I brought this off of ebay, full sized and brand new for just £5.97 and my God, was this a bargain! I have been looking for a concealer for ages to cover up my spots and scars; this is because I don't like noticable foundation and most full coverage foundations are detectable. When I read reviews on this product I just knew that I had to try it out however, it was always too expensive for me. So after looking on ebay and seeing the price, I soon purchased this. Well ladies, it covers my spots and it even conceals my scars - perfect! It doesn't look cakey and it is undectable. The only problem I have is that it does take a while to 'set' and if you touch it, it will come off. Yet this stops after it's 'set' which takes around 20-30 minutes.

Design:
I was really really let down by the design of this. I have heard no end of compliments towards Benefit for their packaging yet I must say, the good design does end with the outer packaging and the box. Once I removed this from the box I was very disappointed and it looked tacky and like it would break any minute. Also, I prefer liquid concealers, but this one isn't hard to apply/work with. It is small but I like that as it fits in my bag easily.

Price:
Yes it's expensive and I would recommend looking around before you buy it from Benefit. But is it worth it? Yes. I would pay full price for this.

i used to buy the ysl touche eclat as im very dark under the eyes but found it extremely pricey £25 i discovered this concealor which covers my black eyes no problem i usually go for shade 2 and put it on with a brush it lasts ages ( i use it every day and it does me for about 8 months which is very good value roughly £12 the best concealor i would say on the market its small enough to fit into your bag and has a little mirror in the lid for touching up

great item at a great price

If im honest, I wasnt expecting this product to last all day like it did. It easily covered my blemishes without going cakey over them, which surprised me with a cream product like this.
Luckily, shade 01 matched my skin very well, im not sure if only 3 different shades would cover all skin tones, mixing these concealers would get pretty pricey (I believe I paid £12 but they retail for over £15)
I havnt tried this under my eyes and am unlikley to, im fairly certain it would crease and look cakey, I much prefer using a liquid.
Like all Benefit products, this had cute packaging. As its new at the moment, it can be a bit of a pain to get into.
I wouldn't reccomend this to someone has dry skin, im sure it would have the potential to flake. However, on my fairly oily skin it stays put all day.
A great product from Benefit.

The perfect concealer is something every girl lusts for, but is very hard to find. For me personally this is my dream concealer!

I came across this product about a year ago after finally giving in to the price (a bit hefty, but it is benefit, what do you expect?). Being as pale as i am, i was put off by the fact they only had 3 shades as i struggle to find products pale enough when the brand has lots of shades! But by some miracle, shade 1 suits me perfectly.

It has quite a heavy consistancy, and i know a lot of bloggers dislike it for this, but once on the skin it seems to melt in, leaving it smooth and not cakey.

As with all benefit products it's cutely packaged and a good size for your makeup bag.

and finally, it lasts. Like really lasts! I've only ever perchased one of these and it's lasted me almost a year. So baring this in mind, the price isn't so scary to me any more.

Would deffinately recommend this to anyone!

This is a fantastic concealer which gives great coverage. I have bad acne scarring and this covers it up a treat. It is useful for covering up blemishes, acne scarring and pigmentation. I have this product in 01 and apply it with my fingers.

The coverage is heavy but it doesn't look cakey or powdery. The formula is creamy enough to use on under eye bags without looking cracked. It blends in well with foundation and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb - some concealers seem to attract more attention to your problem area instead of hiding it! It stays on all day unlike many other concealers (I personally prefer solid concealers as opposed to liquid for staying power)

The concealer comes in a solid form and in cute packaging. I find that this concealers lasts a long while - it takes ages to hit pan.

There a couple of disadvantages to this concealer. First of all this concealer is good but you can get concealers which give just as good results for less money such as MACs studio concealer. This is a little pricey. The colour range is limited too with only 3 colours in the range - it is harder to find one that matches your skin well.

I really like this product.

Pros
. Lasts ALL day, never revealing those dark bags I carry around :)
. Blends well with whatever foundation I choose to use
. Suitable for covering redness and other blemishes too
. Easy to apply with fingers or a brush

Cons
. Available in three colours, which I find are either too light or too dark. I use the medium colour, but I find that it's a little bit too dark. I looked at the fair colour and it was too light so I'm stuck with the slightly dark one.

Despite the lack of colour/skin matching (it's probably just my odd skin) I would definately recommend this product and suggest just blending really well because this product doesn't shift and makes my face look so refreshed.

Would repurchase as soon as I run out :)

After having a super free makeover at Benefit, Farnham, Surrey, I purchased
Bo-ing. It is a must-have for covering scars and concealing those ackward spots. though, it is a bit pricy at over £15, it is worth the expense, to cover up all manner of sins!

Warning! Keep it hidden from teenagers, as it goes on regular walkabouts!

This works really well on dark circles under the eyes and also on patches of high colour eg cheeks and the occasional blemish.
I use this regularly and it lasts well, so although it seems pricey, it does represent good value in the long run. It goes on better when it is slightly warm otherwise it can seem a bit 'stiff'. I keep mine in the airing cupboard which is warm without being too hot.

I have very very dark circles under my eyes and I think I have used just about every concealer there is on the market! This is the best- no more panda eyes when I wear this! My tip to get the best out of the product and to make it last longer is to apply it when it is warm and a little soft. Definately recommended to everyone who needs a comprehensive concealer.

I have been using this "little pot of magic" for the last 18 months & now wouldnt buy any other concealer, great for redness, blemishes,under eyes shadows & can be used on its own for light cover during the day.
Lasts for ages cos you only need a tiny amount to do the job.
Overall a fab wee product

This concealer does exactly what it says! It is 'industrial strength' and covers spots, blemishes, dark circles. You can use this alone for a 'no makeup' look or under foundation for a flawless finish. It is better applied with a brush as this gives professional results and excellent blending. I would like it to be slightly cheaper ..... wouldnt we all but it is quite long lasting so that makes up for it!

Buy it!

I really like this product. It isn't too heavy on the skin and it covers blotches, blemishes and under eyebags effectively so you can skip the foundation if you put this only where you need. I recommend using a brush for application as it can be a little too thick if you use your fingers (especially index finger) so it's not quite as convenient as other concealers but the results are well worth it. Only fault is I wish that it was slightly longer lasting, I have oily skin and it seems to disappear after a few hours but this could just be me.

This product is fab. Its designed to work on the eye area and its great for those under eye bags or darkness that we all get from time to time. I also use it though on any blemishes/imperfections on my face as it works great as a concealer and its handy to have a product that does more than one thing. I have really pale skin and find the lightest version of this to be perfect.

This product is brilliant-an essential in my handbag! Its great for covering dark circles under you eyes or any imperfections you have. It's good value for money and lasts long as you don't need to use that much of it to do the job! I find Benefit products really reliable and is a brand i would really recommend.

This product is amazing and works as well as other more expensive brands like YSL's touche eclat. Really good coverage, and when used properly doesnt leave any flakey orange bits behind!

Price is good, as the product last for ages! I've had mine for over 6 months now, use it almost daily and theres still quite a bit left!

Boi-ing comes in 3 tones to suit either fair, medium or dark skin, I use 1 which is for fair skin.

Not only is Boi-ing a fabulous concealer but it really brightens up the eye area, especially first thing in the morning. I apply Boi-ing with my fingertips blending gently above (for extra brightening) and below the eye area and over any blemishes on my face and leaves me looking more awake even at 6.30am lol.

This is great a great product to carry around day and night it will make those eyes look much brighter in your time of need!

I bought mine for £15 in John Lewis and its lasts for months so worth every penny!
