I bought this concealer in preparation for a wedding and have not put it down since! Was finding that almost everything I had was looking too ashy compared to my body or didn't illuminate my face enough/at all. I have all the concealers by MUFE, MAC, theBalm, and L'Oreal (including highlight products) but none of them could stand up as well as the Hourglass to various lighting conditions. It's not perfect. It hates any/all powder but it is imperceptible and photographs amazingly.
Damn i really wanna see in HD if they set on lines or does it blend as well. i hate it when the concealers tend to look clumpy. How would you say does this compare to Bobbi Browns Corrector n Concealer combo?
I love your videos...thank you so much for taking the time and reviewing products. Could you please please also do a review on Cle De Peau concealers? I wanted to buy a Chantecialle Bio Lift, but it was really sheer on me, so the girl at Nordstrom recommended Cle De Peau but I was not sure how it is. Thanks again for everything :)
What would you recommend if i have dry under eyes in terms of an under eye cream? I am looking for something that will help with dry and puffyness.Thank you.
@dougfig Thanks so much!! It totally speeds it up haha :) Thanks for watching! Since I try to demo every product, i will definitely split the screens more often :)
@exquisiteallure Haha, I totally have green monster pangs as well ... Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate it, and thanks for watching :) - Michael

@telket1 Strange thing...I have actually never purchased a single brush from her...and I do always look at them. I really want one of the concealer brushes, the angled brush, and the angled kabuki. I need to get on that :) Thanks for renewing the idea :) -Michael
Please discuss using brightening powders by mature women with fine lines under the eyes. These powders look great on people with no lines, but imo they can draw attention to something an older person does not want to emphasize. Would be interested in your opinion on this. Would also like to hear you review YSL Touche Eclat and the similar product by By Terry.
@telket1 Hello!! That is a great idea :) You are definitely right, some brightening powders are just not suitable :) The By Terry highlighter/concealer is actually the next product on my wish list :) Thanks for the suggestion...it has been my plan all along :) Thanks for watching :) -Michael
@rbred378 That question is waay to difficult to answer here. There are so different. I would say this is more of a concealer concealer, if that makes sense. The Chantecaille biolift is more of a treatment/sheer concealer...and it isnt good for spots or discolorations. I would say that the HG one is a stronger "concealer" Thanks!!!
I really appreciate how detailed you are in your videos, not many people can achieve this. Most of the other gurus just say "I love it, its nice, the packaging is nice" lol
@AnthropologyBio First of all, I really appreciate your comment, you are indeed too kind. Secondly, that is precisely why I started making videos. Well, it is one of the reasons haha. I was also tired of watching reviews and not coming away with a single shred of useful or new insight. :) Thanks so much for watching! :) -Michael
@stylerumor Aww, thank you so much! I wondered what people would think. It looks grainy in the default setting, but very sharp in 720...which is weird. But thanks so much for your feedback and thanks for watching! :)

With other reviews, I find myself googling it and reading several blog posts, but your reviews are just amazing. You are so thorough and well-spoken. Greetings from Norway!
@Tanutra Well, I am so flattered and happy that you decided to comment. Thanks so much for your feedback. I am an avid video watcher and blog reader, and I find that most content is lacking. That's why I try my hardest to be thorough and useful haha :) Thanks again! -Michael
@hairgoddessrachel Great suggestion. This was my first time with the brand (asside from samples here and there)...and now I am definitely going to look further :D Thanks for the suggestion :)
@LJ858 It is hard to qualify in words .... hmm, I would say for those slightly lighter than me, to about someone 1-5% darker than me haha...I know that is frightfully vague. It is certainly a 'must test' item since the color selection is so limited :)
@rikkuffx2 You are right :) I am glad I was able to catch it on film. I totally agree, the effect is so discreet and nice (still a bit drying) Thanks! -Michael
@TheSara1029 Thanks so much!! Always working to improve :) I think it is important to try to have a crystal clear image for videos like this :) And it pays off in the long run i think. Thanks for watching! -Michael

