I'm not really into concealers but I gave this a try because I was curious about pencil concealers. I was hoping it could help conceal my blemishes on my jaw line. Also, it claims to be water resistant. I've been using it for quite some time and here's my review about this product.
The Nichido Mineral Spot Concealer is available in three colors: natural, neutral and beige. I got the shade of beige because it has a yellow undertone and I thought it would blend on my skin better than the other shades.
What I like:
- It has a yellow undertone
- It is cheap. I bought it at around Php 139
- It is accessible- available at Watsons, SM Department Store, Landmark and other leading stores.
- It can be easily blended with the skin.
What I don't like:
- It does not effectively conceal blemishes and pimples.
- Although it claims to be water resistant, it does not last long.
- It was creamy when I tested it on my hand but it was difficult to apply on my face- not creamy enough.
- The product line has limited shades.
- It is not buildable. It can't even cover the lightest blemish I have. :(
Will I repurchase?
I absolutely won't buy this again. It doesn't work as a concealer which was the reason I bought the product. If it cannot cover even the lightest blemish on my face, I don't expect it to perform well on my dark spots.
Even though I do not like this product, I still use it, not as a concealer, but as an eye pencil for my waterline. I also line my upper lip with this product as mentioned in my previous post. If you have bought this product already and did not like it, you may use it the way I do. :P
