Most Helpful Positive Review Amazing Concealer w/ Great Coverage ❤❤ First Impressions -
Anyway, overall I would say I really like this concealer. I try to avoid things like this because of my sensitive/oily skin type, but by far this has been living up to my expectations.
First of all, it came in a very pretty and light-colored packaging and the item itself had a very cute design. It has the design of a medium-sized pencil and the main frame is glass with black writing on the front. Its very simple, but cute.
Inspecting & Applying -
Now, when opened, it doesn't have a strong nor offending smell. Its very faint, which is a go to when you are not looking for one laced with chemicals.
As for the concealer itself, it has a slight thicker texture than other concealers I have used. Yet, with the cushion tip, it made it quite easy to apply it despite this. It smoothed out very easily and blended very evenly.
Though, at first do to its color, I mostly used it around my eyes as a test. But, it passed very efficiently at hiding my dark circles and unevenness around my eyes. So, only after then, I used it as a full coverage concealer. In which, it did even better. It hid my dark spots and my blemishes quite effectively with an overall smooth finish. So, I absolutely love the option of both coverage options.
This product's NO.10, kinda reminds me of M·A·C Pro Longwear Concealer NC45, but comparably better in feel & quality.
It overall looked amazing. It also felt good on my skin and blended well with other makeup. I didn't have any allergic reactions when using and my oily skin didn't disrupt the concealer too much. It felt very lightweight on my skin and it did live up to its claims of not caking. It stayed on evenly and lasted me quite long throughout the day.
I have yet to try out its waterproof compatiblities, but it lives up well to its others. So, by far, I haven't had any issues, but this is a wonderful concealer I was very excited to try and I am very glad I did.
I received this product complimentary for test and review.
Most Helpful Critical Review Why is this so heavy?? I received this product for free from Benefit (through an app which I am not able to log into on my cell phone or tablet so I am writing it here on my PC) as part of a contest and I couldn't wait to test it out and wear it; however I found that some of the claims such as the waterproof were not so accurate.
I was easily able to wash the concealer off without any soap and while the application wasn't cakey to begin with the longer I wore it the heavier my face began to feel and the feeling that my skin wasn't getting any air was very noticeable.
I also found that this was not as full coverage as some other brands that I have used in the past. The coverage when blended out looked streaky / splotchy on my face against the foundations I tried it with. I am pretty sure it pulled up the drug store foundation when I tested it out.
The cushion tip seemed to hold onto the product well, but when swiped barely anything came off the applicator onto my skin.
Finally the shade range seems a little limited with only 12 shades to choose from, I am a little bummed out there.
The packaging is very cute as the unicarton is definately some aesthetically pleasing colors. I found the pencil eraser tip to be very adorable on the product itself and it was very light weight all around. It's small and easily tossed into a makeup bag or kit and taken when you're on the go.
For the price I would say it's a fair deal and I know not all shades have the same formula as different undertones and shades require different mixes of ingredients. But I am disappointed in the product after having waited so eagerly to test it out and wear it for the first time.
Again I did receive this product for free in a contest from Benefit through an app.
Reviewed by 5939 customers Terrible Under Eye Concealer 1
Amanda from USA
I purchased this with the intent to wear it for under eye concealer. While the color is a great match, the formula is terrible. If you rub your eye (or a light under eye scratch) at any point you've rubbed away the concealer. It doesn't hold up well at all. If you cry at all while wearing this you've just washed away your concealer.
I am never disappointed with my benefit concealer 5

I love blending this concealer with my foundation for a beautiful flawless finish

Gigi from Hope World
I have re-purchased for the past four years 💕 she has always been good to me and she has always made me look good. This is my ride or die concealer without a doubt.
Sad it didn't work for me 3
Jmolina from Texas
I love Benefit brow products and their mascaras. This had great ratings so I ordered it. I was super sad that it didn't work for my skin. But it may work for others. Good consistency and creamy, just didn't work for me.

