RMS Beauty ranks among my favorite safe makeup brands. Its vibe is more luxury beauty counter than health food store. And I feel fancy when I use their effective products. For me, the cornerstone RMS product is the Un Cover-up. I’ve yet to find a nontoxic and natural concealer that provides as much pigmentation without drying out my skin. Read on for my full RMS Beauty Un Cover-up review:
Why I Decided to Try It
I need concealer for my under-eye circles, an area that tends to be tight and dry for me. RMS Un Cover-up is made with coconut oil and promises to hydrate.
First Impression
The quantity you get is pretty small. But, I could tell the product was dense. I love the feel of the glass container.
Ease of Use
The concealer works well with a concealer brush and blends well with your fingers. The pot also makes it easy to get every last bit of the product, as opposed to a messy tube.
Effectiveness
This natural concealer subtly hides my imperfections and acts as a primer for my eye makeup. While it’s not as pigmented as my FACE Stockholm Picture Perfect Foundation (which is also safe), I feel like it brightens my under-eye area and immediately makes me feel more awake.
The best part? RMS’s hydrating claims are not exaggerated. The Un Cover-up goes on smoothly and provides a creamy coverage. Plus, you can build it up for more.
On its own, the Un Cover-up doesn’t stay put as much as I would like. But I’ve solved that by setting it with RMS Un Powder. Having a hydrating concealer under the powder prevents my skin from drying out and leaves me with a nice matte finish. I also wait for my vitamin C serum and sweet almond oil moisturizer to completely penetrate before applying it, which makes everything stick better. Usually, I will do my skincare routine, go have breakfast, and then apply my makeup. Otherwise, the Un Cover-up has almost too much moisturizing power.

My Conclusion
This is a solid natural concealer. While I wish it would provide more coverage, I like the lightweight natural feeling that easily blends with my skin. When I simply want to brighten my face and look a little more awake, all I need is a little RMS Beauty Un Cover-up. Hopefully the brand will also add more shades soon, since the current offering is limited and not as inclusive as it should be.
