M·A·C Studio Radiance 24 亮泽遮瑕膏 (NW10)

This product was provided to me by MAC. It's an eye care serum concealer that spreads easily and covers even a small amount. I squeezed the brush against the edge of the bottle, adjusted the amount, and dabbed it under my eyes, swiped it on the outer corners of my eyes, and also dabbed it on areas around my nose where I was concerned about redness, then patted it in with my hands. It really spread easily and gave a beautiful finish. I've tried many concealers because I've had trouble with dark circles, but this one worked for me.

This is my first time using liquid concealer, but it was easy to apply. I use it under my eyes and on the sides of my nose. I don't like too much coverage, so I only put a little, in tiny dots. It seems like it will never go away. Even with just a small amount, it completely removes dark circles and redness without feeling thick, and it stays looking nice even after time has passed. It keeps my skin looking fresh without peeling even when I apply it, even when I'm on a regular warm skin tone. NW11 was just right for me.

This product was provided to me by M.A.C. The shade used was NW11. I normally use a standard ochre shade, but it didn't look out of place on me. There are a whopping 14 shades, so it's great to be able to find a shade that suits me from the wide range of shades. The key is to squeeze the brush against the edge of the bottle to adjust the amount, and it certainly spreads very well, so even a small amount is enough to cover the areas you're concerned about. It feels just like a serum, and I also like the thin finish it leaves. #maccosmeticsjapan #serumconcealer #MACcosmetics

This is a comparison with theSAEM's CP Tip Concealer. [How to use theSAEM] 1. Apply Peach Beige to the dark areas of the bags under your eyes and tap vertically with a brush*1. 2. Apply 02 Rich Beige over a slightly wider area than 1 and tap with a brush. 3. Apply only 02 Rich Beige to melasma and dark spots and tap with a brush. *1: Shiseido Foundation Brush 131 is used. [How to use MAC Studio Radiance] 1. Apply to all bags under your eyes, bags, melasma, and dark spots, and then blend in NW13 while spreading it slightly with a damp, tightly wrung-out sponge*2. 2. Add more only to particularly dark spots and shadows, and use Shiseido Foundation Blend vertically with Brush 131. *2: These are the diamond- or house-shaped ones you can buy at drugstores, packs of 30 for around 300 yen, and are disposable. [Rating] Coverage: theSAEM > MAC Blending: theSAEM < MAC Cleanliness of makeup: theSAEM < MAC Ease of touch-ups: theSAEM < MAC When applying makeup in the morning, theSAEM is overwhelmingly superior in coverage, but MAC wins hands down in terms of how well it blends with the foundation after it dries or the passage of time, how clean it stays, and how easy it is to touch up if you have plans in the evening. Also, while I blended theSAEM with a brush, the MAC beauty advisor used a sponge, so I blended it with the clean side of the sponge (same as *2) that I originally used to apply liquid foundation, and it looked good, so I used the sponge the first time and blended the additional parts with a brush the second time. The beauty advisor recommended layering NW15 on darker areas, but for now I'm just using NW13. [Benefits] Switching to MAC has allowed me to get by with just one shade, which has saved me a little time. Also, I've given up on trying to completely cover dark spots and dark circles, so I've started wearing non-prescription glasses to hide them, which has saved me even more time... With the coming season, pollen can irritate the area around my eyes, so this method is the best for now.

I bought this for dark circles under my eyes, but the color was too bright... I use it as a highlighter, and it spreads so well that it never seems to run out. It's non-drying and feels good to use, so I'm thinking about buying a toned-down color for dark circles.
