Overall Thoughts About Born To Glow Line & Concealer Review

Nyx Professional Makeup Born To Glow Concealer  Review & Swatches

I finished my one of the old time favorite concealers Catrice Liquid Camouflage High Coverage, so there was a extra place in my collection for something new😄. I was wondering what to buy for a long time and I was tempted by many more expensive concealers such as Dior, Joue or Too Faced, but I had a lot of expenses recently, so I choose something more affordable, namely Nyx Makeup Born To Glow Radiant Concealer. If you are interested in how it works under the eyes and on the face, I invite you to today's review.

The Born To Glow line was launched in December 2019 and is dedicated to people who desire more radiant, healthy looking skin and a feeling of hydration all day.

The foundation for which I had high hopes turned out to be nothing special, so let's see what it was like with the concealer. Is it worth buying or not ?!

As for the basic information, costs £9 per 5.3 ml (so not that much capacity compared to others) and you can get it easily online and in stores distributing the Nyx brand such as Superdrug, Boots or Douglas. What surprised me a lot was the information on the packaging that it has a validity date of 24 months, while other concealers from my collection are from 6 to 12. Especially for people who don't wear makeup too often, it can be a big plus.

↘Full Foundation Review

I managed to get it on the offer 3 for 2 and I chose it as a third free product.

It's available in 24 shades, so everyone should find the perfect variant for themselves. The applicator is in the form of a sponge, something like Maybelline Instant Anti-age Eraser Eye Concealer which I am not a fan of, much more prefer the traditional wand solution which is more hygienic and looks more aesthetically over the time. The packaging is nice, fits everywhere, neat but is nothing crazy fancy.

My Opinion

When it comes to how is working, unfortunately I didn't like this concealer. Has light coverage which I personally don't mind, but at the same time it looks dry, quickly gathers into mimic lines / wrinkles and is visible on the skin. It is quite unusual because usually such a light consistencies blends beautifully into the skin, but here the effect is unfortunately the opposite. I gave him a lot of chances, tried to use it under the eyes, as a base for eyeshadows and on the face, but unfortunately it didn't work in any of this purposes. It's a pity because I had great hopes, but for me it is one of the worse drugstore concealers I've had for a long time. If you are looking for a light, great under the eyes, I highly recommend Revlon Candid.

I heard a lot of positive opinions about the Nyx Born To Glow line, but on my combination skin it didn't work, I will not buy a foundation or concealer again and I strongly advise you not to. There are many other, much better and often even cheaper cosmetics on the market.

Have you tried any cosmetic from the Born To Glow line?
