PacificaBeauty Blemish Banish Concealers, 0.22 Ounce

I have a used product! I paid for new. The packaging was opened and the product opened. This is unacceptable. Seller to avoid. Note : If I could have put a zero in the evaluation, I would have done it...

Creamy and goes on skin smooth. I have terrible dark under eye circles and this all but erased them!

I ended up finding the Pacifica brand as I began eliminating various chemicals from my personal care products. I was never one to use concealer much in my younger days, but the pace of an accelerated graduate school program in my early 40s, on the heels of being a caregiver for two years (also little sleep) meant I needed something for dark circles under my eyes and the occasional blemish. This fits the bill nicely, and the different shades each have their own purpose. I have fair skin, and it doesn't take much product to do the job. The concealers are thick enough to cover, but I have never had an issue with them caking. (I use a small brush to apply and blend.) I normally use a mineral (powder) foundation, but even when I use a liquid foundation (a Pacifica formula), it doesn't disturb the concealer I applied. The fact that it doesn't take much also means this one container lasts me for a number of months. (I think the current one I am using is going on four months? Or five?) The one drawback to that is that I find the last of the product -- the small ring that is left when you have used 85-90% of the product -- tends to dry out before I finish it, and this is the reason I rated it four stars instead of five. Aside from that, I have no complaints.

I love Pacifica products, and buy everything from their make up to face masks to lotions. This, however, was rather disappointing. While the price point seemed good for the three separate concealers, the ability to blend them, for me at least, was very off. I found I could not use them successfully under or over either simply moisturizer, a tinted moisturizers or regular foundation. I tried using a sponge, and various brushes, without particularly good results, and ended up putting my regular concealer on top -- which defeats the purpose, IMO. I'm not sure why I had such poor results as I am by no means impatient, or inexperienced in make-up application!

I have rosacea, middle aged skin, and dark circles. The rosacea can be hard to cover. I am in love with the yellow concealer! It hides it really well and it doesn’t take a whole lot to do so! The pink worked well for my dark circles. I wasn’t as fond of the green, but think it will grow on me. I just used my fingertips to apply this and that worked well. I’m really pleased!!!!
