Advantages: Last for ages- value for money

Disadvantages: Doesn't sufficiently cover my dark circles.

I am a big fan of Mac products, and my make-up bag is full of their fantastic eye shadows, foundations, pencils and brushes, so thought I would give the concealer a go.

I didn't ask for a sample at the counter or to try it first, I just trusted that it would be good, asked the assistant for the correct colour for me (which she got spot-on straight away) and made my purchase.

Overall I am pretty pleased with the concealer, and it is excellent at covering any blemishes. However I do not find the coverage sufficient enough for my dark eye circles following a late night or bad night sleep. The product does give some coverage, and only a really tiny amount is needed (I have had my tube for nearly a year!), however, if I try to make a bit of a thicker application, I find it that after an hour or so it rather cakes into any fine line or dry skin that I have.

I would definitely recommend this product for blemishes, however, if I had tried the product first before I had bought it, I probably wouldn't have made my purchase and would have stuck with my usual YSL Touche Eclat. For people with out dark circles, it would probably be ideal and definitely worth the money.

Summary: Try before you buy!
