Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I don't know if I would wear this alone, but under my other concealers this is amazing! I was hoping it would help prevent my concealers from creasing, and it certainly does prevent it from settling into the fine lines under my eyes! Alone, I'm not sure I would get the amount of coverage I like under my eyes. But, since I bought this to help my other concealer, it does exactly what I'd hoped!

The BEST Concealer Ever!
-06.16.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I bought this concealer weeks ago and it goes on so smoothly, my biggest mistake was to purchase it in the medium color. I thought I would go with my medium skin, so if you have light medium skin be aware that the medium is a little darker than regular mediums and it beats the purpose of hiding dark circles. Nex time I will get it in light. But over all its great, it does everything it says it does.

Other concealers have failed
-06.15.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant, color correcting
I have tried other concealers and had problems with them being too dry and settling into the fine lines around my eyes. I am 58 years old and am so please to have found Benefiit. The concealer stick has a moisturizer around it and it blends beautifully onto my face. I do not have large issues with under eye darkness. I just need something to brighten and lift my eyes. This product works beautifully. I bought two...one to carry and one to leave at home.

This is hands down the best concealer I have ever used, no nasty and dry crusty spots plus its super lightweight

Not impressed
-06.13.13
Quick Take: creamy
After reading reviews, I was so excited to try this product. Unfortunately for me it didn't live up to its hype. It is creamy and hydrating but it creases. Not impressed.

Where have you been all my life?!
-06.12.13
No matter how many concealers I have tried that claim to be "crease proof" I've never really located one. Until now! My skin is so dry that no matter how creamy or hydrating a concealer was it would crease and settle into fine lines. I also have a scar under my left eye which causes anything and everything to settle. I wore this concealer for 10+ hours with no fading, and no creasing. I don't think I will ever buy another concealer! The only issue I have with it is that this concealer is so hydrating it starts to melt the mascara off my bottom lashes which smudges under my eyes.

Almost Perfect
-06.12.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I have serious dark circles (no puffiness) that I've had since I was a toddler, but I've only been on the hunt for the perfect concealer for about 10 years:) This one is soclose--it's a great texture and color match (light), but it just isn't enough coverage for me.

do not like this product
-06.12.13
I found this to be too greasy to be a concealer. The vitamin E part moisturizers but does not allow the cover up to stay put. It will be returned.

smooth coverage
-06.11.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy
This cover up goes on smooth and blends in really well. My only problem is that I end up with raccoon circles under my eyes by the end of the day where my eyeliner smudges into it (though that may be an eyeliner problem). Otherwise, it's been great! Covers my dark circles nicely.

Good Concealer
-06.09.13
After reading a bunch of positive reviews about its highly moisturizing benefit, I had to pick it up. Unfortunately, I did not find it to be extra moisturizing or creamier than other comparable brand concealers. It is a good concealer overall, but it wasn't anything I haven't tried before or particularly special.

The best concealer ever
-06.09.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant
This concealer is outstanding. I have dry skin and VERY dark circles which are even worse during allergy season. I have tried SO many concealers over the years and this is by far the best.

does the trick
-06.09.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant
this is my first concealer and I really like it as is just takes a few dabs and I can blend it in easily without pressing too hard. The sales person helped me pick a shade for me and I now use it every day.

Uh-mazing!
-06.09.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant, color correcting, brightening
I never write reviews but I saw some negative reviews prior to trying this product. As someone who is a product freak and has done make-up professionally, this is one of the best I have used- if not the best. I do have somewhat oily skin so I definitely need to dust a translucent powder over my foundation and concealer, but it covers and brightens without looking cakey or heavy. I simply apply it directly from the tube under my eyes and use a damp concealer brush to apply. Love, love, love!

Not for me!
-06.08.13
Quick Take: slimy, creases, no coverage
I am very pale and Benefit does not cater to very fair or very dark skin tones, they really only focus on medium beige skin tones. With that being said, I had seen this on You Tube and it looked really good, even on someone quite fair as I am so I decided to try it out for myself. It didn't cover anything for me. It highlighted my flaws and was quite slimy on my skin. I really thought I would love the moisture band in it, but it was just a greasy hot mess. I think I am done trying Benefit products...

Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant
The description of the product stays true to the actual product. It's very moisturizing compared to other concealers I've tried before. It's very smooth, not cakey at all.

Best undereye concealer ever!
-06.08.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant, color correcting, moisturizing
Fake Up concealer actually does what it promises. It hides dark circles without settling into creases or caking. It lightens & moisturizes the whole under eye area giving the skin a dewy look. I also use a bit at the top of my cheekbones as a highlighter.
If your under eye circles are dark like mine, they won't be totally hidden, but Fake Up does a better job of camouflaging them than anything I've ever used. (I'm 60+) Usually products I like get discontinued, so better buy this now :)

Not a full coverage concealer.
-06.08.13
Quick Take: creamy, greasy, sheer
Benefits stay don't stray is incredible so I decided to try this. I didn't care for it because the clear stuff on outside of the color is greasy/oily so it appears shiny.ir doesn't have full coverage either. The color did match my skin as I expected. I still have it 4 stars because its not a bad product just not what I was looking for.
