Look, I go on every concealer/Touche Eclat thread and say the same thing but nobody ever listens to me.

Touche Velouté by By Terry. £28 from Space NK. It is the best thing EVER. My eyes have purple shadows underneath and if I don't use concealer I look like one of the kids from the Just Say No video.

I think Su is just showing off that she is approcahing 40 and has never worn concealer, when I (old hag looking obv) have been wearing it since mid 20s.

No shadows or spots but red patch looking a bit odd

OllieWollieWoo - You need a green concealer to counteract the redness on your nose, this may look a little harsh on its own (fear not, it doesn't look too green on the skin) but it looks a lot more natural if blended with some foundation.

I'm not too big a fan of Touch Eclat, its ok on pale skin but not so much for darker skin tones. Just watch out the for the bright white circles you can get in photos if you use too much of it. I much prefer this

OllieWollieWoo · 06/05/2010 16:29

Just seen this - thanks WMUA - come to think of it, a friend who has pale skin too uses green stuff! Will ask her for details!

CybilLiberty · 06/05/2010 16:39

Ithink that green stuff is dodgy...you need a minute amount, I reckon any good concealer will cover red just as well

CybilLiberty · 06/05/2010 16:40

see what happens when you use too much

MayorNaze · 06/05/2010 16:48
