Features of Simple Beauty Minerals Concealer and Balancing Lotion

Concealer: 

  • weightless, silky powder
  • effective in the under eye area
  • water resistant 
  • can be used as foundation if you need more coverage
  • just as effective as a typical concealer 

Balancing Lotion: 

  • this lotion was the perfect base to put on before the powder concealer
  • it is great for normal to oily skin 
  • it is NOT at all greasy 
  • it soothes the skin and was great all over my face and neck

Now for my review:

I was given concealer and a bottle of balancing lotion.  After talking with Lisa we decided on these two products since I usually only wear concealer and a little bit of mascara… as a 3rd time mom of a newborn who never sleeps – I MUST use some concealer before leaving the house!  I was skeptical that a powder could provide coverage for my under eye circles but I was pleasantly surprised!

I used the lotion first right out of the shower all over my face.  The lotion was thick and smooth.  I only needed a tiny amount to moisturize my whole face.  It felt light and great!

After it was absorbed I moved on to the concealer.  Lisa recommends using a brush for the concealer but you can also just use your finger.  I tried both and the results were the same.  I couldn’t tell the difference between my regular concealer and the mineral based powder by looking – but the FEEL of the mineral powder was amazing!!  It is light and so smooth.  I absolutely loved it!! 

What I Liked:
  1. The silky feel
  2. The balancing hydration
  3. The ingredients
  4. The look
  5. The company and LISA!! 
What I didn’t Like:
  1. Nothing!

    I use mineral makeup. I love it and most of it doesn’t break me out like other makeups

  5. Ceri yates says:

    I use physician’s formula brand of makeup and a little Mary Kay. I haven’t tried this brand bit would love to find a clean lotion and concealer.
