| amyk49's Full Review: Revlon Colorstay Concealer SPF 6 |
Dark undereye circles, tiny red veins, zits, red bumps, dark spots, yuck!
With a little help from Revlon Colorstay Concealer these pesky imperfections can just be blended away. I am so glad I found this product!
~ The Packaging
Revlon Colorstay Concealer is a liquid concealer that comes in a handy .21 fl. oz. tube, and is applied by unscrewing the top with its attached angled sponge applicator. You simply dot on with the applicator and blend with your fingertip.
The plastic tube is small enough to easily slip into your purse for touch ups.
~ How Well Does it Apply?
Revlon Colorstay Concealer applies quiet smoothly and is easy to control. The wand applicator has an angled tip which is helpful for under the eyes and small areas. Simply dot on where you need it and blend with your fingertip. It sets in about 60 seconds. The consistency is nice and smooth, not clumpy or sticky. It blends easily, and doesn't get flaky or dry. It does a great job of concealing, and yet still has a light feel. You can use it alone, or under makeup.
~ How Long Does it Last?
I've found this concealer to last all day, as long as you don't rub your face. It's not waterproof, though, and will wash off with soap and water or your favorite facial cleanser.
Revlon Colorstay Concealer comes in three colors:
- Natural Beige
- Sand Beige
- Ivory
The Ivory shade matches my skin tone very well.
This concealer also contains SPF 6.
My one and only complaint would be the smell. There is a strong medicinal smell to this concealer, but it's only noticeable while you're applying it. There is no fragrance once it's dry. (Thankfully!)
There is a warning to avoid contact with the eyes, and to discontinue use if signs of irritation or rash appear. And to use on children under 6 months of age only with the advice of a physician.
Here are the ingredients:

~ Final Thoughts
Revlon Colorstay Concealer is the best concealer I've ever used. It goes on smoothly and easily, and hides all those little imperfections without feeling heavy. I couldn't ask for any more from a concealer.
