Is it just me, or is it practically impossible to find something good concealer? The higher coverage ones look heavy on my skin, while the lighter formulas barely work on my dark circles (trust me, I’ve tried a lot of under-eye concealers). Not to mention the fact that each formula tends to shrink after a few hours of wear. Even as a beauty editor with access to hundreds of samples, I still struggle to find the perfect formula. So, when I heard about the new Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer, I didn’t even bother trying it, assuming it would be just like everything else.
However, a few weeks after it launched, it felt like everyone I knew was talking about how great it was. I turned to a friend of mine and said, “Is this really worth the hype?” And she answered with a firm yes. My friends aren’t capable of embellishing, so I did what any beauty journalist would do, and decided to try it for myself.
I don’t want to spoil the entire review, but if I had to describe this product in one word, I would just say Very good. It’s like a blur skin filter in a bottle. But more on that, and everything else I want you to know, below…
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer Review
Formula
Okay, let’s get into it. It is lightweight, high coverage, Hydrating concealer (yes, really), which the brand claims provides up to 24 hours of creaseless wear. Although I haven’t personally worn it for 24 hours straight, here’s what I can confirm. First, there is coverage Good. So good that you really only need a small amount to apply to your entire face. Secondly, somehow this concealer also feels incredibly creamy and hydrating. Tilbury refers to it as its “elastic-stretch” formula, and I can’t think of a better phrase than that.
It contains hyaluronic acid and squalane, so it soothes even my incredibly dry under eyes. However, it is designed to combat dark circles, blemishes, redness, pores And Pigment in mind, and like the Airbrush Flawless Foundation, it really does provide a blur effect. Plus, it comes in 34 colors, including a wide range of cool, neutral, and warm tones.
application
The stick comes with a unique diamond-shaped applicator that makes it easy to swipe on the skin. But, as mentioned above, this concealer takes a bit of getting used to. Very Long way, so I recommend dotting it on the skin rather than swiping full-on. Funnily enough, this wand also comes with a “precise micro-dot tip,” making it quick and easy to do. i used both Used a makeup brush and my fingers to blend it out, and found that both worked well.

Decision
So, what’s the verdict? I didn’t think I’d say this, but I’m kind of in love with this product. I have yet to find a concealer that gives this much coverage and also feels light and natural on the skin. As someone who is attracted to The “no makeup” makeup look, but also prone to breakouts and incredibly dark circles, this concealer bridges the gap between a weightless formula and a blurred finish, which isn’t an easy thing to do.
That being said, I think it’s pretty easy to get ahead of it. When I first tested it, I applied too much of it and experienced a bit of clumping and creasing throughout the day, but I’ve since learned the error of my ways. If you want to get the most out of the formula, I suggest starting with a small amount and building up from there. In all honesty, I’m not sure anyone can hide Completely Creaseproof, but I’d say it comes pretty close.
