One of my favorite activities is eavesdropping. I love hearing what strangers on the subway, in restaurants, on a park bench, etc are talking about. The only types of podcasts I like are ones that make me feel like I\u2019m doing that. Take Amy Poehler\u2019s podcast, Good Hang; I love hearing her jab<\/a> with the likes of Martin Short, Tina Fey, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She very much deserved the first-ever Best Podcast Golden Globe<\/a> she just won. She graced the stage in a comfortable-looking monochromatic outfit with a radiant and smooth complexion enhanced by a slew of Merit products, the most notable of which was its Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Stick<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If there were a big Hollywood award ceremony for beauty products, Merit\u2019s all-in-one foundation-concealer stick<\/a> would sweep them. Its celebrity fanbase\u2014Martha Stewart<\/a>, Lauren Graham<\/a>, and Reese Witherspoon<\/a>\u2014grows with each passing week. If you\u2019re unfamiliar, the appeal is pretty straightforward: it\u2019s a concealer-foundation-contour stick hybrid infused with hydrating, brightening, and plumping skin care ingredients (glycerin<\/a> and sea daffodil extract<\/a>).\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

The Merit Minimalist Complexion Stick<\/a> comes in 30 shades and has light-medium coverage that can be as sheer or opaque as you\u2019d like. I can tell you from personal experience and comprehensive reading of 8,000-plus reviews that it can be applied seamlessly, whether you choose to use a brush, your fingers, or whatever device of your choosing.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

One of the thousands of five-star shoppers in their late 50s with \u201cdry, wrinkled skin with some imperfections\u201d said this \u201cgently covers\u201d them. Another said, \u201cit covers my dark circles, red areas around my nose, and fills in the ‘parentheses\u2019 around my mouth.\u201d Even if cream\/liquid formulas are usually your preference, one shopper wrote, \u201cI’m not really a fan of stick concealers since many of them tend to be very dry, but this\u2026blends like butter.\u201d\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
