I would say that this is below average (I would rate this as a 2.6 if I could). I had wanted to get a concealer that could heal my zit while concealing it at the same time. I wanted to get the Clinique (either that or the Murad) medicated concealer instead, but I was running on a low budget (times can be pretty rough when you're a college student), so there I was at the Kohl's cosmetic center, anxiously dabbing a sample of it onto my chin, hoping that it would blend. If you look from far away, then it can complete blend in (depending on how you apply it). However, if you were to look closely at my face, then you would notice that I was wearing cover-up. I wanted a more natural-looking concealer. I also despise how it dries up so quickly. Overall, this wasn't great at all. Cute name, though. I wouldn't purchase again.

This covers well, and doesn't add to any problems. It must be dabbed on and patted into the area being covered, when no moisturizer is placed on skin first. Does spread smoothly if applied over moisturizer/primer/serum. Am using this as my "home days" makeup, to save my other products. My CCO carries the color Bodacious Beige 04, which is a perfect match for me (NC30). Have also been using it as a spot-treatment overnight. It does help tone down my oil production a bit.

Ingredients: Salicylic acid 0.5% purified water, cetyl esters, talc, peg-8, peg-100 stearate, silica, glyceryl stearate, colloidal sulfur, magnesium aluminum silicate, coco-caprylate/caprate, xanthan gum, cetearyl alcohol, ceteareth-20, peg-150 disstearate, polysorbate 60, disodium edta, [+/- (may contain) mica, titanium dioxide (ci 77891, ci 77492, ci 77499) iln25693]

Edit: I bought 2 backups (in Bodacious Beige, am NC30) at the CCO--it's a discontinued product. This is awesome and DOES spread/blend easily IF placed over your treatment serum/moisturizer/perfekt lotion/MD Skincare Vit C or Antioxidant Serum/Olay Regenerist Serum.

This works really well if you add water! At first it was too thick and not blendable, but if you add just a little bit of water onto the palm of your hand and blend it in really quickly, it will cover. This is the only concealer/foundation that doesn't make me break out, and actually does the opposite.

When I went to the store, the lightest colour I could find was In The Buff. And when I put it on, it dried immediately. And made my face all stiff. And it felt weird to the touch. Also...it looked so orange. And I'm very pale. So I don't want to be orange. I had to take it off which was upsetting, because I had an interview to go to, and I didn't want to be late.

I haven't used it yet as just being an acne healer. So i'm going to try it out a little. I'm just worried since it is also makeup that it will just make things worse.

I snatched it up when I tested it at Kohls and saw how well it covered a pimple that had popped up while I was at work. Also I like when concealer has salicylic acid to help heal zits (cause hello! that's what lots of us use concealer to cover up! genius!) Anyways. Visually, the tube is pretty dang boring. I think it would be great if it had a little brush or even a "doe foot" attached at the end.. you just SQUEEZE. and a very little bit goes a long way. For me, it does wonders on covering my problem areas and I dont have a problem with it flaking off. You do have to be careful about application because it dries pretty fast.. that is mostly why I took off a lippy because you need to do one area at a time and BLEND ASAP. Otherwise you will get stuck with a patch of concealer that is ill-blended that you need to wipe off and redo. Once you get used to that tho it's great. I feel like I will have the tube for a long while so the price is great for the amount you get. Its also really good for under-eye circles. I really like the coverage but I can see how it might not be a fave for others. It works better than any other concealer I have tried.

This did not stay on or conceal well at all. It was nice and creamy, but just did not work for me! I wish it would have done what it said it would.

This is not good as a concealer. Not at all. But this is probably the best spot treatment I've ever used.
As a concealer it's super chalky and it does not last. It dries stiff and unnatural looking, like you've just stuck a bit of mud or clay on your face. Even if you do not move around, it will flake off. I know this because I put this on at night while I surf the Internet in bed and it will always be pretty much completely gone by the morning. Actually if I check on it in a few hours, almost all of it is gone. Looking for a concealer? Look elsewhere.
When it comes to shrinking zits, this does wonders. I bought this tube a ridiculously long time ago and I'm so glad to see people are still reviewing it, meaning it's still being sold.
I tried buying a real spot treatment and it is not working nearly as well as this did. I put some on at night and by morning the zit is as least half the size it was.

