Hello everyone! :)
Finally I am going to sit down and breakdown with you my all-time favourite concealer series from The Saem.
In fact, I am more of a "concealer person" than a "foundation person". Especially when you want to achieve a light and fresh makeup-look.
Speaking of its packaging, the concealers are filled in sturdy transparent plastic containers with black caps.
As for the tip concealers, the applicator is attached to the cap (as below). The tip is slightly slanted for easy application.
Now I am going to show you the swatches for the liquid concealers.
From the close-up shot below, you can tell the texture is not too watery - just the creamy nice texture for easy blending.
Notice the pink brightener, isn't the color dreamy?
Moving to the pot concealer, the texture is thicker and drier compared to the previous.
In return, it has higher coverage.
Join me now as I show you how lazy people do makeup! :p
For liquid concealer, what I usually do is to apply it directly on targeted spots (i.e. blemishes, acne scars, redness around my nose).
Then take your blending sponge. Make sure you dampen it nicely. Currently I am using Blending Pearl (Black) from Breena Beauty. It is "Made in Malaysia" and the quality is GOOOD!!!
Notice the difference!!! (as above)
Do I need to say more? :D
(please elaborate a little bit?)
Okay. From the photo above it might be unclear, but in fact the blemishes are not entirely concealed after application. However, at least they are less obvious to see/spot from a distance.
Bear in mind, the liquid concealer is NOT in full coverage. Just nice to blur out what you don't want to show ;)
I am not a makeup professional, but what I understand is that different type of concealer offers different level of coverage.
For instance, if you have an open acne scar, perhaps you might consider pot concealer/stick concealer.
Here I am going to do a short demonstration.
Currently my only concealer brush is Brush110 Dual Concealer from Etude House.
I have no complain on this as it is fairly affordable and it does the job.
To use, get some of the product using the flat concealer brush by directly dipping it into the pot concealer (as below).
Do your first swatch on your hand to get rid of excess. You DO NOT want to see thick concealer patches everywhere on your face (heh).
With little product on the concealer brush, stamp it on specific spots which need extra touch (as below).
Use the same concealer brush and work on/blend the edges, leave the middle part - until it is completely blended into your entire face makeup.
Meanwhile, let me complete with the rest of my face makeup before I show you the highlighter/brightener. :)
Personal ranking for the above products are: liquid concealer > pot concealer > brightener.
The liquid concealer is an absolute HIT! If you are a makeup beginner (like me), do do do try out this amazing road shop liquid concealer. The result is absolutely promising!
For the Cover Perfection Tip Concealer series, there are 5 shades available at the moment: 01 Clear Beige, 1.5 Natural Beige, 02 Rich Beige, Contour Beige and Brightener.
In fact, I don't use pot concealer often unless for photo-shooting purpose. There are a looong way to hit the pan. (><''') It requires a little bit more technique in using pot concealer. It's either a big hit, or a miss (obvious patches everywhere, failed to blend in with the face makeup).
As for the brightener, honestly I don't like it. Instead of giving luminous shiny aura that reflects natural light, it presents as a layer of white cast, that just sits on top of the makeup, not easy to blend in. Too bad because I really love the pink shade... :c

Application - Cover Perfection Pot Concealer 01 Clear Beige
Why do you need so many kinds of concealer? o.OI am not a makeup professional, but what I understand is that different type of concealer offers different level of coverage.
For instance, if you have an open acne scar, perhaps you might consider pot concealer/stick concealer.
Here I am going to do a short demonstration.

Application - Cover Perfection Tip Brightener
I am not gonna lie. I am still figuring out how to use this Tip Brightener.
The same liquid texture works wonder for concealer, but it becomes tricky when it comes to brightener. :/
For highlighter, I would much prefer a more liquid and light texture to create the most natural aura.
Anyway. Herein I am using Edge Makeup Sponge from Holika Holika. Edge makeup sponges are easier to create the diagonal trace, across from apple cheeks to nose sides.
...And here's the end result!!! (>.<)
Verdict
Personal ranking for the above products are: liquid concealer > pot concealer > brightener.
The liquid concealer is an absolute HIT! If you are a makeup beginner (like me), do do do try out this amazing road shop liquid concealer. The result is absolutely promising!
For the Cover Perfection Tip Concealer series, there are 5 shades available at the moment: 01 Clear Beige, 1.5 Natural Beige, 02 Rich Beige, Contour Beige and Brightener.

The brightener is for under eye dark circles. A peachy pink is the color to get rid of those. It is not meant to be a highlighter, which is probably why it didn't seem nice being used that way. :)
