i really like this. it covers my under eye circles really well, it's easy to blend, and it doesn't get cakey.

I have this in yellow/light.I hate it!The concealer covers nothing and is very watery.It does nothing but slip and slide all over my face.It makes my skin feel like a oil slick even when it is not.Save your money.

I'm using the yellow concealer on the redness I have from rosacea. I tap it onto my face with my finger for a light covering. You have to work fast with this stuff because it will dry quickly. Does a good job of blending out my redness but I'm still on the hunt for the HG for covering red skin!

I just bought my second tube of this. A first for me as I have never felt a concealer was worth a second purchase....always on the look out for the perfect one. That said, this is not perfect! It is pricey for the small amount of product in each tube. However, it covered dark circles, blemishes, sun spots and whatever else I found that needed covering!! Experiment a little, the natural side was good all around and the yellow was perfect for undereye circles and even some reddish blemishes. It blended perfectly (it goes on thick and you must pat, pat, pat with your little finger to get the perfect blended finish) and had adequate staying power. I have purchased so many disappointing concealers...this is one I want to keep on hand!! Edit 8/2009: I am finding this less than adequate on my darker summer skin...it works far better when I am pale!

I agree this formula is way too thick. I purchased it because I had been using the way more expensive Lancome correcteur concealers, which are yellow. They cover my dark circles better than anything i have tried but are pretty pricey so I thought I would give this a try. The yellow is great and covers my dark circles but also settles into all my fine lines and ends up looking creased and very obvious within 5 minutes of application. Everything about this product (price, packaging, etc.) is great EXCEPT for the formula. Will not repurchase unless the company reformulates it into a thinner, more natural looking product.

This seemed like a really good idea. Yuck. The formula is way too thick, IMO. It's also kind of drying, ends up looking chalky. It doesn't blend well at all. There is no way you can layer the 2 colors as they say. It's way too much product under the eye. Use of an eye cream/moisturizer does not help. Complete waste of money.

Eek! Did not blend with my foundation AT ALL. It ended up extremely streaky and settling into the fine lines under my eyes. Not a good one. I officially give up on PF concealers, none of them are worth the money in my opinion.

I think the yellow works great for circles under the eyes. The concealer sticks are usually too heavy for me and accentuate lines, but this liquid combined with my normal liquid foundation works really well. I wish there was more of it for the price though, or that I could just get the yellow only, but they don't seem to have it around here anywhere.

The yellow side did not work at all for me. barely any concealer gets on my finger making it very hard to work with. the other side worked okay for me. but the yellow stuff showed up yellow on my skin and uggh, it was horrible. the other side was okay though.

I bought this concealer about a year ago and sort of liked it. I put it aside because I bought Make Up Forever's concealer. The pigmentation in my skin must have changed, because Make Up Forever's concealer stopped concealing as well as it used to for me about a month ago. So I started using my Physician's Formula Concealer Twins again...and my eyes love it! It now works to completely cover my under-eye circles, and it doesn't crease nor fade like the other concealer. I belive it's waterproof, too, because I wear contacts and rewet my eyes, and the concealer stays put! At the end of the day if I am going out after work, I never have to reapply The Twins because it stays put! I only gave it 4 lippies because I have yet to find a concealer that is 100% to my satisfaction.

Expensive for a drugstore brand, but does an ok job of covering my significant under-eye circles. Lightly apply the yellow shade to the dark parts, pat in thoroughly, then lightly apply the 'natural' shade over it and pat again. You have to get it right the first few times though- if you reapply too much it becomes cakey and blergh. Not bad for the price, and decent consistency and coverage, but my circles must be too fierce for it. Rather than buying again, I'll save up and try BeneFit's Bo-ing concealer, or YSL Touch Eclat in Light; both of which I've had salesgirls put on me and worked very well.

This is the second concealer I've tried so far, revlon being my first and its sad to say that it just sucks. I have oily/ combo skin and this concealer is way to thick and does not like to blend. I would be surprised if anyone liked this product at all, its that bad so stay away. Save your money because I promise you this just wont do the job.

ok so i'm an asian and throughout the day, my face will produce a fair amount of oil. I mean, it'll look shiny in the t-zone area within 2 hours of blotting so if that gives you an idea...Anyway. The coverage was pretty okay if not slightly fake. And the oil under my eyes kinda clumped the makeup. Under close examination at the end of the day, it was kinda yucky but i'm not very picky about a perfect face and its liveable. I love the wand idea though. Lately i've been using the "pen" or whatever and i absolutely hate it. Next time i find a concealer, i'm sticking with this type of packaging.
Update: I've been trying a ton of concealers recently and have been aghast at how horrible some of them are! In comparison to the other concealers that i've tried, i definitely think that this a pretty great concealer. The coverage is good and i've learned to put on less if i want it to look more natural. I use this product with the Physicians' Formula Multi-Colored Press Powder and I think its an amazing match. Remember to moisturize because that aids in the natural look- seriously!

I give this a 3 on price because it's on the expensive end of drugstore makeup -- seven dollars for a tube. The key to this concealer is application: a thin bottom layer of the flesh tone followed with an even tinier amount of the yellow for dark circles. However, concealer should be a much easier affair, and application shouldn't be a question. It's not horrible, it does cover my dark circles, but it's difficult to blend and smears unless I lock it in with powder. I'm not throwing it out, but I'm definitely not buying it again; I think I'll pay an extra few bucks for the department store quality products next time.

got this free with purchase of the mineral wear (which is great) but this is... crap. The natural is weirdly pale and the yellow is well, too colorful. thick... but even with good undereye hydration (my undereye area is kinda dry) it still flakes and cakes. wouldnt spend any money to purchase it. looks very unnatural after a few hours of application

I bought the Light/Yellow combination. For the price it's pretty damn great. The yellow does help with dark blue under eye circles. The light blends. I use my finger to blend it - NOT THE WAND. It's sort of thick and pasty, so you might want to mix some moisturizer in there so it doesn't flake. You get what you pay for - it's drugstore makeup. As far as it being too 'yellow' or too light ... you don't need to use a lot, people! It's thick makeup. I'm sure lots of girls GLOB IT ON thinking they need all that product but you really do not. I like it better than the crap Wet N' Wild stick I had been using. It doesn't flake, or wrinkle, it just dries a little.

I got this for free when I bought the Physicians Formula Eyebrightener! I really like this concealer. This is a dual ended concealer with yellow on one side and a natural skintone color on the other side. The yellow concealer works really well for hiding dark undereye circles. The skintone side blends amazingly with my LLL skintone. I love this product and I would repurchase.

This was advertised as being a great solution -- two shades in one for different skin. It isn't bad either (concealer is important to me) but wasn't better than other's I've tried. And the two tones didn't seem to make that much difference, I don't know why (it could be I applied them wrong). But my search for the perfect concealer continues...
