Great dupe for Benefits 'Erase Paste'.

I really wasn't expecting to like this. I assumed it would be sheer and thin and super liquidy but I was completely wrong.

The formula is really nice and thick - yet easy to apply. It didn't streak or clump up, nor does it smear or run down your face. This reminds me heaps of Benefits Erase Paste (which is my fave concealer ever). Like the Erase Paste, this is creamy, super pigmented and covers up under eye circles and blemishes. However, unlike Erase Paste, this comes in a multitude of shades and finding the correct shade is super easy as it tells you on the packaging what skin type it's suited for. For example, I am the shade 'sand' in this and it said "for fair to medium skin with yellow undertones". It is honestly a perfect match for my skin.

I was worried that this would be drying or too greasy even though it has no oil in it, but it really isn't. On my skin it leaves a gorgeous dewy finish and blends into my foundation perfectly.

For me this is the ultimate under eye concealer. I really, really love my Erase Paste but will keep it for special occasions as it's really pricey. I've already put this in my shopping basket to repurchase. This is definitely my fave daily concealer and it's super, super cheap.

Tips: Amazing - try it!!! If you are looking for a good coverage concealer that doesn't feel heavy then this is amazing. Honestly this is so much like Erase Paste but without the hefty price tag.

Ok not great

I find this better than the under eye concealer by elf in terms of coverage but find it still looks dry and settles into fine lines (it looks great when first applied but a little while after doesn't look as great).

The coverage is still not fantastic for a concealer and my dark circles still show through but for redness this works pretty well.

I won't repurchase as am on the hunt for a better dark under-eye circle concealer. Wouldn't recommend for under eye circles but if you are only after something to cover redness (not breakouts) but general light redness, then this might be okay considering its super cheap price tag.

HOLY GRAIL

This is absolutely my holy grail concealer. I have this in the shade porcelain and it's the perfect light yellow toned concealer for brightening my under eye. It's thick but not too thick, nice and creamy and a dream to blend. It has really great coverage, if my dark circles aren't too shabby that day this will cover them up perfectly well. I don't think I will ever use another under eye concealer again (okay I lie because lets be real, I'm a makeup junkie) but seriously this is amazing, I highly suggest trying it - it's only a few dollars and sooo worth it!!

Tips: I love to blend this with my Real Techniques duo fibre crease brush from the Limited Edition duo fibre set. I also love to set this with the yellow square from the ELF tone correcting powder in cool. -Crease free!!

Goes on thick and creamy but doesn't wear well

I have a tube of this in the shade sand. I'm not sure why I have this shade instead of the lightest one. This is quite yellow toned on me and is a bit too dark as well.

You get so much concealer in this tube. 20mls is heaps especially considering that I have an elf foundation which I think has less product than this in it! If I did love this, it would have been one of the best bargains out there. This comes in a black squeeze tube, pretty similar looking to a foundation really.

This is quite a thick concealer and you only need a tiny amount of it as it is also quite pigmented and not sheer at all. I've only used this under my eyes. Even though it is a but dark, I feel like it still covers my darkness without looking too crazy. I love how this looks when I first apply it. Sadly though, after just a couple of hours, my under eye area looks creased and cakey. I don't powder it, maybe this would help. I don't think I even own any powders anymore to try. My skin is just too dry and any powder I try cakes up anyway.

I think maybe this would work for you if you have more normal skin. Or even just on blemishes. I think it's worth trying out since it is so cheap so I don't regret buying it at all. I just won't use this one again at all and can't recommend if you have dry skin.

Pretty good, but not spectacular!

I've been using this concealer for a few weeks now, and I must say - it's pretty good value for money! I have very dry cheeks, large pores across my nose and a slightly oily forehead, so finding a concealer that can even out my skin AND stay on all day has always been a mission!

On the whole, the e.l.f. concealer is really nice - it has a smooth, creamy consistency and doesn't go cakey when it's built up which I love! It's also really easy to apply and blend, plus it stays on my skin all day even in the heat or on a cold windy day.

It doesn't give anywhere near the same full coverage as my Thin Lizzy concealer though which is a shame. Somehow I don't think it would be able to cover tattoos effectively if my wee freckles still show through!

I also have trouble finding the right shade for my skin in the e.l.f. line - at the moment I'm using Nude which is ALMOST perfect but still slightly too pink for my yellow undertones.

Overall though it's great value for money - 20mL for such a low price!!! I'd definitely recommend it to a friend on a budget. While it's not my holy grail concealer, it is the only one I'll buy for "in the meantime" when I run out of my Thin Lizzy :)

Yup but only sparingly and I make sure it's well blended otherwise it looks cakey :) I find it covers up the grey tones I have under my eyes better than the e.l.f. Maximum Coverage concealer!

Do you use the thin lizzy concealer under your eyes?

Seriously love.

I actually seriously love this concealer, thinks it has awesome coverage, really lives up to it's name, which confused me to read the two reviews underneath me! This concealer goes on super smooth and covers up my blemishes well, and is great at help lightening my under eye circles. This has already become my new favourite concealer.

Great For Foundation

Yet again, another good old Iherb purchase, Comes in a little handy squeezable black tube.

I have this in beige colour, which has cool/pink undertones. It has a thick creamy texture, blends out quite well and is build able if need be.

I found it covers well, but not perfect, after a few hours, it built up and sat in my under eye wrinkles, because it never dries completely it stays shiny,

Great for minimal to good coverage but wouldn't recommend if you were wanting severe coverage.

I've used it as a foundation and I think its perfect for that, it smooths out beautifully and gives even coverage, with or without a primer. Just apply a little setting powder over the top to set it.

Can't go wrong

For the price of this I was a little worried at how it would work. I got it from beautyjoint and was suprised at the size of it when it arrived. It is a decent sized tube! And the product is awesome, some days I don't even need to use foundation with it which is amazing with my acne. Love it!

E.L.F concealer

I really loved the fact that it was a decent sized tube for $10. I purchased it in Nude but could have a gone a shade lighter. I used it for 3 days and then started noticing I was getting little pimples around my eyes and chin where I had been using it. So I have stopped using it to see if that what was actually causing it. I'm hoping not because I really like the consistency and also the coverage.

Tips: Just be weary when using it doesnt cause breakouts

Another holy grail

This is seriously my go to concealer. It's quite a smooth consistency and goes on fairly full coverage when used with a brush. I don't get a lot of creasing with it and I can put it over breakouts and it doesn't seem to give it that "clogged" look - I'm not convinced it has all day staying power however, it's good for day to day use