Nancy from AL
I love the concealer and eye brow pencil. They are very good for me.
Love! Use w/ur fav primer and setting powder 5
YAAASSS!!! QUEEEEEEN!!! from Kern County
Lasts and blends so nicely. Doesn't settle in my fine lines. Always use primer and setting. I don't think I would get the same results otherwise. Little goes a long way. Probably my favorite BENEFIT product.
On my 4th bottle 5
Jassy from Riverside
I seem to always come back to this concealer. Its medium coverage which i love bc i hate full coverage. Its perfect, not runny and not thick. I will say that the formula is very different depending on shade. I bought shade 3 and i hated it, it applied horribly. HOWEVER, shade 4 applied BEAUTIFULLY. Not sure whats up with the inconsistency but i love the shade i use and the formulation.
Great for Natural Look 5
Deanna from McKinney, TX
This concealer provides natural moisturizing coverage.
I returned the product. 1
Linda from Richmond Virginia
It dries before I can finish blending it, so it settles in my lines and wrinkles and then I have to remove it. It looks "cakey" to me. I'm disappointed.
Great coverage 5
V from Greensboro Ga
First time buying a concealer. Salesperson talked to me and reccomended. Was a great buy
Worth the try I love it 4
Erica b from Las Vegas Nv
It's not my favorite in its price range by far, but it's worth the try. It is lightweight and great shades . Brightens and doesn't leave creases.
A bit heavy 3
Jbeaner from Hampton Roads, VA
This seems to cover well, but the product is thick and messy. Hard to get just a small amount to dispense
I would buy this product again and again! 5
Dee from St. James
I really like this concealer. It does it's job so well! I liked it so much I suggested it to my mother and my daughter and they are both big fans of it now as well!!
Great concealer but brush needs work 4
LoriSR from Santa Rosa, CA
Concealer is great at hiding imperfections and the color #4 was perfect. However the sponge brush holds too much concealer so it's gloppy to put on. I used a Qtip to smooth out and remove excess.
Great! Best I've used! 5
Riz from Dallas, TX
Great coverage. Goes on smooth and stays on. Doesn't look caked.
creases on me!!!! 3
moonlightangell from Baton Rouge, La
It was not a good concealer for me. It creases every time I wear it. I like the shade match, but the creasing is a deal breaker for me! I would NOT buy again.
I would buy this again 5
Poopsie from Nh
Covers well. I love it
Wand broke 4
Liv from Boston
The velvet part of the concealer ripped in the first use. But besides that, the concealer is good and the coverage is medium, but it's buildable
Very lightweight, some coverage 2
Brittney from California
Very light weight, not heavy, I felt like I needed to reapply. If you're someone who likes creamy concealers with great coverage this isn't your ideal coverage. I would maybe use it to clean up brows, not under my eyes. Also the price for what I got personally I thought wasn't worth it :( I returned it and bought the Anastasia concealer and was much happier. But if you're someone who doesn't like heavy makeup then this is your go to
Wand broke, cheap, flimsy, couldn't fix, returned 1
Eli B from Cortland, NY
It broke before I could use it. The wand separated and got stuck in the tube. I couldn't shove it back together. I had to return it. Do not chance this happening to you. I barely used any force when I unscrewed it and pulled it out (or, well, tried to.)
aweful 1
daisy from Oklahoma
Worst concealer I have ever used.
New Go-To 5
Allison from Texas
I used to be a tried and true It Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye loyal, but I tried this out when it was on sale. Love it!! The coverage is great, but the staying power is what has me obsessed. Didn't even use setting powder (I have very oily skin), and it looked great for about 10 hours. Will repurchase!
The packaging could use some fixing since it'll be hard to get the last but out, though.
Shows fine lines 2
CathS from Kansas
Wand broke as soon as I opened it up. Didn't feel like it had much coverage. Really shows my fine lines. Pretty disappointed.
