Totally and completely useless. It's a great idea and the colors are good but it doesn't cover anything and wipes off almost immediately even when you set it with powder.

I liked this well-packaged, blendable trio of creamy concealers, but they didn't like me. After a fews days of use, it broke me out (and I tried this several times, always with the same result, so it wasn't an unfortunate coincidence). The brush and mirror are excellent - I wish more concealers came packaged like this.

PROS: Lasts forever in the container. Love having different shades to mix. Good coverage and doesn't run off of me. And I have oily eye skin. Lasts a long time on my eye. (I like that there's a mirror in the case, but it's magnified in an odd way.)


CONS: The weird mirror in the case. Can dry a bit cakey, so I would use a primer or at least eye cream.


ALTERNATES: For drugstore brands, dense coverage alternate, try Mayb. Mineral Power. For high-end and dense-coverage alternate, try Cle de Peau. H.E. lighter version would be Dior's Hydrating concealer.

Another concealer I got over a year ago during my concealer-mode frenzy. I ordered mine from drugstore.com since I had a promotional code and 'extra bucks' from previous purchases.

The packaging is nice (matte type finish) and the inside with the concealers reminded me of NYX trio eyeshadows with a flat concealer brush. I got the medium palette since it had a salmon/orangey shade to it. Since my circles are very dark and hereditary I needed something that covered. This unfortunately did not work out for me, BUT it worked out well for my friend who has fair skin (I'm NC30 range).

The texture felt creamy, but on me almost too creamy that it moves around A LOT! So when I blended this in with my fingers/brushes I would always have to go back and pack more on... making it look messy. The salmon shade did cover, but the coverage didn't stay long at all. After an hour, I could see my circles slowly appearing even after I set it with powder.

I gave it one lippie from my personal experience (plus the brush is actually decent), but I'm sure if my friend were to review it she'd give it a 4 or 5. So this is one of those 'try at your own risk' type of deal.

This is amazing my 1st concealer palette. The colors are amazing for under eyes, but like other people have said it doesnt last very long. Even with primer =/ The finish is also very natural I also think its a very good price for what you get. The salmon color is perfect to hide dark circles. The deeper flesh tone color is good for blemishes, and the light middle color is good for under the eyes to brighten. This is also very creamy and easy to blend. I have had the same palette since Dec and barely hit pan on one color. I use it everyday too. Must try ladies.

This is an ok product I have been using for a few years. The 3 blendable concealer colours and brush are handy and together in a small package. The negatives would be that it doesn't last long, requiring frequent reapplication, and even when tightly closed, lint manages to get in. I will probably continue to use this, but I wish somehow lint wouldn't be able to get in.

I needed a good concealer so I bought this because of the good reviews, but I don't like it...I have been using it for a couple of months now( wanting to like it) but it makes me break out. It just clogs my pores....

I really like having three shades on hand and I get great undereye coverage with this palette, but it doesn't last! The initial finish is better than anything else I've tried but within two hours (I'm prone to rubbing my eyes) it's as though I never applied it to begin with. I even set the concealer with powder when I'm done. What a pity - I would totally love this if it lasted even half the day!

this is a good concealer the trio makes it easy to mix and match colors. It also stays on pretty well. I have oily skin but the concealer didnt seem to rich for it so that was a plus.

I like this. I don't love it. I like the 3 colors because I can use darker shades in summer...lighter in winter. I use the lighter under my eyes. I use the darker around my forehead or nose when i want a little more coverage.

The odd thing: the darker color is 'harder' when i touch it. The lighter 2 shades are creamy, moist and glide on. I have to use the darker with moisturizer or the medium shade b/c it is too hard.

Overall I'm happy. It's lasting a long time!!!!!!

I want to try Bobbi Brown.

I picked this up because of all the good reviews I had found both on Makeup Alley and other sites. Unfortunately I did not have the positive experience many others raved about.
I found the product to be very drying and settled into fine lines, making it very noticeable.
It was very hard to blend as it is not a cream consistency and did not cover my circles, which are only moderately dark.
The colours were okay, but I had to blend them all together to find the closest matching shade to my skin tone, but even then I was never fully satisfied.
I have tried to use this for over 2 weeks, playing with different application techniques and moisturizers, but sadly nothing has worked.
Overall I was VERY disappointed with this product and will not purchase it again.

Holy grail concealer for me! I purchased this in Dark after a respected Beauty Editor raved about it & I must say, she was right. The middle shade was perfect for me but after using it all, I simply slightly combined a little of the first & last color & it worked. This stuff also lasts for me since I only use concealer under my eyes - my skin tone is comparable to Sanaa Lathan's & this matched perfectly.

