Pat McGrath Labs’ Sublime Perfection Concealer.

Ross wore the concealer to the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscars party, as revealed by her makeup artist Molly Greenwald—and needless to say, it added the perfect glow to complete her jaw-dropping red-carpet look. Sporting a black velvet Balmain jumpsuit layered with a white cropped shawl and a matching white hat, Ross made sure to show off an especially radiant complexion.

So what’s so special about the product behind Ross’s picture-perfect glow? The Sublime Perfection Concealer, from the brand founded by iconic celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath, offers full coverage with a radiant matte finish to brighten under the eye and hide blemishes. Available in a total of 36 different shades (Ross herself used the shades M15, MD22, and MD27 for her Vanity Fair Oscars look), the creamy, lightweight formula is infused with vita-serum complex, which hydrates skin and helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, as well as optically diffusing pigments that give skin a flawless soft-focus effect.

Unsurprisingly, the concealer has racked up hundreds of five-star ratings—in fact, multiple reviewers swear that it’s “hands down the best concealer [they’ve] ever tried.”

“I have no words. I’ve been wearing makeup for over 15 years and this is the first time (seriously) that I have nothing I would change about a concealer,” raves one Sephora shopper. “It is so creamy, so soft and so easy to blend. It has great coverage but it’s not super heavy...I usually set it with the Pat McGrath setting powder and it seriously lasts ALL day without creasing or getting too oily or cakey.”

Reviewers especially love the creamy consistency and natural-looking finish of the formula, as well as the easy-to-use sponge tip applicator, which helps to give precise coverage when blending onto the skin. “I have very dark circles and this concealer is like a miracle worker,” writes another Sephora customer. “It does not crease, has a beautiful finish, and has heavy coverage without looking cakey.”
