The older I get, the less and less time—and honestly, patience—I have for my skin-care and makeup routines. Fortunately, I received the Victoria Beckham Concealer Pen to test just after my most recent birthday, which I’ve chosen to interpret as gift from the universe (and the PR gods).
The TL;DR? The Victoria Beckham Concealer Pen makes makes it so much easier and faster to maintain my skin-care and makeup regimens that it feels like a real-life cheat code.
This isn’t your mother’s concealer pen. It was formulated and created in collaboration with skin-care powerhouse Augustinus Bader, the brand responsible for so many celebrities’ skin-care routines it’s almost impossible to keep count. Although it’s a concealer, this product feels and acts like skin care that just so happens to seamlessly conceal flaws.
For one, it contains the same patented TFC8, or Trigger Factor Complex, as Augustinus Bader’s cult-favorite The Cream, Light Cream, Eye Cream, and other bestsellers loved and used by everyone from Glamour editors to Kelly Ripa and Kelly Rowland to makeup artists and beauty founders Patrick Ta, Bobbi Brown, and Jillian Dempsey. (And Victoria Beckham, of course.)
It also contains a robust formulation of acetyl hexapeptide-8, polyglutamic acd, and squalane, which work together to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, absorb and maintain moisture, and hydrate and protect the skin barrier. And, most importantly, it’s a fantastic concealer. It’s so good, in fact, that it’s already replaced my usual concealer, concealer brush, and even foundation.
Obviously, it comes chock-full of skin-boosting benefits, which I highlighted above. In addition to how powerful it works as skin care, this concealer is also extremely lightweight and long-lasting and plays well with other products like my moisturizer and blush. Plus, it seamlessly blends out to serve as an overall foundation due to its buildable coverage.
