Trying to find a concealer that covers redness, dark eye bags, and acne can be quite a tricky task. Many of us have tried everything from a €3 Penneys concealer to a designer find from Brown Thomas. We've searched far and wide for one that lives up to the hype, but have often been let down in one way or another.
Whether it's a disappointing range of tones or a hefty price tag, we've struggled to find a decent holy grail concealer.
That is, until Merit launched in Ireland last year.
Merit sells The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Sticks every ten seconds, but is it worth the hype?
Without a doubt.
You can buy it here.
The concealer is silky smooth, and comes in such a huge range of shades, there's even one that suits my pasty pale Irish skin.
What's so great about this concealer is the lightweight, buildable formula that delivers a natural look, all while covering up redness, acne, and everything in between.
The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Stick is clinically proven to wear all day. It is a versatile concealer that can be applied all over for full coverage or used to make small edits.
This concealer is non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin, and dermatologist-tested.
The concealer is €42 but will last far longer than most high-street concealers. You can buy it here.
