I don’t know about you, but once I find a product that I really like it tends to be the only thing that I use for a while. This tends to only happen with concealer, and it’s probably why I don’t have many. (I have my full collection on Instagram) For a while now I’ve been using the Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer in the shade Fair Neutral.
I first bought this a while back and never got in the swing of using it. There was just something about it that I wasn’t keen on, but I tried it again in January and fell in love.
The Coverage
When I heard the name I assumed it would be a light formula with minimal coverage, but it isn’t. It’s actually full coverage, or ‘weightless complete coverage’, as it says on the packaging. I use this for highlighting under my eyes, and it’s brilliant for it. It blends easily, and stays put.
Staying Power
Following on from the last three words of the previous paragraph. Let’s talk about the lasting power. I don’t find this to crease, but I always set concealer with powder, so that might help in that aspect. I’ve never had a problem with this moving either, as once it’s on; it’s on. It tends to last all day on me, with no need for a top up.
Shade Range
There are 14 shades to pick from in this range. I have the lightest in Fair Neutral, which I find is light enough for under eye brightening. Sure the range isn’t massive, and it sure isn’t Fenty, but it could be a lot worse.
The Applicator
The applicator is a paddle rather than a traditional doe foot. I personally love it, as it dispenses the right amount of product without needing to go back in for more. It also doesn’t tug on the skin when applying, but goes on smoothly.
The Finish
I have dry skin, and I don’t find this to cling to dry patches at all. Even with a setting powder, it still doesn’t look incredibly dry. Instead it’s creamy, and weightless.
The Price
My least favourite part. This will cost you £19.50, which isn’t exactly cheap. It isn’t the most expensive out there though, as it is slightly cheaper than the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer. As that one comes in at £24. I got mine from Debenhams, where it is currently on offer for £15.60. (That is correct at time of publishing)
Overall
This is a recent favourite, that I have been loving. It stays in place all day, and the shade is a great colour for brightening. It’s a shame the price is so high, but it isn’t the dearest on the market. I do really like Urban Decay, as I also love their palettes and lipsticks, but this concealer is really great too.
What is your favourite concealer?

I’ve tried this, in exactly the same shade too and I love it! I didn’t re-buy as I personally wouldn’t say the coverage was as good as my drugstore favourites so I didn’t feel the need to splash out again. But I agree with literally everything in this post, I wasn’t expecting to be as thick and creamy as it was. Definitely one of Urban Decays winning products!

So glad you love it too! Would you not?! I love the coverage it gives, but I can imagine there are great dupes out there. The name is definitely a little misleading in that aspect, as it sounds like something thin and natural. That is so true xx
This sounds brilliant! It’s more than I’d usually spend on a concealer but it seems totally worth it. Brilliant review 🙂 xx

It’s definitely a little pricey, but it is a really great concealer! Thank you so much xx
Great review! I haven’t tried this one, but it looks good. Interesting to know that is offers full coverage, because you don’t usually expect that with these kind of concealers! My favourite one is the Bourjois Healthy Mix concealer. It comes in a little squeezy tube and a little goes a long way!

Thank you so much! It’s definitely a good one, and the coverage is too. It sounds so good xx
Thanks for review! I would love to try it because it looks really good but it’s a bit expensive xxx

No problem, thank you for stopping by! It’s definitely a little pricey, but it’s a good one xx
I love this concealer too! It is pricey, but I definitely think it’s worth it, plus so many department stores do discount days so you can pick it up a little cheaper! Fab review! xx
It’s so good isn’t it?! That is so true, you can definitely drop on to a good deal. Thank you so much xx
So many have raved about this however I couldn’t bring myself to spend that much on a concealer! I am faithful to Maybelline FitMe and Instant Age Rewind.

It is pricey, but it’s a good product. I’ve heard so many good things about that one xx
I have not actually used their concealer but I have been using the HD concealer by NYX, and Maybelline.
FASHION TALES
The NYX one is so good, and everyone seems to love the Maybelline ones xx
I really love this one too, it’s such a great concealer but I love the Tarte Shape Tape right now xx

I’ve heard some really amazing things about this concealer! I really hate thick concealers, and I’ve heard this one offers amazing coverage without being too goopy. Will definitely have to try next!

Me too, they’re such a good brand! It’s a good one for sure xx
I have been debating trying this concealer for some time now but it does sound like its brilliant, its the price which puts me right off 🙁 Brilliant post though, absolutely love your pictures xx

The price is definitely the worst part about it! Thank you so much, I appreciate that xx
I’m lookimg for a good concealer for my under eyes area and this looks amazing! I was thinking about the Nars or Mac one but your review is super positive so I want to try it!
This one is my all time favourite at the minute. The formula is one of the best I’ve tried. I hope you love it, if you give it a try xx
I remember this used to be my go-to concealer for a while; I also have dry skin and remember enjoying it until I have switched up my skincare routine and it started bunching up on top of my moisturizer (I blame it on the moisturizer). Have you tried their correctors? They are also very nice! x

Oh no! Gutted it isn’t compatible with your moisturiser! I’ve not tried the correctors, but heard they’re great xx
I can’t believe I still haven’t tried this concealer, in fact I’ve barely tried any high end concealers. I really want to try this one now!

I hope you like this one if you give it a try xx
I think I’m the last girl in the world to have not tried this concealer! I love the way you’ve described it though, sounds like one I’d like!
Helpless Whilst Drying
It’s definitely a favourite haha! It’s such a good formula, I hope you do like it xx
I also have dry skin so this sounds like it would be a great choice for me xx
LAURA | Laura Thinks About
It’s so good for dry skin! I hope you like it too xx
Love the look of this concealer, I have dry skin too and struggle with finding the right product. I’m the same, when I find one I like I tend to stick with it. I’m always worried I won’t like it and will have wasted my money! I’m definitely going to investigate this one though.
Stunning photos and lovely post.

It’s such a good one. I hope you like it too, it’s been great for me. It’s so hard to stray away from a good one. That’s the only problem when they’re so expensive. I hope you like it xx
Love your photos girl! I love this concealer and I love the packaging xx

Thank you so much! It’s such a good one xx
This is for sure one of my favourite concealers now. I picked it up at the start of the month and I can’t imagine using anything else now, the coverage is great and wakes up my eye area for sure.
