Wateproof Perfection!
I have so many concealers from so many companies that I could probably pay off our mortgage if I sold them. This is exceptional when it comes to creaseless, ceaseless concealing, even in heat, humidity, and water. It works well under my eyes and doesn't settle into any fine lines. It disguises any blemishes and/or discolorations for endless hours. I highly recommend it!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 11 of 12 people said helpful

LANCOME EFFACERNES WATERPROOF PROTECTIVE UNDEREYE CONCEALER
Great product which actually does the work all concealers are supposed to do - however, not all of them work on dark under eyes, shadows around the nose, below the lower lip, on red spots, pimples - you name it. My skin's dry but this one doesn't make it dryer, yet it has a great concealing power. And it stays long. A shop assistant recommended covering it with foundation but I always wear the con...read morecealer on top of everything else - this makes it most effective for me. I would say this is one of, if not THEE best concealer I have ever used. And let me tell you, I have tried A LOT of concealers! I was born with hereditary dark circles, puffiness, and thin under-eye skin. They are the kind of circles that if I don't cover them, people are asking me if I'm ok all day. They are quite embarrassing. But this product has by far out-shined the rest. The color "Light Buff" works very well on my NC15 skin tone. It is a bit darker/more yellow than my actual skin, but over the purpleness of my under-eye area it looks like a perfect match. It starts out very creamy/liquidy to blend out, but then after it sits for a bit it sets, which I LOVE. Even though I tend to have dry skin, it is not overly drying. It is just dry enough to stay in place, unlike some of those cream concealers that just move/slide all over the place until they are rubbed off by the end of the day. The coverage is also very build-able. Lay down a layer, let it dry/set, and then put another layer on if you need it. I don't think they have the most amazing shade range, so that may be the only difficulty I see some people having. But besides that, if you are on the fence about this product, JUST TRY IT! Or get a sample if you can. Because it has definitely been a Holy Grail product for me! Expensive, but definitely worth every penny. I bought this about a month ago and I couldn't be happier. I was in search of a concealer to hide this horrible discoloration under my right eye. People sometimes think its a black eye on bad days and running eyeliner or mascara on good days. I had been using the time balm concealer or kat Von d tatoo concealer. It never really hid it, just made it lighter. I came to grips that I would just have to live with it. After returning some Christmas sweaters :), I found myself at the lancome counter, drooling over mascara and eye palettes. The girl at the counter was super nice and she suggested I try this under-eye concealer. She kept talking about how it was waterproof and that would make all the difference for the coverage I was looking for. She was absolutely right. You cannot see my 'black eye' at all now. It gives me a completely different (fresher) look. Now i can smudge my eyeliner uner my lower lash line and not look like i've had a rough night. This was my first lancome purchase besides bi-facil. Somehow I thought it was too old lady and stuffy for my tastes. I guess I made up reasons because it seemed to high end. Well now I know why people love this brand. I ordered the primer and a foundation since. I have high hopes for these two.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 23 of 24 people said helpful

My favourite!
Definitely my favourite concealer of all times. I've been using this for about 8 years and love it! Every once in a blue moon, I'll try something else just out of curiosity or because someone will rave about it, but I always go back to this one. My skin tone is fair (with yellow undertones) and I use "Clair II". Definitely water proof, doesn't crease (I never go all the way up to my lower lash ...read moreline though), and doesn't oxidise, so it doesn't turn yellow on you at the end of the day... Buildable and can be set with any kind of powder.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 6 people said helpful
