: Decorative cosmetics
5. A lot of people say that this concealer is too thick formula-wise. But I don’t agree with this statement at all. On the contrary, it’s so easy to apply and blend on the skin. What’s more, it sinks in so quickly that I’m ready to praise this concealer forever. But I think I’ll speak about it later and now I want to tell you about one very important thing.
ADVICE: Blend out the product as fast as possible as it dries down quickly, otherwise it would look like an unpleasant mess which will be impossible to blend out later. (Believe my experience, I know what I’m talking about).

6. There were three shades at store available when I was buying this concealer: 01 Light, 02 Light/Medium and 03 Medium. My perfect color that really matches my skin tone turned out to be the fairest from the line # 01 Light. I was so happy when I found this very shade, as it’s a real struggle for me to find the right-colored concealer because they all tend to look too yellow on me.

7. The product is unscented which is so nice, as perfume agents can irritate the gentle under eye skin.
8. List of ingredients: (for the interested ones)
Cyclopentasiloxane • Water • Trimethylsiloxysilicate • Butylene Glycol • Sorbitan Sesquioleate • PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone • Tribehenin • Magnesium Sulfate • Phenyl Trimethicone • Tocopheryl Acetate • Sodium Hyaluronate • Ethylhexylglycerin • Quaternium-18 Bentonite • Dimethicone • Methicone • Propylene Carbonate • Laureth-7 • Xanthan Gum • BHT • Phenoxyethanol • Chloroxylenol • Methylparaben • Butylparaben • Isopropylparaben • Isobutylparaben ± (CI 77019/Mica • CI 77491/CI 77492/CI 77499/Iron Oxides • CI 77891/Titanium Dioxide
Actually, I’m not good at understanding all those ingredients and components, but if I know this or that ingredient doesn't irritate my skin or cause reaction - it’s very likely that I’ll repurchase.
The product also states that the formula won't slip off or melt away from water, perspiration, or humidity which really makes the coverage longwearing.

Formula Facts:
Does the product live up to the promises? And my answer is ABSOLUTELY! Usually I’m rather loyal to the mass market products as I don’t expect some miracle from a low-priced product. But high-end products make me want some really worthy and working product, hence the expectations are always higher. And Estée Lauder totally lived up to all my expectations and demands.

I decided to apply some mascara and blush and here I am, ready to go out.

11. MY IMPRESSIONS
Oh, I’m in love! Estée Lauder Double Wear Concealer is ideal in all respects. I’ve already listed many of its advantages but actually there are many more of them which you’ll be very pleased to find out.
🌸 The coverage is just a miracle. I bought this concealer not only to camouflage my under eye problems, but also to apply and hide my skin blemishes. I have a lot of face skin issues: visible small blood vessels, pimples, sport and acne scars. And the Double Wear Concealer fights all these problems nicely. Of course if I look very close at my skin, some of the blemishes (bigger ones) will still be visible but there isn’t a concealer to camouflage such blemishes totally.
🌸 Lasting power
This concealer stays put on my skin the entire day and there’s no hint of creasing or fading. I don’t even have to set it with powders, as there’s just no need to do it.

🌸 Topnotch application. I’ve already mentioned the formula of the product thanks to which the concealer applies easy-breezy. It doesn’t crease or settle into crevices making me look older.
🌸 Comfortable wear. The product never dries out my skin which is so important for me. Yet still I prefer to apply some eye cream before any concealer application.
🌸 The product is SPF infused. This might seem a minor protection, as it has only SPF10, but it’s still enough to protect your skin from sun beams in summer and cold winds in winter.
🌸 Unexpectedly low spending. I’ve never had a concealer to last so long as this one. I need a teeny-tiny drop to apply all over my face and it’ll be enough not only to cover my under eyes, but also all my skin’s imperfections as well.
12. Price of the product. It costs $28, rather pricey for me, though it’s worth every dime! I’ve tried thousands of useless low-end concealers and came up to the thought that: buy nice or buy twice. And it’s much better to splurge on a good product once, than buy a pile of useless and shitty products every day.
