Your concealer is impeccable in the morning, then a few hours are sometimes enough to see substance, fine lines and small dry areas appear. The kind of detail that the elevator mirror never forgives.
This liquid concealer aims to camouflage without giving the impression of having multiplied layers. And its formula hides some interesting arguments.
The POREfessional Concealer from Benefit wants to do much more than hide dark circles
You can apply it under the eyes, on an imperfection or redness, but also use it to illuminate certain areas and sculpt the face. Its adjustable coverage allows you to adapt the quantity of product rather than systematically covering the skin.
Benefit announces a blurring, smoothing and hydrating effect for 24 hours, according to an instrumental test carried out with 30 participants. After one week, 97% of the 119 participants surveyed during a self-assessment also said they obtained immediate coverage.
The concealer is water-resistant and its formula is designed not to run or create a material effect. Another interesting point for a product intended to camouflage small imperfections: it is non-comedogenic.
A formula composed of 76% skincare ingredients
This is where The POREfessional Concealer attempts to make a difference. Its formula is composed of 76% care-based ingredients, this percentage corresponding to the part of the formula providing hydration before the addition of pigments.
It contains hyaluronic acid, a choice that supports the moisturizing promise of the product. The idea is simple: correct the complexion without sacrificing comfort and without obtaining that thick appearance which can make the skin’s reliefs more visible.
For a complete routine, Benefit recommends prepping the skin with The POREfessional Primer then using The POREfessional Foundation to even out the entire face.
How to choose your shade of The POREfessional Concealer?
If you already use The POREfessional Foundation, you can rely on the shade matching system. Otherwise, start by determining your skin tone and then your undertone.
Blue or purple veins indicate a cool undertone, blue-green veins a neutral undertone, and green or olive veins a warm undertone.
Usage also matters. A lighter shade can highlight the eye area, while a darker shade can be used to sculpt the face. At 34 euros for 7 ml, Benefit therefore relies on a single product to correct dark circles, redness and imperfections while working on light and volume.
