NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer Dupe!

I ran out of my main beauty products all at once last week. My toner, my concealer, my eye cream and my eyeliner were all gone within days of each other. The thing I decided that I could not go home without was concealer. So when I went into find my perfect shade, it turns out I need a more yellow toned concealer to hide my undereye circles.

The first one the consultant suggested was the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard. It perfectly masked my dark circles, but at $28 a tube, I had to ask for something cheaper. She directed me to the Sephora Collection, which I usually stay away from, because sometimes I feel like it might be cheap. However, the 8 HR Wear Perfect Cover Concealer in 22 Light Natural is an exact match. I swatched both in the store and walked arounf trying to match them with another (reasonably priced) product and just couldn't. Nothing had that yellow tint that I needed. So I settled and was super pleased with what I got, especially for $15.

They don't look alike in these pictures, but, all the more reason to go in and spend some time hours in the store.

Lesson: if the makeup the consultant suggests is too much, she'll find you a cheaper option that matches exactly.
