If you want to read the full review and see a before/after, click here! I do want to write a little update though, as my opinion changed after a year of use.
When I tried it a year ago, the coverage was a bit too sheer for my liking. And then, I discovered an awesome combo for dark under eye circles : I mix the Ultra HD concealer with a bit of Full Cover camouflage cream.
The Full Cover camouflage cream adds more coverage and lasting power, while the Ultra HD concealer gives some luminosity and moisturizes the skin.
When it comes to spot concealing though, I still prefer the Full Cover camouflage cream. It's been a fav for over 10 years!
But for my under eye circles, the Full Cover + Ultra HD duo is incredible. Seriously.
Let's jump into the swatches now, shall we!
The Ultra HD concealers range is divided into undertones : R for red undertones and Y for yellow undertones.
The R shades are usually better for color correcting, while the Y shades are great for brightening the under eye area.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you love it! :)
DeleteGreat post.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteThanks for the swatches. My understanding is that R is actually for colour correction, to conceal undereye circles. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're more than welcome!
DeleteYes the R shades have red/pink undertones, and they are great for color correction! It depends on the color of your under eye circles, if they are blue/purple then the R shades are perfect for that.