Awesome review Michael-Pearl is too dark and it was too dry for my dry, dry mature undereye. Recommendation? For a leave a bit of natural skin color light to med coverage? :) xo jan
@Catalina031 hello Jan!! :) Well, I wanna hold back on recommendations until I review the cle de peau concealer...but I am sure I can think of a good option for you *puts on thinking cap*. Thanks for watching!
I have one concealer to recommend that can beat the hourglass concealer with the same if not better coverage but more brightening less drying and on top of that with an SPF......interested? : )
It's the La mer radiant concealer with SPF 25. I was using the la mer and was very happy with it but then I was curious about the hourglass one also, so I had to try it.
verdict: the la mer one don't crease on me, the hourglass one does a little because it is just that little bit dryer, and I notice : P
@ivmeonly OMG, thank you for this thorough, interesting, and amazing comment. Of course, my obsession with La Mer combined with your feedback will assuredly lead me to purchasing the Radiant Concealer. Thanks again!! -Michael
Now i know where i went wrong applying my concealer and why the end result was more often than not cacky, it was not necessarily the product,but how i was applying...Very informative,covered all bases...
I loove your videos! Could you please help me pick a shade? I live in Europe and i only have access to Hourglass online :( Im NC 30 and i couldnt find swatches for the warm and sand tones. I just want to use it under my eyes, do you think Pearl may be to light. In that case wich shade would you recommend? i´d be so grateful if you answered to me. I wouldn ask if you werent my last hope haha. Hugs from Spain
I bought this concealer and hated it. If you have any dryness under the eye, this concealer will crease and settle into your lines, and it felt VERY thick. By the end of day it looked awful. I love the Giorgio Armani Master Corrector and High Precision Retouch. These are so much more moisturizing, they give you the conceal and highlighting and they look so natural.
While I already own and love this concealer, I'm glad you did a review of it! Actually, I prefer this to my Cle de Peau concealer. Have you had a chance to review Hourglass' mineral veil primer/foundations?
You are as adorable and gorgeous as always! But I wish hourglass made at least three more colors to accommodate those that are very fair (I'm a nc15, so too fair) or those that are darker and maybe one more tone in between. I did love your review and I was also amazed at how easily it blended. Thank you for keeping us in the know.
i have to say, they could have done a color selection of the concealer that goes better with their foundation selection. I don't consider myself that far along the dark spectrum but I can tell you that these concealers are nowhere near my skin-color. They could afford to add three more shades at least. Looks like a good product though.
I just love your flawless look anyway just wondering does it crease later I have little fine lines what would u recommend for dark circles and fine lines?
Hello, would the sand color, the darkest of the 3, work on my very olive NC40 skin that can get much darker than darker than NC 40 (but not at all orange like NC 42). Thanks!
Hi,Michael. Very informative video.I've found that I have to rub my finger over this concealer to warm it up a bit and them pat it under my eyes.That seems to do away with the dry feeling.I can apply it around my nose just like you do from the tube.I just set it with a small amount of powder and it lasts for quite a while.Thanks again for the review.
I don't think there are any videos I enjoy more than demonstrating something. I have gotten a little tired of watching just reviews of too many people, and many products seem to be the flavour of the week, then two weeks later that "fabulous" product is not so good as the newe flavor. I appreciate the way you plan and do your videos, and I respect your opinion, since it doesn't seem to change every other week.
Hello Michael! First off i am a new subscriber and i love your videos! I really appreciate all the time and research your put into each video. It does show. I have a question, do you have any recommendations for good beauty serums that will last you more than a month? Like Caudalie's Vinoperfect Radiance serum? It is $80 an ounce but it lasts me almost 6 months! I am wondering if their are others like that out there so i don't have to go back and buy the product every single month.
Ginabinawina swears by this concealer what make me wants it badly - I usually like the things she suggests. I just haven't bought it yet because its supposed dryness. Do you find it too opaque that doesn't look natural?
Fun & informative as always! The brand has lovely products. The Artist in me had to chime in on the color comment - you're so right, their shades are selected with marketing in mind buut they definitely exclude faaar more than the "extreme ends" of the "color spectrum". This might shock many but my complexion is more accurately in the vicinity of the "middle" of the spectrum (nc 45 for reference) though I know to many that's soooo dark LOL!
Lovely to see you again, Michael. I bought this concealer yesterday (at Sephora). I did hem and haw, as the colour selection did not address my exact colouring (I chose Sand). I'm 44 with very dry skin (and ridiculously sensitive eyes), so taking the time to really blend it out well will be crucial. I work 12-14 hour days, and haven't put it to that test yet, so the jury is still out on my overall impression. I'll let you know if you like.
*Runs to catch the next flight from Ireland to California to wait at the Santa Monica Sephora for Michael to visit* (JOKE!) Excellent, informative video and demo, kudos to you!xx
I love how your videos are so professional, but still not arrogant or annoying in any way at all! You can really tell you've put in so much effort ^_^ I love your videos so much! x

