This is my absolute HG (holy grail) concealer. I buy this stuff like I am storing for the apocalypse. I have no idea what I would do if they discontinued it. I have inherited very dark circles from my mother. This product covers them so well and so naturally that no one even knows or has a clue that I have dark circles. I get told constantly how perfect and beautiful my skin is. When someone see's me without makeup it's always the same old "oh my gosh are you feeling ill?"

This product is GREAT for under eye circles if applied correctly. It does absolutely nothing to cover blemishes. Not even a little bit. You need something much heavier to cover acne.

So this is my technique..

First I apply Revlon PhotoReady liquid foundation all over my face and under my eyes. I use Vanilla 002 it is literally a perfect match for my skin.

Then I use the wand to get a bit of the concealer onto my hand. I apply the concealer on top of the foundation. Then I sort of pat it around with my finger until it is a little "tacky". I then pat it under my eyes and over my upper lid, smoothing it into the corners. I try not to rub at all as this can sort of cram the product into little fine lines and give it uneven coverage. I let it dry for a few minutes. If you add powder to fast it will go on uneven and look cakey. After it dries for a couple of minutes I check for any "thin" spots and dab some extra concealer on if needed. I then use a sponge to apply Revlon PhotoReady Powder foundation in Fair/Light. I do this by getting some product onto the sponge and "dabbing" it over the concealer. Again, do not rub or you will mess up your base. Afterwards I use a Cover Girl Kabuki brush to apply powder all over my face to set all the makeup. I then take a clean brush blush that I save from my blush package (Covergirl Cheekers in pretty peach). I get some powder onto the brush and use it to lightly brush over the under eye area/nose/down to the cheekbone. To smooth everything out and blend it all together.

The result is perfect looking skin. Applied in a manner consistent with the one described above I have never had a problem with this concealer. It lasts all day, I have never rubbed it off, sweated it off, slept it off. It stays put until I deliberately wash my face.

All the products I mentioned can be bought right here on drugstore.com :) <3 this website!!

(Note, the brush that comes with the Revlon PhotoReady powder is no good for applying the powder, the bristles aren't stiff enough. However it makes an excellent blush or "fall down" brush. I use it to sweep away any eye shadow that falls down. Works beautifully for that)

This concealer is too light and doesn't cover anything. It's like trying to use a tinted moisturizer as a concealer. Also, the color does not come off as natural; turns salmon colored in about an hour.

Great for under eyes and blemishes. I put it on before the rest of my cover up.

It's a good concealer. It' light, stays on, easy to apply, smooth. Although the color is not very natural, it's a little different from my natural tone, despite I know it should be my exact color.
Anyway it's great for everyday use, noncomedogenic and very light.

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to share my thoughts on this product. Needless to say it is a complete waste. Pretty much no coverage and it wears of or settles into fine lines. It also accentuates dryness. I don't have ANY money to spend and so far I own very few products that are worth buying. This is no exception.

I love love love this concealer. I have terrible hereditary dark circles, but in the past when I have used a heavier concealer, it creases and wears of quickly. This one is quite watery so I usually do 2 layer to get enough coverage. It doesn't crease and lasts for a long time, and looks really natural. It doesn't even look like I'm wearing makeup! However, it's only good for under eye circles. If you want coverage for blemishes, maybe try something a bit heavier

After using liquid foundation for years (to conceal breakouts), I began using only this concealer on my chin, around my nose, and under-eye area for extra coverage. Then I'd top it with a bit of L'Oreal Mineral Foundation. And voila! A total end to the breakouts. I have used this concealer for years, but it wasn't until I did away with liquid foundation that the breakouts vanished. It feels great on, and offers great coverage. I have extremely (underscore and bold that!) fair, sensitive skin.

NOT a good concealer. It does not hide dark circles or blemishes. I would definitely never buy this product again, especially because I will never finish it because it doesnt work

I gave it 3 stars because the color matches perfectly. I don't find that it gives the coverage that it claims. I am someone who sometimes sweats and this came right off. Also I think it makes my blemishes worse. If you don't get blemishes or if you don't sweat it could work well.
