This might be a decent concealer but the packaging makes it so hard to use that you just can't tell.It is in a tube that has a brush applicator.To get the product out you squeeze the tube.The product is so thick that you have to squeeze with all your might and it doesn't come out then all of a sudden you get way to much.Using the brush to apply doesn't work and with your finger it is just too hard to spread.Try anything else just don't buy this.

I was having an issue with very dark under eye circles. I picked this up and it really helped resolve my issues. I do believe that it has made the lines around my eyes appear finer. I have been back to the store and purchased this four more times. I keep it hand because I don't want to run out. I use it around the eyses and also to cover up redness around the nose area.

I've bought one in soft yellow multiple times. This is the best concealer to hide undereye circles. It blends well, doesn't settle in lines and neutralizes the darkness better than any concealer in a more natural color does.

The formula was cakey, slightly runny, and full of globs. Point blank. Worst conealer I've ever used. The packaging consisted of a tube with a brush at the end. It got extremely messy and hard to control the flow of the product. Not worth the money. Overall, it was an icky product and I will not buy it again.

Once again a promise that does not work.....according to the photos this is a joke. Obviously nothing is going to take away puffiness except a blepharoplasty and dark circles need medical interventaion as well ....that being said, Physician's Formula Tox-Ten 50 should not have before and after pics and a description that is ridiculously impossible to achieve.....if a product is honest about it's capabilities then I wouldn't give a bad review.

Like MomColors said, I think they have discontinued this so this review might not matter - but you can probably still find it on eBay or something. Anyway.
The stuff goes on super sheer - this is NOT for people with dark under eye circles - really. They made a yellow one for correcting purple/blue-ish tones - but it really has such sheer coverage that it's pretty much a worthless product.
The applicator sucks. I always squeezed out too much at first, or too little, then ended up squeezing out too much the 2nd time. I didn't like that I couldn't wash the brush at the end b/c I was afraid to get soap and stuff inside the tube by doing so.
The consistency of the concealer is very light and has like a 'whipped' feeling - very light. I liked that. It seems like it has more 'whip' than pigment. I don't know if that made any sense but that's what I felt like :P
It settled very nicely in my fine lines after about 1 hour. And it lasted for about 4 hours overall. Not good.
So would I repurchase? No. :o)
I recomend this only if you have oily skin (it kinda dried my skin out around my eyes) and want very light coverage.

I think they have discontinued this product so maybe this is irrelevant. I have a love/hate relationship with this concealer. When it doesn't ball up on me and glides it is perfect for hiding the blue vein I have right under both of my eyes. But it is not a light coverage concealer. It needs a powder or foundation over it at a minimum. I hate the applicator, I squeeze it out onto my hand and then use a brush to do the rest of the job. I have this in both the Fair and Yellow shades. I am keeping them to see if I can get them to work right because I do really like it when it works.

despite the raves on the mu board, i was left rather unimpressed w/ this product. i find the squeeze-tube w/ brush applicator annoying and the coverage is nothing more than sheer-medium imo.


on the bright side, i experienced no breakouts from this product and it wore fairly well when dusted with powder.


"fair light" is a good match for my nw20 skintone.


i can't speak for its potential wrinkle-reducing capabilities.

I like this concealer a lot. I bought it in soft yellow. I have fair skin with yellow undertones and this color blends perfectly, I can't see that I have concealer on at all.

I notice that many of the people that don't like it are younger. I think it is better for women over their mid 30's. What I LOVE about it is that it doesn't settle in the little lines around my eyes like most concealers do.

It goes on easily and blends well. It really brightens the undereye area and covers fairly well. It isn't cakey.I don't need heavy coverage, it wouldn't work for that.

I don't care for the brush, though. I just apply it with my finger.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS! it sucks so bad.

1. it burns after putting it on. normal? i think not.
2. it doesn't cover anything. the only thing it does is ACCENTUATE dark circles and make them worse
3. it was like flaking off my skin halfway through the day. and i actually had to wash it off cuz it was so annoying.
i was so excited to purchase this but it was a huge dissapointment and now i never use it. and it was also pretty expensive.

the only time i SOMETIMES pull it out is to cover some pimples i may get. and its okay at covering those. but if i knew this conceler was this bad.. i wouldn't have bought it in the first place.
so don't =]

I haven't had any problems with this concealer. The secret is that I put on a moist eye cream, let that dry while I'm drying my hair and then I put the yellow and light concealer on. No cakeyness whatsoever. I have noticed that my dark circles have lightened over the year.

Didn't like this product - Usually I'm impressed with most of the PF products but this one failed miserably. The concealer didn't do a thing in covering any imperfections - a little too "watery". And also the colours are limited - the colour match wasn't even close.

I have very mixed feelings about this concealer. There is nothing I really liked about the concealer except the packaging was a plus. It is in a squeeze tube and it has a brush to apply. I have somewhat (what I think) to be a bit of an rough area in my undereye area. And I like to think that it did sort of help smooth my undereye area.

It does tingle when you put it on (not hurt) but I guess that means that it is working. They also don't have a wide range of colors and I got one that was a bit light. And I found that it does not cover well as a concealer, I could still see the dark circles under my eyes so I finally got disappointed and stopped using it. The price also sucks too, I think it is about $12, so overpriced, but so is all of Physician's Formula's products.

I have been using this product for several months on tanned skin and meduim fair skin. I bought it in yellow. It does cover dark circles and smooths the deep furrow between my eyebrows. It's not bad stuff. The paintbrush on the end is horrible to apply the concealer. I use my finger tip and dab it on then lightly smoothing. I would buy this concealer again.

I'm glad I am not the only one who hated this "concealer". What a waste of money! >=( Does absolutely nothing but make you look dry, chalky and like if you suck at doing your make up.

I have been on a concealer kick for the past year. I have tried Revlon :new complexion, age defying with botafirm,colorstay undereye concealer, and color stay stay natural, Covergirl: fresh complexion and cover stick Rimmel:recover Savvy: total concealment, Almay: amazing lasting and cover stick. Loreal:true match and quick stick Boots: no. 7 radiant glow, and Max Factor: Pan stik. Talk about some wasted bucks! HOWEVER, Covertoxten in fair light has won the award. I tested this against the others for awhile before I wrote this review. It is the only one that did not creep into lines under my eyes and it has a glowing quality to it that I would always notice when I looked in the mirror. This is a major feat since I am in my 40s. The Boots no.7 came in second because of the glow, but the lines were still there. This does have a slight different consistancy, but I have worked with it, and use it to conceal undereyes and any spots or redness. Brush application is not so great, and price is a litlte high, but after what I have been through to find it, so what!

I have very dry and prematurely wrinkled skin under my eye. so even the littlest concealer or fondation sucks to it like sand in a dessert. I've tried hundreds of different treatments, concealer, etc.

This concealer is not the best, but, it doesn't crease, and it truly truly does elminate the fine lines and dark circles. As long as I am wearing it. As soon as I remove it, they are back. So it's a temporary fix. It's worth the $10 bucks at Longs, because you can return everything you try. If it works, awesome, if it doesn't, get your money back, no loss.

I'd buy this again!

This "concealer" doesn't. No coverage. And it doesn't even have a good texture, it doesn't go on smoothly, and seems like I'm trying to put latex paint under my eyes! Just a lot of hype, also doesn't look like it decreases any wrinkling; in fact, due to the uneven texture, it increases the look of any fine lines. Have tried this product both with and without moisturizing before; both ways, it sucks.

This stuff has the weirdest consistency. It is like a stringy gel that is really hard to blend. Nasty stuff. Sounded good in theory! Get their yellow stick instead.
