With the help of Reviewed senior scientist Julia MacDougall, we designed our testing in three rounds with eliminations after round two. To arrive at the 14 drugstore concealers that were tested, I combed through articles, my YouTube watch history, and retailer's best-seller pages. Round one of testing consisted of swatching each concealer over a red dot that mimics a pimple. For its staying power, coverage, and beautiful finish, you’ll love this drugstore concealer. Still, our test panelists felt that they received shades close enough to create a cohesive makeup look.Īfter hours of wear time, this CoverGirl concealer only faded slightly and still covered very well. Additionally, it would be easier to choose a shade if the names were reminiscent of the undertones-warm, cool, or neutral. Looking with a critical eye, this shade range could be improved with an extra option in the tan and deep categories-there are eight shades in each of the light and medium categories and seven shades in each of the tan and deep ones. I chose the shade “Classic Ivory” which proved a tad too dark and golden for my fair neutral skin, but I could get away with it. The concealer comes in 30 shades, ranging from “Fair Porcelain” in the light category to “Expresso” in the deep section. It has a larger-than-most doe-foot applicator that deposits more than enough concealer onto the skin for a full-coverage look, but it can easily be thinned out and blended into the skin on lighter makeup days. Who would say 'no' to finding their perfect concealer with a drugstore price tag on it? That’s how I feel about the CoverGirl TruBlend Undercover Concealer.
