My Reviews:
At first I was quite hesitant to try this as almost 99% of the reviews I’ve read online are negative. But I still decided to get one as ELF is having a SALE and I got this for only a dollar instead. Upon my first try, I HATE it so much! The consistency is too waxy and sheer, its like applying nothing! But once I used my fingers instead of the brush provided, its not that difficult to apply anymore. 

Why I’m loving it:
·         Its Mineral Makeup!
·         Cheap and Affordable
·         Available in All Watson’s Elf booth
·         Sleek Packaging/convenient to carry anywhere
·         4 Shades palette to conceal imperfections

 
Overall Review:
Even though 99% of the people hate this product but for me I think this product is not that bad at all. I love how the green tone neutralize the redness of my skin and the nude/beige to conceal a bit of my acnes.(you can see on the pic above that the green shade is the most used one) The consistency might be a bit waxy and sheer but its buildable so there’s no big deal at all. Using the applicator might be a little tricky so I suggest using your fingers and the results will be much much better. Overall, quite a decent concealer for a price of a dollar. The only downside is if you have big cystic acne this won't help at all.

Recommend? Maybe, for those with minimal imperfection =)
Buy Again? Only if it goes on sale again..hehe~

  3. I have this too, but I didn't quite like it. I only found the green corrective concealer useful 'cause I have redness on my face. The other colors though were meh for me. I gave this to my lil sis and she's grown to like it.

    Btw, following your blog now sis. Happy 2012! :)

  4. I think this would be useful for me, I always look for it at my local Target but they never seem to carry it. I'm seriously considering ordering from ELF online but I'm still on a shopping ban.

  6. I have this as well, but didn't really like it. it doesn't stay long and doesn't have a lot of coverage. it's more on the sheer side. But you're right if you only have minimal imperfections, this would be okay.

  14. lol I'm surprised you still bought it even though you read all the negative reviews. Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you either...it's a good deal, but the consistency does sound a bit weird and hard to apply. Thanks for the review! :)
