Great for setting my concealer or covering up blemishes, but coverage is very light...
I got one of these in “light” and one in “fair” because I've heard some rumors about ELF’s mineral foundations shades not matching their mineral concealers shades. I do have to say that the rumor is true. If your mineral foundation is in “fair”, get the mineral concealer in “light”. Should be the opposite, right? I mean we’re always told that the concealer should be one sha...read morede lighter than our foundation. So good to know! Thank being said, I love the texture of this concealer and find it very similar to ELF’d mineral foundation, actually, but it doesn't really cover up my dark under-eye circles… I use a bit of ELF’s “Studio HD Brightening Concealer” mixed with my “Lancôme Cache-Cernes”, which I have loved for years, and ELF’s mineral concealer as a setting powder. I would actually recommend this combination to anyone who has very noticeable dark circles under their eyes… If you already have a favorite concealer, just add a tiny little bit of ELF’s “HD Brightening Concealer” to it, and it really adds to the coverage and brightens that area… I think that this mineral concealer might possibly be good for someone with minor discoloration under their eyes because it would give you very light coverage, but if you need more coverage than you would have to combine it with another product. One of my friends actually uses ELF’s eye shadow primer in “Sheer” (the 1 dollar one) and the mineral concealer on top of that and finds it a perfect duo for her very unnoticeable dark circles. So keep in mind that the coverage is very light, but it does go on very smoothly and is hardly noticeable on your skin. And also, remember that when it comes to this particular product “fair” is darker than “light” and not the other way around.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Excellent product for the $$$$
Years ago, I fell in love with mineral makeup, when I first tried the more expensive "pioneer" if-you-will, mineral product of the industry I thought I would never use another makeup line again. Until I discovered this mineral line a number of years ago. Once I tried them I never went back. I use their mineral foundation, concealer, blush, and bronzer, and I'm constantly getting compliments on ...read morehow beautiful my skin is (even though I'm 40, and still struggle with acne. You just can't beat the price, especially when they have 50% sales! The secret is to use great makeup brushes (and keep them clean!) and be sure not to apply with a heavy hand.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Fantastic for the Price!
While I've used the more expensive mineral concealers, I have to give e.l.f. props - for $5, I would gladly use their mineral concealer over a more expensive brand, especially when I'm on a budget! Used in conjunction with their mineral foundation, I've found that the coverage is pretty decent. You can build up the coverage to your desired level, too - it works great covering my facial redness o...read moren the cheeks and forehead. While a lot of elf's products are hit or miss, I can honestly say that I am fairly impressed with their mineral concealer and would happily buy again. You get a decent amount of product for the price, as well.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

e.l.f. mineral concealer
I didn't mind this product at all especially for the price. It works well with the other mineral makeup I use. I guess it depends on my activities for the day or evening as to which product I would use.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Works as well if not better than pricier products
My sister uses the big brand name, expensive products, and my mother uses a fancy line of mineral makeup from a small boutique cosmetics company. Both have had very good luck with mineral makeups over the past two years (better complexions, flawless coverage, etc), so when this brand introduced its own line of mineral products, I had to try it. I'm a fan of many of the company's other products, so...read more I knew it was worth a shot. I got the "kit" with the blush, foundation, bronzer and shimmer highlighter in addition to the concealer. It's all great, but the concealer is my favorite product. It's got amazing coverage and great texture! Often, I just dot it on the redness around my nose with the tip of a finger and/or sweep it across my forehead and chin with a fluffy brush, and I'm good to go! I don't even need the foundation! I've gotten compliments and questions ("How come your skin looks so even when you aren't even wearing any makeup? " was my favorite!) about my appearance on a regular basis since I began using it. Another plus, which may be true of mineral products in general is that, even after a late night, I don't come home with my face feeling tight or heavy or "gloppy" like I used to when I used conventional concealers and foundations. It also doesn't seem to migrate or "settle" unflatteringly into facial creases or under the eyes like some other products (you know, when you come home to find extra makeup lodged around the corners of your mouth...). And it doesn't require much to wash it off, I just use my regular facial cleanser and, unless I've also had mascara on, it's just like I was never wearing makeup in the first place. If you have yet to try mineral makeup, I'd highly recommend trying this, you can't beat the price!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 7 people said helpful

pretty small, not the best
I first tried some of my freind's mineral makeup she got from costco... but then I saw this stuff for $5 and thought I'd try it out. It's still better than the non-mineral powder I'd used, but I the costco concealer deffinitely gave better coverage and hid the flaws... this stuff improves texture similarly, though. It's also a pretty darn small size.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful
