ELF Corrective Concealer, £3.75 ELF website
This is probably the product I was most excited about from my recent ELF haul. I have heard lots about this concealer quad and now I finally got to give it a go! (Click here to read my review of the Matte Lip Color in Coral and here to read my review of the Lip Liner & Blending Brush in Red)
The ELF Corrective Concealer palette contains 4 shades of concealer to target different problem areas: nude, green, lilac and beige. As you can see from the photos above, I have several problem areas on my face; I must apologise for the bare face, but it was the only way to give you a true review of this product.
In general, I was a disappointed with this palette. The shades are all very sheer, chalky and failed to conceal most of the imperfections on my face. The only shade I thought was ok was the lilac shade; it did brighten up my face and evened out my complexion. I have dry skin, so I generally get on better with creamy concealers such as the Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection and YSL Touche Eclat.
I would maybe recommend this to people with combination/oily skin and anyone looking for a cheap corrective concealer palette for a makeup start-up kit.

I almost bought this the other day but after reading the reviews I decided not to glad I did not and thanks..
This definitely has to be my favourite post from you! You’ve really shown how well the corrector works so I’m definitely putting this on my list of must haves!
Thanks! Hope it works for you :) x
Yeah, it’s a bit of a let down pigmentation-wise. I like the concept but didn’t like the results! :) x
Aw, thanks Hafsa. That really means a lot to me! xx
