Miss Sporty So Clear Coverstick Concealer Review

Hello everybody, 
I've been off for a few days revising hard - not something that I like to do at all but something that is necessary at this time of year as mocks are approaching! Luckily, my school have taken mercy on us and given us two weeks study leave which I don't think any other school in the area gets!

I've never really tried any Miss Sporty products before however when buying makeup presents for friends, I've always been drawn to this brand because as bad as it sounds it is incredibly cheap!
I was looking out for a new concealer and I've heard from everyone how good Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer is but unfortunately Superdrug were out of stock so instead I went for the Miss Sporty Coverstick. 

At first, I was a little confused on the best way to apply it but after some initial trial and error I opted for just putting it on then blending with a small No7 brush. I'll start with the positives and those are that it is amazing at concealing patches of redness/ uneven skin tone. I have quite blotchy skin but I don't want to wear a heavy foundation so this is great. It is also pretty good at concealing any spots as well but I do find that I have to use a few layers as well as a powder to get a good enough coverage. Along with this, it has a nice, fresh smell and it is a bargain at only £1.99.


There are a few drawbacks; as I mentioned earlier, it isn't the heaviest of coverage so if you are looking for something heavy then this isn't for you. It is also terrible at concealing under eye bags - I put it on my bags and wonder where all the concealer has gone because it looks just the same!
Overall, I was fairly pleased with the concealer for some uses but I don't think I will be repurchasing in the future and it certainly isn't for you if you need something more heavy coverage. 
At a price like £1.99, I'm left questioning 'Do you get what you pay for?'.

I have other concealers but as of yet I haven't found one I am really happy with. I think I will get the Collection concealer as all I have heard about it are rave reviews. I hope you found my review helpful and if you have any suggestions of better concealers or future posts please leave a comment below!
