ILoveThis product! it really conceals my under eye circles and you can use this for all the other imperfections on your face ex( scars, redness etc*). the only bad thing is about this is that i can only use one color from it on my entire face. :/ the yellowish one is way to light and bright for me, so i use the darkest tone, which is also pretty light. i wouldn't actually buy this product again though; i could just get a concealer that has just one shade that i would actually use... (:

This concealer can get a little cakey because it is a drier formula.I think it's only worth trying if you can find a color to match you

Right now, I am using this concealer due to the colours. I have the darker one, so instead of a white one, I have a yellow one. The other 3 colours are also darker. Depending on the summer or winter, I'll combine two or three of the colours because in the summer, I get really dark, while in the winter, I'm much lighter. Instead of using a brush, I find that this works better when I warm it up with my fingers and dab under my eyes. It is quite buildable after I warm it up. It has VERY good coverage for my extremely dark undereye circles that I get when I stay up late to study (which I do everyday).
However, if you apply too many layers(and I mean a lot), it tends to settle into any fine lines you might have.
For concealing acne, I also like using this, but I prefer just my BB cream that already provides great coverage. My BB cream just happens to be not so good with my dark circles, haha. . .
This was really cheap when I got it. It was on sale for $6 CAD and it came along with a sample size of the Annabelle foundation, which I also like.
However, I just don't know what to do with the lightest yellow colour. It's too light to use for concealing, and I feel like if I layer it under the others, it'll be too chalky or something. .

As a concealer, this doesn't do a lot for me. The white one is strangely textured, almost like wax, and wouldn't conceal anything. The pigmented ones are very dry and show off every little bit of dry skin. I have extremely oily skin but use a topical antibiotic/benzoyl peroxide cream, which is very drying at times.

The reason I am giving this 4 stars is that the white segment is AMAZING as a shadow primer. It keeps my shadow going until I want it to come off. For this reason, I will repurchase, though it's too bad I can't just get the white alone. I know I will never use the other colours.

A really good concealer!!! You have to warm it up with your finger but then it goes on great-- great coverage and lasts-- Yesterday I worked out without taking my makeup off and when I looked in the mirror after with my very red face the concealer was still under my eyes brightening the dark circles!!

this concealer was really dry, so it didn't blend well for me. the dryness also made it look chalky, especially under my eyes. the white segment was hard as a rock.

This is overrall a pretty good concealer and I may reccommend it to some people.
It covers my blemishes pretty well, sometimes I need to add a couple layers to certain problem areas.
As an undereye concealer it's alright, however if undereye coverup is what you're primarily looking for, I don't reccomend it.
It blends pretty well, however if my eyes are sort of dry, adding the concealer will make it more obvious. It sort of gathers in places and makes it look like the makeup is running.
I plan to go to better concealers in the future.
EDITED TO ADD: I recently just starting using this again, however I put one small dab on stop of my foundating that I already put under my eyes, then set it with a loose powder, it does a good job of adding that extra coverage. The good thing now is that I probably won't need to re-purchase for a long time.I can easily blend it with an old eyeliner brush.

This is such a good value and a great gift. You get 3 concealer shades that you can mix and match, and 1 white primer like product. So if you are not sure which exact shade your gift recepient is, you can't go wrong with this. The coverage is at best medium, so if you want this to cover bumpy acnes it won't, but for slight discolorations, freckles, and undereye circles it works well.

Also, the consistency is a bit runny, so I don't recommend this for oily/combo girls. I bought this because it was on sale at Rexall for $7.99 CAD, and I was in my concealer craze. I tried it at first, I have combo skin with the occasional acne, but it didn't really impress me enough to keep using it. Then I tried it on my mom, who has dry skin and freckles and she loves it. She actually snuck it out of my makeup drawers right the next day.

I can imagine if you are not super careful with your makeup that this packaging can get messy, since it is a cream palette with a twist on cover. It is plastic, so I'm not too concern if we drop it, and it hasn't melted on us yet even though my mom carries it in her makeup bag.

I paid $8 CAD for this, which is good value considering you get 4 concealers. I like that this is not in a tube and resembles the higher end concealers that come in a pot. That way you can dip your brush into it if you like. Like others said, this has a very thin texture so it only has light coverage. Some people said that this is greasy but if you leave this out to dry for a few days with the top off (as the reviewer below suggested), the product will dry up a bit and be less greasy. I love all the shades of this because they all have yellow undertones, which is hard to find in a drugstore concealer. The darkest color can be used alone on my NC35/40 asian skin, and the two lightest colors conceal my undereye circles when applied underneath foundation. Therefore, all 3 shades are usable. The fourth white shade is advertised as a highlighter on the Annabelle website. However, it has no color so I use this as primer to fill in fine lines around my eye area. Overall, I will use this as a back up but it is not my go to concealer. I won't repurchase after I use this up because the texture is too thin.

