Good spot treatment

May 19, 2012
"I've been using this for a good ten years, which includes the precursor to this particular product (used to be a stick before the tube). Just use a little to cover a spot and it blends in well. I'm reasonably pale and use shade 1 under my makeup."

Cover it up

May 18, 2012
"I don't get blemishes that often, but when I do I of course want to cover them up. I've used other coverups but I've broken out even more. I've used a bunch of Clinique acne products and make up and I've loved all of them. So I decided to try the concealer. It's medicated, so not only will it cover, but treat them too. So far, love it!"

Didn't work for me

May 15, 2012
"This concealer didn't control the acne, nor conceal it. It dried my skin , left flaky skin and the concealer made it look worse"

Absolutely Love this Concealer!

May 8, 2012
Pros: gets rid of existing blemishes, prevents future breakouts, has great coverage!
"I use this concealer every day & can't live without it! I use it even when I'm not breaking out to prevent blemishes. When using this product every day, it's extremely rare that I get a pimple. I recommend this to almost everyone!"

Not for me

May 3, 2012
"In addition to drying so quickly it couldn't be blended, this concealer caused some serious skin irritation. I'm will be returning it."

really works!!

April 19, 2012
Pros: clears & conceals
Cons: none so far!
"When you first try this product, you may think that it doesn't blend well but if you use the concealer brush( which i would also recommend) it really blends without looking cakey. It has really helped me- its like the spot gel and concealer combined!! It also looks so natural-no one knows it's there!! Thanks Clinique!!"

BEST TREATMENT EVER!

April 12, 2012
Pros: lasts all day, great coverage
"I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!! I have used everything even bare minerals! This is the only concealer I have ever used that doesn't make my acne worse. I use it every day! Just a teeny tiny bit (half a pea) for my whole face. I just cover the problem using a tiny concealer brush and then, smudge it in with my finger. I also use the clinique benzoyl peroxide every morning and just a little moisture surge under my eyes(which is an even more amazing product) and my skin just glows. I am 28 and this is the best my skin has ever looked. THANK YOU CLINIQUE!"

AMAZING!!!!!!!! Well worth the money!

March 28, 2012
Pros: large product, covers well, good value
"A little goes a long way, the first time I used it I wasn't very impressed if you put to much on it gets very clumpy, and cracks. A tiny bit really does wonders, and also clears up the problems areas fast. I bought this back in Dec, and use it pretty much every day and it is 90% full still. Well worth the money! Will be buying again :)"

Just good enough

March 27, 2012
"Clinique, really makes a good job at mixing makeup and skincare, all in one. So, when I was breaking out just a little and looking for a concealer, this happened to be the perfect match for me.
It treats acne and covers it! How exciting.
When I first started using it, a great sense of disapointment invaded me. First, the liquid formula makes it hard to blend out because it dries very quickly. So, if you are trying to cover redness over an extended part of your face, this is no good. Then, the shading, Clinique always has a blunt shading system. Which makes matching product and skin almost impossible.
However, I am lucky enough that all the CONS about this concealer seem to not really affect me. I just use this on my very few pimples and acne scars and that's it.
Don't expect this to be your full-time concealer, use it as it's intended to, covering acne spots.

hard to blend

March 25, 2012
"This product is hard to blend. Does not help prevent acne. It does not even helps me hide the acne, hard to find a color to match my skin tone."

Hard to blend

March 3, 2012
Cons: hard to blend
"I love clinique products, but this one just didn't do it for me. I couldn't get it to blend properly, even with the brush. The result was a splotchy looking area on my skin that looked almost as bad as the blemish I was trying to hide!"

Poor coverage

January 14, 2012
"I really tried to like this concealer over the past few months, but I hate using it by itself over or under foundation. It doesn't stay on and makes my blemishes look flaky. Comes off very easily in water and just doesn't have the covereage I need."

Not only conceals it heals!!!

December 17, 2011
Pros: dries up pimples, covers redness
"I think this stuff is AMAZING. I got it put on me by a lady at Macy's who was helping me choose the right foundation. I had pretty big zit on my chin and she put this special concealer on it and it covered up the zit very well. The best part was that I fell asleep that night and forgot to take my makeup off.... and the next morning the pimple was gone! It had completely dried up! I was so amazed. I have very sensitive skin and no acne product I have ever bought that wasn't even makeup at the same time ever worked so well for me! I had to buy it! Clinique stuff is the best. So clean and light! I also wear the acne foundation and it never makes me break out. Recommend it to everyone."

Best Acne Concealer

November 27, 2011
Pros: definitely hids pimples, lasts all day
"I am in my 40's and have fought pimples throughout my life. I have been using this for years. It is the best concealer (and I have purchased a lot) for acne prone skin. It is thick (remember, it is a treatment product). Dab a tiny amount on the area and then, dab a tiny amount of a more creamy concealer on top of that. Together, they blend and cover very nicely! The coverage lasts all day & treats the pimple. I couldn't go without it!"

Works for me!

September 21, 2011
"I was skeptic to try this because of the unfavorable reviews, but this concealer was surprisingly great! It covers the spots completely and the best thing is that it's the fastest acne healing product I've actually seen (and I have tried many!) My spots/blemishes disappear before enlarging! Thanks Clinique!"
