Recently purchased this concealer for around $14.00 as I was in need of a new one. I really like the packaging which is like lipstick packaging enabling easy application of the concealer. The concealer glides on nicely and has a thick creamy consistency. You don't need to use a lot otherwise it can get quite cakey. The concealer hides blemishes well and covers dark under eye circles. The only downside is that throughout the day the concealer creases under my eyes, however the concealer does the job and it's affordable so I would probably repurchase.

I am a little undecided about this concealer. I actually brought it after reading the reviews on here. But for me, I found it underperformed next to some of the other concealers I've used. It was still perfectly functional however.
This is a stick concealer, which makes it ideal for on the go application. Packaging wise, it's packed like a lipstick with a see-through top.
The coverage it provides isn't thin as such, but is quite light for how thick it is. Under foundation and for top ups, it does the job. But it does have a bit of drag, so some people may not find it that great for undereye concealing.
In terms of how well it hid imperfections, it is buildable, so you could certainly cover imperfections, but you might have to work with the product to achieve that.
All in all, it did the job, it was just a little lighter than I personally like.
Tips: Test it instore first to see if it works for you.
I rediscovered this classic a few years ago when I was suffering from horrible, hormonal breakouts. I had used it in my teens and nothing much has changed about this concealer (when I purchased it, it was still in the same old packaging with the same branding as way back when) It comes in a lipstick bullet, making it easy to use. You can just apply straight to the areas needed but baring in mind it is primarily for blemishes i.e. spots, it's best to apply to a clean finger or concealer brush, then your face.
I was lucky enough to find the exact shade for my skin tone but if buying in NZ retail outlets the shades are very limited (there is more choice available online) It has a very creamy consistency making it easy to blend and well, hide the blemish. I found it kept spots well covered all day.
I don't recommend it for under eyes at it is too heavy and sit in creases and fine lines, drawing more attention to the area. As a spot concealer though this does the job brilliantly and I would definitely use it again for that purpose if I ever need it again.
When I first bought this I was expecting a smooth stick that would be easily applied to the face - and boy was I wrong... The stick broke after a few times of usage, and has a strong chemical smell that was very off putting. After putting the broken conceal into a new pot, I did find that the concealer worked well and was reasonably easy to blend in.
I've been using this for years. The colour is a great match for my skin and love the fact it has a creamy formula. Rimmell has always been a reliable brand for me. Easy and compact wind up lipstick concept. Great thing is you cam get every last bit out and is affordable.
Tips: Only need small amount
I actually still have this product after buying it years and years ago. I’m always on the hunt for something that claims to conceal my dark under eyes. For a while, it was the only concealer I had, so I used it. This was back when I didn’t buy a lot of makeup, and just used what I had. I won’t use it anymore and should probably just chuck it out. Ive got quite dry skin, and the main issue for which I use concealer is dark purple under eyes. I do enjoy that it’s like a lipstick, so easy to apply and it just rolls up and down. You can blend it with your fingers or a sponge and it does spread out. I thought I matched the colour pretty well but it does require me to blend outward a lot in order to look natural…ish. My main problems with this product are that it gets caked into fine lines, quite obviously, and that it doesn’t really stay in place. If I were to use setting powders it looks dry and even then it still moves around. So not a big fan, but it is a great concept and may work better for people with different skin types and concerns.
I've had this concealer for a while now, it was the first concealer I have owned! because I was really new to make-up, I bought a lighter shade than I should, so whenever I apply it, it really shows under my eyes the brightness, but it also really nicely covers my dark under eyes. It does make me look tanner than I am which I like, I wish it came in a liquid form, but it's awesome that it can be used like a lighter lip shade when applying lipstick it is a very innovative product.
I do think the concealer is very hard to blend in, I guess that's why I slightly prefer liquid form now.
It’s ok. It doesn’t really cover my blemishes, but underneath a good foundation it does make a little difference. Not drying at all. And budget friendly.
I quite like Rimmel products, they are usually well priced and great quality. I suffer from breakouts and have used numerous blemish sticks over the years. I saw this on sale at Farmers for only $10 so I snapped it up.
It comes in a lipstick bullet so is super easy and mess free to apply. I got the shade ivory which was a perfect match for under my BB cream.
I dab a tiny amount on any spots then I use the blunt edge on my RT sponge and gently blend it in. It covers spots really well and my BB cream sits well over top. Just make sure you select the correct shade.
Very affordable and does what it should. What's not to love!
This didn't work for me at all- caked into fine lines, greasy so smeared my mascara, migrated. Ugh. Never again.
