Makeup Revolution Conceal and Hydrate: I quite enjoyed this concealer.

Hydrating concealers are my favorite for my delicate, often dry under eye area. Makeup Revolution Conceal & Hydrate concealer claims to hydrate while providing a medium to full coverage. Sign me up! I’m going to give you an honest performance review of how this concealer held up for a full day’s wear. I’m talking: how it applied, if it creased, how to set, and if there were any surprises (hint: there was one).

Promises vs. Performance: Makeup Revolution Conceal and Hydrate concealer promises hydrating coverage.

Makeup Revolution Conceal & Hydrate Concealer promises to do just that: conceal blemishes and dark circles while adding hydration. The creamy, lightweight formula claims a satin finish that won’t settle into fine lines. Containing hyaluronic acid, it is designed for drier skin and all day hydration. Makeup Revolution says it can be applied using fingers, a brush, or sponge, and works best with adding a setting powder or spray for longevity.

The large doe foot applicator on this concealer makes it super easy to apply. I used a brush to blend, and it blended in really easily. I was instantly met with brightened under eyes, and a solid medium to full coverage. Makeup Revolution hydrating concealer does recommend setting, so I used Becca Cosmetics Light Shifter Powder.

This is a concealer I enjoyed wearing! I love that it added a boost of hydration to my under eyes, ensuring they looked bright and awake all day long. The one thing I will say is that this needs a heavy duty setting powder to keep in place to ensure longevity. I had some transfer from my mascara, Lancome Idole, which is a mascara that I usually never have issues with leaving spots under my eyes. I will definitely use some sort of baking powder over top in the future.

How Makeup Revolution Conceal and Hydrate Concealer Compares:

This Makeup Revolution Conceal and Hydrate concealer brightened, hydrated and concealed my dark circles, just the way I like them! Instantly upon blending the concealer in, I was met with a medium to full coverage that truly did brighten. The wear was pretty great, with very little creasing, however, this concealer does requite a hefty setting powder. Because it is so hydrating, it can move around and mascara can transfer to your under eye area. I would recommend a powder you can bake with, like Coty Airspun. If you have super dry skin, I think you would really enjoy Conceal & Perfect.

With that being said, if you’re looking for a concealer that brightens, conceals, and doesn’t need as heavy duty of a setting powder, I’d recommend Maybelline Instant Age Rewind. This classic is one of the best at giving you that awake, “instant age rewind” look. I love how bright it makes my under eye and that it’s long lasting with any powder, not just after baking.

Milabu Beauty Method: Here’s how to bake under your eyes.

1. Dot concealer under your eyes. Blend out using your fingertips or a brush.
2. Taking a baking powder, like Coty Airspun, tap out product into the lid.
3. Using a sponge, pick up the powder. I recommend a sponge made for powder, like this one from Real Techniques.
4. Pat the product under your eyes. You should be able to see the powder sitting on top. Let sit about 5 minutes.
5. Taking a small setting brush, dust away the excess powder.
