Anyone use Laura Mercier Secret Concealer?

... what sort of texture is it? When I 'tried' it in the shop, it was very creamy - I expect due to heat from lights - but at home I find it quite a hard texture and therefore difficult/'stiff' (for want of a better word) to apply. So which should it be? Also, I use the secret brightening powder with it and the whole lot powders/creases in the creases under my eyes. Dry skin?? What does anyone think?

Hi Millie1- I use this and think it's fab;much better than Touche Eclat imo.(I have really dark bags and scare my own children without the full works)
The texture is creamy- I apply it with a brush.
I would put it somewhere warm -otherwise it will drag your delicate eye area skin.

Thanks ArticRoll - maybe my bathroom cabinet is just a tad too chilly.

mummy2aaron-it's great.
It comes in a pot and lasts forever.
I bought it from space nk shop- the assistants are really scarey and unhelpful but they have mail order online.

Touche Eclat is only available in one shade in the UK - which is why it doesnt work for some people.

There are 2 other shades available (one lighter, one darker) in other countries. try ordering on the interent.

Alternatively, Clinique and Dior both do excellent versions of Touch Eclat, they are the same idea, 'pen' format and same consistency of product.

The Laura Mercier Secret Concealer IS a different texture and is less oily so therefore not good on dry skin.

Benefit do a Laura Mercier style version which is creamier.

Hope this helps!
