This concealer fell short of my expectations - it accentuates, dries out, and lacks staying power on my skin's imperfections.
summarizeEditor's Summary
I was super stoked to try Kristall Minerals Cosmetics' concealer, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The product is super pigmented and has a soothing effect on inflammation, which is a total bonus for sensitive skin. However, it accentuates my skin's imperfections, dries out my skin, and lacks staying power. I was hoping for a concealer that would provide long-lasting coverage and a natural finish, but this one just didn't deliver. I'm really disappointed with this product, but I'll share my full thoughts below.

Hello everyone!
I'm excited to share my honest thoughts on Kristall Minerals Cosmetics' concealer.
The description claims it's a mineral-based product designed to cover up imperfections, and it's indeed highly pigmented. It also helps to soothe inflammation, which is a nice bonus.
Apparently, this concealer is the go-to product for a beautiful and healthy-looking complexion, but I wasn't blown away by it.
Let's take a closer look at the product features and packaging:
Product type: concealer
Features: mineral-based, loose texture
Category: decorative cosmetics
Effect: matte finish, imperfection coverage
Brand: Kristall Minerals Cosmetics
Country: Russia
Tone: CN1, light neutral
Weight: 0.2g
Price: approximately 500 RUB for 4.2g
When I opened the product, I was greeted by a small white cardboard box with a minimalist design. It's cute, but not particularly impressive.
The packaging itself is quite convenient for getting familiar with the product.
Inside the box, you'll find a tiny container that looks like a bottle for sparkles or powders.
The container itself is made of sturdy transparent plastic with a black screw-top lid. It's sleek and stylish, but not particularly functional.
When you flip it over, you'll notice there's no protective membrane or foil inside. You'll need to be careful when opening it.
As for the contents, this product is more like a loose mineral powder with a pigment added. The powder is so fine it can get a bit dusty when you open the lid.
Application:
Applying this concealer can be a bit tricky. You can apply it with your fingertips or a brush, but it's not the most intuitive product.
I usually apply a classic concealer to moisturized skin, and then cover it with powder. But with this concealer, I wasn't sure how to apply it; a loose concealer and powder? My skin wasn't going to be happy about it.
Blending:
Let's take a look at how it blends:
I applied it in layers:
It did a good job of toning down the darkness, but on my hand, the concealer stands out and is noticeable, even though my skin is super pale. The shade CN1 looked too light to me (maybe I'm just being picky).
Later, I felt like the concealer was adapting to my skin tone (or started to disappear).
It does a great job of covering up red spots from post-acne, breakouts, and bruises if you apply it over another concealer or a rich moisturizer, but there's a high chance it will start to cake. If you apply it to dry, problem skin, the concealer might dry out the area and accentuate flakiness (a super-hydrating cream +/- can save the situation, but even with it, the concealer starts to cake).
It feels like I just powdered a specific area of my skin.I prefer my skin without this concealer:
Top - before, bottom - afterBefore/after Don't apply it around your eyes or on your eyelids for the same reason - it cakes and dries out:
I'm not sure what to make of this product, although it's probably just me not knowing how to use it.
My verdict:
For myself, I've noted that if you have dry skin with flakiness, it's better to avoid this product, as it might make things worse and accentuate the flakiness. This product is more for normal, healthy skin without any issues, just to give your face a rested look or tone down redness without a heavy mask effect.
Pros and cons:
Finishing touches are nice, but they don't completely make up for the product's flaws. It blends in with the overall vibe, which is a plus. It doesn't cause any breakouts or allergic reactions, which is a relief.
However, it dries out my skin, which is a major letdown. It's tough to apply, which is frustrating. It gets all powdery, which is annoying. It doesn't cover up major flaws, which is a huge disappointment. It rolls off if I apply it to damp skin, which is a pain. It accentuates fine lines, which is not what I want.
Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate your interest in my review!
