    i do love this concealer - it covers well and applies really easily. it doesn't last all day but it does last a lot longer than other liquid concealers. it is great for undereye and blemishes. the downside is that it's not available in Australia where i am and i wouldn't repurchase only because of that and i prefer thicker, cream concealers because i have very noticeable blemishes and dark circles.

    This is my HG concealer. I've tried so many over the years, and this really is a hidden gem.
    It doesn't irritate my breakouts AT ALL. (like MAC and Collection 2000 did to me).
    It covers all of my redness, and my awful skin around my nose - again, without irritating it.
    The coverage is amazing! For the first time ever, I will walk out of my door wearing only concealer. It really gives me so much confidence.
    The only downfall is that it's not particularly hygenic to put the wand back in the tube after dabbing it on your blemishes, but this hasn't given me any trouble.
    I blend it in with a Jemma Kidd stippling foundation brush, which works a treat.
    Does anyone know if Maybelline are slowly phasing this out? It's getting much harder to find in stores...

    Purchased this on sale at Big Lots for only a couple of bucks in the color Beige I believe. It is quite a good overall concealer; it doesn't sink into fine lines under the eyes and it covers spots relatively well. It isn't as high coverage as some other concealers out there but for the price it is very good, and I recommend if you don't have a lot to cover but just want to cover minor spots. Could do with slightly more sanitary packaging (dabbing the wand on your face and sticking it back in the container isn't exactly hygienic) but would still repurchase!

    This is not bad. I prefer to use lighter coverage foundations now so that I can let my skin breathe and minimize cosmetic acne, and I will use this concealer over those annoying blemishes that disfigure my face. I would say that it covers good, but not perfect. It is ok because when you set it with powder, it will look almost perfect.
    Well, at least I didn't break out from it, thats a good news.

    This is the only concealer I know of that totally matches my skin. The shade "Fair" is the one for me, totally! This product is good on coverage, but should not be used alone. It may have Mineral Power, but not staying power. If you have oily skin, it comes off really easily. It works best when used under foundation or on top of another concealer. This concealer is in a tube and comes with a wand applicator. One little tube can last me a very long time! Pretty good price, too!

    When my acne scars were very visible and I used to wear mineral foundation, I always used this concealer in 40 Sand, which for some reason was very hard to find in my local drugstores so I always had to order it online. I bought this repeatedly because the coverage was medium to full coverage, and because I have a bit of a bias for Maybelline products. I also have a gold/yellow undertone, and this concealer in Sand didn't look too off on my skin tone like it did in the other concealer shades from this line did. The staying power was pretty decent as well if I applied this before applying mineral foundation, in which it would somewhat set the concealer at the same time.
    I used a pretty good amount of this concealer back when I used it; I used to dot it in around 3-5 areas of my face as well as under my eyes almost everyday, so the value of this product was stretched to about 6–9 months before I had to order a new tube. I wish that this came in a squeeze tube packaging; I would have liked it more, because sometimes you're about to run out of product but you can see that there's still some left in the stick tube, yet the concealer wand can't reach it. It kind of feels like a waste, knowing how few dots of it I even needed and how long I could still use the same tube for.
    I no longer use concealers because my acne scars have cleared up and I generally no longer break out in acne, but if I were to purchase another concealer again I would always default back to this one.

    I got this product as i heard good review and bad though but i stil go ahead and got mine in the shade "Natural". It have a really yellowish orange undertone to it, i dont really like it as it does almost nothing for me. and its really drying.i like the packaging its just like normal concealor with a doe-foot applicator, easy to apply. i bought it and nvr use it more than 10 times and got another concealor. but still something i will pick up and use once awhile.
    Retail for SGD$14.90, got it at a 20% discount + $2off :)

    For an American product this is actually really good! It is NOT drying SURPRIZINGLY! Another surprize, especially for Maybelline is that it does NOT turn orange or change colors. I have it in the lightest shade and wear a few dots all over my face to cover redness and pores. Its beautiful and really does cover what needs to be covered while retaining the natural quality of minerals of NOT being cakey and having a natural finish.

    This actually covered well for me. It was not too heavy and didnt clog my pores and worked well on zits without making them look worse like my old concealer. I recommend this and I will repurchase it.

    Amazing concealer. Not cakey, buildable and perfect. It doesnt settle into fine lines like most concealers do. It works wonderfully for under the eyes as well as blemishes. Colourchoice is nice as concealer isnt too pink tone but just yellow tone. Just a great drugstore concealer, so much better than the Superstay concealer that Maybelline has. Worth buying.

    until I tried some more high end concealers this one was by far my favorite. I dont really have blemishes so I mainly use it for dark circles, but since my dark circles are very bad this doesnt get the job done.
    However I always keep one in my purse for touch ups because it is a great concealer regardless and its cheap so I dont get too worried about carrying it around.

