theBalm Anne T. Dotes TimeBalm Concealer

Perfect concealer
I used mineral fusion cool concealer for years and they discontinued it. The hunt was on for a safe ingredient and a color that matched and really covered dark circles. One that didn’t settle into lines around my eyes and worked with moisturizer and didn’t cake up. After trying and returning different concealers brands I was lucky enough to find Anne T. Dotes and it is perfect. Definitely give this concealer a try! You will never use another one. Great color choices too.

Small and ineffective
For starters, there is barely any product. The package is really small and would let you maybe a month of you used it every day. That being said, it’s definitely overpriced. Creases and runs easily and is light coverage. Not very buildable and collects on your pores while failing to provide any spot coverage. Waste of money considering it’s almost $20. I’d pass if I were you.

Time Balm is the bomb! Love it!
I’m writing this in late 2016 and have been using Time Balm concealer daily for over three years. I’m 56, female and Caucasian with fair skin that freckles a bit iin the sun. I love this product and us the light shade.My skin is relatively youthful for my age probably because I’ve been a faithful sunscreen and moisturizer user for years. I’ve always used my same moisturizing sunscreen on the back of my hands that I use on my face, which I would advise as a good habit for young women to start early! That advice was given to me in my late 20s and I’m glad I listened 😊I use this concealer both under my eyes for dark circles and on my lids because I have faint scars from blepharoplasty. Time Balm conceals and is good sun protection. I’ve also dabbed it on to conceal what is either a large freckle or an “age spot” on my cheek and have noticed that area gets more sun protection than the surrounding area. That’s how I know this concealer is also doing more than my SPF 30 moisturizer to screen out the sun.On my lids, I use a skin tone shadow on top of the concealer for a natural look. At the end of the day there’s a little bit of creasing, but no more than normal. Having eyelid surgery was a big decision. My droopy lids we’re starting to interfere with my vision as I reached my late 40s and we’re causing my upper lashes to point down looking droopy as well. I looked sad and tired all the time. I’m so happy I had this issue fixed despite the faint scars, which are invisible thanks to Time Balm. I look so much more alert and happy, and now I can easily apply mascara to upturned lashes! With Time Balm no one has ever noticed any scarrin and I’m really grateful for this product.I just ordered the lighter than light shade for my 12-year-old daughter who has very dark circles under her eyes and has been borrowing my light shade. She’s blonde with very porcelain skin, so I think the lighter shade will be better for her.My only complaint about this product, is that the screw-on lid has broken and become useless long before the product runs out. This has happened on every single container of time bomb that I owned – 2-3 each year for over three years. I have a replacement lid that I took from another little plastic jar that I use when the original jar lid inevitably cracks along the screw threads. I’ve tried to be very careful not to tighten the lid too much, but every live so far has broken anyway. I wish the manufacturer would improve the container! This fantastic product deserves a durable container. The little round application sponge is great and lasts for the life of the product… for me that is usually 4 to 6 months. Photo of broken lid and the replacement lid I use that came from a little travel pill jar I bought at the drugstore are shown in the photo attached.

Amazing concealer!
I’ve been wearing this stuff for years ever since Oprah said it was in her arsenal. Ok, I love Oprah but have you even seen her without make-up? Of course you have because she is a strong enough woman to have put her make-up free face on her magazine cover many a times! Love you Oprah! Anyway, this stuff is the bomb and it covers dark or any under eye circles wonderfully. The product also touts that it can be used at night to help with wrinkles and such. Have not tried that as I use another cream for that however you will not be disappointed with the Timebalm anti-wrinkle concealer. It also holds up throughout the day without touch ups and does not settle in to the fine lines and creases!

one of my favourite concealers ever!!!! great for all day wear for senstivie skin

Ich habe jahrelang einen anderen Concealer benutzt und bin froh nun auf diesen gestoßen zu sein. Zwar schreckt der Preis erstmal ab, aber die Wirkung ist es wert. Zumal er super ergiebig ist. Es bleibt ein leichter Schimmer auf der Haut und kriecht nicht in die Fältchen. Die Farbe sollte man aber mit Bedacht wählen. Da ich nicht der käsige Typ bin, wollte ich erst eine Nuance dunkler nehmen, habe mich dann aber doch für die hellste Farbe entschieden und passt perfekt. Die Haut fühlt sich den ganzen Tag schön weich an und die Augen strahlen natürlich.
