The formula was creamy and went on easily, which is always a good sign.
But it also blended out smoothly and gave me amazing coverage with just a few dots.
However, upon blending it out, it proved to be the perfect balance of color-correcting and brightening hues.

Instead, my undereyes appeared smooth and hydrated.

It also has caffeine, vitamin E, and glycerin to keep the undereye area calm and puff-free.
I would definitely use this again, saysGlamourcontributorCharlotte Twine.

I love using this concealer when Im looking particularly fatigued and need a little pick-me-up.
I love pairing it under its counterpart concealer for a natural-looking, brighter finish.
I like the consistency because its actually extremely lightweight.

It has a thick consistency, but it blends so effortlessly and doesnt leave me cakey or patchey.
I use a ton of skin care products underneath my makeup, and this concealer never pills.

I dont even have to wear a setting powder, saysGlamours Calle.

ForGlamourcontributorSarah Cassuto, this concealer did a great job of covering the purple discoloration under her eyes.
It has a thicker consistency, which means a little goes a long way.
I used a brush to apply the product, which worked well.
If you are looking for a high-coverage concealer to brighten under your eyes, I definitely recommend this product.
One caveat is that you do have to take your time with the system for the first few times.
Your dark circles will say bye-bye, I promise, says Twine.
