What you thought: "Each time I used it the Active Light shifted, settled in fine lines and did nothing but draw attention to this area -- not in a good way. I thought I may have been using it incorrectly so I ... had [a Jane Iredale representative] apply it ... She stated to remember 'less is more,' and when she finished it did look wonderful. However, once again within hours after [her] application ... it not only settled into fine lines and called attention to this area but seemed to shift and collect in large almost lumps/lines." -- Isobelle, TotalBeauty.com member

Concealer is the one makeup product I never leave the house without, so I was relieved my favorite was not listed here!

I can gladly ignore most of the concealers listed. There is hope for the Physician's Formula version, however; it works--once you truly learn how to work WITH it!

Good to know. I'm very picky about concealers, so it's nice to know why these ones are ineffective.

for me I have to distinguish concealers between those that are more suited for under the eyes versus those that lend themselves to camouflaging spots or discoloration on the face. Even though I have super oily skin, I always add a good eye cream prior to applying concealer and allow it to absorb while I apply my makeup. If I have a day where I find I need extra coverage under my eyes, I first dab eye primer under my eyes (Laura Mercier) then add a pink toned concealer (not brightener) Benefit Erase Paste, then add a little concealer that is more viscous in a shade lighter than my skin tone; Lumi or Maybelline Age Rewind. This gives me excellent coverage and doesn't look dried or settle in my fine lines. I also am careful to never get face primer under my eyes otherwise my concealer balls up or looks too thick. Hope some of these tricks help some of you.
