Soap & Glory 'Kick-Ass' Concealer Review

Hey there!
So about a week or so ago my sister came home from Uni for a quick visit,
so we went shopping - and of course I picked up a few things.
 
One of these things was the Soap & Glory Kick Ass Concealer in Light...
 
 
 
I've tried a few Soap & Glory make-up products before, such as their Arch De Triumph
(lovelovelove) but not enough to give my full opinion on their range.
My first thought when seeing this concealer was: WOW it has 3 parts!!!!
 
 
The compact opens up to the concealer setting powder - a white/transparent
 pressed powder complete with a cute little powder puff.
That section can then be lifted up to reveal the actual concealer, which is split into
 2 sections - the left is a warmer pink colour for the under eyes, and the right is a
more yellow-toned colour to cover blemishes.
 
The under-eye concealer is quite creamy, and covered my sleepy bags completely!
I also found it effective as an eyelid primer when I was in a rush. :)
 
I found the blemish concealer to be a slightly firmer consistancy, and covered my
spots and redness fairly well. I was wary to use more than a small amount as
my skin is INCREDIBLY pale, and I think this colour is slightly too dark for me. :(
HOWEVER, once I layered on my foundation and powder, the effect was much
better, and the colour difference wasn't noticeable.

To conclude my little review, this is an excellent concealer, but maybe not
the best for someone as pale as me! I think for most people it would be
perfect, as I'm so pale most of the lightest shades of drugstore foundations
are still too dark for me! Also, this concealer may not be the best for
those with really dry skin.
Other than that, it's fabby! I especially like the setting powder, and the packaging
is to die for.
 
Hope this review has been helpful, thanks for reading! :)
