Fiote - Concealer Gel Series

I picked this up specifically to test the stamping quality and it did not disappoint! It works instantly and flawlessly when stamping, with zero modifications needed. Even fine lines pick up crystal clear. Being a no wipe it also chromes over perfectly! I'll be getting the black and white as well and I really hope that they come out with a primary colored set to mix with. This gel was such a joy to use and I can't wait to try it out as a patting gel for ombres! Just keep in mind that you never want wet gel product coming in contact with the skin, so use accordingly.

I stamped with some pat art gels once before and I had to use a separate silicone tool to apply the gel to my stamping plate. I loved that this product had a spatula instead of a brush so no additional tool was needed. The black was thick and super opaque, which made it perfect for stamping and line art.

I really hate not being able to give one of my favorite brands, Fiote, a better rating than a 2, but I struggled to give this product anything more. I dont know what they were thinking with this collection and the colors are confusing at best. Here is why I struggled on 2 stars;
First, this product is not like a one coat gel polish that is eluded to on the packaging. I read all the materials so to have a correct expectation. Its very very thick, so much so that I had to stop and double check to make sure this was not a facial concealer. Seriously. Its so thick and there was no application tip brush. Instead, the tip is a silicone type applicator. This means if you want a smooth result you will need a separate brush and even then you will need advanced skills to get it smooth like other gel products. I had to use alcohol on my brush, for dilution and even then I did not get a totally smooth result. Fiote needs to go back to the drawing board with this one.
