Mac Pro Longwear Concealer Review

I picked up 2 different shades of MAC's Pro Longwear Concealer in NC35 and NW25. I've tried both shades as an undereye concealer after I put on my foundation. It has a very opaque coverage but not thick. I hate that its a pump. You can't really control how much comes out. One pump is just way too much. Half a pump is still a lot but enough. I apply it with a flat small paddle foundation brush. Specifically the Sonia Kashuk one. I dont recommend using your fingers because I've tried spreading it on my skin and then dabbing it into place but it just lifts the concealer back up  and I have wierd looking patches so a brush for me is quite ideal. It dries very fast so the less you put on the better it looks. The more you do it just looks cakey. I definitely reccomend this for Professional and everyday use for a flawless look.

Designer Skin Black and Xotic Xplosion

Lotion: Designer Skin Black
Smell: Smells like a really good Perfume mmmmmm if there was a perfume that smelled like this i would totally get it!
Type of lotion:  20x Bronzer
Bed Type: 20 min orignal bed

First off what I usually look for in tanning lotions is that they better smell amazing! And this was just about amazing! I could lather my self in this all day ahaha. It gave me a pretty even tan and I didnt burn. For a luxurious tanning experience I think this would be great for you
 
 
 
Lotion: Xotic Xplosion Hot Thing
Smell: Not liking the smell that much but atleast its not very potent
Type of lotion: Oil
Bed Type: 12 min high powered bed with new light bulbs. The full 12
 
This is a tanninng oil that goes on like a lotion. It's not oily at all. It feels like a liquid lotion.  The smell could be better. I believe its a tingler too. My butt was so burnt and tingling for like 15 mins after I got out of the bed. I didn't put it on my face because I was scared Id come out with a really red itchy face. All in all I didn't mind the lotion. I would use it again if I want a quick and fast tan. I'm just not a fan of it being a liquid though.
