Just got this product in Soft Yellow a couple days ago for my dark circles and it really helps. It only takes a tiny amount of it as well, so even though the tube is small it will still last a long time.

Great concealer! Comes in a huge range of colors and even corrector colors. I use this concealer everyday to cover my dark circles or spots. I like the great coverage in a light cream form and the squeeze tube keeps germs out of the container.

I love this stuff for undereye circles, blemishes, anything I need to cover up. It has such good coverage and most of the time I find I've taken too much. It lasts forever. I used to work at Merle Norman but have since moved and I'm afraid for when I run out of this stuff. I may have to phone in a mail order just for this stuff alone, it's that good.

Just returned from my local MN store. Went in to primarily look for concealer for dark circles and age /sun spots on my face. The associated did a quick "make-over" and I am pleasantly surprised how great a job this product does to conceal these areas. Many hours later, Istill look refreshed! Great for concealing the dark circle esp.! Use plenty of moisturizer under for a dewy look!

I would say this concealer works great for covering up pimples, or redness. Also I agree, it works great for an eyeshadow base. However, I have bad dark circles. I was hopeing this would help, but I had to apply throughout the day.. which im not a big fan of. For $18, I think it was a waste of my money because I don't have acne to cover up so I will not purchase again.

I have been looking forever for a good concealer. I found it! this stuff covers up soo good. I went into my local merle norman and told the SA(I think she was the owner) what I was looking for, what I wanted in my concealer and she gave me this cover up to try. OMG it covers everything I'm trying to cover! very good coverage and it last all day. The price is good too, there are some out there that I've paid more for and didn't do the job I wanted it to do.

I bought this in Bamboo along with the Luxiva long lasting foundation in Creamy Beige. The color is a little dark but they didn't have the color Warm Medium in stock. I usually like to go a bit lighter in color for my dark circles. They told me that it was discontinued or something but I just think they couldn't find it since the color is still up on the site. I will be comparing this to my MAC select cover-up in NC30. The MN one is thicker and doesn't spread as well as my MAC but that's because the MAC one is more liquidity. The MAC brightens up my eye since it's the right color. I think that even if I got the Warm Medium shade, I wouldn't like the coverage because it doesn't spread that well and I feel like I need to use more product to cover my dark circles. Also, the MN one is dry under my eyes and it's not smooth like my MAC one. I have them both on right now to compare. It was $20 cdn and my MAC one is $18.50 cdn. I will be returning this when I get the time.

I love this product. I have redness in my cheek area. I first apply a small dab on the back of my hand and then use a concealer brush to apply to the red areas. I allow this concealer to dry and then I apply my foundation with a foundation brush over. This concealer covers very well and lasts all day -- even in South Carolina humidity.

I'm not sure why this doesn't seem to work for me as well as for others. It doesn't do a very good job of covering up my moderate dark circles. I'll use up the tube on days that I'm not doing anything special, but I won't repurchase.

This stuff is bailing me out of a jam. I am having health problems and have VERY dark circles now, and this is the ONLY thing that will cover them! Yes, it's a little epensive, but well worth it. It only takes a dab, and it covers the circles and stays put all day, and doesn't crease into lines! Plus, it comes in colors fair enough for PPP's like me! Just dust a TINY bit of powder in the crease of the lid and you are good to go all day and evening!

I just bought this as my usual concealer was melting off my skin during these past few days of warm weather. (I don't know what will happen when summer is really upon us!) I like that this is waterproof, but is easy to remove with simple cleanser and toner. I like how it covers under my eyes, it doesn't get cakey as I moisturize lightly (I let it absorb into my skin before I put the concealer on) but I have noticed on my nose that it gets a bit cakey if I don't moisturize well enough. I do like that this is very thick, as a little does go a long way. I think that the color range is limited (I am used to MAC) but thankfully I was able to find one that works. I would repurchase, as this is the best I have found so far.

Excellent product. Use mostly as an eyeshadow base. Lasts forever. Will repurchase when I need to.

One of the best concealers I've used (I've used it for 2 months now...). Yet it's a little too dry for under my eyes sometimes. But it doesn't crease or fade...it's very pigmented.

Salesperson talked me into buying Luxiva Creamy Conceler-said it offered better coverage. I prefer Cover Up, though. It is "thicker", but for my (severe) circles, I need COVERage! Always go back to Cover Up!

I really like this product for my acne and scars. A little bit goes a long way, so don't be put off by the small tube.

This works pretty good for when my dark circles aren't too bad. It covers up pretty much anything else, I have a tiny scar on the very top of my forehead and this concealer covers it up perfectly!

Great HG product for me! I've used it for at least 7 years and it's the one thing that stays constant in my makeup bag while everything else changes. It covers up darkness, redness, anything that you don't want showing. The tube seems tiny but lasts FOREVER even with daily use. And it's cheap!
