Maybelline, Instant Age Rewind Concealer, Dhs59
When you’re very pale with cool undertones (like moi) it can be really tricky to find a concealer that covers coverage without being cakey and yellow. This concealer is gorgeously soft, slides on like a serum and blends beautifully. The slightly rosy tone does fair skin many a favour while still allowing your natural tones to peek through. The best part is putting it on in the morning, then getting on with my day knowing it won’t budge.

Nars, Radiant Creamy Concealer, Dhs165:
This is the best lightweight concealer I’ve ever used. I hate feeling like I have make-up on and this concealer stays loyal to that cause. It blends easily into my skin and sometimes, people are convinced that I woke up like this. Totally worth the price and feeling!

Nina Stankova, Junior Assistant
Urban Decay All Nighter Concealer, Dhs145
My absolutely favourite is Urban Decay All Nighter for several reasons – first of all it is vegan and cruelty free (like me), and it works! I have tried tons of different products, my skin around the eyes is translucent (people think I’m sick when I don’t wear any make-up oops) and I worked as cabin crew for several years, this way I had an opportunity to test which products could stand up to the challenges of a long-haul There’s no need to apply multiple layers due it’s high coverage so it doesn’t built up in pores and fine lines (yep I have those too). I have completed my MUA training which sometimes helps but what I like about this one is that it doesn’t need any sophisticated application technique to look fab so it’s a great time saver when I’m running late (all the time).

Shiseido Synchro Self-Refreshing Concealer, Dh158
It was love at first sight, the pigmented concealer has a weightless and breathable finish that covers the darkest of circles and spots while also brightening skin. What I love most is the pioneering ActiveForce™ Formula that refreshes itself through heat, humidity, oils and facial movements to give you a well maintained coverage for up to 24 hours wear-time.
