This is one post in a 6-post series about replacing my drugstore makeup brands with less toxic products, as rated by the Environmental Working Group’s Skin Deep Database, which is an awesome free resource for researching your own beauty products and common ingredients.

The High-Level Comparison

The Details

This might sound counter-intuitive, but many of the concealer crayon products I’ve tried have an almost waxy texture. While it can feel kind of gross to apply, I do like that the waxy finish tends to give a strong hold that doesn’t wear off quickly.

The L’Oreal True Match Concealer Crayon is rated a 4 on the EWG hazard scale, while the Mineral Fusion Concealer Duo is EWG verified to avoid ingredients of concern and offer full transparency about what the product contains.

The Mineral Fusion Concealer Duo doesn’t hold quite as well as the L’Oreal True Match Concealer Crayon, but with either one I typically needed to re-apply at least mid-day. The Mineral Fusion Concealer Duo has the added advantage of the two-tone palette, which is great for blending to get an exact match. I find that different areas of my face get different sun exposure so I need a darker concealer on my chin, nose, and cheek bones, but lighter on my temples and forehead.

The Conclusion

The Mineral Fusion Concealer Duo has worked well for me as a replacement for concealer crayon products. I’m open to trying other types of natural concealers, but probably won’t actively hunt for them since I like this one.
