NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer: The Concealer That Changed My Routine
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer has been the bestselling concealer at Sephora for years. After 18 months of daily use, I understand why — and I have a few caveats.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is the concealer I recommend to almost everyone. After 18 months of daily use on my combination-sensitive skin, here's why it earns that recommendation — and the one situation where it doesn't work.
What It Is
A medium-to-full coverage liquid concealer in a doe-foot applicator. Available in 30 shades. Retails for $32. Key ingredients include hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and NARS' proprietary brightening complex.
How It Performs
The coverage is excellent — it covers dark circles, redness, and blemishes without looking heavy. The finish is radiant without being shiny. It blends beautifully with fingers, a brush, or a sponge.
Wear time is 8-10 hours before I notice any creasing under my eyes. For a concealer, that's excellent.
The One Caveat
If you have very dry under-eye skin or significant fine lines, the radiant finish can emphasize texture. In that case, I'd recommend a more hydrating formula — or setting it very lightly with a translucent powder.
Final Verdict
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is the best all-around concealer at Sephora. At $32, it's a fair price for the performance. Highly recommended for most skin types.
