Dua Lipa impressed fans with her full coverage make-up look that stayed put during a rain-soaked performance at Anfield Stadium, and we’ve found the exact heavy duty concealer she used
Dua Lipa, currently on her Radical Optimism Tour, has proved she’s not just a popstar, but also a beauty icon. After delivering a flawless performance in the pouring rain, without a single smudge or patch in sight, fans were left wondering what exactly was used to achieve her full coverage look.
And Dua’s make-up artist Katie Jane Hughes has let us in on the exact product that held up through a torrential British downpour. While the crowd was drenched, Dua Lipa’s glam remained perfectly in tact and you’ll be shocked to find out, it’s not down to a setting spray, but the Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Concealer.
In fact, no setting spray was used at all. Instead, this heavy duty YSL concealer that boasts up to 16 hours of coverage stole the show. Alongside the extensive coverage, this velvet-matte concealer camouflages dark circles, while smoothing out the skin, resulting in an instantly refreshed and brighter complexion

The rich pigment combined with the lighweight formula means you can achieve a seriously full-coverage look (that doesn’t budge in the heat or rain!), without looking too heavy or cakey.
And the creamy consistency makes this so easy to blend out whether you’re using a sponge, brush or your fingers.
After Dua’s rain-soaked performance went viral on TikTok, fans were quick to flood Katie Jane Hughes’ comments begging for the details on the make-up look. One fan wrote: “Keep seeing posts of her concert and zooming in on her make-up and thinking how does it stay all night”, and a second added: ” pleeeease give us a tutorial on her stage makeup and how you get it to stay all night!!! Love from a girl sick of sweaty eye creases xx”.
While a third asked: “What’s the fixing spray?”, to which Katie confirmed not setting spray was used, it was all down to the YSL concealer, combined with YSL powder top-ups during costume changes.
If you’re after more full-coverage but lightweight concealers, we also love the Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place 24-Hour Concealer, priced at £29.50, and the Hourglass Vanish™ Airbrush Concealer, priced at £36.
