I came across this concealer hidden away on a bottom shelf in a Boots skincare aisle. I was looking for a concealer specifically to put on spots that would not only conceal them but also treat them at the same time. For £6.99 I thought it was worth a try! It is available in two shades; Light and Medium. I bought it in Light.
Here is a bit of a blurb from the back of the packaging:
"Witch's liquid concealer enriched with antibacterial actives helps target spots and blemishes while smoothly covering them, helping you to achieve a clear looking complexion instantly. Mineral pigments and soothing ingredients help calm and clarify the skin. Providing medium coverage and a natural, matte finish, this lightweight formulation is also suitable for use under eyes."
The formula is also fragrance free and oil free.
I would prefer it if the shade was slightly lighter. I am extremely pale and with the concealer only being available in two shades, "light" has to cover a range of tones. But with a good bit of blending it turns out fine.
The formula is quick thick but does blend easily. In terms of coverage, it covers spots and blemishes really well. It's also easy to build up the coverage as required. It also, surprisingly, works pretty well on dark circles!
So does it actually help spots/blemishes? I don't think you can rely it as a treatment alone, but I have noticed that it does help dry up whiteheads and small blemishes quicker.
The Verdict
Would I re-purchase? Yes, I already have a couple of times now. It's such a good price at £6.99 and for that you get good coverage and a multi-tasker that you can use on your face and eyes. The big positive for me is that I can apply it daily knowing that I am helping to treat spots not just cover them up! I think ideally there could be a bigger range of shades though.
What concealer do you use? Have you tried any products from the Witch range?

This looks amazing but they need to extend the shade range. I think it will be too dark for me xx
ReplyDeleteI agree! Somehow I just about seem to get away with it, but it's definitely not the perfect shade for me x
DeleteI've used this before and really like it too :) x

:-) thanks for the comment :-)
DeleteThink I need to be buying this soon x
ReplyDeleteIf you do let me know what you think of it! :-) x
DeleteI currently use Bare Minerals but I miss the liquid versions. I'm tempted by this as it's fragrance free (me & fragrance just don't hit it) plus I love witch hazel! It seems a good price & if it covers up dark circles then I'm there! The only witch hazel product I've ever used was the standard oil in a bottle :) xox
ReplyDeleteI prefer fragrance free products too! I'm a bit of wary about how my skin might react to fragrance, especially breakouts. Thanks for your comment :-) x
Deleteooh this looks interesting :) sounds good thought, may give it shot! picked up there spot remover stick thing the other day - hope that is good :D <3
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried any of their other products, I'd be interested to hear if the spot stick is good! :-) x
