NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUPColor Correcting Concealer Palette

After a fall on the ice I had significant bruising on my face that needed covering. This product was very helpful with color correcting to help the concealer do its job. When bruises heal there are lots of color changes and this kit allows you to conceal all of them. I used it with a heavy concealer and it worked great. It may take a little practice and playing around with the colors to find out what works best for your skin and situation. Good for under eye circles and blemishes as well.

The color payoff is impressive for the price point. The green and peach shades, in particular, do a fantastic job of neutralizing redness and dark circles. The product is long-lasting when set with powder.It is budget-friendly, making it an excellent choice for those looking for an affordable option. It offers a wide range of correcting shades, ensuring versatility for various skin concerns. The formula is creamy and blends easily, allowing for seamless application. Additionally, the compact design makes it convenient and easy to use, even on the go.For its price, the NYX Color Correcting Concealer Palette is a fantastic choice for beginners like me. While it may not compete with high-end options in terms of texture, its performance and shade range make it a worthwhile purchase. I’d rate it 4/5 stars.

If you have come across this review and know how to use color corrector concealer then the first part is for you. If you are someone that has come across this review and are wondering what on earth these crazy colors are used for, then you will want to read to the end.PLEASE NOTE: I have fair-light skin so my review and advice is based on how it works for my skin tone.I have a pretty even skin tone, but I do get Botox. From time to time I am left with slight bruising or red marks. Covering those was my main motivation to purchase.I really love the size and color variety of the compact. It fits perfectly in my case and I don’t need to take with me multiple concealers.In a warmer environment/when the product is warm, it mixes really well. I am even able to mix it into my everyday concealer.The product is very heavy and thick so a little is all you need. It definitely stays put and even at the end of the day everything is in place.I like the thick creamy consistency for covering bruises, injection sites, scars, zits etc. But I really struggled with it when it came to under my eyes. No matter how little I used and how much I blended it out, it never sat right. It sits in wrinkles and lines I didn’t even know existed! My skin type is ‘normal’ but it made my under eyes look very cakey and dry.It is my holy grail for covering minor imperfections. I can create a layered color most of the time and eliminate needing my regular concealer for those areas.I am not an everyday foundation wearer and this product hasn’t required me to become one. It does the job!It would have been a bonus if it had worked under my eyes. However for what I purchased it for it works fantastic!So if you are someone that sees these crazy palettes with orange and purple and take off running to grab the concealer in you shade…the rest of this review is for you.Color correctors really aren’t as daunting as they look. With a bit of practice, they will become one of the most important pieces in your make-up case.So how do they work? Well each of those crazy colors has opposites. Remember the color wheel in art class? When you use the two opposite colors together you neutralize them.We all want to have that perfect flawless skin, but most of us don’t. Have you put your concealer under your eyes and no matter how much you have applied you still look like you have purple bruises under them? That is because your concealer matches your skin tone, which isn’t your usual skin tone in that area. Fear not! We can solve the problem. We neutralize those imperfections. Once you do that you have an even-toned surface to apply your skin-colored concealer.Red zits staring at you despite layers of concealer? Not a problem, neutralize those with the green. Under-eyes look sallow, purple, and sunken in? Brighten those up with yellow. Look at whatever you want to hide on your face and pay attention to the color, then you can use the right shade to neutralize the issue.If you are unsure exactly what color to neutralize, experiment. Not sure if it’s purple or blue? Then try a thin layer of yellow corrector in one area and orange in the other. Make sure you blend it out well and then apply your concealer over the top. You can then see which looks the best. If you need to, mix the colors!The color that people see the most but fear the most is that dreaded green! You hear that’s what you should use to cover up that glowing red zit that appeared overnight, but when you have done so you are left with an even uglier green mark on your face. No matter how much concealer you put over it, the color still doesn’t look right it looks green. It may seem like an impossible fix but it is a really easy one to solve.The first tip is less is more. Start with a really small amount. You are trying to neutralize the red> Remember your skin is still going to look green. However, we want a HINT of green not full-blown Halloween makeup. If in doubt, blend out more. You may think you have blended it out enough but a lot of the time that isn’t the case. Start with a really tiny amount and work up if needed. Then you can go ahead and place your normal concealer over the top. It is possible to do it the other way around but much more tricky.My favorite (and much easier method if the product is workable) is to mix the green with your everyday concealer. The goal is to make it look like your regular concealer but with just a slight hint of green. Once applied the green and the red will neutralize and it will look just like your skin-colored concealer

I really wanted to love this, but it’s just ok. The green is too intense to blend in. The only place I’ve successfully used the green is on my eyelids as I’m putting eyeshadow after. The yellow and pink are very nice. I’ve not used the purple. There’s a couple pigment-less spots I’ve used the darkest shade on.Maybe it’s a little too slick, or maybe it’s not working so great on top of sunscreen. But it just seems ok, not great, not awesome, not life changing.

Perfect color corrector. Use this to correct dark circles and redness . Second time to order.

Great color correcting palette addressing multiple concerns at one go. It covers redness, blemishes, acne, under eye circle. Yellow covers discolorations on the skin and very helpful for covering under eye circles, pink is used for light skin tones to highlight, peach is used for medium skin tones mainly to highlight, green shade reduce the redness, purple is used to lighten the skin shade and brown is used for deep skin tones mainly to highlight. It corrects, camouflages and brightens. It has a creamy formula, light weight, no crease formula and blend able. Travel friendly palette and a must to buy.

I'm learning the way folks do makeup with different colors really fast. I didn't want to invest in one of those expensive palettes until I tried it out on a simpler scale.

It's very thick and is hard to bend, so foundation is almost a must after. I have found it covers red and dark circles pretty well, but the 'sallow' brown/sunspots not so much. I would actually recommend a color correcting face primer. The concealer is good.