This came in a former TSV offering from QVC.
This product came in a nice black compact. I didn't get to use it yet, but I will edit my review when I do. I just wanted to point out, just because one has brown hair and brown eyes, be careful about the medium kit. I purchased a Serious Skin Care make-up kit and their "85% of you can use the medium" quote is b.s., luckily in that kit, the concealer was lighter than the medium foundation. Both the host and Cristina Carlino said they wear the medium. My hair is lighter than Carlino's - I decided between that and my experience with SSC to go with the light kit. I'm glad I did. Check the colors on Sephora as the Q's swatches are basically worthless. If you notice the choices, the last color in the light kit, is the first in the medium, and the last color in the medium is the first in the dark kit. So, I do get one shade in the medium family if I wanted to experiment.

I will edit this review when I actually use the product.

ETA: This is a very nice concealer, it's easy to go on, the color blends smoothly. It does down the darkness. I recommend this product.

This is a great concealer. It's actually the first cream concealer I've tried since I've had issues with breakouts in the past, but so far I haven't had any problems at all (I've been using it for 3+ months). I like how it stays better and provides better coverage than a liquid concealer, yet still looks surprising natural. It's great not to have to buy a new shade when summer rolls around, since the two shades that I use (I don't use the third one, the lightest one -- it's the consistency of pancake makeup) cover the spectrum of my skin tone. To top it all off, the mirror in the compact is great.

I bought this concealer after reading some rave reviews about it on bellasugar.com, and I have to say that I have yet another glowing review of my own to add. I bought the 'medium' palette and so far, I'm in love. I have pretty dark circles under my eyes thanks to years of staying up late to study/sleep problems/general mischief on my part, and this is the first cream concealer I've tried that doesn't go all cakey on me and produce wrinkles under my eyes that don't actually exist. I use one shade (the one in the middle) as the base (the brush included with the palette is great but I prefer to use my regular concealer brush instead) to cover up my dark circles, and use the other two to blend over that color to make it look natural. I don't use one color as much (a bit too red for my complextion) but maybe I'll use it more when my skin gets a bit darker in the summer. The texture is creamy (not too creamy) and probably works best right over your eye cream. Definitely will buy again.
EDIT: OK, somehow this became totally weird on me. The shade I use to get rid of the dark circles (the lightest shade in the palette) got all weird on me and started drying out the skin beneath my left eye, even with eye cream, which I always use prior to concealer application anyway. I don't know what happened, but I haven't had this type of reaction to a product before. Just a warning...

I love the packaging also, but I look a few years older when i use this under my eyes. It really does settle in the creases. I have to wipe it off a couple times during the day to make sure it's no so noticable. Also it doesn't last long on oily skin. I do love that i can mix up the colors to match my skin, but one of the three colors is way off!

This is the best concealer I have ever tried for undereye. The texture is smooth and the coverage has a unique way of being full but light. I use all three of the colors for different portions of my face, so don't worry that only one will match you. I use the darkest color in the dark ring above my orbital bone to cancel out the purplish hue. I cover that with the lightest to brighten. I also use the lightest color on top of my orbital bone and down my nose to mouth lines as a highlighter. The medium tone of matches my skin most closely and I use that for dark spots, scars, or blemishes. This is a foolproof and multi-functional concealer palette. The brush is functional and a good size. As a side note, the mirror in the compact is to die for. I love everything about this thing!!!

I am surprised i like this palette so much. Recently got it as part of a kit on QVC but this retails separately for $25. Inside you get 3 shades so you can mix and match to get the perfect shade. I ordered this in medium and I am an NC30 light olive complexion. The middle shade is kinda light, one is just a little dark and one is just a tad too dark. i mix the lighter with the darker and medium and get a really nice color match. Its definately something you have to play with to get the right color but once you do, the match is perfect. The coverage is not thick and cakey and doesnt settle into my fine lines. It has a nice amount of slip to it but isnt too wet or too dry. Lasts all day. I think this color palette in medium will work with people lighter than NC30 as well as a little darker. A few degrees in each direction. Overall, very happy with this.

this concealer is just okay IMO. you get three different colors and a pretty generous amount of each. this concealer does blend well if you have to mix the shades together. i find it settles in lines under my eyes and it disappears rather quickly even with powder. i do like the brush that it comes with and how it fits in the compact for easy travel and the mirror is a good size.

I have this in medium but unfortunately use only one pot out of three. Apart from this wee malfunction, I LOVE it. The best concealer I have had so far. Stays on like nothing else and the colour, eventhough just one of them :), is perfect for my colouring. Will definitely repurchase. Oh and the packaging is just lovely.
