This stuff is great. People think I have great skin, but little do they know that I'm hiding tons of discoloration and blemishes. It lasts pretty long too.

I use the light beige and it's a great color for me. I'm surprised at how many say it doesn't cover zits well...I think it does! Does a good job on darkness under eyes too.
Doesn't make me break out at all...I got the recommendation for this from zerozits.com's list of acceptable cosmetics....
My only problem, which I took off in the packaging quality, was that the product can break off easily in the tube...so you have to be careful with it.
Overall, it's the best drugstore concealer I've tried.

Let's just say - I should have gotten the green one. This does not help conceal blemishes at very well, and it's hard to wash off because it is waterproof. I realized I have more red blemishes anyway. It was kind of disappointed. Plus, I could not find a coverstick suitable for my color skin.

I like this-it works very well as an undereye concealer and good enough as a blemish conealer. Blends in well and stays put all day. I am somewhat in between colors but I can usually blend Ivory into my skin enough so that it doesn't look too light. My only problem with the coverstick is that it can tend to be a little thick looking at the end of the day. I'll repurchase though unless I find something better.

I started using this a few years ago, and haven't changed brands since. Ivory matches my skintone perfectly, and hides redness.

I got the green concealer. And it really works well. I'm very pleased with how it worked with other concealers, to help with blemishes and other red discolorations.

I would buy this product again....unless of course, I found something better! ;)
Actually it does a pretty good job of concealing dark, dark, hereditary under-eye circles like mine, given that I use some foundation and powder after I apply it. It is really thick and stays on a pretty long time. But just to make it less cakey on my face, what I do is rub a little cream underneath my eyes so that the concealer goes on smootly when I rub it in.

I bought it beause it was the only waterproof concealer I could find. I could conceal pimples easily but it caked on my blackheads. I found it easier to blend when I used a cosmetic wedge, because when i used my finger it got cakey and didn't work very well.

This is my HG for my dark,dark circles under my eyes. The coverage is very thick and matte and will hide just about anything. The color I use is light beige which I feel is better than the yellow concealer in that simply looks too yellow. However, I would avoid using this to cover breakouts since it has a bit of grease in it. I have tried many concealers in the past which have worked well, but this is just a miracle in a tube. I'll be using this one for life

this concealer is a definite staple of mine, since it is the only concealer i have found that matches my skintone, it's cheap, and it stays put. i had to give it a 4 though cuz while it is an excellent concealer, it says it's waterproof, and it's not. UPDATE: still a great concealer but since it is so thick i have begun to use maybelline's true illusion undetectable concealer and use this if heavier coverage is necessary. UPDATE: lost my other concealer and discovered the beauty of this concealer. when used with a lip brush it is so easy to blend, and is a lighter consistency, but when applied with fingers you get heavy, yet natural looking coverage. oh, and btw, i don't have oily skin so the whole not being waterproof thing is not because of that.

I bought the green cover stick...it works great....hides any redness VERY well....sometimes i actually just use this by itself (even though you are meant to put it under makeup) =P

Do not use this on zits. Use it strictly under the eyes, powder over it, and it will work beautifully. Medium beige is perfect for my skin, and it's so damn thick that it stays put all day. The consistency reminds me a lot of that MAC pot concealer whose name I can't think of.

This product didn't really do anything for me. It may be cheap, but it didn't seem to cover my zits very well and make them look cakey and weird.

They only have two shades here and the one I got was medium beige which wasn't a good match for me. Tried to use it as an undereye concealer and it does its job pretty well, a bit chalky but you can somehow blend it. Color selection wise, would buy Shu Umeura's Pro Concealer instead of this one

I'll just get to the point, it sucks. Okay so the shade was alright, but like nearly every other concealer I've tried it doesn't do much. I felt like I was putting wax on my skin or something.

I've been using Maybelline Cover Stick for ten years. I've tried many other brands and types of concealers during that time, but have never found anything that comes even remotely close to Cover Stick. I have combination skin, that's light and pinkish in color. I normally have trouble finding make-up to match my skin tone, but the ivory shade is a perfect match. It covers problem areas completely, and I can go swimming for hours while wearing this concealer, and it won't budge at all. I'm very satisfied with this product, and always have been.

Inexpensive concealer stick that gives a lot of coverage for blemishes (though I wouldn't recommend it for undereye circles). It claims to be noncomedogenic and I've never noticed it worsening breakouts. However, it only stays where you put it for a couple of hours, especially if your skin's oily.

This is an absolute must have concealer. It's actually the only thing I use on my skin, just to cover blemishes and dark circles. The texture is very creamy and blends right in w/ my skin. It sticks to blemishes and covers nicely. I just dab it on from the tube. For circles, I pat on top of moisturizer. It stays put all day. I do notice though that when washing my face at night, the first splash of water knocks it off. Good basic concealer.