May I join the chorus of very unhappy users and say this is the poorest concealer palette I have ever bought.
Greasy, bubbles up on your skin, no coverage,.
Needless to say, its now in the garbage.
I couldnt stand looking at it and then feeling bad ( again) for buying it.

Wow, I am disappointed. I was expecting so much more from this. My HG foundation is actually from Annabelle and I expected much more from this concealer. Do not use if your skin is oily or dry because the result will be horrendous. I noticed that with dry skin, it crinkles a lot and leaves a nasty scale-y finish, and with oily skin, it'll just rub off. This concealer is disgusting, the concealer was quite dry and had a strange finish. It just is not a good concealer. I can find hundreds that are better than this. I cant really describe this concealer, it's just a very dry substance and does not work well.

Sheer coverage. I have to apply a few layers for my undereye circles. Very creamy and easy to blend, but for some reason the white colour is really dry.

Dislikes: it really accentuates flakiness if your skin is dry and settles into fine lines.

Likes: I can just use my fingers to dab it on, so it's good if you're in a rush.

This product is okay. It's not a fabulous find or anything but it will work in a pinch. When I first purchased, I found that oil or water or something had seeped to the top of the concealers, and I had to mix it in, because otherwise I would pick up concealer with a lot of oil (and therefore got very little coverage). It feels very creamy, but it's also a pretty thin consistency, so it doesn't cover my undereye circles too well. It covers my blemishes all right though. I also thought the white section was a highlighter, and maybe I got a bad one, but it was pretty solid (not creamy like the others). After I warmed it up a bit with my fingers, it went on my skin almost clear (and didn't really highlight anything). I thought maybe it was there to be mixed with the concealers to make them lighter but that didn't work either.
I'm not sure if I'd repurchase - probably not, as there are many products out there that are superior (in my opinion). I love how creamy the concealers are, but they don't provide much coverage - and if it's not going to cover, then what's the point?

*Update* - I've been working with this for a couple weeks now and it's not as bad as I thought. I'm actually starting to really like it. I gave it one more star than my original 2 because to me, that first impression counts. I stick my finger in the product to warm it up, then I use a good concealer brush (not a cheapie) and apply it to my undereyes. Once I have a thin layer spread out, I dab it in with my ring finger. If I need more, I take the brush and add a bit just to the areas that need it. The coverage is buildable so it doesn't cake, and it really is quite creamy. Still not the most incredible coverage but really not that bad. For anyone who wasn't impressed like I was, I recommend giving it another shot - play around with it, you might be surprised.

I bought this a few days ago because it was on sale. I liked it because there are different shades so you can mix and blend the colours to make it match your skin better. I had a problem putting it on my face. I have dry skin so I did moisturize before hand and then when I tried to put the concealer on it would streak. I even tried patting it on and building the coverage but it looked bad. It doesn't really come out smooth and uniform. I even tried without my moisturizer on my my face and it also and it still was't covering much. Yea I don't feel the quality of this product is that great. I won't be buying it again.

Its not horrible or anything but it feels and looks so creamy in the pot but when I put it on my skin it looks really cakey.
I do have normal to dry, very dry skin due to a skin condition. So maybe its just not the best for dry skin.

I gave this product a try because it had different colours, which I thought was a cool idea. I like using the darkest beige colour to conceal any blemishes, and it works pretty well under my foundation. I mix the two lighter beige colour for under-eye circles, and it does an ok job of covering them, but not as well as I would like. It’s also a little flaky since my under-eye area is very dry, so I’d suggest using a good moisturizer or eye cream first. The thing that I really, really love about this product is the white looking colour, which goes on clear for me - I use it as an eyeshadow primer. It goes on smooth, and helps my eyeshadow go on nicely overtop, and stay on all night long, even while sweating like crazy at a concert.

I don't understand how all of the reviews say it's greasy. It flaked on my oily skin!! I don't get it. Does not give me coverage and just makes me look flaky. Goes on really bad. DEFINETLY WILL NOT repurchase. :(

I bought this concealer because I am a major Annabelle fan. I have never word concealer before (other than trying out a friends) and I really like this one. It has a variety of shades, and the formula is creamy and rich, without making you breakout so it goes on nicely. It is perfect for covery my pimples and zits. I'm 13, so that's really important! The white shade is a bit to dry to use, but I probally wouldn't have used it much anyway. The carrying container is cute and small, so I could throw it in my purse. It is 6-7$ for 16g of product, which is a bloody amazing deal! I just which it provided a bit more coverage without having to layer. As all Annabelle products, I reccomend it.
