I Tried Kendall Jenner’s Favourite Concealer And It’s The Best I’ve Ever Used – Plus, It’s On Sale

2 hours ago 3

If a bright and beautiful under-eye area is your MO then chances are the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is already on your radar. Beloved by TikTok, celebrity make-up artists, and celebrities - Zendaya and Kendall Jenner are purported to be fans - it’s no exaggeration to say that this product has reached cult status. And it’s currently discounted in the Black Friday sale. In need of further sway? Here’s my full review.

What does the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer do?

In short, a lot. It’s described by the brand as a 'multi-tasking hero' and I’m inclined to agree. Hydrating hyaluronic acid, soothing vitamin E and nourishing grape seed extract mesh together creating a moisturising formula that delivers medium-to-full coverage. Under-eyes are brightened, blemishes blurred and the face sculpted - with just a few deft swipes. Bonus points for the fact it comes in a whopping 30 shades.

How to use the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer:

I’m a sucker for a doe-foot applicator, and this one is just about as precise as they come. I use it to dab the tiniest amount onto blemishes before blurring out with the warmth of my finger tips. For under-eyes I simply dot it across the area before blending with a fluffy brush for the most natural, undetectable finish. I’d say less is more initially - this stops the product from becoming overloaded and appearing cake-y.

Our verdict

Rachael Martin, beauty editor

‘A cult classic for good reason, this has been a staple in my make-up bag for…what…ten years now? (Look to my mucky packaging if you need proof) The texture is creamy and rich (without erring on the thick side) making it ideal for layering - it melts into the skin beautifully. I also adore the buildable coverage - under eyes are brightened in an instant - think radiance, without any hint of shimmer. If you’re someone who deals with blemishes (raises hand) then this works a treat here too by minimising redness and softening the appearance of the spots themselves. A reminder - always set with powder to ensure ultimate staying power. And stay it does. I can apply the concealer before work at 8am (pre a full day of meetings) and it’s still sitting pretty come cocktail hour.’

Overall rating

Whether I'm faking a full night's sleep, blurring away blemishes or carving myself some cheekbones, I'm reaching for the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer - a bonafide beauty hero. 5/5.
