REVIEW : 3CE Waterful Concealer

Price - USD13.21
Where to buy - stylenanda




This concealer is as its name says, is "waterful". If you get what we mean, yes it is more fluid. It is a small tube, about less than half the size of your palm and comes with a nozzle. This helps when in application whether you dot it straight onto your face or when you are controlling the amount of the product when you squeeze it on the back of your hand.

As for the time is takes to dry, yes it dries pretty fast. However be rest assured when this concealer is piled, it will not look cakey. A point to why how fast it dries is mentioned, is because, you would want a concealer that does not dry too fast or too slow. If it is too slow, it will "disturb" the application of your makeup routine, as you need to allow it to dry before you accidentally rub it off. Also, if it is too fast, it down not give you time to blend it in. A tip with this one is to use a sponge for application instead, using your fingertips will not blend as fast and nicely. It will not dry up as fast too.

Because of its more liquid form, its coverage level is only at about medium. As you can see below, its coverage level when compared to the M.A.C's "Select Moisturecover" concealer.



As you can see, it does not cover as much. However when you pile on a few more layers, it is possible to achieve a higher coverage level.

Piling this on does not only not get cakey, it is not heavy as well. It is not the kind of product you pile on and straight on you could feel a slap of product or cream based substance on your face. It does not irritate the skin as well. We have tried it on sensitive skin.

A tip on the colour, this product comes in two colours, #001 and #002. It is easy to choose, because it blends in well cos of its watery form, if you are on the fair side, use #001, and if you are on the darker tanned skin, get #002. It glides on pretty well, so you should be able to blend to the colour of your skin pretty well. There is nothing much special about this concealer if you think about it, its just about the same as any other. It is not a bad one either. Only an additional point which is actually it is quite worth the price, that little tube holds so much and even with everyday use, it has lasted for 4 months and still going. Wow.

Rating - 3/5 *extra point for longevity.
