Review 1 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
-05.14.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
This is a very good product. It's crease resistant, long lasting, with good texture, a little goes a long way. Nothing bothers me. First I bought Porcelain I, but it was too light and pinky for me, although my skin is pale and most of concealers are dark for me, so I recommend this color for girls with very very light skin. I switched to Light Buff and it's perfect for me. Wish it had a little more coverage, but I suppose it would take away the wonderful light texture. Overall, I'm happy with this product.

Review 2 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
worth it
-05.13.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant, magical
was just "testing" things before a concert down the block, ended up dropping dough on this though. it'll take your face back to infant-status, radiantly well-rested, no dark circles.

Review 3 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
new formula! not as good!
-05.10.13
This was my favorite concealer for years, but when I recently bought a replacement, the packaging looked different (it doesn't look as pictured - it's now black and clear plastic). Unfortunately, I soon learned they changed the formula, too!
First of all, the same names of colors are used, but the colors are different - I bought the same color as always, and compared it to my old concealer and it was much lighter!
Even more importantly, the new concealer did something I've only ever seen drug store concealer do: it soaks into your skin and darkens. Perhaps this is why they lightened up the formula, but if you apply it thick enough that you can't see the bottom layer which soaks into the skin, then it is a much lighter color. I tested swatches of different thicknesses on my face, and the color changes by thickness (including within each swatch - the edges are a different color!). Unless you always apply the exact same thickness and apply it very evenly, this is not going to cut it. And if are an expert at applying to concealer, be sure to wait several minutes between applying the concealer and looking in the mirror to determine what shade matches your skin, as it will change as it absorbs!
Overall incredibly disappointed, and I wouldn't recommend this concealer to anyone, anymore!

Review 4 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Great product yet color doesn't work for me
-05.09.13
Quick Take: creamy, color correcting
This waterproof concealer is fabulous! My eyes water since I'm light sensitive, and it doesn't smear or look cakey. Unfortunately, Sephora doesn't carry all the colors so I'll have to find my color elsewhere. With luck, you'll find a match and love it!

Review 5 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Amazing!
-05.09.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant
Love this undereye concealer. Go a shade light and apply before the Teint Miracle foundation and it really brightens up the area without settling into fine lines.

Best concealer on the market
-04.17.13
After trying many different brands this concealer is the best with great coverage, minimizing creases, long lasting wear, and a little bit goes a long way. Won't be looking any further!

Review 8 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Top notch concealer
-04.15.13
Quick Take: great, well worth the price, excellent quality
Even though I already have concealer that I like and have used for years, it isn't waterproof. While I was vacationing and swimming, I thought I'd give this concealer a try. It is fantastic! The minute I tried it on, I could see an instant improvement. It matches my skin tone perfectly and blends well. Now I am completely hooked.

Review 10 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Great All-over Concealer
-04.14.13
Quick Take: color correcting
It usually doesn't crease and blends very well with my skin. I use it as an all-over concealer, not just for my eyes. It is a great eyeshadow primer, too, and it goes a long way so it's worth the price.

Review 11 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
works well….
-04.12.13
Quick Take: color correcting, crease resistant, slippery until set
with a note- I have oily skin, and I noticed that this product DID settle into creases, almost immediately, until I applied powder to set. I have to smooth, then immediately set. I like applying and smoothing this product with a concealer brush. After that, it stays put all day. It does not accentuate my eyelid crepiness (I'm 41). Note also-this is not a heavy-duty covering concealer. I would say medium. So if you have very dark circles to cover, this is not the product for you.

Review 13 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
great, but...
-04.06.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I actually really liked this concealer. Good coverage, good texture, long-lasting, and it didn't feel thick and oily like some concealers can. However, I ended up returning it, because the lightest color was still a tad too dark for my skin. Woe is me.

Review 14 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Underwhelmed
-04.05.13
I'm very disappointed because I read all of the other great reviews before buying this product. This doesn't work for me as an undereye concealer at all. It covers up blemishes fairly well, but it doesn't do a thing for my purple undereye circles. It actually does make them shiny, but that just draws attention. I would not buy this again.

Review 15 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
Effacernes Undereye Concealer
-04.02.13
This stuff is incredible. I frequently have dark circles under my eyes from a late night of studying - this concealer not only covers but hi-lites my eyes. Co-workers have commented that I never have dark circles - even when I'm exhausted. The key for me was to find a color that is a shade lighter than my natural skin tone as it helps with the hi-liting. Because it is waterproof it stays put. I do use an eye moisturizer and a primer underneath.

Review 16 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
actually provides coverage and brightening, lasts
-04.01.13
Quick Take: effective
I LOVE this product. I have tried every under eye cover up at all price points and this is by far the best. As it claims, it comes on thick to give you full coverage but without appearing cake-y. One trick I've found is to use an eye cream/moisturizer before applying this to prevent it from overdrying. It also makes the color match my skin better (concealer on dry skin looks darker and "painted on"). I also prefer this application to my other favorite undereye concealer, Laura Mercier (pot).

Review 19 for EFFACERNES - Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer
A makesup wardrobe staple!
-03.18.13
I use this as my daily concealer and it works like a charm. It is very smooth and stays put. It rarely creases (only does when I use too much). I've been using it for 3 years and have yet to find one that's better. My only reason for trying others is that I wish it provided a little bit more coverage. I have some very dark spots on my cheek that need a lot of pigment to disappear.
