I'm older and have really dark, zombie circles around my entire eyes. I don't wear much make up-just foundation, concealer, powder and mascara, so I like a natural look. I've tried hundreds of brands. For the price, this one is pretty darn good. I buy #30 and #60 so that I can customized the color throughout the year, plus they don't really have my shade. I love that it goes on smoothly and isn't dry or cakey. If you let it sit for a minute or so *before* gently blending, you get better coverage. I always set with loose powder and a setting spray-this way it doesn't settle into creases and wrinkles :) I also have very sensitive skin and have never had the slightest bit of irritation, like I've had with other products.
I don't usually do reviews but I had to! This concealer has burned the skin under my eyes twice! I didn't know what caused it the first time but after using it again my under eyes swell and started peeling again. This is 3-4 hrs of applying it. I felt a tingling when applying it but I didn't think anything of it. But now it makes sense! I'm not sure if I'm just having an allergic reaction or it's just the product itself. I'm not sensitive to makeup or any skin care products. I own every makeup under the moon and I've never experienced anything like this. I've used the cheapest to the most expensive makeup and never had a reaction like this. If you purchase this product and experience tingling when apply I would say just wipe it off and do not use it again! It feels like rug burn under my eyes!

I have never had an issue with sensitive skin but as soon as I put this one my eyes and skin burned so bad. Product was heavily fragrances but not with a good smell, it smelled very chemical-y. Used the tiniest dot and still got creasing which I've not had a problem with before because I have pretty smooth under eyes. Used a few times in case I was doing something wrong but got the same result each time.

Works so well, great coverage, and it really blurs the purple bags under my eyes and helps brighten my face! I would for sure buy this again, and it comes at such a great price for such an amazing product! Anyone and everyone should check this product out!!

Great from Paducah
This is really great concealer, it has great coverage, but I guess I'm allergic to it as it burns my face when I put it on.

I love this concealer so mucho it covers and stays on

I bought this for contouring. A little goes a long way. If you apply too much it will be hard to blend. You must blend quickly if not it will set in your pores. It is durable though.

I tried this since I needed something for work on a budget and love it. I paired it with the essence hydrating foundation and it covered all. I have rosacea and it covered my redness nicely.

I've used so many concealers over the years-some too thin, some too cakey. I'm in my 50s, have really, really dark cirlces and this is great. I moisturize first and the concealer glides on easily. Then a set with the tiniest floof of powder on a small brush. The color choices are poor-either 3 very light pinkish shades or 3 very dark gold shades. I buy #30 and #60 and add a few dots of each and blend. This works well as my skin color changes a bit in summer. It is buildable, so if it seems to thin, you can let it set for a minute and add a bit more. And boy, for the price, you can't beat it! Also love their mascara and fixative.

Used shade golden toffee on a really dark purple hickey on my neck. It covered it right up. I used my fingers to blend it out.

First off, awful shade range. Just awful. I got a shade that seemed like a good match but the undertone was not it , but I had no other option. It also has a smell that I do not like. Fragrance in my concealer? It is Matt and good coverage. I haven't tested the wear yet but I hope it's good. I probably won't purchase this again but I'll use it up.

Fragrance is very strong—do not recommend this concealer

It's creamy but doesn't blend well with both a brush or a beauty blender. Shades are a bit off. Don't recommend this.
SaintMarnie from Orlando, FL
I tested this on my tattoo, it will provide coverage. I suggest moisturizer first. For full coverage: apply *slightly* more than you think 110%, blend with a foundation brush, apply setting powder for full coverage concealer application. For airbrush appearance: apply moisturizer, then setting powder, then normal amount of product, blend with blender sponge.
disappointed from brighton
i LOVE your products usually but this concealer is not not for everyone. For me, this concealer is impossible to blend even with setting spray. The only way i can apply it is by mixing a little pigment into my normal concealer and even then the application looks cakey, uneven, dry, and just ends up looking like skin issues.
Kristine M. from Minneapolis
I'm still giving this 5 stars because I haven't found any quality waterproof concealer for this price. As others have said the color range sucks; prepare to buy at least 2 tunes and blend your own shade. I use this to cover up scars on my legs when I want to wear a dress. I've found I am able to use a color correcting concealer under this that isn't waterproof , top off with this and it stays waterproof. Best applied with a brush rather than the spongey applicator.

Great cover up
Madisonpw from SD
I have tried SO many concealers for my face. Some are too cakey, heavy, light etc... No 7 was my go to but they don't sell their makeup at Ulta. Decided on this because everyone loves the mascara and I'm not disappointed. Legit works better for me than Urban Decay concealer. Like a majority of concealers, you won't have an acne/blemish free face but it covers well for the price.
Daria from Louisiana
I think it's great for the price. I second guessed the product before buying, but said screw it because of the price and it's a new fav! The shade range sucked, but if you can find a shade that works or can find a shade to mix with another concealer, grab it!
Sue from Pa.
This is an awful product....it is for me anyway. I will not buy again.
Crazybxby from Ohio
It says tattoo covering but it didn't even cover scars, it is good coverage but won't make your tattoos/scars invisible:( I also got the lightest color and it wasn't light enough but it is a decent product if your using it on your face
B from Tennessee
Total coverage. Can use for spots or all over. Fabulous price.
Tk from AL
It blends well. Sometimes it bit to bright depending on how it blends in with the rest of the makeup or type of makeup, if that makes sense
alexxx from Tennessee
I have SUPER dry skin and this looked great and blended so well! Was very surprised and absolutely loved this! Will be a repurchase!

Great price

I looove the coverage but I am sensitive to scented products. I was hoping the scent would fade away since this is such a great lightweight with max comfort coverage concealer but the smell lingers of old lady perfume.
