Day 2: Couch to Conference Call 


My Tuesday morning included five alarm snoozes, enough said. I was feeling extremely tired, had a terrible night’s sleep, and my under-eye bags were really puffy and dark. Unfortunately, my 9am Zoom conference call didn’t care. With just four minutes to spare, I rolled out of bed, quickly washed my face, grabbed my Cover Care Concealer and ran downstairs to my at-home office. I unscrewed the cap of the concealer and used the doe-foot applicator to smudge some full-coverage liquid under my eyes. The applicator is pretty thick, so I only needed one swipe to cover the whole area. I blended in the concealer with a few pats of my fingers and signed onto my meeting. I’m happy to report that no one knew I had rolled out of bed a mere few minutes ago. Hey, it happens right?! 


Day 3: Big Night In? BYO Concealer


As much as I miss going out with friends, we’ve made it a point to stay connected through all of this. Be it a virtual game night or group Zoom catch-up, we try to all get together at least once a week. Tonight, we’re celebrating my best friend’s birthday. When the clock struck six, I ran to my vanity to freshen up before singing onto Zoom. I had on a tinted sunscreen for the day but wanted to perk up my appearance just a tad before seeing everyone. I applied the concealer under my eyes and on the bridge of my nose, chin and forehead to cover any puffiness and brighten my overall complexion. I was pleasantly surprised by how even my skin looked after just a few swipes of this concealer. It covered up my unwanted discoloration but still felt breathable on my skin and gave a nice, soft matte finish. While I didn’t have on a ton of makeup, I still felt pulled together and confident in my complexion. 


Day 4: Stuck Inside and Breaking Out


My skin has been acting out something fierce these past few weeks. I’ve been diagnosed with rosacea and have been getting flare-ups every time I step outside. My normally smooth skin has been looking super bumpy, red and blotchy. It was really bothering me today and I wanted to cover up a bit of the redness. Given that the Dermablend Cover Care Concealer is allergy tested, non-comedogenic, vegan and approved for use on sensitive skin (hi, yes, me), I knew it was the perfect product to get the job done. I applied a bit to my forehead, nose and chin, then blended in the product with a damp beauty sponge. It stayed on all day, completely removed visible redness and kept my skin hydrated. It was just the pick-me-up my skin needed. This concealer truly had me and my complexion covered all week long and for every single occasion. It’s definitely one of my new favorite go-to products.