While I already own and love this concealer, I'm glad you did a review of it! Actually, I prefer this to my Cle de Peau concealer. Have you had a chance to review Hourglass' mineral veil primer/foundations?

You are as adorable and gorgeous as always! But I wish hourglass made at least three more colors to accommodate those that are very fair (I'm a nc15, so too fair) or those that are darker and maybe one more tone in between. I did love your review and I was also amazed at how easily it blended. Thank you for keeping us in the know.

i have to say, they could have done a color selection of the concealer that goes better with their foundation selection. I don't consider myself that far along the dark spectrum but I can tell you that these concealers are nowhere near my skin-color. They could afford to add three more shades at least. Looks like a good product though.

What would you recommend as a moisturizing or at least non drying concealer? Hourglass looks amazing on you by the way

Hello, would the sand color, the darkest of the 3, work on my very olive NC40 skin that can get much darker than darker than NC 40 (but not at all orange like NC 42). Thanks!

Hi,Michael. Very informative video.I've found that I have to rub my finger over this concealer to warm it up a bit and them pat it under my eyes.That seems to do away with the dry feeling.I can apply it around my nose just like you do from the tube.I just set it with a small amount of powder and it lasts for quite a while.Thanks again for the review.

I don't think there are any videos I enjoy more than demonstrating something. I have gotten a little tired of watching just reviews of too many people, and many products seem to be the flavour of the week, then two weeks later that "fabulous" product is not so good as the newe flavor. I appreciate the way you plan and do your videos, and I respect your opinion, since it doesn't seem to change every other week.

Hello Michael! First off i am a new subscriber and i love your videos! I really appreciate all the time and research your put into each video. It does show. I have a question, do you have any recommendations for good beauty serums that will last you more than a month? Like Caudalie's Vinoperfect Radiance serum? It is $80 an ounce but it lasts me almost 6 months! I am wondering if their are others like that out there so i don't have to go back and buy the product every single month.

Ginabinawina swears by this concealer what make me wants it badly - I usually like the things she suggests. I just haven't bought it yet because its supposed dryness. Do you find it too opaque that doesn't look natural?
Thanks for sharing, Micheal!

Fun & informative as always! The brand has lovely products. The Artist in me had to chime in on the color comment - you're so right, their shades are selected with marketing in mind buut they definitely exclude faaar more than the "extreme ends" of the "color spectrum". This might shock many but my complexion is more accurately in the vicinity of the "middle" of the spectrum (nc 45 for reference) though I know to many that's soooo dark LOL!
Continued Sucess

Lovely to see you again, Michael. I bought this concealer yesterday (at Sephora). I did hem and haw, as the colour selection did not address my exact colouring (I chose Sand). I'm 44 with very dry skin (and ridiculously sensitive eyes), so taking the time to really blend it out well will be crucial. I work 12-14 hour days, and haven't put it to that test yet, so the jury is still out on my overall impression. I'll let you know if you like.
