MAC Pro Longwear Concealer ( Rs, 1000 for 9 ml) In the world of Pro Longwear, Foundation and Concealer carry the show with creamy, medium buildable coverage right through to a flawless, natural finish. Marathon makeup to go, made from micronized pigments to promote the smoothest application and colour purity.
MAC Pro Longwear Concealer comes in a small glass bottle (almost the size of regular MAC lipstick). It has a pump dispenser attached on top that keeps the product hygienic and makes the concealer easier to use.
What I like about MAC Prolongwear Concealer
- I love love love the creamy consistency of the concealer. It is neither thick nor thin and just glides on easily. Also, it gives me ample time to work with the concealer before it finally sets.
- The concealer is quite opaque but not thick.
- Once blended out nicely, it stays on all day long without creasing or settling into the fine lines. If you have oily skin, you might want to set it with powder, for my dry skin it works just fine without any powder as well.
- A little goes a long way. You barely need a drop of concealer for both the under eyes.
- The best thing I like about this concealer is that it looks natural. It just looks like a part of your own skin.
- When mixed with a moisturiser, it makes an excellent tinted moisturiser.
- It didn’t break me out.
What I don’t like about MAC Pro Longwear Concealer :
- The pump. Hate it. You need to put in quite a good pressure to dispense the concealer and the pump always dispenses more than the required product. It always results in waste of product.
- You would have to really blend it out fast because it dries quickly and might setting in your fine lines.
- You definitely need a good amount of under eye cream or else it would be too drying for your under eyes.
- If you want a heavy concealing, I feel MAC Studio Finish Concealer would be better pick than this one because you would have to layer pro longwear concealer up and that might look cakey.
This is the swatch of the shade NC 35. I regularly wear shade NW 35.
And here are before and after photos of Pro Longwear concealer.
Moisturised bare eye.
After Pro Longwear Concealer. My under eye area looks matte and even.
Please note that I wear NW 35 concealer for under eyes but the sample was sent for the shade NC 35 ( which is the exact match to my foundation) . I have still been using this concealer for past few days because it looks amazingly natural, especially during the day time. I like using this concealer mostly for combating the redness around my nose and slight pigmentation around my mouth.
As mentioned above, pro longwear concealer also makes an amazing long wear tinted moisturiser.
I mix a pump full of pro longwear concealer with my moisturizing cream. Mix and use it all over my face.
Not only it gives a natural coverage but also keeps my skin hydrated all day long.Plus, it is long wearing.
Here I am wearing pro Longwear Concealer as a tinted moisturiser and a concealer under my eyes. I have not set it with powder so that you could see the real effect.

🙂
and one more question….wch moisturizer do u use? i use neutrogena wala….wich one do u use?
Zeeba these days I am using the Alva skin care, one that tatjana sent for me. Otherwise I use aroma magic.
aroma magic …good? better thn neutrogena..i hve neva used it.. 😐 😐 😐 😐
It’s good for dry skin. What skin type do you have?
oily n dry combination :zombiekiller: 😐 😐
That coral tshirt you’re wearing suits you
thanks. 🙂
seems like a grt concealer. how does it work on dark circles? m on a lookout for a grt concealer for under eyes.
i have combo-oily skin. will this work for me?
You MUST check it out Bee. It would work great for people with combi-oily skin becasue it is not creamy in a melting way. it sets to a beautiful matte finish. But if you have very heavy under eye circles, you might want to go with Studio finish. But really do try it at the store. It’s an excellent concealer, especially for summer time when you don’t want your makeup to melt.
that colour of ur tee realy goes well with ur skin tone..its making u glow!! :whistle: :whistle:
coming to the concealer… how long do u think will it last?
nevertheles i love the effect ..it realy does look natural!!
also u hardly need a concealer rati!!! theres not much diffrnce between ur before and after eye pics!! :yelo: :yelo: :yelo:
Thank you Neha.
Youa sking about the staying power of the concealer or how long would the bottle last?
geeee thankoo. I mostly use concealer for photos but this one I use it easily during the day time also because it looks very natural. It kinda evens out the skintone around my eyes. 🙂
as in how long would this bottle last… ?:) ?:)
This is 9 ml product. Mac studio finish concealer, which is 7ml product is still not over after almost 10 months of regular usage. 😀 😀
Minimum 6-7 months, if you use it only for concealer. For me I think this would finish up within 4-5 months since I am loving using it as a TM as well.:)
oh thats not bad then !! 🙂
whats TM? Sorry, im new and have seen TM a lot. *embarassed*
i am eyeing mac foundationa nd concealer next! 😛 u started using those sigma brushes!! :spank:
yeah, washed and started using. The foundation brush of this set is much much more improved than the previous set. It’s soft like a teddy bear. :toothygrin:
oh really!!! *runs and write down this new set in the list* :happydance:
i luuuuubbbb teddybears..so i will luuuubbbb this brush too! :joker: i dream of owning a ginormous teddybear someday in my life! 😀
Sireesha ,
I personally feel that the quality of their foundation brush has improved . if you remem my review on Sigma face brushes I mentioned that their foundation brush pricks. This one is so amazingly soft and it’s a little fatter also than the older one.
