Since good makeup starts with great skin, it makes perfect sense to combine the two in one step whenever you can. Which is why I love the new VB X Augustinus Bader Undereye Concealer, a collaboration between two of my favourites: one from the makeup and one from the skincare world. Victoria Beckham brings her signature second-skin coverage, infused with Bader’s TFC8®, Trigger Factor Complex TFC™ technology. The result? A super-light concealer pen that actually improves skin as it perfects.

Victoria Beckham says: “Imagine a concealer you need less the more you use it. The ingredient technology in The Concealer Pen is just as powerful as skin care. It acts as a superfood for your skin, combining skin care benefits alongside being long-lasting, the right consistency and coverage.”
The Results
Tests of the Concealer Pen showed that after four weeks of use skin showed visible improvement of fine lines, reduction of dark circles, less pigmentation and a decrease in puffiness.
How To Apply Concealer Under The Eyes
The best thing about using a light, skincare-makeup concealer is that it’s super easy to use. Here’s how to apply a pen concealer like this one to best effect.
PREP SKIN
Always apply your makeup to clean, hydrated skin. Cleanse skin and apply your usual eye cream or light moisturiser, giving it time to fully absorb before you apply your makeup.
APPLY CONCEALER
While there’s some debate around the makeup-concealer order, because this is a skincare-makeup hybrid, it should be applied underneath foundation. Click some product into the brush and dot under your eyes, starting at the darker inner circle and around to the outside. It can also be dotted around the edge of nose and above your cupid’s bow to brighten.
BLEND
Gently blend product into skin, outward from the inner eye toward the outside. Use the middle or ring finger for a lighter pressure, or gently press product into skin to avoid overstretching this delicate skin or lifting product away from its intended spot.
