No7 Trio Concealer & Mono eye shadow - Wheatsheaf


Hello!

I wanted to post reviews on No7 Trio Concealer & Mono eye shadow - Wheatsheaf for a long time and somehow i always came up with some other posts... While i have these 2 product for months already!

I'll start with the concealer review... A few months ago i was still in search for "perfect" concealer and i thought it was mission impossible since i've tried a lot of drugstore concealers (and some high end ones) and none impressed me so much that i could say i want to use it forever.
Anyway No7 trio concealer was just "another" product i decided to try but i didn't expect much since i never felt that No7 products work well for me... But when i tried it i couldn't believe how good it is! :-D
So i started to wear it every single day and i am still so happy with it that i don't want to use any other concealer. This was probably my the best buy of the year!
It comes in plastic handy packaging and contains 3 different colors - all 3 perfectly match my fair skin tone.
The lightest (pink toned) is for the under eye circles, it covers them perfectly and it makes my eyes look more awake. Absolutely brilliant shade! :-)
The second is light beige tone, good for hiding small spots, but i use it also for under eye circles.
The third is dark beige tone perfect to cover acnes and small scars. Sometimes i mix light and dark beige tones to create perfect match color.
It lasts for hours after i apply it, it is very creamy and also feels very light on the skin, so it doesn't create cakey look. I definitely recommend this concealer because it is just great, probably the best concealer i've ever had. :-D

My rating (scale 1-5, 1 - the worst, 5 - the best)

* quality: 5 (but i would rate it even 10 because i just love this product!)

* packaging: 3 - i wish it comes with small mirror inside the packaging

* how long does it stay on: 5 - great staying power

* would i buy it again: yes yes yes yes yes!

* overall: 5

* where to buy: No7 at Boots stores
Mono eye shadow - Wheatsheaf (55)
The reason why i chose this eyeshadow was becase it reminded me of my favourite Urban Decay eyeshadow "Sin" shade, so i thought it may be similar. But after i applied it i saw how different they are... The "Wheatsheaf" is very natural color tone, almost invisible on my eyes. It is actually more highlighting my skin instead of leaving any color. So that's what i mainly use it for - highlighting my cheekbones, nose and chin.

Here you can see how it looks after i applied it...

My rating (scale 1-5, 1 - the worst, 5 - the best)

* quality: 3 - in my opinion this color isn't pigmented enough, but it is ok as a highlighter

* packaging: 3 - plain plastic packaging with small eye shadow applicator, i wish it comes with small mirror inside

* how long does it stay on: 3 - if you don't apply good eye shadow primer this eye shadow will crease very fast

* would i buy it again: not so sure

* overall: 3... and i really wanted to love this eye shadow...It isn't too bad but i had higher expectations...

* where to buy: No7 at Boots stores