geeeee… I hope you train your teddy well. :tremble:
Pretttty prettyyy …and I didn’t see the purple brush!!!! :smug: :smug: :smug:
:yelo: :yelo: :yelo:
I ignoring you…you saw cute movie :smug:
It such an awesome movie, Radhika. You MUST MUST MUST watch it. you’ll love it. And there is this horse in the movie, its expressions kept reminding me of you. D:
Did you just say I have a face like a horse 😐 😐 :pissedoff: :pissedoff: :violinbash: :violinbash: :spank: :spank: :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali:
OH goooddd!!! He was giving soooper cute naughty expressions and his “expressions” were reminding me of you. :violinbash: :violinbash:
err one more question whats this whole deal of nc and nw? if it means cool and warm; is cool suppose to be applied on warm and warm one on cool skin tone? or warm on warm and cool on cool??
im sorry if im confusing 😛 :silly:
NC has more yellow undertone. NW has more peachy undertone. The peachy undertone cuts the blue / green undertone that most people get under their eyes. Sometimes if a concealer with yellow undertone is used under the eyes it might look ashy.
I use a NC shade for foundation but I prefer NW shade for under eyes .
ohhh thankoos!! 😀
I like the idea of using concealer both ways…..never thought of that! I’ll try that tomorrow with my moisturizer + concealer and use it on T-zone and chin area….Thanks for the tip!
Most welcome. :))
he he he..you looking so cuuutee!! :-* :-* :-* :-* Very nice review Rati!! 😀 😀

:-* :-* looking very natural 🙂
Thankoo Priya :-*
What lipstick are you wearing? It looks lovely :yes: .Cute top :waytogo: . Which concealer do you think is better the longwear pro or the studio finish?
btw, i hope you got my email. 🙂
Aye Dee, It’s MAC Cosmo lipstick. :)) I am liking both the concealers but pro longwear gives a medium coverage while studio finish gives a full coverage. Studio finish would conceal just everything. Pro longwear looks more natural , especially during day time.
pretty…looks nice..
:thanks:
you have a warm tone!! That coral top is suiting you soooo much :woot: :woot:
Are you wearing bow earrings? I have got the same from Aldo :yahoo:
acha on a serious note i have super black-greenish dark circles. I was thinking to invest in a mac concealer. which one you think will work best for me? I have combination skin.
Yeah Insiya, those are bow earrings. i got them from F21. :))
In that case I suggest you go for studio finish. I havent come across a concealer that is as opaque as studio finish.Some people find it a little thick so do test it thoroughly before purchasing. :))
i hv the same sweater..same color :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake: :handshake:
n ur lippie shade is so natural..which one? :whistle: :whistle:
:handshake: It’s MAC Cosmo Lipstick 🙂
yaar..you hardly have dark circles…lucky u :idk:
But that’s a good thing no, Naira. :))
You look so natural…I love how the concealer works on you.
Lovely lip shade too 🙂 Which one?
You know Monika, I think you guys love MAC Cosmo lipstick on me. I think it’s time you check it out. :-*
I wore the same look for a movie yesterday. :))
What an idea! mixing concealer with moisturizer.. :waytogo:
You know this pump always dispenses more product than required and I was hating the idea of wasting the product so I started using it this way and it turned out to be great. It give that nice sheer to medium coverage that is ideal for day time. 🙂 You also try it out. Might work for you. :))
i never use a concear itself!! :yelo:
If you dont need to, you dont have to. :-*
Rati you have no dark circles at all! You under eye skin looks so nice healthy and moisturized in the first pic!! What do u use? I don’t have dark circles exactly but the skin under my eye is very thin so the veins are a visible which gives a very dark circly look 🙁 :violinbash:
Ankita these days I am using Alva under eye cream but otherwise I use aroma magic under eye cream. It works great for me.
Juts use a thin concealer like select moisture cover or pro longwear and that would even out the skintone of your under eye area without giving that heavy cakey look. 🙂
Ok. Thanks Rati. I’m gonna try these when I go to MAC next. Any idea how much the select moisture cover costs?
Rs 1050 https://makeupandbeauty.com/mac-concealer-review-select-moisture-cover/ 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
rati… even without the concealer ur eyes look pretty 🙂 and those brushes are really :woot: :woot:
Thank you, Ramya. The brush are really worth investing. totally loving them. 🙂
How much does it cost?i mean MAC pro long wear concealer?
