Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

Has any one tried either? I just ran out of my Make Up Forever concealer and eventhough i do like it i feel it doesnt cover for very long. I am between the Laura Mercier and the MAC and wanted some opinions...

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

Are you looking to cover under eye circles or blemishes?

Which MUFE concealer did you try & which MAC/LM ones are you looking at?

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

I use the MUFE HD concealer. For LM i was looking at the secret concealer and MAC i was looking at the super finish concealer. I want to cover everything lol but especially under eye and blemishes. I was also thinking of pairing the MAC with the Studio Fix foundation just to see how it is and change it up since i have been using the MUFE HD foundation for the past year.

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

I used to try & use 1 concealer for everything, but 2 differrnt works better for me.
MAC Studio Finish was probably the closet I came to to an all in one product. I was able
to find a color close to my skin (and it blends & is not noticeable. It is a drier consistancy, so it doesn't wear off easily.

I switched to MUFE's pallete, mostly b/c I wanted the green shade to cover redness.

LM secret concealer is specifically for under eyes. It is very oily-not good for blemishes. It covers well--has a slight peach tone which is good for circles, but it didn't last long on me.
I just started using Bobbi Brown corrector, which I like. It has just been a few days , but I think it lasts long (I use peach & use it under foundation)

LM Secret Camouflage is for general use--it lasts long--I was just having touble finding a good color.

I use the MUFE HD foundation soemtimes, and Revon ColorStay other times. The MUFE HD concealer I liked, but I find I go through it so quickly.

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

i think i will try the MAC. It is way cheaper then the MUFE and Laura Mercier so if i dont like it i wont feel that bad... i just want something that works so i dont have to keep going from product to product,.

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

I used to use MAC forever and this past summer switched to LM after having it used on my for a wedding.

I find that the LM is a lot lighter and not as cakey as the MAC.

I also really like the LM tinted moisturizer. Every other kind I tried made me breakout but this one doesn't. So I have the Tinted Moisturizer, primer, double concealor, loose powder and under eye illuminated (works wonders)!

There is a whole started kit you can get for $65.

Re: Concealer: MAC vs Laura Mercier

I use Mac studio finish and love it, I also like benefit erase paste but only if I mix it with another concealer. For every day use I use Mac, if I'm going out and need extra coverage I mix both ( I do Mac first and then Benefit on top) I have a pretty bad dark circle issue so it's not often I find a concealer I rave about
