How do you apply the cream concealer?

[corinne76]

Is the only way straight from the tube?

Also, how long do they last? It seems like they would eventually dry out (assuming here, don't know for sure). I like to stock up, but don't want to if it's going to dry out before I can use it.

Thanks!

You can apply it any way you want...from the tube, with your fingers, with a brush, etc.

Shelf life is one year. I would not consider stocking up beyond what you can use in a year.

thanks Jen. (btw, I didn't see the notice that the post needed to be approved and thought it got lost. pls disregard the second post if possible)

I tried it with a brush, but my brush kind of ate the concealer. Maybe I need a different brush? It's a bit wider than those super small concealer brushes.

Really there are no rules about what you have to do to apply. Try a few things and see what works best. A small brush would probably work better than a bigger one unless you are concealing a large area. I usually dab on my face with the stick and then spread evenly with my fingers.

thanks,. I guess I always thought applying straight was a no-no. I love this concealer so will get over it

I also dab on with the tube and then smooth with my finger.

For under my eyes I draw on a deep v shape with the tube, and then blend up towards my eyes so it doesn't cake up in the corners, and it highlights my cheek bones.

Will have to try this! I literally just tried it under my eyes and it looks great! Much better than Sleep in a Jar on me.
