Yeah, I bought this concealer because I have poisoned by so many positive review from many cosmetic stores. For your information, positive feedback from random customer very important "for me" to determine the product worth to buy or not.

This moisturizing crease-control concealer with vitamin E and apple seed extract hides dark circles and diffuses fine lines for a silky smooth, ultra-natural look. Available in three shades, it’s proven to keep skin hydrated for six hours and won’t cake, crease, or settle. "

Of course with all those claims, it's made me feel"oh my,... This is what I need".. Almost every day I used this product to cover some "incorrect" spot on my face, especially under my eyes and some dark spot.

First time I try the product have a creamy texture and I can feel it's really rich with moisturizer..

So, here my opinion after 2months use this product,

Pro: This product really works well as they claim... so I really recommend this product. The smooth and silky result is the greatest thing that you hardly get from another brand.. Beside of that, this is really moisturing your skin, so it's good... I feel like a teen again, hahaha..

The other thing that I like about this product is, the packaging very cute and easy to use, so it won't take time when I apply to the spot I need...

For staying power, it didn't run at all... So it's great

Parabens free, that's what I like^^

I try to use this to hide my acne dark spot, but it doesn't cover at all, so I won't recommend this for your acne dark spot ^o~.

So, overall I like this product.. but if you ask me would i repurchase? Hmm.. maybe yes, but not really sure... I'm easy to get influence from another brand, lol...
