Usually I don't have many reasons to purchase concealer because my face didn't have many blemishes and my under eye area only needed a medium-full coverage foundation. By mishap and misfortune, after I just hit the good age of 31, my face broke out in so many different ways that I didn't feel comfortable without a mask-on or any make foundation. My skin was purging from a new skin cleanser I was trying out and whole bunch of new blemish issues that I have never dealt with before came into play.After all that, I decided to look into a good light concealer to wear under my foundation. I tried and E.l.f concealer in the past but it was a bit oily and was sort of slippery to cover and blemishes.With NYX as my next quality, go-to drugstore brand, I decided to take a look into this concealer knowing about its fantastic reviews.Most of the time, I like to buy my make-up in stores for the best color match because each brand has their own variation of color wheels. I wasn't in much of a mood to go to Ulta or Target and browse all day, so I just decided to take a gander at the swatch reference they have along with this concealer's post. I went with a Neutral Tan (I use E.l.f's flawless foundation in Honey, a tan with neutral undertones) because it looked closest to my foundation. I even tried to go a bit lighter since the winter months have just passed by and I have been staying indoors most days. Goodness, I must have been thrown off by the word "neutral" because when I tested it out upon it's arrival, it wasn't a neutral tone at all; it is more along a warmer yellow tone. My skin tone runs from medium-to medium dark, depending on the season and my veins peep through as green, so I claim that I am an olive tone. With the fight between warm or cool/ yellow or pink tones in my life, the invention of "neutral" undertones really made me feel like I finally found make-up in exact shades of my skin; and because of the word "neutral" in this concealer, I thought it would be a closer match than what I expected, but I used to choose warmer foundations in the past, so I just went with it.Nonetheless, the concealer itself is a very, very, very good product; lightweight with buildable coverage. Like described, it has a satiny texture and is slightly matte and when you smooth it on your skin, you can barely feel that it's on face. Some of the blemishes on my face are somewhat dark, and with a good dot of product, it lighten it up pretty well. With a second dot, it can cover it completely. With regular mask usage, it lasts just about the same as my foundation; rubbing off here and there, with the blemishes looking like it had naturally faded.Also, this is definitely a concealer that takes care of the undereye area, making it look like there aren't any dark circles or bags.Definitely love this product and will look into trying the other shades to find my exact match.

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Can't Stop Won't Stop Contour Concealer, Light Ivory, 0.11 Ounce really blends beautifully and doesn't sink into fine lines and then create a mess of creases. I found that applying a small amount and then blending with my ring finger allows the concealer to warm up and really melt into your skin. This stuff doesn't move once it is applied but does wash off with your normal makeup remover or cleanser. It is really opaque and will cover up almost anything. The formula isn't drying either.I really thought this was the perfect color but it is really light so you may actually have to go into a store to make sure you get the correct color first.

First off let me start by saying, I have been experiencing some serious allergy like symptoms and eye issues and EVERY brand of makeup I've tried, from expensive to bargain, has caused severe eye watering, irritation, and didn't begin to do much for covering the insanely dark circles under my eyes. And, the few brands I've tried that started out covering up most of my dark circles faded out quickly, or ran down my face the moment my eyes started watering. I am going to see my dermatologist and an eye specialist to find out what's going on with my eyes and skin but I definitely don't want to go looking like a raccoon, lol. Plus, until those appointments come up, I have to still go out in public,

I really like this concealer! Who wouldn't like a good concealer to cover those dark under eye areas or the occasional blemish is spot? I have pretty fair skin and the light ivory tone was a pretty good match for my skin's end-of-winter pallor :-) It will be too light for summer but there is a good selection of shades.I like that the color is what I think of as a perfect version of light ivory skin tone. It looks light dabbed on but blends to a good match. It also covers well whether under eye or covering blemishes or spots. With no other makeup it blended in wonderfully. Perfect for me as I don't generally wear foundation.This applies easily with my fingertip. I like being low overhead where possible.

