Hola!
Behold....my very first Bobbi Brown purchase!!!
I've always felt intimidated with the idea of going to a high-end shop.Its totally out of my comfort zone.Even cosmetics has no exception.But that particular day,i was strolling in Mid Valley when i saw the Bobbi Brown shop and decided to ask about their famous corrector.Which also lead to my very first time having a makeover at their counter. :D
The MUA naturally applied this peach shade corrector and i was totally mind blown.My undereyes circle was gone!
'It's like magic right?' said the MUA with her wide smile.
I couldn't agree more.
Product Advertorial
A wakeup call for tired eyes. Corrector is pink- or peach-based to neutralize under-eye darkness and is designed to be used before Creamy Concealer. New and improved formula is long-wearing and brightens dark circles with quick, just-right coverage that's easy to blend and won't crease. And since great makeup starts with healthy skin, Corrector is infused with skin conditioners to protect the delicate under-eye area. Featured in Lucky Magazine (July 2011).

It comes in 16 shades which means it has a variety to choose from whether you are pale or dark skinned person.What i love the most is the 'skin conditioner' claim. :)
Design
It comes in a compact type case.The design is simple and professional with the usage of monochromatic colour.Very western-ish i must say.
Manufactured year - April 2012
Weight - 1.4 g
The corrector look so much darker than my actual skin tone in the pan.I was doubtful when the MUA picked up this shade.But once it infused in my skin/swatched,it looks much softer and it seems.
Natural lighting
Since im fair,the MUA used the creamy concealer in shade Natural to finish off my small makeover.I didn't purchase it though,so expensive! T__T
Price-wise
This is one hell of a price,98 MYR for a 1.4 g product.That's definitely a new record for me.However i found out that a single swatch is enough to cover my dark circles as its really pigmented and creamy.So this thing might last for a while.
Who Might Like This?
People who wish to banish their underyes circle.
People with oily skin.Because i have oily skin and eventhough this corrector is cream type,it does not crease or whatsoever on my skin provided that i set it with powder.
People who can afford it kekeke.
Final Thought
This is my go to product nowadays.It effectively banish my dark circles and it lasts the whole day,without budging :O Careful though,a single swatch is enough to cover the dark circles (as in my case).This will definitely crease and settles to the eyes fine lines if you apply too much.It has no distinctive scent and petrolatum based.
Petrolatum is a product of crude oil distillation.It actually has a low value compared to the natural gas or the oil itself.But yes,it is used in the cosmetics industry alot.Trust me i know,im a chemistry student :P
