Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Precise Angles Concealer Review
The YSL All Hours makeup range is all about complexion perfection you can rely on – at all hours. The latest addition to the collection, the Precise Angles Concealer, follows suit. The full-coverage, long-wearing formula offers the same skin-loving and covering benefits, and I have been putting it to the test – here’s my review…
You Will Love YSL All Hours Precise Angles Concealer If…
If you want a full-coverage concealer that doesn’t look cakey or ever feel heavy, you’ll love this. Despite covering everything from spots to dark circles all day, it looks natural, feels comfortable and has a mostly skincare-based formula.
What Does It Do?
It’s a liquid, full-coverage, multi-use concealer that stays put all day. It offers a natural-looking matte finish with multiple uses: it can conceal blemishes and redness or sculpt and enhance your features.
How Does It Do It?
The concealer has a highly pigmented formula that quickly covers imperfections; if you need to layer up, it’s extremely buildable and doesn’t go cakey. An 85% skincare base works with your skin with ingredients like caffeine and jasmine flower extracts, so your skin is perfected, smoother, softer, and firmer over time.
What Does It Smell And Feel Like?
It has a creamy, weightless texture that easily blends into the skin. It’s comfortable and hydrating. As for the scent, it doesn’t have a distinctive scent—slightly floral perhaps—but it’s very subtle and dissipates once on the skin.
How Long Before You Need To Reapply?
The All Hours Concealer is designed to last. I applied it in the morning and was extremely happy with how well it lasted. Around 8 hours after application (when I finished work), I noticed it was wearing slightly on my chin and around my nose, but I touched my face a lot, so I put it down to that. It wasn’t that noticeable, and I didn’t feel the need to touch it up.
Best Place and Time To Use It?
Use the ultra-precise or broad tip to apply directly to the skin. Use your fingertips to blend the product into the skin, or use a brush to spread or thin out the product.
How Many Shades Are There?
There are 17 shades of the All Hours Concealer to choose from on Escentual. If you already use the All Hours Foundation, you’ll be pleased to know that the concealer shades match up with the foundation shades.
Precise Angles Concealer’s Design and Aesthetic Is Special Because…
The All Hours Concealer has a thin, broad-edged applicator that can reach all angles. You can conceal under eyes and imperfections with the ultra-precise tip to reach all spots, expertly sculpt face features with the broader side, or enhance the complexion with a full face-face application.
Sustainability and Values…
It’s dermatologically tested and non-comedogenic.
