Look Alive: Best concealers for early school mornings

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but sadly, summer is coming to an end. As an old season trails off, another rolls in. Just in case you weren’t aware, or chose to ignore it, school season is among us.

Cheers to the early mornings, annoying alarm clocks and the difficult mornings of rolling out of bed. If you love your sleep like I do, getting ready in the morning is not only hard, but it’s a chore. And if you choose to hit your snooze button five times for that extra ten minutes of sleep, getting ready can put you on a small time crunch.

To help with those early mornings and dark circles we have all experienced a time or two, (because we stayed up late watching Netflix) I have made a list of my top three must have concealers that will give everyone the “wide awake” look, no matter the amount of sleep they got.

First up on the list is the Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer. If you aren’t a big fan of heavy and full coverage makeup, this concealer is perfect for you. With its weightless coverage, this concealer is easily blendable, lightweight and leaves an invisible naked skin finish. The best part about this concealer is it’s enriched with matrixyl 3000, which contains peptides and helps support your skin to give it a youthful appearance and elasticity. Get the “no makeup” look while still getting great coverage with this concealer!

If you wake up, looking a straight zombie with huge bags under your eyes, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is just for you! This concealer is ideal for all skin types! It not only hides dark circles, making you look like you got hours of beauty sleep, but it leaves a natural luminous coverage and helps skin to be more even toned. With its hydrating and light diffusing technology, it leaves the skin with a smoother complexion. If you wear a heavier foundation, this concealer is the perfect match. The creaminess allows it to layer lightly for buildable medium to full coverage.

Last but not least, the amazing Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer. If you are like me and wear glasses, this product is your new go to! As one of Allure’s Best of Beauty award winners, this concealer won’t ever crease or flake on you. The formula gives off a full, creamy coverage as well as hides redness, dark spots and discoloration. This concealer not only improves the look of your skin’s tone and texture, but it’s filled with rich antioxidants and helps reawaken the skin. Had a long day at school and need to let out a cry? No worries. This concealer is waterproof, so don’t be afraid to let out some tired tears!
