It is very rare that I will splurge out on a new concealer because I seem to have everything I need from the Collection lasting perfection concealer. But I was feeling randomly adventurous last time I went into Boots (in my defence of course) so I ended up splurging out on the Soap & Glory Kick Ass Concealer. Soap & Glory have never let me down when it comes to their makeup range, everything I have ever received has been amazing so this concealer intrigued me a lot - the whole idea of a 3 step system to conceal your face got my little beauty brain curious!
This compact contains an eye brightening concealer, face concealer and a sealing powder that are labelled from step 1 to 3. I am yet to use the sealing powder because I am not entirely sure whether my face needs these extra layers of makeup - I use powder to set my makeup anyways. But, I do use the eye brightening and face concealer regularly, therefore, I am able to give you curious readers my personal opinion on those!
I'll be honest when I first applied both of these products I felt as though they were a little thickening on my skin and the colour didn't seem to match up even though I picked up the lightest shade. But once blended in with my Real Techniques setting brush the shade matched into my skin which is odd.
I would say this has medium coverage as it is great for covering those dreadful under the eye dark circles I tend to get after a long late night of uni work which is great as I now don't look like a zombie the next morning. I think the eye brightening concealer does wonders for brightening under my eyes as well as making them look a lot more highlighted and healthy.
Another thing we all dread from time to time is any imperfections: spots, scars, redness etc! Yes, those dreading areas can sometimes be a challenge to cover especially the 'newly' spots. Like I mentioned before the Collection concealer covered every imperfection for me and from what I've used of this so far I believe it does exactly the same. It is just a little bit more playful as it isn't in a tube applicator. But the results are long-lasting and cover any imperfection really well.
So far I have ditched my Collection concealer and I have found myself a new, trustworthy buddy that helps cover any imperfections! So once again Soap & Glory have not let me down with their makeup.
The overall answer does this concealer kick ass? yes.

Oh - I have never invested in any sop and glory products but I have heard plenty of good things about them. The product sounds great and I am in need of a new concealer. One question - what is the product like with regards to creasing? Great post.

It surprises me that not many people have I really rate them too. Creasing I would say it doesn't crease spots or anything but if you have dry eyes already it can crease so maybe apply eye cream before hand :)

Definitely sounds like a good concealer, i need to pick this up asap!

I love this product too although I do find it creases when I apply a little too much. I've been using it religiously for about a year now. Their Trick and Treatment concealer (I think that's what it's called) is quite good too.

I agree it has creased under my eyes a few times if I don't apply eye cream. ooo I have never heard of this!

The eye brightening concealer sounds great. Collection concealer doesn't really cover up my dark circle. Maybe I should give this one a chance!

Ohh I'm not sure I liked this concealer when I tried it! I found it way too creamy, but I will be honest and say I didn't use the setting powder like I should have, but do powder my face in general everyday. I'm fussy with concealer though - I'm not a fan of the Collection one either because I think it's too drying! Haha :)