So far its worked well. Its covered and stayed on. The most important part new acne has not appeared. Thats one of my main problems with most concealers. The price is great.

this is the lightest color i have ever seen! (my fair lady)

now...coverage- could be better. but it still hides it.

i have used it often enough to know if it actually heals acne.
but it didnt dry out my really dry skin anymore than it is.

10 bucks, but i had a $5 off thing so I got it for 5 bucks

When I saw this at Kohl's, I figured it would be a good product for me since my skin is pretty acne-prone. But I don't like it very much. It has a hard time spreading/blending into the skin. It's very drying too, so it makes my skin look chalky. I wouldn't repurchase.

I have very oily skin so this is used as my foundation and I love it. I have tried just about every foundation out there and this has to be the best for a number of reasons. The first reason is Golden Goddess is the perfect shade. When you are light brown w/ loads of yellow undertones it is hard to find the right shade. The only shade that's an exact match in dept store brands, besides this, is Fashion Fair's Honey Glo. Everything else either turns too red or ashy once the oils in my face mix w/ it. I love that a little goes a long way and $10 is a great price. It helps any pimples I may have and stays pretty matte, which is saying a lot if you only knew how many items I have tried to reduce the oiliness and oftentimes these very products made my skin more oily. Ugh! I will definitely purchase this again.


Update: I bought this product again and have yet to use it because it contains some salicylates, which are a health hazard, esp since I am still nursing...also the formula is a bit too dry as others have mentioned.

I seem to be in the minority but this works great for me. The "Bodacious Beige" color, while silly in name, is a perfect shade for my skin tone but I don't think they had all that many shades, a bummer. The packaging sucks a little - is rather cheap-looking for $10, as mentioned, and I've found that the lid sort of sticks to the tube sometimes - annoying, but not disabling. This is a rather liquidy formula that does dry quickly. How I get it to work is, take a tiny concealer brush and dunk it in tea tree oil, then put the concealer on it and dab on blemishes, blending all the way. I think the tea tree oil helps it dry a bit slower so I get a chance to blend a little more, and I'm left with good coverage. I also love the idea of a concealer with zit-fighting ingredients. This stuff will really not work under your eyes but on pimples it's great.

i hated this. it was so tacky, i tried it on a couple of blemishes and it dried so cakey and obvious looking. and i am not heavy handed with concealer or any product for that matter. it dried too quickly to blend propperly as well. i was just over all unimpressed. i also thought the tube was a bit cheap looking for the $10 you pay for it. you can find bette packaging in a drugstore concealer.

Actually I think this is ALMOST a perfect concealer. But not. As an experiment I decided to try it out under my eyes, where it decidedly is NOT supposed to go, I'm sure. It was very disappointing because it dried out much too quickly to blend, making it pretty useless for that purpose. But even more disappointing because if it were only slightly less drying it would be perfect. It conceals well, and stays put once you apply it - which is basically what I'm asking for in a concealer. If they would only tweak this formula to dry less quickly and formulated for use undereyes, I think they'd have something. On blemishes it did a great job for me. So great, I'm in pretty deep mourning over the fact I can't use it undereyes.

I really like this product. It is not your average concealer. I only use it to cover blemishes. It covers them wonderfully and really does make them go away. This is the only treatment I have used for my acne, and it really works! It does dry fast, so I pat it on in small amounts. Great product!

I actually like this stuff. I found that it helped in clearing up any blemishes I had. It was not very creamy in the beginning, but after using it for a few times, it got better. It does dry quickly, but I think that is more of a perk. I thought it covered blemishes beautifully, especially when set with powder. The packaging is nice, too, because it comes in a tube with a twist-off cap. Just squeeze some out and a little goes a long way! It's nice, because then you aren't left with any wasted product. I'll definitely buy it again when it runs out.

I first tried this concealer out thinking it could help when I covered blemishes with makeup. But this wasn't good at all. It dried out too quickly even before I could dab it on my blemish. It came out of the tube too dry as well. And after a couple of hours I could see that area flaking off, even though I don't have dry skin or a pimple there. This is the only product that I wouldn't recommend from Flirt. If your looking for a good acne concealer, try Good Skin's Acne Concealer, also from Kohls. It works much better.

Maybe I just got a bad tube, but the smell of this product is driving me bananas. It has that circa 1970s Clearasil acne medicine odor about it and it has been following me around all day. The coverage is adequate, but it dries very quickly and does not budge once it has so there is no room for error. The packaging is o.k. if you are using a concealer brush. Bottom line: there are better products out there for equal or less $$$$.
