Just horrible. It has glitter on it? I swear when I squeezed it out there is something sparkly. The texture is just rough, it doesn't blend. Defenitely won't repurchase. PS: got it in #03 Medium for HK$170 (US$22)
This makes my under eye area look grey and if I try to cover blemishes it's very cakey and unnatural looking. I don't think it's matches my skin tone.

I bought this product hoping it would be a great product to use under my eyes to hide dark circles and smooth fine lines. Unfortunately in this respect I have been disappointed. However for all other facial imperfections it has turned out to be an especially good product. It's very natural looking and up until now I've been satisfied to use it on bare moisturised skin. Even though its a let down with dark circles it's very effective at hiding those red/pink pin dots one gets when a spot is in its final death throes! I also found it does smooth out enlarged pores and can go on sheer to reduce faint red patches. For my very fair skin tone I've found shade 02 Light very natural looking without an overly pink nor yellow hue, I suppose you could say it has quite neutral undertones. It is blend-able and build-able. Packaging is good quality and hygienic. Not the cheapest product but a little goes a long way. I've not regretted my purchase at all.
I bought this in the barely mauve, which is an off cast white with a very slight purple tint to it. I believe it is intended to help conceal dark circles, so I was looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately it was not concealing enough for me. I use a pink based concealer, that is light pink to brighten up my dark circles, and I find that color works better for me than this product does. This isn't a bad product by any means, but I have something better already. Worth a try though for dark circles.
This is good stuff! When I mix this with a little eye cream (ROC) it applys very smoothly and doesn't crease! I have had two colors the first was the ivory, which at the time I thought was too light, but after getting a medium shade, they both work but the light was best. Topped with foundation, I think it works great!
I won't buy it again until they come up with some additional colors, preferably one that matches me well. Granted, I could probably buy two tubes of this and mix them together, but the lighter one that's similar to my shade runs a tad grey, whereas the one that I was initially matched with (Medium 3) turned out too dark and orange-y on me. I think it would've worked better if my skin had tanned a bit more, which is what it tends to do over the summer, but I can't see myself using this during the cooler seasons.
Even right now when my skin is tanner than usual, it still feels a tad darker than I'd like it to be. It also tends to fade on my oily skin by mid day, but that's to be expected. Otherwise, the texture is great; it blends into my skin really well and hides the redness around my nose area. It's not cakey at all and didn't crease on me. I love the fact that it comes in a tube. I think all concealers should just come in a tube, and for the amount that you're getting, you need only a little to get the job done. I just wish they had a better range of colors.
Was looking forward to trying this, but agree with the reviewers who commented that the color is gray. I got it in Light and the color has an awful gray cast to it which accentuates dark under eye circles, rather than conceal them. Ivory is the next lightest color, but has no yellow in it so I don't think that would work either. EL needs to expand their color range in this product!! Too bad, because the consistency seemed nice and it was easy to apply, plus I liked the squeeze tube. Can't speak much to creasing, etc. as I only used it one day due to the awful color.

What a brilliant concealer! Soft and smooth texture as the name implies,and goes on like a dream. Nice little tube makes only getting the exact product amount you need, so no waste. I like the fact there is no wand,so no bacteria is going into it and then getting wiped on your face again. It lasts for positively ages,as only a very small amount is needed. It blends invisibly into skin,and does not look heavy or cakey in the slightest. In fact it is undetectable,even under my eyes and in laugh lines. Covers dark spots and under eye circles well,and stays colour true. Stays put and doesn't wander. Highly reccomend this little wonder...I will repurchase again and again.... Love!

I bought this concealer on a whim and I'm SO GLAD I DID! I am absolutely in love with this product. It is the only concealer so far that covers up the dark spots on my face (due to acne). Ever since I started using this, I've gotten compliments from family, friends, and co-workers stating that my skin looks a lot smoother and even. This concealer doesn't dry out my skin which I love, love, love about this. I personally feel like this has good lasting power, though maybe not the best. But a bonus for me is that it doesn't aggravate my sensitive skin! The only thing is that I don't ever use this for dark eye circles so I can't say how good of a job it does there.
For reference -- I am about NC30 and bought this concealer in Smooth Light. Initially, it looks a tad bit too dark for me but after I blend it out it's a pretty good match.
Overall, this is an excellent concealer that covers up my pesky dark spots and smooths out my skin. I definitely recommend!

Just on my way to buy my second tube because it's gift time at The Bay. So that means, I should review it.
Why do I love this concealer so much? Because it is the best I have ever worn. I need concealer under my eyes and this concealer does not crease - AT ALL! It gives you a flawless finish and is so creamy, I just love using it under my eyes and to cover imperfections. I bought my first tube in August of last year, so we are going on 7 months and I still have so much left but I need a lighter shade with the sunless Canadian winters. So I'm off to get #2 as I have #3 currently.
I recently tried All About Eyes concealer from Clinique and after a few hours, I was creasing and coverage was gone, I DO NOT have this problem with the smoothing cream. I am a fan! No reason to buy anything else. (MAC, Clinique, Lancome, etc.) Yes it's $26 but lasts for such a long time and is worth every penny.
