My Experience:
Makeup Revolution Ultra Cover & Conceal Palette comes in the same packaging as their Ultra Blush Palette I reviewed some time back. A shiny and sturdy palette encased in a matte black cardboard box. The back of the box shows the colors within the palette. 
Inside the palette there is a huge mirror with 8 different concealers meant for light to medium skin tones. There is a good variation of colors for medium skin tones. Nothing for those with too light or too dark skin but is perfect for our Asian skin. The palette is best for the variations in your skin tone throughout the year. You can also mix together different shades to get your perfect color. The shade I am using now a days is the last one in top row. Though I will have to move to a lighter shade in a few months.The concealer stays on me for up to 6 hours without creasing. 
The concealers give a medium coverage but you can try and build it up. It could get cakey though, so you have to be careful. The trick is to apply thin layers and blend them in properly. Still, my opinion would be to not go for this palette if your have very dark under eye circles and need heavy coverage. For our average Asian skin, the shades in the palette can be used for concealing and highlighting. None of the shades is dark enough to contour with. 
Even in winters when all of my other cream concealers have gone stiff all of these 8 are very creamy and easy to apply. So much so that I wonder how would they fare in summer. Though its going to be months before I know the definite answer, I can safely assume, they would get greasy and setting with powder would be must. Despite the creamy texture, the concealers cling to dry patches mercilessly. 
The light and creamy texture makes this palette a very good lip concealer. It is easy to apply because of the creamy texture and does not feel cakey on lips. You just have to make sure that your lips are not dry and flaky before you apply it.
All in all, the palette is a good investment if you don't need much under eye coverage and want to experiment with different shades.

Pros:
  • Good range of shades.
  • Medium and buildable coverage.
  • Lasts for up to 6 hours without creasing. 
  • Can also be used to highlight.
  • Very creamy formula.
  • Can be used as a lip concealer.
  • Sturdy packaging.
  • Comes with a mirror.
  • Inexpensive.
Cons:
  • Does not include any corrector.
  • May appear cakey upon building.
  • Creamy consistency might make oily.
Price & Availability: Makeup Revolution Ultra Cover and Conceal can be bought from their website for £6. In Pakistan, you can buy these online from just4girls.pk and Daraz for PKR 1250. Visit Makeup Revolution International and Makeup Revolution Pakistan's facebook page for more information.
My Rating: 3.75/5

    1. If you can contour with it, depends on your skin tone. As per my experience the palette can not be used to contour my MAC NC30.
      Look for swatches of the dark variant online. That might work....

  4. I contemplated getting this a few days ago, but I decided to skip it because I did read a review where it was said that it does get greasy! After reading your opinions and the fact that it would cling to dry patches, I am glad I didn't buy this! xx
