I like this concealer. I got the natural, which came with the pale yellow loose powder. The concealer is a bit thick, but use moisture spray and foundation primer cream, with a diamond-shape spounge to thin it out, and it applies much more smoother. It also lasts thoughout the day too.

After readings the reviews for this concealer, I had to get this. I was so hoping for it to be as good as everyone had raved about, but for me it was the worst. I thought the consistency was awful, kinda gunky and it was hard to blend. It didn't cover any blemishes and really got cakey and crusty. I wish that it worked as good as it did for everyone else, oh well.

Best concealer that I have ever used. The yellow based powder is great for setting the look and it helps this long wearing powder last even longer. The powder puff really needs to fit in the powder, it would be easier to use.

I really love this product, but I can understand why many people don't. The problem lies in the packaging. I had to buy this concealer twice because the first time I bought it, I didn't screw the lid on properly and it dried out. If the concealer dries out (usually the ones at make up counters dry out quickly because they're handled so much), not even eye cream will spread it. If you keep the lid closed tightly, it will stay creamy and you'll see what a wonderful product it really is.

I love this! I do not have undereye circles, but I do have a few blemishes and some minor red spots from past breakouts. I know that's not it's intended use, but this concealer covers like a dream. It makes any trace of a blemish or discoloration vanish and it takes very little product to do so. Doesn't get cakey or disappear by the end of the day. I think the packaging is really cute and it's actually a lot bigger than I expected. Great lasting power too. I'm also a big fan of the sheer powder, I have a full size of this product as well as the one that screws on the bottom of this kit. I couldn't be more pleased!

For covering dark inner eye corners and acne scar redness, a good concealer is your best friend and daily must-use MU product. In terms of coverage and blendability, this concealer is excellent- one of the best- but the packaging is totally ridiculous. The stacked format with concealer on top and powder below is a silly gimmick, as is the useless, doll-sized powder puff that doesn't seem to fit anywhere. Thanks a million to Bobbi for teaching me the importance of concealer and how to apply it; but she really should re-think this package.

This is WAY too thick for me to use. It ends up getting very cakey and looking obvious. I ended up returning this because it is such a waste of money.

This is a great product. I have hoticed that the majority of complaints come from it not being a good eye concealer, which I don't take it to be. I am a firm believer that what works great on the face doesn't always work on the eyes and vice versa. I think this is a great face concealer with powder to set great for breakout-prone oily to normal skin. I do not see using this product on the eye area--too much fuss--but for the face it works great.

This is one of the worst concealors I've ever used! I had my makeup done today at Bobbi Brown and the MA used the concealor kit on me. (and note: I'm 22) I do not have problems with dry skin under my eyes. Yet she had to use about a gallon of the BB eye cream underneath to get the stuff to blend!! It still didn't work! And she needed to pull and tug really hard on the skin in order to blend it in. She did this--I'm not kidding--for about ten minutes! I kept thinking of all of the premature eye wrinkles I was getting from her trying to blend it. And when she was all done, all the rest of my makeup looked great, but I could STILL see streak marks from the concealor! Its been several hours now, and the area under my eyes is still sore :( SKIP THIS ONE. Try either Almay ALC, or Laura Mercier, or BeneFit's Boi-oing! if you need more coverage... or *anything* but this stuff!!

I had a makover done at the BB counter and the MA applied this concealer. This thing creased into the fine lines under my eyes in no time. It looked really thick too. Maybe the MA applied to much product but I ended up having to rub half of it off when she turned her back to ring up a customer. It looked to dewy without the setting powder and then it looked to cakey with the powder. I do have to say that the color selection is great. Maybe she used to much concealer but needless to say I didn't purchase it. I'll stick with my SD concealer.

I have tried every brand of cosmetic concealers and I just love this one. It is fantastic, outstanding and wonderful. If you haven't tried it; you should. It covers dark circles completely and the powder is amazing. It is a definite must have for anyone you loves makeup as much as I do.

*thumbs down* i'm 19 and this products sank into the creases below my eye! no matter how much of the setting powder i piled on, it still sank in after 3 hours of wearing it!?! *sigh*

Almay Amazing Lasting Concealer doesn't sink into my creases, dries matte, and doesn't need a extra step for it to set.

Save yourself from reapplications and wiping your fingers under your eyes.

My favourite concealer! This works best for blemishes and discolourations, rather than dark circles IMO. Having the concealer and setting powder together is a great idea. I use this with the BB concealer brush and get great results.

The cream concealer bit goes on really thick, so you need to apply a teeny bit and spread and blend blend blend! And after that, I dust on the loose powder with a small eyeshadow brush.

The results are amazing. Note that I have horrific dark eye circles, and this really concealed them. Not only that, but 'setting' the concealer with powder makes it last the whole day - no mean feat in Singapore's humid/hot weather!

An absolute RAVE for me. It worked beautifully - didn't crease, or slip. Definitely check one out if you can :)

This is much better than her old concealor (now discontinued). The texture is creamy, it applies and blends easily over eye cream and the powder locks it in for the whole day! I have never found a product that is as easy to use as this one. Once you find the perfect shade, you are ready to go. I use this on it's own, no foundation and it beautifully covers my dark circles. Definite rave!