    I loooove this concealer. I'm so grateful to makeupalley and the positive reviews I read for steering me towards it! But every store I've gone to lately has it on clearance or has completely removed it from the shelves, so I fear it's being discontinued. =( I have extremely sensitive, acne-prone skin, and this is the only concealer I've used that actually covers my dark spots/blemishes, undereye circles, AND hasn't caused a terrible reaction from my skin. I use it in the shade cream, which is a yellow-ish color that works perfect with my light skin but warm undertones. I'm definitely going to stock up now that it's on clearance, so even if it's discontinued, I'll have enough to last me years. =)

    I heard great compliments on this concealer I decided to buy it on whim since it was on clearance. There are too few shades to choose as there is only fair light and medium. It gives full coverage but doesn't feel heavy. the package is convenient for on the go with your clean fingers.

    I have this concealer in the color Latte (Dark) and it is just a tad too light for me. This is a pretty good concealer since it's opaque and covers what I need to cover. It's pretty easy to blend into the skin. The only problem I have with this is that it seems to melt off my face by the end of the day! I don't like re-applying my makeup throughout the day so I will look for a better, longer lasting concealer for me. 4/5 Stars

    Now let me start off by saying this concealer is yellow based. I dont recommend using this for blemishes as I dont think this is creamy or thick enough for that, but this is great for under the eyes. The coverage is also pretty decent, definitely opaque enough to cover 85% of my dark circles, which arent super terrible, but pretty normal for a high school girl getting ready for finals. Before this, I was using my bobbi brown creamy concealer, which I have to honestly say, is more opaque than this. However this formula is considerably lighter in texture, which I like, and easier to blend. Bobbi browns creamy concealer I found to look a tad cakey if you applied too much and could settle a bit into your lines if you werent careful. It was also a lot thicker in texture, and as a result it took a longer time to blend on my late rushed monday mornings. This concealer does not settle into fine lines and is pretty natural looking (My friends dont know I wear under eye concealer and think I sleep like a pig everyday because they can barely see any eye bags, I dont mind correcting them). Goof proof I would say for those that tend to accidentally apply too much; blends like a dream too. Sadly they do not have a huge color selection. I dont wear foundation, but im guessing for mac i would be around an nc15-20 and cream is perfect for me. (although I think I can use ivory too) It is very hard to find the full range of color selection in drugstores. Ive been to many and the darkest I could find WAS cream. However looking on their website, the color range goes like this: fair, ivory, cream, beige, latte, and sand. sand looks lighter than latte on the website o.O overall a good drugstore concealer, and perfect for those that do not have SEVERE dark circles. This will last me from 7 a.m.- 3 p.m. (start to end of school), BUT I recommend setting with a powder, or it will NOT last throughout the day.

    I love this concealer. I have been using it since the Mineral Power line came out. When I first got it, I didn't know how to apply it which made it cakey. After learning some makeup application skills, it applied like a dream.
    Super creamy and blendable with great coverage. It perfectly conceals my dark circles, new blemishes, and old scars. With this concealer, I am able to just apply a light dusting of mineral powder foudation and my skin is even toned and flawless.
    I only gave three lippies for packaging because sometimes if you twist the lid too tightly shut, it will crack and concealer will seep out on to everything in my makeup bag.
    I highly recommend this to everyone I know.

    I absolutely adore this concealer. I use it every single day, and it is amazing for covering blemishes and dark under eye circles. I also use it to cover redness on my eyelids, and it works so well. It's perfect for achieving a flawless-looking complexion, especially when paired with a tinted moisturizer and translucent powder on top. I highly recommend it to everyone. The only downside is that I bought it on sale, which made it about half price, otherwise it was rather expensive for its small size.

    Not the best, not the worst concealer. I started out using this when I first started wearing makeup, and I didn't really like it. However, I've restarted using it and its grown on me. Now I use it on a daily basis.
    PROS:
    -Pretty Opaque
    -Compact Packaging
    -Good Lasting Power
    -Seems to clear up any blemishes
    Overall, good. However, this product (or at least the one I bought) is severely yellow-toned. This makes it nice for acne but horrible for dark circles, which turn a sickly green. Along the same lines, this doesn't seem to be a great concealer to use alone- the yellow tone looks odd by itself. I mix it with my foundation to tone down the shade, or wear it under it. Overall, it's an okay concealer if you're active, travel a lot, or have small blemishes. It works for me decently.

    Its kind of average for me, it does a good job concealing and doesnt make my face oily (I only use it for undereyes), but it does look a little yellow.. It balances out after foundation though so it works fine for me. I probably would repurchase, I'll try another brand. I bought this because bubzbeauty was saying how this is her fav drugstore concealer :P

    I've this concealer for quite a while in the cream shade 4-5 and it was great when I got it it covered up pretty well and the formula was excellent.
    But lately its been dying out on me... It faded and I used a concealer brush instead of the applicator it came with and that helped tons! and setting it with powder helps cause its starting to slide a little on me. But I will say, it does emphasize on crusty spots after a few hours so i set it with chapstick and it does the trick!
    Not every product is perfect but out of the concealers I've tried so far, its works pretty well.
