L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-blendable Concealer – Light/Medium Review
Hello, Today I am reviewing the L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-blendable Concealer in Light/Medium, my first base product from L’Oreal.
Product Claims: True Match Concealer precisely matches your skin’s texture and tone and coordinates perfectly with True Match Makeup, Powder, and Blush.
- Formulated with Opti-Blend™ Complex to even your skin tone, cover imperfections, and conceal under eye circles.
Direction for Use:- Using the provided wand, dot concealer on blemishes and imperfections. Then blend outward, from the middle.

Packaging:- The concealer comes in a round see-through tube type packaging with a silver cap. The packaging is similar to lip glosses with a difference that it has a brush applicator with bristles instead of sponge applicator but they are soft and doesn’t feel harsh against skin. The packaging reminds me of the Maybelline water-shine lip glosses.

- Neutral – Medium/Deep N6-7-8
My experience with L’Oreal True Match Super-blendable Concealer – Light/Medium:-
L’Oreal True Match Super-blendable Concealer is a concealer in liquid form with medium-thin texture which isn’t runny and gives a hassle-free application. I dab it and swipe the brush on my under eye area and then work it out with finger tips. The texture is medium –creamy which glides nicely and the light-weight formula blends super-quickly into the skin. It matches my skin tone perfectly and never looks ashy or turns grey giving an illusion of even deeper dark under-eyes, the problem I faced with my Garnier Tinted Under-eye Roll on. The amount can be easily controlled with the brush applicator but even if applied excessively it doesn’t look overboard and can be blended a bit more till it disappear into the skin.
The concealer sets to comfortable matte finish and as I have dry lids so don’t feel the need to set it with powder but super-oily lids can go head and set it with a powder. It doesn’t provide full-coverage but I don’t have deep dark circles and it works nicely for my medium dark under eye area providing light-medium coverage which I prefer for everyday look. I like the natural finish it provides, giving a brightened under-eye look instantly.
The concealer stays put whole day for me and I haven’t experienced any creasing even for 6-7 hours but by the end of the day it starts setting in fine lines but still doesn’t look that bad. I usually don’t go out but sit in office under AC 9 to 5 ;), so can’t comment on its outdoor performance.
EOTD–
Other than under-eyes, I tested it for concealing facial area like acne makes, uneven skin tone and I am so glad to say that it did a fabulous job at that front too. It works well at hiding the uneven skin tone, reducing redness and makes the pores nearly vanish giving a silky smooth, younger looking skin ;). My pores aren’t too large but yes it covered whatever I have.

Pros of L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Concealer:-
- Medium thin texture
- Light-weight formula
- Blends super-quickly
- Light-Medium coverage for under eye area
- Cover up redness and acne marks quite well too
- Gives a smooth, matte finish
- Doesn’t look cakey at all
- Last 6-7 hours easily on my dry skin
- Simple but convenient packaging
- Available in 3 shades to choose from
Cons of L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Concealer:-
- Bit expensive
- Doesn’t provide full coverage
- Start setting into crease lines after 7 hours
Recommendation:- L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Concealer in Light/Medium is priced on the higher side but seeing the results I would say its totally worth it. The brush applicator is easy to use and the shade is a pretty good match for me. It blends really well into my skin covering up the dark under eye skin (not completely though). I also tested it on acne marks, redness around nose, open pores and it worked wonderfully on all of these giving a super-smooth, even toned skin. The formula just sinks into the skin covering the problematic areas. It sets to a comfortable matte finish so dry skin should moisturize the area before hand for an effortless blending, Oily skin will need to set it with a powder.
If you are usually worried about concealer getting cakey then give this a shot, it doesn’t know anything about that. A great daily wear concealer, Recommended!
Rating:- 4/5

Nice review .. I want to try this one, but i can never find te darker shade, I feel this is very good for everyday use, when we dont need heavy concealing.

Yes , the formula is such that .. it is made for everyday concealing 😉 !!
U won’t believe, but I never use concealed on my face :)but this one seems nice, in case I feel like splurging on a concealer this would be my choice!!
Aree u to dont require na.. u have such a beautiful skin!! glowing glowing 😉
But in case if at any time in future.. u wanna start .. u can try this!! 😉
I have never tried concealer’s…. :/
let me know something which is basic which i can try out… I mean for the beginners which would be the best one?
Kya keh rahi ho.. sachhi!! 😛 😛

Thanks a lott dear.. I havent tried the Revlon Concealer .. will give it a shot!! 🙂 🙂
It really nice.. do try!! 🙂
Have heard so much about this one and tempted to give it a try as well..but already have few to finish off first! will def check out once my current ones are over 🙂 this one and revlon photo ready both are in my wish list!
Yes pari ..its really nice.. i am very happy with the results!!

Looks like there are so many girls who dont need one.. wish I could escape it too.. 😛 😛
Thanks a lott Anita.. <3 <3 🙂 🙂
As Soon As My Current Ones Get Finish, ‘ll Try This! Seems Really Good!
My Fav are Kryolan Derma Range, MAC Pro Long Wear Concealer n PONDS BB Cream as an Eye Concealer Works Gr8 For Me.. It Creases Very Minimally After Some 7-8 Hours!
I am planning a visit to Krylon store pretty soon!! 🙂 :)All set to try its base makeup stuff!!
BTW .. is the Derma range suitable for dry skin??
MAC prolong wear seems to be everybidys fav I gotta get it !! 😉
BB cream as a conclear that’s great .. I tried Maybelline one but it didnt worked!!
I like this one a lott .. u should give this a shot.. and you can come up with comparison between these!! 🙂
Hehe.. Yes!
Derma Range For Dry Skin.. I Think No! Even On My Oily Acne Skin, I Do Quite a Work To Blend it Seamlessly! But You Should Try It At The Store.. Even I Have To Visit Kryolan Store But It’s a 2 Hour Drive From My Home 🙁 Maybe I’ll Visit It After My Exams, Which Finish Next Week!
I Won’t Advice You To Go For MAC Prolong Wear Concealer.. It’s Pump Is Horrible!! Wastage of Product! At Rs.1300, Packaging Should Be Improved!
I Think You Should First Try Base Makeup At Kryolan Only, And, Then See For Options At MAC.. Kryolan Is Really Under Estimated :-s
Thansk for the Recoo Heena.. I will check out them out at teh store before purchasing..
Yes Krylon is almost 2 hours from my place too.. wish they were more easily available.!!
Ohh ur exams going on.. All teh besst!! do weelll .. 😀 😀
Ahh.. sachhii.. yes we deserve better packaging!! I am keeping away from MAC and trying the rest available before spending my hard-earned money there!! 😉 😛 😛
Yes, Krylon is better priced and have some amazing products its just the availability that keeps me away!! 😉 🙂
Exactly! I Want To Keep High End Brands As My Last Option!
Oh! Where Do you Put Up, Btw?
Thanku!:)
*Same pinch* .. I just think I get used to high ends.. I am gonna come back to drug storess!!
so just test all teh drugstores before moving on to High-end and I will love the transition even more!! 🙂 🙂
I am in Delhi -NCR dear.. waht abt u ??
