I wanted a concealer for my dark circles under my eyes, and this did not do it for me. The colour made me look too white under my eyes and did not really blend in to my skin in a natural way. It also feels a bit too dry, and after a long day I could see that it had settled in the fine lines under the eyes. I will not repurchase.
I love this concealer! It's the best one I've tried by a clear mile. It covers up my dark circles really well and stays in place all day. For the quality of this concealer it's a pretty good price too. I've tried other concealers but I think I will always stick with this one now. I definitely recommend it.

I'm glad that I follow up the reviews on MUA and bought this high lighter pen.
I've never bought a high lighter pen in my life because I never thought I would ever need it. I had no dark circles or any thing needs to be covered in my early 20s, when I tried on my friend's famous YSL Touche Eclat, it actually created fine lines on my under eye area and looked cakey on me which is not impressive. Nowadays in my late 20s, years of bad living habits (sleeping late, smoking, don't drink enough water, ...) finally makes me pay back. I have very visible dark circles, under eye bags, fine lines.... :((( even after I quit smoking and started living healthy, these signs of aging just won't go (seriously people, start taking care of yourself before it's too late).
Back to the product, it is cheap ($10 CAD in Walmart), so as packaging... which I don't mind at this stage, I may buy the HE one if I become queen of the highlighters one day. The product is great, I got the Rose Porcelain and the shade hides my dark circles very well. You really just need a little bit of product to cover the shadow. It is quite pigmented, a little product can cover a large area, so be careful to use. Too much product can create unnatural and cakey looking. I wouldn't say it's moisturizing, but maybe because of my skin is extremely dry itself. It does contain paraben but so as all those popular HE ones (some of them even contain more dangerous chemicals, so do your research before you spend a lot of money on some thing can potentially harm you). Unfortunately there hasn't been top-rated highlighters that are harsh chemical free, so personally, I will limit my use of the product.
Overall, a great product that does its job well. However I still think we should focus more on taking care of ourselves rather than hiding as many things on our face as possible.
Update: They have changed the packaging for Touche Magique. Now it's in a thicker pen, and the brush is much softer. Also the twist thing works better and the packaging doesn't look cheap like the old one. I was able to exchange mine to the new packaging in a darker shade (rose beige). I also love the rose beige on me better. It's more natural on my skin (rose porcelain was a bit too white for me) and completely covers my dark circles. Just keep it in mind, if you gonna buy this product make sure you pick up the one in the new packaging.
love this concealer. I bought it in the shade ivory beige W1-2. It has a tad yellow undertone to it but covers dark spots beautifuly. I love the application stick. You click the bottom to squeeze the product out. on a brush applicator works like a charm awesome! I have super fair skin and this works great just dont over applicate.. or it'll look yellowy.

Awesome product! I used it to hide my dark circles and it worked wonders. The coverage is good & the consistency is quite thick but super blendable. Definitely will buy this once i found it again continued >>

I find that this product covers up pretty much anything! I have very red scars on my face and it covers them amazingly, with a touch of powder on top! However as I do have very pale skin, I find the colour that I use slightly yellow-ish, I definately need a white concealer :( I have used many concealers in the past to try to cover up my scars and any breakouts that I get and nothing has worked as good as this product. A very good point about this concealer is that it lasts all day without needing a touch up. I have been using this product for over a year now and I dont think I could use any other concealer! Would definately recommend!

Pros:
* Decent coverage
* Illuminating
* Blends nicely (I use my fingers)
* Looks natural
* Affordable - although there's not much product in at all
* A little goes long way
* Minimal creasing throughout the day
Cons:
* Color range is limited
* I'm not too fond of the packaging, takes some practice to figure out how much to twist
Overall I'm quite pleased with Touche Magique and would recommend

This is a really nice illuminating concealer for it's price. Due to genetics and bad sleep habits I have quite dark circles around my eyes. I currently use this product in combination with my MAC correcting concealer - first I blot the MAC all over the under eye circles then I lightly blot this product in certain area over the top to add a little bit of illumination. It definitely works a treat and helps me look so much more refreshed! I have to be careful not to overdo the coverage though, otherwise the creaminess of the concealers end up highlighting my fine lines... which is not ideal! A little bit is all you need.

i love this product! It's super light and pigmented and easy to blend. After a long day it still looks just as if i just put it on! i use it under eyes, on darker areas of my face, (like corners of nose and mouth), highlight and conceal scars on my face. I like how the product comes out of a twisty pen.

This is a very decent highlighter for the price you are paying- it looks natural, doesn't cake, blends well, looks like skin, and really gets you that post sex/VS Angel/Beachy glow.
Apply it down the high points of your nose, on your brow bone, on your cupids bow, on your dark eye circles and DRAG IT DOWN AND OUT till it reaches the sides of your nose so that you almost draw 2 triangles. Then put some on your cheekbone and blend it out to your temples so that it looks like a C.
The difference this product makes is really quite stark, and very comparable to the Touche Eclat although creamier. It also isn't the kind of product that gives you the HELLO LOOK AT ME I AM SPARKLING finish, the finish is very natural with just the right amount of sheen needed.
Good stuff.
