I've been in the market for a really good concealer, so I always search around and try new ones that look promising. I purchased the Max Factor MASTERTOUCH Under-eye concealer in FAIR 306 (because at the time, they had nothing lighter, but I would have preferred something lighter). The product comes in a pen shaped applicator, where you twist the bottom of the pen to allow product to come through at the top through a spongy doe foot applicator. The shape of the spongy applicator was really nice, as it allowed you to get in close to the areas around your eyes and nose, or even around blemishes. I'm not too sure how hygienic a sponge applicator can be in the long run, but they seem to still make them, so I'm sure they are fine.

When I purchased this concealer, it cost me around R169.99 at Clicks (also available at Dischem) and I am thoroughly disappointed. For the price I paid, I expected higher coverage, but the coverage was incredibly weak, which means you had to keep building up on it, and this is probably the reason the product didn't last very long. Another annoying aspect of the packaging was that you couldn't really control the amount of product that came out, you had to rely on the twisting of the base to get the product out, which often meant there was more than you needed.

I found that it finished really fast, which I haven't really had with other concealers. I also found out that they are not cruelty-free, so that sucked. The search continues for a good concealer!
