Le Correcteur -- UD, Smashbox, Algenist, Amazing Cosmetics, YSL, Sephora Collection


I browse beauty products from time to time. I find great joy in finding new great treasures to be added on my collection. As I was browsing, I noticed that there's a lot of new color correctors in the market. And I find it funny - in a satirical way - that the universe seems to know that I badly need one. I'm suffering from breakouts recently and I'm finding it harder and harder to conceal them with my good 'ol BB Cream.

Anyway, here's the list of the shiny new color corrector concealers in the market:

  1. Urban Decay Naked Skin Color Correcting Fluid ($28) is a collection of high-tech, color correcting formulas that blur the look of imperfections. Comes in 5 colors - Mint (reduces redness), Yellow (correct dullness), Peach (masks circles/spots), Lavander (balances sallowness) and Pink (brightens dark areas).
  2. Smashbox Color Correcting Stick ($23) is a collection of buildable, creamy skintone-evening sticks to transform the complexion. it comes in 4 colors: Green (reduces redness), Lavander (brightens sallowness/yellowness), and Peach (for light skin) and Orange (for deeper skin) are for illuminating skin to conceal dark circles and hyperpigmentation.
