Clear complexion is a must in achieving any makeup look. Unfortunately, not everyone is blessed to have clear complexion. I'm one of those persons since I recently got chicken pox and I'm still in the process of getting my perfect skin back. Although my face is filled with scars, I still managed to achieve a glass-skin look through cosmetic hacks. Oh and btw, here are things that I'm currently using for my scars.
I got a green color corrector since it corrects red spots and brown spots for light skin. Honestly I was supposed to get an orange corrector. Good thing the salesman suggested that I should get a green corrector since my skin is on the light side.

THE REVIEW
PACKAGING
The product comes in a 8g squeeze tube with a brush as its applicator. It's easy to control the amount of product for smooth application. The brush is similar to a paint brush but it's smooth and it helps blend the product on your skin especially on small areas.
I covered my scars with the brush applicator alone and it was all hassle-free
PRICE
PHP 315 in SM Department Store
CONSISTENCY & TEXTURE
It is a liquid concealer that isn't too thin or too thick-- just right. I blended the product using a beauty blender for perfect application. It is quite pigmented which served its purpose in color correcting the skin
After blending the green color corrector on my scars, I topped it off with a concealer in my skin's shade. I was honestly afraid that my face will turn green upon topping it off with a beige concealer. But to my surprise, it sticked to my skin covering all my imperfections. So it's a huge YAY for the product texture.
This is my skin after topping it off with a concealer. I swear that my skin looked that great using only the green color corrector and a beige concealer. Aside from the skin products, I applied light eyeshadow and lip tint.
LONGEVITY
I honestly fell asleep with makeup on considering that I took these photos in the afternoon. The morning I woke up, my brown scars were barely visible (but you can see skin-tone scars). Unlike the night that I applied it where you really can't see a scar. There were no green patches or what-nots which means the product blended well with the concealer.
SUMMARY
PROS
- The product comes with an easy applicator brush
- It is pigmented but not to the point where you look strange from the green color.
- It sticks well on skin and blends well with beige concealer.
- It lasts long. Specifically for 15 hours
- lt covers scars well
CONS
- It is quite pricey (PHP 315) for a 8g concealer
- The brush somehow absorbs the product and it's quite unhygienic if you don't wash it often
THE VERDICT
For a small tube, it truly served its purpose it concealing. I do not mind the price since the concealer reached beyond my expectations. This product proved that clear complexion can still be achieved even with scars underneath.
Effective ba? --YES it is very effective.
