MAC Pro Longwear Concealer Review

I was a bit hesitant at first with trying this concealer as i have VERY dark and puffy under eye circles and i was scared that it would crease as many concealers i have used in the past have creased. However after purchasing this from the mac website through you shop for only around $23NZD (excl shipping) i was highly impressed.

It is easy to apply and i used a small concealer brush to blend it evenly under my eyes. You don't always need a setting powder because this concealer is self setting and mattifies by itself. It is also very long lasting.

Although, one thing i don't like is that the pump gives way more product than needed. But overall it concealed my dark circles way better than other concealers. I recommend this product for anyone with dark under eye circles, needing medium to flu coverage.

This is an excellent concealer and is worth all the rave it gets! It gives high coverage and covers any and all of my blemishes no matter how big or small. Staying power is also great and I find if I apply in the morning it lasts till the evening without touch-ups. Concealer creases reasonably easily on my skin and this is one of the concealers I've found creases the least which I'm stoked about. It's quite expensive which I would say is the only downside, but you only need the TINIEST amount so it will last you a very long time!

I have been wanting to try this for a long time-and Im not disappointed. The formula is gorgeous, extremely blendable and applies well. I use a NC15 as im very pale and use it for brightening my undereye rather than concealing spots per se, and love it. It blends beautifully, and definitely brightens up this area. I have HUGE problems with under eye circles and creasing, and this concealer really helps with those issues-although mine is so bad I use a couple other products to help. It lasts incredibly well, and the packaging is nice and not at all cheap feeling, however the pump is quite generous and you really need the smallest amount of product.

Holy grail concealer that I've been using for years! I have this in two shades - NW 25 for undereyes, and NC42 for blemishes! The concealer has a great consistency, its creamy and thick enough to make it stay in place! I also never have an issue with creasing.

The concealer is long lasting on its own, but setting powder always helps! Has great packaging but the only let down is the pump which squirts a little too much!

This is definitely the best concealer I have used. It goes in smoothly, and stays on longer than other concealers I have tried. The only issue for me is that quite a bit of concealer comes out of the pump and it feels like a waste of product. I now put it into a little jar and use it from that!

I feel like my opinion on this concealer is a bit redundant as it is just confirming what everyone else is saying...IT IS LIFE!

Slight exaggeration, maybe, but this stuff really has changed my life! It took me months to purchase this after it was first recommended to me. Rookie error.

This concealer has the fullest coverage and the BEST staying power, it does not budge! I use it in NW20 and it somehow works for both my under eyes, and blemishes, hurrah! It does crease a little under my eyes, but I am yet to find a concealer that doesn't.

I normally use my finger to tap in concealer, but to get the best finish with this particular one, I need to use a concealer brush (or in my case, the crease brush from Real Techniques).

Yes the pump pumps out way too much product - see my tip below on how I combat this. It certainly is not enough of a frustration to change my opinion on this concealer, I am a convert!

I purchased my first bottle 2months ago, use it about 3-4 times p/wk and it barely looks touched. A little goes such a long way, so I can foresee this lasting me a good year, such a great investment!

Another product that i had heard so much about. This product reputation meant i had high, high expectations for it, and because it is expensive, it had to be amazing to justify a price tag that big.

It comes in a tiny bottle, and i mean smaller than a mac lipstick. It comes in clear packaging, with a black pump like dispenser. Which is something i don't like about the product. I wish it had a wand because that is how i like applying concealer, but hey! I can't be too fussy about the design when the product is this good.

And when i say good, i mean good. I have it in the shade NC 35 (when my foundation shade is NC 42), and this colour seems to be a perfect match for my skin tone. The concealer is a quite thick, but spreads easily, and conceals everything. Darkness and pigmentation issues disappear. Plus i also use this over my eye-lid because it is an amazing eyes shadow primer, so you really do get some bang for your buck.

One negative is, i don't think it last for 15 hours. In all honesty, i have not worn in for 15 hours, but by the time i wash my makeup off (10 hours after putting it on), my concealer has definitely worn.

Love the formula but under my eyes I do find that it creases. A little goes a long way so despite its small size it is worthwhile. Always be careful with where you put it as it is very breakable.

I held off buying this for ages as I thought I couldn't justify the price for a little bottle of product. BUT I caved and purchased it after hearing so many rave reviews about it and after trying so many concealers that creased on me. This stuff is AMAZING. It doesn't crease and is the only concealer I have found that doesn't. Perfect for the under eye area and also to use as an eyelid primer.
