EX1 Cosmetics Delete Fluide Concealer, £10.50
THE HYPE
EX1's Delete Fluide Concealer has already been sported by stars like Margot Robbie, Paris Jackson and Hailey Baldwin to give them that flawless, red-carpet finish and follows in the footsteps of the brand's original foundation, which garnered a cult following of major celebrities (think every Victoria's Secret angel ever!) for its precision matching and skin-on-skin effect. The concealer is rumoured to match up to its predecessor's ability to seamlessly match skin's natural tones, as well as provide hard-working coverage without looking cakey. No big deal then...
REVIEWER
Lottie Winter, Beauty Editor
BEAUTY BIO
While I have olive-undertones, I'm impressively pale at the moment thanks to the (endless) winter weather we've been having. I'm also prone to dramatic dark circles following even one minute's sleep deprivation and am currently experiencing a breakout of little under-the-skin spots around my hairline.
THE REVIEW
Thanks to a four-year bout of teenage acne, I am a total concealer connoisseur and have extremely high standards - and even higher expectations - for my chosen concealer. I also need it to magically multi-task, have the ability to cover under-eye circles without creasing, but still be hard-working enough to provide budge-proof coverage on my blemishes.
I have to admit, it was hard to ween myself off my beloved Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer but I was excited by the prospect of Delete Fluide (I'm already a total convert to EX1's foundation - it is one of the only ones that can cater to my pale, olive skin predicament).
Luckily, Delete Fluide met all my many demands. I used one shade lighter than my foundation, as all beauty girls know to do, and it not only masked my dark circles and blemishes with ease thanks to its 25% pigment content, but it was impressively blendable for a creaseless finish all day long.
THE VERDICT
After one week of use, EX1 Delete Fluide is fast becoming my go-to concealer. My only criticism would be that I would like to see a wider selection of darker shades (currently there are 13 shades correlating to the foundation) so it can be enjoyed by more people.
