When Victoria Beckham decided to add skin care to her namesake beauty brand, there was only one man that she could imagine collaborating with. And no, it wasn’t her husband David Beckham, who shared his morning routine on the beauty founder’s Instagram earlier this year. Rather, it was Augustinus Bader, founder of the eponymous, celebrity-favorite company. After launching moisturizer and serum together, the two have joined forces yet again. This time, Bader and Beckham have created a brand-new makeup product: the Concealer Pen. The skin-friendly formula fuses high-performance skin care and luxury makeup.
Victoria Beckham Beauty The Concealer Pen with TFC8
“I’ve been a fan of the click pen concealer for a long, long time,” Beckham tells ELLE. “It’s something that is my go-to every single day of the week, but I never found a formula that satisfied me. I had never found a color that worked perfectly on my skin, and only in my dreams did I ever dream that there could ever be the perfect click pen concealer that treated as well as covered. I have been fortunate enough to be testing this for quite some time now, and I have noticed a big difference in my skin. I genuinely have. I’m completely obsessed with it.”
Like all of Augustinus Bader’s products, the new concealer is made with the brand’s Trigger Factor Complex, TFC8, as well as a blend of lipids, vitamins, and peptides that combat signs of aging and skin damage. This formula wasn’t made to just to hide skin imperfections, but to actively treat dry, mature skin. Other ingredients like squalane, polyglutamic acid, and acetyl hexapeptide work together to attract and lock in moisture for long-lasting hydration and all day coverage.
“I’ve noticed that I have to use less product under my eyes since I’ve been using our product, which is proof to me that it genuinely is working,” Beckham says in a conversation with Bader. “I’m definitely not sleeping more, so I know that it’s down to your TFC8.” Based on a clinical study of women aged 30–65 conducted by the brand, the formula was shown to improve signs of hyperpigmentation, reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffy under eyes.
The concealer comes in 16 flexible shades made for a range of undertones and delivers light to medium buildable coverage. The soft luminous finish is meant to create a skin-like result, providing a natural, radiant base for the rest of your makeup look.
Beckham’s approach to creating this product has been hands-on, even when it comes to the packaging. Beckham likes to paint on her makeup, so she opted for an easy-to-use click pen design that allows for precise application. “I like how the product stays fresh,” she says. “It really just made the most sense to have a click pen. I pour over all of those details.” The sleek design makes this the product ideal for on-the-go touch-ups. Literally, all it takes is the click of a button.
