Physicians formula super BB concealer review.

Good morning ladies!!
I feel guilty about buying a new concealer when I already had one in good conditions...well, if you're a makeup addict-lover-obsessed like me, then you'd understand me though. I just saw this concealer and I knew I had to have it, this is such a good brand and total cruelty free; I chose the shade light/medium.

The first time I used it, this is how the brush fills up with product:

After using if for a week (making 3 clicks a day) the product begins
 to accumulate inside the container, just like the almay wakeup concealer did.

Super BB concealer Ingredients list.
The loving things about this BB concealer:
1. The amount of product is enough for me and the price it's ok, not to expensive not to cheap, you're giving about $12 for 4g of product. Believe me, 4g it's a lot...I have the revlon photoready concealer which has 3.2g and I've been using it for about half a year and it's still full, I don't imagine how long this BB concealer would last me.

2. It's not only a concealer for the under-eye area, due to it has spf30, it can be used as a color-cream sunblock (like the BB cream) for your face or to hide minimal imperfections, like freckles or small acne scars. If you're going to the beach or having a sun bath then use this concealer along a sunscreen with SPF15 or 30 to avoid mayor sunburns, specially if you're pale-light skin.

3. It's very creamy and blendable, the texture is between liquid and creamy and it's not oily at all.

4. It's waterproof...really! I apply some in my forearm to show you guys the colour of the shade (you'll see the pictures below) and I forgot to take it off, at the end of the day, it didn't came off with water! neither soap, I had to remove it with...well yes, makeup remover lol, but finally it came off easily, so if you're going to the beach (or you love being a mermaid) this is a perfect makeup for you, it has the right amount of  SPFand it doesn't run away with salty water!

5. I like the tube :) it's cute

6. The coverage: it's good enough to hide mild/moderate undereye circles and acne scars or any discolourations on your skin; It's very very pigmented and you can build up the colour without looking cakey-face or like an umpa lumpa.

What I HATE:
1. the shade...it only comes in two shades: light/medium and medium/deep, so poor variety.
 I think I'm a light shade, not to white but still not tanned skin, and I chose the shade light/medium; I thought It was going to look very dark on my skin, but for my surprise it did match my skin tone!
If you're a bit darker than me, this concealer might work as a highlighter tool for your under eye area. If you're even lighter than me, avoid this concealer! there are more brands with more shades.

2. The smell...it smells weird, like corn or something related with food, I guess is the sunscreen.

3. The same problem with the almay wakeup concealer...product gets stuck in the tube once you click to pump the concealer, the product gets stuck below the applicator.
The brush is kind of useless thing, it's always better to blend with your fingers or an elf concealer brush, or whatever brush you like.

SWATCHES!!

Would I buy it again? ONLY IF...there would be a lighter shade, because I do love the formula and the packaging! Leave comments pleaseeeeee
