Concealer Is Our Drug.

M: Effing Kim France making me want $75 eye goop.



A: I KNOW. I CAN'T WANT THAT.

M: NOPE.

A: And the concealer she linked is SEVENTY DOLLARS. And I'm pretty sure it's magical...right?



M: No. NO. NO MORE.

A: I love the reviews on the concealer. All those people are like, "I AM SURE THIS IS THE HOLY GRAIL NO REALLY I THINK IT MUST BE."

M: It MUST be because otherwise I wasted my money like a chump. HOLY GRAIL.

A: No wayyyyyyy. It's made from unicorn dreams. YOU WILL FUCKING GLOW.

M: Unless that concealer can magically give me a solid 8 hours of sleep a night, it's bullshit. Though if it did that I would pay a LOT more. Like, a lot.

A: I would totally shell out for sleep concealer too. I am pretty serious about concealer in general.

M: I keep using Fake-Up because it's so easy but it's not really beefy enough.



A: Fake-Up is my base layer concealer and I put the Nars stuff over that. My concealer game is complicated.

A: Ugh, the more I read about that Cle De Peau concealer the more I want it.

M: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

A: No, seriously, the Saks site has this warning:

DUE TO HIGH DEMAND, A CUSTOMER MAY ORDER NO MORE THAN 6 UNITS OF THIS ITEM EVERY THIRTY DAYS.

A: IT COST $70. FOR ONE. WHAT ARE PEOPLE DOING WITH IT.

M: Yeah they have that warning on the fahncy Hermès perfume in my gift guide too. NOT BUYING IT.

A: YOU CAN'T HAVE ALL THE THINGS, GREEDY-PANTS.

M: BUT I NEED 378 BOTTLES OF HERMES PERFUME SO I CAN FILL A BATHTUB WITH IT.

A: IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE MAKING METH WITH IT. GEEZ.

A: Wait, are you? Because if so we need to have a talk.

M: THAT WOULD BE WASTEFUL. Plus everyone knows you make meth out of Jolly Ranchers and Loves Baby Soft.

A: Worst drug ever. EVER.

M: Awful.

  1. Haven't commented in awhile but just so you know, you still crack me up daily.
    I like Fakeup, too, but I only use it under my eyes.
    Have you guys looked into the Korean/Japanese stuff at all? Like Holika Holika and Sana Keana (highly recommend the Pore Putty Pact- it won awards! I love it). That stuff and a Beauty Blender and you're "naturally flawless".
    Oh, and why don't you divert yourselves from this overpriced concealer by getting GIMME BROW or something? C'mon, you haven't even tried it, and it's sooo good.

    2. yeah you TRIED it- whipped some on in the store or something, right? But you haven't LIVED with it,LOVED it, seen what it's done for you day after day....
      ;)

      I had to go through a ton of research to figure out what was what with all the Holikas and SkinFoods and Sana Keana (shades, what the hell is it, etc) but once I'd done that, I went ahead and got a bunch of BB creams, powders, serums, etc etc- and they have all- I can't call it anything but miraculous- performed unbelievably well. Plus everything is so cute and cheerful...and inexpensive... and have cool things like peach and sake in them....(I order off Amazon and I have gotten everything from Korea and Japan super fast. And they always send lots of cool samples and origami gifty things. I'm a total convert. )
      Anyway. Keep up the good work, you guys are hilarious
