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. 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.What does the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer do?
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.How to use the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer:

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.’Our verdict
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.Overall rating
