Boots shoppers praise 'life changing' £12 concealer that's 'better than NARS'

Boots shoppers have been praising a £12 concealer they say is 'better than NARS' - which normally costs a whopping £21.

The beauty retailer is known for stocking a mixture of luxury products as well as more affordable brands. This time, it was a HNB Cosmetics concealer that received glowing reviews from shoppers.

With a 4.7 out of 5 rating from shoppers online, the HNB Cosmetics Soft Focus Airbrush Concealer 16ml has been described as 'life changing' by shoppers. A variety of different shades are available, though Boots fans are advising to 'do your research' first before picking your shade.

To apply, use the doe foot applicator to brighten the undereye area and areas that you need to conceal. Boots fans have been praising the 'high coverage' product as seen in a number of reviews online.

Among the reviews, one shopper said: "I bought this about a month ago and it’s changed the game for me! I’d say it’s full coverage and sits perfectly on my skin all day with minimal creases. I have dry skin but an oily t zone and it works great on both areas, would 100% recommend!!"

A second shopper said: "Converge on this product is insane, only need a very small amount for it to go a long way!"

A third review read: "I have bought another one. I bought this on Tammi recommendation from HNB’s site and I really like it. The coverage is ace. This colour I bought the skin tone shade and other is a brightening shade. Would recommend, would buy again."

A fourth shopper said: "Super nice shade for pale skin tones, also like to use when I have tan on to brighten the under eye. Also blends nicely into other products."

Not all shoppers were convinced though, with some claiming the product is 'tacky'. This was also reflected in some reviews online.

One negative review read: "Great coverage but under the eyes oooh no! Made mine look dry, enhanced fine lines, coverage is amazing and will use it on the rest of my face but not for under eyes."

A second shopper said: "Very thick and tacky feeling. It clinges to my pores, fine lines and wrinkles. This also transfers onto everything."

Shoppers can purchase the £12 concealer here. Alternative concealers include the Collection 'Lasting Perfection Concealer' priced at £4.49.
