Almay Clear Complexion Blemish Healing Spot Concealer

YES HOLY GRAIL. it stays on all day, even after working out, can be built up to a high medium coverage doesnt break me out, looks natural and non cakey on my dry patches but still holds up quite well on my oily part. I wear this everyday without foundation for a natural look and people cant tell im wearing makeup. only the shade range kinda sucks. fortunately, the lightest shade works on my skin very well but I dont know what Im gonna do going into summer.

I have been using this concealer for nearly a decade! I am the biggest advocate. If I have a particularly bad pimple, I dab this on it before bed and I swear it looks better by the morning! I truly believe the salicylic acid in this helps clear up my acne and the product blends so well. I can't go a day without this concealer!!

This would be better in a tub or something where it was easier to get to the product when it's running low. I keep buying this, because with the salicylic acid in it I don't worry about applying this concealer over pimples when I have to go out somewhere. I don't think it actually does anything to heal them, but it definitely doesn't make them worse or cause them. I'll keep buying this for that reason. I use another concealer for under eyes and to cover a vein I have on my nose (until I have that permanently removed!). I don't find the coverage on this is enough for the vein but it does do the trick for breakouts.

This concealer cracks badly once it dries. It has no discernible positive effect on acne blemishes.

I've used this concealer for a long time and it just doesn't do it for me. I've used both the light color and light/medium color yet neither of those seem to match me. The light/medium is too dark on me, and the light color one seems like it either goes on too lightish/pinkish or turns pinkish over the day on the face. Not to mention that this doesn't cover redness or marks well at all. Very bad coverage. The only reason this rating isn't a one star review is because this is one of the very few coverups that doesn't react with my sensitive skin. However, it's time to get over my laziness and find a better concealer.

This product is terrible. It says it helps for a clearer complexion but it doesnt help blemishes at all. I had a terrible break out after using it! I have really oily skin and this just makes my face get all cakey and gross. I go to the bathroom in between classes at school and you can tell exactly where I put on my concealer. I think I would rather wear no makeup at all. It doesn't blend well and its a bit thick but its not too bad. There isn't very much product in the tube either so its not at all Worth it. I will never purchase this again and I would never recommend this product.

Was genuinely surprised by this! Used it on my acne and scarring, and it worked like a charm. It was able to cover up tough spots, and it lasted way longer than I ever expected. The price wasn't too bad either.
My only complaints would be the colour range (there are barely any shades to choose from), and the packaging (just because you can't test it).
I applied it with a flat top brush for more coverage, and used my fingers to aid. Wouldn't recommend using it directly from the little sponge brush thing, as it's known to transfer bacteria and create more breakouts.

Ive been using this concealer on and off for about 100 years it feels like. I always have a tube stashed somewhere for covering zits. Thick and stays put. Blends well but you gotta blend fast-and perfectly. I would only use this on pimples or oily areas. Does not heal pimples but doesn't cause them. The lightest shade could/should be a bit lighter imo but it works

This is my HG concealer! I used to have horrible acne - now cleared up - but I still have very sensitive, oily, acne-prone skin, and when it comes to any type of face product I am always a little leery to try it on my face, but when I saw that it contained salicylic acid I was definitely more inclined to try it out! I want to add that some people's skin does not react well to salicylic acid, but for my skin type it works wonders. This concealer covers well, does not break me out or contribute to any type of oil, and I've noticed that it does sometimes help with acne, so depending on what type of acne you have it can possibly improve it but it will definitely not make it worse. I will say that if you have dry skin this may not be the one for you due to the salicylic acid it contains. I wear the shade light-medium and it covers beautifully! If you are looking for a full coverage concealer though this will not be for you as it does not have that kind of power, and be careful with this product around the eye area due to the salicylic acid. I have repurchased this 2 already (it lasts a ridiculously long time) and will continue repurchasing this product! Great job Almay :)

(*** Read full review ***) I absolutely love this stuff. Have been using it for 2+ years now, and I find that when I take a break from it (either not wearing makeup for a bit or trying other products out), I actually break out. HOWEVER - this is only the case for the light shade. This summer when I started getting tan, I went down to the Fair/Medium shade, and I broke out like crazy; I have a history of getting breakouts, but I'm always able to figure out what caused it (ex. Change in diet, stress, lack of sleep, etc). However, nothing changed in my routine other than switching to the darker shade. In addition to this, the breakout that I got was AWFUL. And I never break out like that from a change in lifestyle - it's always due to a change in face products. Not sure what they add to the Light/Medium shade that they don't add to the Light shade, but my skin also felt caked up and looked oilier than it looks with the Light shade. This product is fabulous for my fair-skinned ladies, but anyone who has a tan, beware!!!
