M.A.C Mineralize Concealer Review (Beauty Blog Post)

Mineral products are famous for their light feel. While they give you breathable skin, they DO NOT provide the best coverage. 

I just happen to be a full-coverage kinda gal. 

In the past, I always counted on M.A.C for flawless skin. M.A.C Studio Fix and Studio Sculpt foundation are both wonderful, and are both VERY THICK. Now that M.A.C came out with a mineral line, I'm interested to see if it works.

First, I tried M.A.C Mineralize Concealer. Nowadays, I wear concealer instead of foundation anyway.

M.A.C Mineralize Concealer Review

(Price: $20 for 5 ml.)

Quality and Performance

• Texture of concealer is creamy. But it's not thick.
• Formula is silky and smooth. 
• Application was extremely easy.
• Concealer just kind of glided onto skin.
• Though concealer felt light and thin, it still provided sufficient coverage.
• My skin saw immediate difference after use.
• Product also lasted a long time. At least through a couple hours of running around.
• Overall, I think M.A.C Mineralize Concealer has excellent quality and performance.     

Color

• I used NW25. 
• The color is gorgeous. 
• It really suits my medium-toned Asian skin.
• I barely saw a difference between concealer and my own skin color.

  

As you can see, color looks great on my skin. Formula is also nice and smooth.

 

Blend-a-bility

• Formula was smooth and consistent.
• It blended remarkably. 

Feel

• Light weight and breathable.
• Absolutely comfortable. Couldn't tell I was wearing anything. 

Packaging

• Honestly, I wish I got more product for $20.
• The bottle was tiny.
• I like the twist top.
• I do not like the brush. It was flimsy and hard to use. 

 

So tiny! Why is it $20?

Packaging is cute though.

But I disliked the brush head.

Overall Likes

• Gorgeous color. Really suited skin tone. (I have always appreciated M.A.C's range of colors.)
• Blends well.
• Creamy formula. 
• Excellent quality.
• Great coverage.
• Long lasting.   

Overall Dislikes

• Too small and too expensive.
• Bad brush. It's hard to use.

Re-Purchase?

Yes, but only as a go-to.  

I'd like to try others, but will use this as a backup if I run out of choices.

Before

My A.M. no makeup face.

Where I applied the concealer.

After concealer, skin appeared smoother and not as shiny.
