Boots No.7 Blemish Concealer

What do you need from a great concealer? Something not too greasy, and not too chalky, that offers terrific coverage, yet doesn't sit on top of your skin, looking like poorly blended foundation. Ideally, also, something small, that can sit unobtrusively in your handbag, without screaming to the world 'YES, I TOO HAVE FLAWS!' Sadly, Boots no 7 concealer achieves almost none of these objectives. The concealer comes in a simple, slightly curvy silver metal tube. It looks very attractive, but it is rather thick - wider than many lipsticks, instead of the narrower, finer packaging chosen by many other retailers. Pop off the lid, and you see a thick stick of ...  Read the complete review

Another day, another voucher. No sooner do I get rid of one of Boot's No7 vouchers that another one appears in my hand from various members of my family who know that I find it hard to resist buying new make up! On this occasion I put my £5 voucher towards No7 Blemish concealer. This concealer comes in a stylish satin gold lipstick shaped packaging and the thing that I like most about it is that it is very discreet. It is very plain and simple packaging and certainly does not have "Blemish stick" written all over it like some other brands - do I really need to advertise that I've got a spot: No! The lid snaps on firmly and the twisting ...  Read the complete review

Boots No7 is a range I normally steer clear from with the exception of the protect and perfect range - as I feel that a lot of the stuff is overpriced for what you get. Having said that, with Boots ploughing out numerous £5 vouchers to entice me to try their range, I thought rather than splashing out on Ruby & Millie (again!) and getting disappointed, I would try a couple of things from the No7 range. I ended up with 3 vouchers, and used one on an eyelash curler (VERY good for £1!) and one on a nail polish (not bad although the colours are a bit dreary..), so decided to try out one of their blemish concealers on a whim as it would only be £2.50 with the ...  Read the complete review

Let me start off by saying that this is not really the type of product I would typically use..... with skin prone to break outs, I usually put my faith in a high end concealer (namely benefit bo-ing) rather than buying a mid range version such as this No7 quick cover up concealer. As many of the other reviewers on here, I bought this concealer purely because i had a £5 off No7 voucher, and wanted to use it without spending an unessecary large amount of extra cash. So I settled on the 'rather-expensive-for-this-range-at-full-price-if-you-ask-me' £7.30 for a lipstick sized stick, which, with my £5.00 off voucher brought the price down to a far more acceptable £2.30. ...  Read the complete review

With the latest in a long line of £5 off No7 vouchers from Boots I decided I should purchase something I actually needed and not just spend the voucher for the sake of it! I have no idea where my last concealer went, I know I hadn't used it up; it disappeared around New Year. I'm thinking I probably took it out New Years eve and left it somewhere so concealer was on my shopping list the last time I braved the wet and snow to venture into town. This is the concealer shown in the picture above, the only stick concealer by No7; its new name is actually Quick cover blemish stick.
