TERRIBLE!
Date:May 13, 2013
"This product didn't work when it came to me the first time. They sent me a second one. It doesn't work either! Very bad product! No wonder they are on sale. They are DRIED UP! I couldn't get the product to come out no matter WHAT I tried!"

"I recently purchased two of these in light and illuminating pearl. The coverage was less the minimum, and did not brighten my eyes or conceal."

Disappointed
Date:May 10, 2013
"I got this after reading and taking into consideration both the good and bad reviews. Unfortunately, the bad reviews were right on with this one. It would have good coverage IF it didn't dry too fast to blend most of the time and end up looking dry and flakey. I've tried a few attempts and it just isn't worth it to me. I shouldn't have to have multiple trial runs with a product just to figure out its quirks so it works for me. Sorry, Avon. Definitely not one of your best products."

Flaky, gunky mess
Date:May 7, 2013
"I had high hopes for this product, because the reviews I read were great. I bought this in 3 different shades, and they all do the same thing (so, it's not like I just got a bad one). First of all, the first time i opened it, I feel like I had to twist it for 5 minutes to get any product to come out at all, then all of a sudden, it was pouring out. Once I got that under control, and actually went to apply the product, it just flaked up under my eye, and looked like day-old, been crying all night foundation. The more I tried to blend, the worse it would flake, until, eventually, it all just wiped off...except for the hard to remove clumps it left behind. I keep trying it every day, in different ways, hoping for a different outcome, but, no such luck. I love Avon makeup, but, ladies, don't waste your money on this one."

great but not enough

"This is an excellent product, but not enough in small tube. By time you get it to come out send like you waste some. But I love how it feels and works."

Not Bad
Date:May 4, 2013
"I like this product. I bought it in the light color. It is quite sheer and definitely brightens that under eye area. The only thing I find odd about it is that it doesn't always seem to blend well with my foundation. Has a tendency to cake or flake up instead of blending seamlessly. And this was the case with trying it with several different foundations. Other than that, if you need light coverage for slight undereye circles I'd say give it a shot. The price is right."

Clumpy Concealer
Date:May 1, 2013
"When I used this concealer it would clump up and I was not able to apply foundation afterwards because it would just peel off. The click stick is inconsistent in delivering a substantial amount of product. Sometimes it would take six rotating clicks and other times it would take up to 12. The amount of concealer that comes packaged does not last you very long either."

Do not like
Date:April 20, 2013
"I don't like this concealer. It doesn't cover evenly and it has a shimmer to it that I don't like. I ordered it online or I would return it but I figure the shipping would be too much."

Not Usable
Date:April 10, 2013
"I love most Avon products. This one goes on flaky/chunky. Over my foundation, it gooped up and took off my base. I tried wearing in under all other products and it still goes on gritty. I find it hard to believe anyone had any success with this concealer. It didn't just not live up to it's claims, this products is not usable."

not for mature skin
Date:April 1, 2013
"love the packaging but the product is too drying for mature skin. the fair shade is super sheer so no coverage there. I was interested in using as a highlighter so I bought both the fair and the illuminating shades to try. both could be used as highlighters but the formula goes in every wrinkle and crease and is drying and cakey looking. Maybe younger skin would like this, just remember that the light shades are super sheer so there is no coverage, only highlighting with a bit of sparkle."

Awesome under eye brightening effect
Date:March 20, 2013
"I have ALWAYS had dark bags under my eyes, i get it from my father. To cover them, i always just used extra foundation in that area. but when i used this brightening concealer stick, it actually lightened the area, totally eliminating the darkness and it almost seems to reflect light in a special kind of way...its hard to describe. but i noticed an IMMEDIATE difference!! I am going to be using this specific product for life! love it! If someone has dark bags under their eyes, they really need to get this!"

Pointless

"Complete wast of money, does absolutely nothing as far as I can tell, calling it a concealer is laughable as it conceals nothing. Pointless product."

Best Concealer
Date:January 19, 2013
"I wanted to try a new type of concealer. And let me tell you, even without the sale, this is worth the money invested. I have been buying all Avon Make-up now. It lasts longer, and I don't feel that cake on feeling with the other brands of make-up. And always stock up when its on sale."

Possibly Worst Concealer I've Ever Tried
Date:January 12, 2013
"I have never before felt compelled to write a review of a makeup purchase that I have made, but I must with this. This concealer is completely unusable. It is impossible to put on without it balling up and wiping everything off. The formula is made to dry quickly, so that there is no time to blend. If you try to layer it on (as you must, because it is not opaque enough to truly conceal on its own) then it wipes off the layer underneath and ends up a streaky, balled up mess. Also, this is far too shimmery to be of use for anything but under eye AND under another concealer, but the formula won't let you layer like that either. I tried and tried to find a way to use this, but it's gone in the garbage. It is quite possibly the worst concealer I've ever had the misfortune to try."
