Benefit Fake Up Crease Control Hydrating Concealer.

This one product fills in lines AND conceals dark circles!

This new little beauty from Benefit first had me with the name - Fake Up - followed by Crease-Control. CREASE CONTROL! If only I had control over these creases in my face. Well, that is what Benefit set out to do with this new hydrating concealer.

You see this concealer is different. Very different. It is a concealer stick, surrounded by a very special "hydrating ring".

This ring is made up of Vitamin E and Apple Seed Extract. It actually looks and feels like a very silky lip balm with a concealer in the core. But that is not important. What it important is that this ring helps the concealer do its' job better by helping the concealer to seemingly float on skin and over lines, not settling into them as most concealers do! That is what I call crease control.

Fake Up instantly hides dark circles as it diffuses those creases (fine lines) for silky smooth, long-lasting coverage. It comes in three shades to suit most skin tones: Light, Medium and Dark. It doesn't get any easier.  I am using medium and it is a perfect match for my skin.

Fake Up Crease Control Hydrating Concealer will sell for $24.00 when it becomes available in March online at benefitcosmetics.com and wherever Benefit is sold.
