I love this! It stays put and is very natural and my face still feel clean.

I wrote a review last week on a couple Dr. Hauschka products that I’ve tried. It seems like there aren't enough reviews of their products. Overall it’s been a good experience. If it would help, you can read my thoughts here:

This product is for covering and healing blemishes. Why on earth are people using it for undereye circles? Did they read the box?

I haven't tried this product yet but am very familiar with the Dr Hauschka range - I was surprised to see the number of reviewers who have been applying this to their eye area - no wonder it hurts!

Here is the product blurb:

Dr.Hauschka Pure Care Cover Stick
Clarifying aid that conceals and heals blemishes

For many women, even with skin conditions other than oily or blemished, throughout much of adulthood there is likely to be the occasional appearance of a pimple; due to hormonal influences on a monthly basis, pregnancy and post natal with associated high levels of hormones or sometimes stress and/or lifestyle factors can be the instigator. For teens through to twenties Pure Care Cover Stick is of course a must have.

NEW Dr.Hauschka Pure Care Cover Stick is an invaluable skin care addition. To conceal and heal quickly, reducing the likelihood of scarring.

Our NEW Dr.Hauschka Pure Care Cover Stick is to be used at the first sign of problems, for the new cover stick not only conceals skin blemishes – thanks to its special composition the blemish will heal quickly, too. It is a clarifying aid that will support the skin until its normal condition is restored.

• The Dr.Hauschka Pure Care Cover Stick with its cool woody fragrance conceals and heals skin blemishes and imperfections.
• The antibacterial action of tea tree and manuka oil with extracts of anthyllis and calendula support the healing process.
• The smooth base made of natural waxes cares for the skin and prevents it from drying out.
• Tapioca starch from the roots of the cassava plant helps prevent shine.

Dr.Hauschka Pure Care Cover Stick is available in natural 01 or beige 02 and is part of our Skin Care system – rather than our Decorative range.

I love this product!
I use coverup for blemishes and red skin around my nose. I had been using Rimmel coverup for years, and although I found it effective, wanted to go for something more natural.

This Dr H concealer works fantastically: I like the smell, and it provides great coverage without drying out my skin. I love the consistency, it's very creamy. I personally prefer concealer sticks to liquid concealer - it just doesn't work for me - and use this one by rubbing my finger on the stick and putting it on my face with my fingertips. It doesn't go flakey. It is, however, very expensive.

The 01 is great for my fair skintone, however I have to admit that I was disappointed when I used the Dr H Translucent makeup in 01...it's just too dark and doesn't have enough coverage. So my search for the perfect concealer is over, but my search for the perfect (natural!) foundation continues.

I would definatley go for this product again! My skin is generally oily with a few blemishes and this covers them wonderfully! I use this along with Jane Iredale's Amazing Base in Ivory and the result is just what i need, a matte smooth clear appearing complexion.
The scent of the product is not brilliant but it doesn't linger. The packaging is quite heavy and robust, good if like me you generally stay away from home alot.

Horrible. bought it based on reviews here. Texture is awful. And the smell is a nightmare. I find it hard to believe that anyone would give this product a good review unless someone paid them to. But maybe I got a dud. I generally like Dr. H products.

I'm pretty disappointed in this product. Luckily I got it in a swap, and didn't have to pay the retail price for it (I think it's around $16 originally?). This doesn't do very well covering dark circles, and does even worse with blemishes. Max Factor Erace in Fair is comparable, but better than this product at much less price.

Bought this based on the reviews here. I don't love it or hate it. It just didn't do a great job covering my undereye circles, too sheer for me.

I have had a lot of problems with finding a good concealer/ coverstick.This is the best one that I have tried and not the most expensive one.(UPDATE:not anymore!Trucco concealer in neutral is the best I have used)It covers very well redness.I have some skin problems and often redness on my face especially around my nose.This stick covers that perfectly and doesn't dry out or damages my skin like most of these cover products.I think it is a very good product to cover up spots, rashes and things like that.People will not notice (also in daylight!)that you used it.It looks so natural and covers very well.It hasn't a matte finish (who's skin is really matte?!), but isn't oily either.Also it adapts to your skin colour.I like it that it comes in a stick like a lipstick.For applying it is better to use a good concealer brush.You can use your fingers too to spread it, but a lot will be on you fingers and not on your face and that's a shame.Because it isn't necessary to use a brush you can take it with you in your bag just in case.I would like to give this product 5 lippies for covering redness, but 4 lippies for covering dark circles under the eyes.I must say that all concealer products that I have used just didn't do a perfect job for my eyes.
UPDATE:I have given it 4 lippies instead of the 5 lippies earlier, because I am not so pleased anymore with this product as I used to be at the beginning.The coverage is too sheer.If I layer it it will look white and unnatural.This coverstick is good if you need just a bit of coverage.

