Over my BB Cream, this is perfect to cover up redness or pimples. It's easy to blend in and a great consistency! I really like this(: The best thing is that it doesn't break me out more, like most concealers! I will definitely repurchase.
I got this concealer as a under my foundation concealer, and it covers scars... pretty good but it does not cover my under eye circles. This concealer is good if you are using it as a scar concealer but not a dark circle eraser.

It stings when applied over my eye area, it has no coverage at all, and the wand application is not hygienic. This really is one of those products for which the phrase "you get what you pay for" applies perfectly.
It's a watery light paste that streaks horribly. I have super horrendous eye area problems so it did not work for me at all, because it has really NO coverage! This is the type of drugstore product made specially for girls in their teens or pre-teens (or blessed women), that have skin with little to no troubles at all. Females with almost non-existent imperfections, THIS is for you.
********** UPDATE!**********
It can actually work as a translucent highlighter over foundation! (The lightest shade). I'll add another lippie for that!
This matched me very well, but I found that it was a bit to drying for my skin type. It worked better as a touch up spot concealer then one that I would use under my eyes or on a very red problem area.
I have really dark circles and this doesn't cover them. it's a little to liquidy i fine and not very good coverage. it covers a bit if you have like mild case of dark circles, but not me. I also find it to white.
This is overall a very nice product. I have acne scars and blemishes and for a day when I don't want to do a whole face of makeup I can use this concealer with some powder and I am good to go. It covers well enough to make me feel comfortable enough to walk outside. I also works great under the eyes. The only thing is the packaging, it has a doe foot applicator, It doesn't bother me but it might to other people.
I have had this concealer in the color “natural beige” for over a year, so if the formulation has changed, I wouldn’t know. It says it's an under eye concealer, but to be honest, I would say this functions better as a medium coverage foundation than a concealer. I actually thought it was a foundation when I put it on my face. I like the consistency…really easy to blend and work with. It isn’t long lasting though. The color matches my skin perfectly, which is why I love it as a foundation just to even out skin tone. Personally, I could recommend using this to replace liquid foundation if you don’t use foundation on all areas of the face. It is compact enough to just throw in my purse, and I don't mind using doe foot applicators. I need to purchase another one, and when I do, I might have different thoughts if the formulation isn’t the same. Overall, I enjoyed this for the consistency and because the color really did look natural on my skin. I can't give it the best rating since I feel it doesn't work well under my eyes, (doesn't last long) which is where they tell you to put it. I know it's called "Fresh Complexion" though so maybe it's not designed to be full coverage.
My biggest complaint is the smell. It is nauseating. Chemical-ly and chalk-ey. The coverage is good. The formula is thicker than other concealers I've used. It is hard to blend in, but definitely covers.
This is not a good concealer for blemishes or scars. However, it is a great dark circle undereye concealer! It is very lightweight and doesnt settle into my fine lines. If you need extra coverage under the eye, I recommend letting it dry a little before rubbing it in. I also dab a little on my forehead wrinkle, let it dry a little, rub it in and set with powder and it does a GREAT job of hiding the wrinkle (i dont know why but Im not gonna question it!), I use a lighter shade for under my eyes though.
I've been trying to find creative, but smart ways to save money and stretch my makeup a little bit. With the economy in a flux and the cost of living getting higher and higher, I decided to give covergirl another try by trying a few of their products....and I'm sorry to say, this one left me dissapointed and scratching my head. First off, the concealer is packaged beautifully and while it's very to use, the consistancy is HORRIBLE, I have moderate dark circles under my eyes and they kept peeking through even with the 5TH application. It might as well have been made for a baby, it has no base to adhere to, it's extremely hard to blend because it's so "watery", and it began to crease within an hour of applying it. At the price of $8.49 (yes, THAT much) I wanted to cry and venge anger on CoverGirl. I cannot believe they came out with such a product like this knowing how awful this formula is. I hope they discontinue it or come up with a better formula.
Will NEVER purchase again.
