A concealer with a youth-boosting twist

Most days, my makeup routine consists of concealer under my eyes and around my nose, a light dusting of bronzer, a dab of cream blush and mascara. Even though I’m not usually going anywhere (and if I do it’s to tennis, which is a sunscreen-only event) the two to three minutes it takes to spruce up my face is well worth it. It sends a subtle message to the family that I haven’t completely thrown in the towel—and it prevents me from fulling fixating on all of the work I need to have done once things get back to normal.

I’m all about loading up on the skincare beneath this ultra-light veil of makeup, so any cosmetic product that works double duty as a skin-improving treatment is more than welcome to join the party—and I’d be happy to extend an invitation to PUR’s new 4-in-1 Sculpting Concealer. Beyond the medium-to-full coverage, you get hydrating and line-plumping hyaluronic acid, caffeine to fight puffiness and much-needed antioxidants (such as green tea, turmeric and more) plus encapsulated retinol to help smooth and refine your skin over the course of the day.

Just when I thought my minimal makeup approach was pretty good, I realize it could be better with products that blend cosmetic and skincare benefits—and this clean concealer has been added to my to-try list!
