On a day-to-day basis I don't really use concealer, merely because I've never had the need to with my foundation. But having said that, to hide an odd spot, a blemish or those under-eye bags from a late night, it can be a life saver! While in my local Boot's store I picked up Rimmel's Stay Matte Concealer, just simply because I had noticed I was running out of my previous one. The concealer is available for £4.99 from Boots. The product is sold in four different shades: Soft Beige; Ivory, Soft Ivory, and Classic Beige. I chose Soft Beige, and I have a slightly tanned complexion. The concealer claims to be a 'blendable dual action concealer, which covers ...  Read the complete review

Whilst shopping in a local branch of Boots recently, I noticed that my preferred brand of concealer was out of stock. As I knew I was running out of the product, I needed to buy a replacement so I had a look about to see what was on offer. I eventually decided on the 'Rimmel Stay Matte Dual Action Concealer' and I paid around £5 for the product. This particular concealer product from Rimmel is available to buy in four shades. The one that I selected was the '010 Ivory' shade as I have a very pale complexion and after trying the product on my hand in store I was happy that this shade would suit my colouring best. I found the Rimmel Stay Matte ...  Read the complete review

I have quite oily to combination skin, and I get spots on quite a regular basis. In addition to this, I do suffer from under eye dark patches and circles on a daily basis. These never used to bother me too much before, as my foundation did cover it well. However, recently it has been becoming more and more noticeable, and in result I have been becoming more and more paranoid about it. At this point, I decided to buy a decent concealer, and as I am usually happy with Rimmel products, I picked up this Rimmel Stay Matte Dual Action Concealer. My skin tone is fairly medium and is not at all pale, but not at all tanned. I am just completely stuck in the middle, so ...  Read the complete review

As Sods Law would have it, I woke up yesterday with a pretty large spot. I had a job interview today so needless to say the troublesome zit was not welcome and was having a fairly big effect on my confidence. I usually use Boiing by Benefit as a concealer but luck was not swinging my way yesterday at all and I scraped the very last dregs from the container to make myself presentable. I live in a small place where there is no Benefit concession and I needed an alternative to get me through the interview today so I headed in to town. I intended to go to Boots, but while in Tesco I saw that they had a new Rimmel display there and I thought I would take a look. I ...  Read the complete review

So once again I find myself buying a Rimmel product (even though I'm not really a fan). I do have an excuse though... there was a 3 for 2 offer in Boots so I grabbed this 'new' concealer as my free item (currently retailing for £4.99). This concealer is part of the 'Stay Matte' range, and Rimmel have moved away from the traditional lipstick-style concealer, in favour of a thinner stick. It is still in the usual twist-for-more-product packaging, but I for one welcome the smaller surface area for ease of application. I've never understood the need for a splodge of concealer the size of a 1 pence piece: it just ends up looking like some sort of tribal ...  Read the complete review
