What the Company claims :

MRP: 18$ for 7.5g

Ingredients:

It is supposed to be Anti Cernes i.e Anti Wrinkles concealer..It comes in 6 shades from Lighter than Light to Medium/Dark.

I have the Medium in this which is perfect for my skin tone..so Medium would suit NC 35-37 and Mid Medium which is the second last would suit NC 40-42.

Blended

It comes with a white sponge which does help in blending it out..but it does not have a separate compartment to be kept and I do not keep it on the product as it comes..I don’t think thats hygienic to do..and I mostly use my fingers or sometimes a brush to blend it out.

the Balm timeBalm Concealer Review


Its very creamy but needs to be warmed up a little before applying..especially for the under eyes. Its very very opaque and just a little product is needed. More then the under eyes I feel this product is perfect for spot concealing. The best thing about this is its staying power. I have used this in extreme hot and humid climate and it stays put the whole day !

Pros:

1. Very opaque and gives complete coverage.
2. Does not transfer on tissues or anything.
3. Stays put the whole day !
4. Perfect for spot concealing.
5. Has some nice ingredients and they claim it can be worn before going to bed too..well that is not something I would do..
6. Economical for the quantity..this is going to last super long.

Cons:

1. Tub packaging.
2. Dry skin people might find it a little drying under eyes..they would need to use an eye cream.
3. Might settle in fine lines for a few..I did not face this problem.
4. Available online.

Overall I am in love with this product..though I am not sure people who prefer liquid concealers would like this..but those who require an opaque concealer for spot concealing..should surely try this out.

For comparision..this cost 18$ for 7.5g whereas MAC Studio Finish cost 17$ for 7g which is near about the same..and Studio Sculpt is 17$ for 5.5g

People in India can check this out on Strawberry.net..it is sometimes available at a much lesser price..but the availability is in itself very variable.

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 3/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.

    ‘Anti-wrinkle’ sounds intriguing. I mostly use my fingers rather than a brush to pat on concealer and I’m always worried that I’m stretching the skin a bit, so this looks tempting!!

    @BS: I also mostly use my fingers..if you use a ring finger then its fine I guess..until you not put pressure..
    @anju: Bobbi Brown is the best..which corrector did you get ?