I bought this and took a risk because I had no idea whether it would be thick enough to hide my angry cystic acne, but I read some reviews and I'm so glad I did!!!It's brilliant! I've had bad acne for 10+ years and this concealer is better than any stick concealer I've been recommended in drug stores. I bought two shades; fair and pale (I'm hella white) and I get the best results when I've fully prepped my skin with moisturiser, treatments, primer spray, primer mousse, and then a layer of my regular no. 5 foundation. I find foundation first, then applying this under my eyes and across my chin and blended by dabbing a foundation brush to even it out gets the best soft highlighted coverage and you can't see ANY redness or dark circles etc!!!It's all about preparing your skin properly :)

I've never used a concealer that I like as much as this one. To be honest, I've never really been impressed by most concealers. I like this one though, and would buy it when I run out. This one seems to not only 'cover up' bits of darkness under m eyes, but it seems to illuminate the whole undereye area. It's very light, but it's not just the shade- It has a bit of sheen to it, and a really full coverage.It's in a standard tube with a sponge applicator. The sponge works well. I put it on under my eyes and the a heart shape on my forehead, a dot on my chin, and blend. It acts as both a concealer and since it is so light, it highlights the center of my face which looks elongating.

This is a review for the NYX Professional MAKEUP Can't Stop Won't Stop Contour Concealer in light ivory.I have dark circles under my eyes and a few broken blood vessels on my face so I've tried and used many concealers over the years. I would give this one mixed reviews.On the plus side, the color - light ivory - worked great on my skin. I have dark hair and pale skin and so many concealers I have tried in the past are too yellow; this one is not.The concealer goes on clean and easy and it does seem to cover up minor blemishes on my face.As far as covering the broken blood vessels, I would say it does just an okay job but you can definitely still see them unless I put a separate foundation on top.

I received this product complimentary for testing & was impressed with how well it helped brighten up my tired mommy eyes! I even used it as eyeshadow primer and didn't have any issues with flaking. I will only share and review what I like with my friends and family and this product is one I do recommend. I'm a huge fan of their lip glosses so I was excited to test this product out! To brighten underneath your eyes you want a lighter concealer shade. To cover up any blemishes or dark spots you'd want to go with a darker concealer shade (one that's a close match to your foundation shade) I am medium skin tone. I was sent shade Soft Beige which worked well for me. One tip I learned is don't blend too quickly.

I generally use Tarte Shape tape- however I ran across this concealer, honestly I loved the name (Can't stop won't stop) that's the main reason I purchased it! Let me just tell you, this concealer has same coverage as Tarte & it actually blends easier then Shape tape. I was in shocked by the amazing results!!! Now instead of paying 30 for Tarte, I just found my forever full coverage concealer for less than 6 dollars. I would most definitely recommend this concealer to anyone. it is hands-down the best I have used and I generally only use high-end products. This is a winner. I use light in Tarte & I purchased (Alabaster) I make it work however I could've went up a shade or two.

I'm pushing 50 and I don't really wear a lot of makeup and I never was one for foundation, that just isn't my thing. I like a natural look that is accentuated. Not a new face.But now, as I get older, I have more to hide and a good concealer is helpful. This vanilla shade is perfect for my under eye area and it stays there until I remove it, though I haven't honestly worked up a good sweat yet, so that might be something to see about as it gets hotter out.It doesn't irritate my skin or clog my pores. I dab a tiny bit on and blend out with a brush. I use a little powder over it and I'm good to go.I like this shade of "vanilla" and it is a pretty good match for my skin.

The container is 4.5" tall with a very practical applicator. The tone vanilla goes well with my clear skin and an olive undertone. The coverage depends also on the number of times the concealer is applied and the technique used. Dabbingover the spots and waiting to dry before applying another layer seems to work better, at the same time, if many layers are applied the pink-ish tone on my cheeks gets covered, therefore more make-up products are needed to complete the mission, which is covering up imperfections. Just like everything else in life, there is a trade off, how many layers of concealer would be necessary to cover up the spots and afterwards,
