Is There Such a Thing as Perfection?

Picture this, if you will: I am strolling through Neimans in Dallas, just all sorts of happy because I had discovered the Tom Ford counter and made a large purchase, when I am suddenly accosted by a man who swore he had, in his very possession, the "best concealer in the world."

Now, I've heard a lot of claims about a lot of makeup. So of course my reaction is one of laughter - really? Is it really, really the best concealer ever? Truly?

So I settled myself into his chair and proceeded to let him work his magic.

And beauties, it was MAGIC. The fine laugh lines under my eyes? Gone. Dark circles from too much rum and coke the night before? Gone. Puffy eyes from sleeping on unfamiliar hotel pillows that I'm allergic to? Gone.

My holy grail of concealers:



Behold: Cle De Peau Concealer. I don't know what else to say about this little tube of perfection, other than it is creamy yet light, goes on like a dream, and makes my face look fantastic.

I feel somewhat irresponsible for recommending a $78 concealer to anyone, however, if you are like me, and spend a lot of time and energy trying to fix your eye problems, then this concealer might just be for you. I was assured that it would last forever, so that made me feel a bit better.

Obviously, you should give this one a try before you plop down a fortune on it. If you have a Neiman Marcus or a Nordstrom near you, you can probably try it there. But do give it a chance - I'd love to hear what others say about it.
