Before trying Flawless Skin concealer I was using YSL Touch Eclat, which I love. I just thought I might need more coverage and the reviews for this one were good, so I decided to try it. On me, this was very obvious and caked up easily. I tried this only under my eyes and it really accentuated fine lines. I'm going back to Touch Eclat.

I use Warm 1 concealer as a foundation, with LM setting powder. It's icy pale, but has a yellow undertone that works with a redhead complexion. Most paleface foundations are either too excitable-red or too boring-beige. This gets closer to the china doll look. This is the only product I've found that is really my color.

First of all, I want to thank MUA members for their reviews b/c if it weren't for them, I would've never known about this amazing concealer. =) What I like most is the color and coverage.
COLOR: I got a Warm 3, and at first, it looked kinda light in the container, but after applying it w/ a Laura Mercier concealer brush, I realized it was the perfect color. It blends really well w/ my natural, un-makeup-ed skin.
COVERAGE: This provides really great coverage. It's very creamy, and a little definitely goes a long way. I use it to cover up scars, blemishes, and any other random bumps/red blotches that may pop up.
OTHER POSITIVES: SPF 25; container has a little mirror; easily accessible (Prescriptives counters are at Macy's, Nordstrom's, Bloomingdale's, etc); price (I could see myself using this concealer for a long time b/c a little goes a long way, so I think the price is pretty decent for a perfect-color, great-consistency concealer).
NEGATIVES: container itself (it's kinda difficult to open, and I'm afraid one of these days, my fingers are gonna slip and scoop out a huge chunk of the product while trying to open the container).

Overall, this is definitely a great product, and I'll definitely buy it again!!!

At first glance I thought it covered wonderfully, but after pulling out a compact at work I was mortified to find that my eyes looked very yellowish underneath. My complexion is medium and I was using warm 3. I'm going to exchange it for cool 3 and see if that makes a difference.

My HG!! Well that says it all... But in case you care, I have super sensitive, combination, acne prone skin. Recently I have been breaking out a lot along my jaw line. Upon replacing ALL my skincare, things are looking up. But I'm going through what is called a "purging" period whereby I get large red pimples in certain problematic areas. This is supposedly something you'd have to go through before your skin improves. Anyway, needless to say I need a good concealer to cover up the grey scars, and red pimples. I was never one to use concealers b/c most of them dries out my skin and turn cakey after a while. Not to mention the way they turn my red blemishes grey as if that looks any better than red/pink. But this, this coveres flawlessly, does not cake nor dry out your skin. On top of that, this is waterproof and last for hours. Make sure you get one in your skin color. For me, I have light yellow-toned skin. Level 3, though it sounds and looks dark, is actually a perfect match. Try it before you buy. For references, bobbi brown's acne concealer is too sheer to get the job done, and it lasts for a much shorter period of time. However, it is perfect for minor skin imperfections, and I love its texture, smooth w/ just a bit of light diffusing pigment it it. Nevertheless, for serious coverage, you need prescriptives'. As far as the price goes, desperate time calls for desperate measures. This is worth every penny to me. A concealer that does not conceal is too expensive for 5 bucks, one that gets the job done is dirt cheap for 20. Good luck!

** Update ** I had to quit using this product because it really began to settle into fine lines around my eyes and made them more noticeable. I ended up with a great product from MUFE - an undereye concealer that I bought at Sephora. This PX stuff is great if lines are not an issue. If they are, check out MUFE's stuff. It really works great!!
_______________________________

Like most others here, I bought this after reading the rave reviews. I have medium to fair light combination skin, don't tan well. The girl at the PX counter said I had yellow undertones (news to me b/c I had bought Px at other stores and they had me as a blue/red?). I have pretty icky under eye circles, and I gave this a try. As long as you moisturize your under eye well, don't have deep wrinkles, you should do great. The sales girl said with some this does settle into fine lines and such, so she had me try the camouflage cream under one, this on the other. This did better for me. Both covered really well tho. I use this under my powder foundation (which I got at the Px counter too (Anywhere Multi-Function Compact Powder - LOVE IT!) and then dab a little more concealer over the top. My circles are gone. This literally lasts all day - I apply in the a.m. - weather here is warm and humid, and I don't typically re-apply my make up during the day. My circles are still covered when I wash my make up off at night, and I am just amazed and fascinated at how well this product works. I'm sold on this stuff. Lord help of Px quits making it - I'll be a mess. But definitely go and check it out if you're looking for great coverage without the cakiness! Px changed their compacts, and it's this silver plasticy stuff. I don't like it - feels flimsy, but that's beside the point. The product works WONDERS!

Oh, my God! I'm actually impressed by a concealer! Normally I have a need/hate relationship with them. I need them desperately and they hate me. This may not be HG status, but it's pretty darn close. Nice smooth texture, great colors, blends well, covers evenly. I'll keep looking, of course, but this will definitely serve until and unless something better comes along. update:9/10/06 - after a few days use, I'm sorry to say that I have noticed that by the end of the day this concealer sinks into fine lines and looks pretty awful. So another concealer bites the dust.

