Product Review: Afterglow Triple Eye Treatment (Concealer)
I promised you guys a full review on this concealer, so here she blows: I am absolutely wild about Afterglow’s Triple Eye Treatment, which for me works as an all-around concealer. Under eyes, sure—though circles like mine never fully cover—but I also use it around my nose, chin, and over any scars and discoloration. It’s the amazing thing about clean products, isn’t it? They just tend to be all-purpose.
Now, how this little gem came to be in my possession is somewhat muddled at this point. A few months ago we told you about our friend’s wedding. That day, somewhere between champagne toasts and waterproof eyeliner, Siobhan must have palmed me this little container of Praline-colored cover-up. [Siobhan's note: Yes, that's exactly what happened. Champagne, champagne, champagne, concealer swap, champagne.] I don’t think I used it then, but when I got back to Los Angeles I ended up trying it on a day when I was out of Jane Iredale and my RMS was in another bag.
Oh happy discovery! As luck would have it, I find this concealer to be a perfect marriage of those two other favorites: a little less thick than the “Un” Cover-Up, a little less liquid than the Jane. Which is not to say I won’t still have those in my arsenal or that I love them any less—but I’m having a bit of a “just right” moment with my Afterglow.
The ingredients are perfectly clean as well. Here they are:
Ingredients: cocos nucifera (organic coconut) oil, simmondsia chinensis (organic jojoba) seed extract, cera alba (organic beeswax), theobroma cacao (organic cocoa) seed butter, althaea officinalis (organic marshmallow) extract, camelia sinensis (organic white tea) extract, titanium dioxide (CI 77891), iron oxide (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499)
And don’t be confused as we were to see marshmallow—Wikipedia informed me that it’s actually a plant. [Siobhan's note: "Oh my god! It's a plant!"]
Have any of you tried this product? Discovered any other concealers that we have yet to mention?
I’d have to give it a try, but I already have 3 different concealers I’m still deciding on. After I’m done, I’ll continue exploring!
It looks lovely! Once I’m finished the RMS unconcealer I may give it a go, but the way that product lasts it may be another year…
I have a mineral powder concealer (alima) that i like, but i don’t love it, and the lasting power isn’t super great. may have to try this out… luckily my local organic spa carries afterglow!
Thanks for reviewing another clean line… Maybe you girls could line them with a Friday Deal sometime soon? It is always a great incentive:)
Great review! I’m also very interested in Afterglow’s Aloe Concealer that’s in a pump bottle, but I can’t seem to find a review of it anywhere :(
Great review! I’m a concealer-aholic as my dark circles never vanish. I’m always looking for new ones to try and this sounds lovely and what great ingredients! =)
Sounds like I have to try it! My fave is Nvey Ecos concealer that is just out in a new improved formula. Great stuff!
Oh my goodness! I’ve been eyeing this since reading your review and finally jumped at the opportunity for free shipping they had this past Labor Day weekend. Oh my goodness!!! This stuff is fantastic. I don’t have terribly dark circles but they’re definitely there and this stuff makes them disappear! I find it similar to RMS in that it’s moisturizing and you need only the tiniest amount to get coverage and it blends very very easily. I was also pleasantly surprised with the staying power (although I am sure that differs from person to person). Another great find, thanks so much for your informative reviews!
