I have been searching for this product for weeks and finally Clicks restocked and I managed to get one. I'm not actually sure how much this product costs as on the shelf it said R34.99 but on my till slip it was rung up for R15. I was really disappointed in this concealer, especially since I love Essence products. The first color I tried was the pink, as I suffer from dark circles. I first applied it with a concealer brush, but this was a disaster, so the second time I used it, I used my fingers. The application was definitely better. It does an okay job of covering circles, but not great. This could be cause I have very bad circles. It definitely creases a lot and wears off quite quickly. The best application I had with the pink was when I used the pink as my first layer and then put a different (normal) concealer on top.
I don't like the green, as this leaves your skin looking green and the brown one is too dark for my complexion, even when it's mixed with the other colors. The texture of these concealers isn't bad, but they seem to only apply to very well moisturized skin. If you have slight dryness, then this will be a cakey nightmare. Overall i wasn't impressed. If this product costs R15 then it's worth trying out, but for R35 it's too much. So I guess that says it all.