I discovered that Px discontinued the Camouflage Kit, which I liked, and replaced it with this. I tried it in the store and liked it so I purchased. I am very pleased. This concealer is creamy and doesn't cake. It is just the right consistency, not too heavy and opaque but definitely covers well. I'm glad I tried this new product. Recommended!

The colors with this aren't bad, the Warm Level 1 was pretty close for me. I tried this a few years ago and I found it too drying, but have recently been testing all the concealers on the market again. I started using extra light olive oil as my eye cream and with the oil, this isn't near as drying as before. However, I think the sunscreen is an issue for me, and I suspect that's what in this that irritates my eyes. Compared to MAC Studio Finish, this lasts longer, but it's not as emollient as the MAC, IMO.

This is my first product review although I've been a member of MUA for over two years. I have to proclaim that this is the best concealer I've ever used. It's the only concealer I've ever liked. I saw it on QVC and decided to try it, and when I did, It was like a lightbulb went off in my mind. "So THIS is what a concealer is supposed to do." I've been using it at least 6 months. It does everything the other reviews say it does. The coverage and blending is perfect for undereye circles, the inside and outside corners of the eyes, acne, anywhere there is discoloration. I'll never be without it. It is worth every penny, and I've been using it every day for months now and haven't made a dent in it.

After reading all the reviews I just had to try this concealer. This product is great! I think this might be my new HG! It is a bit expensive, but I found a great deal on e-bay. I have really bad undereye circles and have very fair skin. I use the Level 1 Cool. Application with a concealer brush comes out a bit heavy for me, so I dab it on lightly with my finger. Since I use an eye treatment/moisturizer everday, it does not get that cakey look. Lasts all day & works great also with blemishes if needed without looking too made up. Will buy again.

Yes, it's a great concealer. Bought it in Warm 2 although I am very pale-skinned (nothing worse looking than too-pale concealer). Anyway, using very little (a back and forth finger dab) picks up enough to cover each undereye shadow - not completely but that's my preference (I don't like the airbrushed look). It's not very creamy - quite a dry texture. But I've got used to it. Although the silver-painted packaging looks quite swish, it gets a bit untidy looking with use. But the mirror is useful.
It is expensive at UK£16 but as you use only a small amount and it works, it's good value for money.

Thanks for all the reviews here, I finally decided to buy it today. The salesgirl introduced me level 2 warm and it seemed very match to my skin. I mainly use it to cover my dark circles and it worked great. I would say it covered 90%. A little goes a long way...so price might be pricey but it definitely worth the money. I am glad I finally found a perfect concealer. I have tried tons of expensive brand and this one beats them all!! I would definitely buy it again once it ran out.

I purchased this concealer after reading all the rave reviews on MUA. I chose Level I Warm and it is a nice match to my fair complexion (though Level I Cool looked almost just as good, but with more pink). This has a heavy consistency and covers the hyperpigmentation and little capillaries in my skin better than any other concealer I've tried. It lasts a little longer than other brands, yet wears off if you touch your face. My only complaints are the compact is awkward to open and I generally prefer stick concealers. Overall, a very nice concealer, and with SPF 25.

This is a great concealer! I have really dark circles under my eyes and this does a good job of hiding them. I really like the consistency, and since it is a creme-to-powder formala, you really don't have to set it with loose powder unless it is a very humid day. I also purchased the concealor brush and apply it with that, which I think really helps the coverage.

I bought this concealer a couple of months ago based on the reviews I read here, and I am mostly pleased with the results. I like the consistency of it; it goes on smoothly and doesn't dry out on me. It is perfect for any red spots on my face, and for a couple of old acne scars. It doesn't fully cover the shadows under my eyes (which aren't extremely dark to begin with), but I haven't found anything that will do that as thoroughly as I'd like. I really like the compact it comes in--attractive and convenient! I've been just as pleased with this as I am with Lancome Effacernes, and I would repurchase this in the future.

I've been using Flawless concealer (level 2) for about a week and a half. I adore the SPF 25 (being fair and blond and all) and the coverage is super. No caking halfway through the day, no emphasis on dry spots (the way BE Bisque did). Overall, I'm most pleased! Px Traceless used to be my HG, but this provides more coverage (I apply with my ring finger under my eyes, not to cover my occasional blemishes. I'm not convinced any product or any application technique will do that). The price is a bit steep, but a high quality product (particularly with a high SPF) is worth it! A little goes a long way, so I hope to have this delightful silver compact for months and months. Another winner from Prescriptives!

Amazing! The best concealer I have ever tried. It lasts all day through sweat and even rain, doesn't change colour, wear off, or creep into lines. The colour selection is fantastic and it looks really natural. UPDATE: I ended up getting horrible breakout in areas I'd conceal with it. It claims to be non-agnegenic, but was for me. Too bad! It would be a great concealer for non-acne prone girls. I found Lancome Photogenic concealer, which works just as well but is oil-free and non-comedogenic