I, too, tried this concealer because of the rave reviews on this site. The product was so hard that my skin actually hurt from trying to apply! I'll stick with my absolute favorite--Estee Lauder's Stay-in-Place Concealer

Tried this concealer based on reviews here hoping to cover my dark circles. This product does not work at all on me, it does disappear into the skin like others have said and it tends to give a lightening effect. The problem is it lasts less than 1 hour and doesn't cover well at all. I tried this product 4 or 5 times and each time had to use my Aveda concealer over it. since then, it's been in my makeup graveyard drawer..... oh well, at least it was cheap. Still looking for HG concealer.

I bought the Puncto 01 concealer because of all the great reviews here at Makeup Alley. Boy was I disappointed. The coverage was almost shear and did not conceal very well. I could not believe this was the same concealer everyone had raved about. I think Paula Begouin had it right in her assessment on this one.

I love this but then again Dr.Hauschka has not failed me yet. It covers beautifully. Stays put all day. Just perfect. It has become a staple for me. I use to use Becca, Aveda, Laura Mercier and Bobbi Brown and I sware that this is so much better. Always looks natural and never creases. I wish this came in a foundation size so I could use it as foundation. I think it would look perfect. I JUST LOVE DR.H

Oh my God this is GREAT! I thought I had found my nr one concealer in YSL Multi action concealer, which is superb but this is even better and cheaper!!! It "melts" into your skin creating the perfect conceal for dark circles. You get an illuminating effect that seems to light up the whole face. I think it is good to dust a little powder on top to set the concealer. I doubt that anyone has anything bad to say about this one. UPDATE/ After using this for a little while, compared to my other concealers Im not impressed anymore!! I'll stick with YSL Multi Action Concealer and Diors Smoothing Anti Fatigue Concealer.

I *love* the idea of switching to all-natural makeup, if only to help even out my skin and stop breakouts. I usually wonder, though, if switching from high-end cosmetics that contain chemicals to natural ones means sacrificing performance. I am pleased to say that in this case.... *NO*!! This concealor is amazing. I was weirded out at first by how thick it is, wondering how well it would blend. I put it under my eyes, around my nose and on some chin blemishes. By the time I went to blend my eyes.... the concealor had already sunk into my skin and blended itself! It seems like it works with your skin's natural oils to really melt perfectly with your skin tone. The other great quality about this concealor-- one that isn't mentioned on the tube or by other reviewers --is the amazing light-reflection quality this has. It really brightens my eye area, not just evening the skintone but actually enhancing it. LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. Will never buy anything else.

I just bought this a couple of days ago, after using MAC concealer for over a year. Already I think this one is better than my MAC concealer, for a couple of reasons. First, it comes in a stick and not in a pot. Second, it's by Dr. Hauschka, and I'm making a concerted effort to start buying more "natural" makeup. Third, it feels amazing on and, as one other reviewer said, I don't have to wear any other makeup when I swipe it on under my eyes, a little on my nose and chin. It's amazing all around.

I was unsure at first because it seemed too thick somehow or like it wouldn't be easy to blend, but I was totally wrong and I am now in love with this concealer. Reasonably priced, too.

EDIT: I recently threw this away after using it for the past year. I discovered that it was responsible for clogging the pores on my nose. It was still good for undereye concealing, but not anything else.

Let's see. . . I have YSL Touche Eclat, Cle de Peau, a battalion of concealers from EL, Dior, Almay--you name it, I've tried it. Guess what? This one is the best. It goes on creamy and blends easily, but once it's set it doesn't rub off or collect in fine lines. It matches my skin perfectly. It doesn't irritate. Oh, and it actually tones down my dark circles. Doesn't eradicate them entirely, but it does a much better job than Touche Eclat or Cle de Peau . . . for a fraction of the cost.

I agree with all of the below. Paula Begoun gave it low marks, so I was skeptical, but I think it works beautifully and the lighter shade matches my pale-ish skin perfectly. Because of the soothing ingredients in this product, it really helps blemishes heal more quickly; I actually sometimes use it just as a treatment for blemishes too.
