Review Kevin Beautymaker Aqua Eye Concealer





I am not one of those people that follow trend so it took me awhile to make my first purchase of Kevin Beautymaker products even thought there has been a lot of talk about them on blogs and youtube. For those that are not familiar with this brand, it is a Taiwanese brand that was created by a famous makeup artist named Kevin.


The Aqua Eye Concealer is a moisturizing creamy concealer design specifically for the under eye area. For reference, I have fair skin with warm undertone, MAC NC20 and I purchase this in shade #2. It looks dark in the pot for my skin tone but it blends in well.




Price: $16.99 at imomoko.com


Pros: I love how lightweight it is. If something is moisturizing, it is normally in a rich cream consistency but this is both hydrating and lightweight which I find unique. Since it is lightweight, it looks very natural, like you are wearing nothing at all.


On bad day where my dark circle is really dark, I may need to touch up if I were to go out after work.  I like that it is lightweight enough that it does not cake if I touch up. If you find your eye area dry, you can dab a bit of moisturizer before touch up with concealer.


Cons: I would like to mention that is has little to no pink in it. It’s great for those with warm yellow undertone however, I think it may look odd on people with  pink undertone.


Dark circle comes in different shades.  Mine is brown/purplish.  Since there is no pink, it is not a salmon color.  My dark circles still show through with this.  To perfectly conceal, I need to wear bobbi brown corrector underneath.  To be fair, with most concealer, I need to wear a corrector underneath so this alone does not make this a bad concealer.


Overall: It’s a keeper for me. Rating 4.5/5

    I know, the only ecommerce I know that carry it is imomoko and there is no swatch on their site so it's like a guessing game.

  5. Hi Bostoniancouture,

    I have combination skin as well and never have problem with this concealer. Beside, there is little to no oil glands around your eyes area. Hope this help.
