- "this concealer was my favorite until i tried tarte shape tape. i have severe under eye circles so i need a lot of coverage. i could get full coverage if i layered this under my eyes and set with a brightening powder, but i can get full coverage with one go with the tarte concealer. this concealer was fine on my dry skin, maybe a little drying but not enough to keep me from using it. i bought this specifically for under eyes so i'm not sure how it is at spot concealing. i've switched over to tarte because it works better for my needs but if it creases on you or is too full coverage this would be a good option. i also didn't find a perfect color match but i wanted to try the mini from sephora first which drastically limited my options. bisque was good enough of a match for me to use for a few months and i love that mini versions are available" in 1611 reviews

Review for: Café Con Leche more...
I adore this concealer, it is absolutely marvelous and my current holy grail concealer. It is light weight, medium to full coverage, easily blendable, and looks very natural. I use this concealer everyday and have yet to find one that performs the same. I’m currently on my second container of this product. It is a little expensive but I can really feel the difference between this and other brands. It also is not incredibly drying or cakey like some other heavier concealers. The application wand is very thin and quite standard but I’m just happy it has a wand. In my opinion, it is a nice medium thickness formula. Thick enough to provide coverage but not so thick that is creases super easily or has a heavy feeling. I suggest this for anyone who has dry skin or dark circles.
Review for: Vanilla more...
While this is a very hydrating concealor, which is good for dry undereyes, it just didnt have enough pigment for my under eyes. I have very thin skin with a few blue veins going under my eyes and this did not have enough coverage to conceal them. It did cover my dark circles and brighten up the area, which if you dont have an extreme situation to cover up, it would be great for you. Definitely something that can be worn for a simple everyday look or a glam look. Shade vanilla was a great cool toned color for my very fair skin. But not quite light enough to use as a highlighter for the center of the face. Which is a common occurance for me with my very fair skin.
Purchased at: Sephora
it wasn't it for me. It felt light on my face which was nice but for a higher end concealer, I really wanted a little more than that. Also, the color range really wasn't fantastic. Yes, they have a lot of colors, but a lot of them seemed to have almost ashy undertones, which I did not expect from NARS. I got the shade "Vanilla" thinking since I am a pretty pale person but not the palest it would be okay. It ended up darker than my actual foundation and even normal skin tone and just sat on my eyes weirdly. Because of the odd coloration, it was doomed. I ended up giving it to my mom who used it maybe 2 times since then.
Review for: Custard more...
Let me start out by saying I'm a creature of habit when it comes to certain products. I have always stuck with one drugstore concealer for YEARS because I absolutely love it, and nothing compared to it (even high end concealers). I don't know why I was always hesitant of buying this one; the price definitely had something to do with that. Well, I finally gave it a shot. Oh my good gosh. This is THE BEST concealer I have ever tried, and that is a HUGE statement for me to make. I have the shade Custard, and my skin tone is light/medium to medium. This is such a good shade for me. It's light enough to highlight my features but doesn't make me look ghostly or pale.
The formula of this concealer is, of course, amazing. I have normal skin, which can lean slightly dry at times. I'd say the texture is slightly thick but also lightweight (does that make sense?). It blends like a dream on me. I personally like to blend my concealers with a blending sponge. The coverage is perfect. I'm not a fan of super full, cakey looking coverage. This gives me medium to full coverage and looks very natural. A little definitely goes a long way. It just looks so good! I don't have issues with it creasing badly on me, and it doesn't emphasize any fine lines. It doesn't look drying on me either. And it stays put all day. I've worn this for 10+ hours, and it looks the same by the end of the day. Very little fading.
I really don't think I have anything bad to say about this concealer. It's worth every single penny. I'll be reaching for this constantly, and consider it as one of my new go-to concealers.

Review for: Chantilly more...
Cult Favorite, but not the best on the market.
The NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is known as a cult favorite because it’s tried and true. The concealer gives great coverage, but let me tell you what i don’t like:
1. The price point in comparison to the amount of product you are receiving. ($30)
2. It’s not that creamy
3. If you don’t use the product, it dries in the tube and it becomes increasingly more difficult to get product from the bottle
Overall, there is truly better concealers out there for a much more justified price.

My all-time favorite concealer, hands-down! This concealer is the perfect consistency for putting on and having time to spread a bit so that it doesn’t look obvious. It lasts all day, without creasing, which is very important to me. I’m a lifetime believer!NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
Review for: Caramel more...
A really great natural concealer. It is definitely a sheer-medium coverage concealer- but a solid medium! It layers easily without looking caking on the skin and it is obviously super light weight. I love concealers like this because it's hydrating and brightens the under eye beautifully. I wouldn't exactly use this to conceal blemishes- but a keeper for those no makeup-makeup days or if you want that radiant look.
10 stars. I have terrible dark circles- not the wimpy ones most people complain about, but the hereditary ones that are really just skin pigmentation. This is the best concealer I have ever found. I was previously using the Benefite Boing concealer and thought that was pretty great, but it was too drying for under my eye area during the winter. Tried this NARS concealer and WOW- I didn't know what I was missing! This concealer is so incredibly pigmented so it provides amazing coverage, and you do not need a lot at all. A little goes a super long way. It's pretty moisturizing as well, which is great for winter. It is very long lasting too. I definitely don't need to re-apply for like 8-10 hours, but I could definitely go about 16 hours if needed- I'm probably the only one that even notices that I need a touch up. I wish I could prevent everyone from buying any other concealer ever again--don't spend your money on any concealer except this one! I have naturally light/medium skin and use self tanner on my face daily and get about a medium skin tone, and the shade medium custard is perfect. In the summer with a tan I will likely have to mix it with the next darker shade.
My holy grail concealer. If everything else in my life is going wrong, I can count on Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer to do me a solid and bring me back to life. I have VERY yellow/olive skin (depending on the season) and this concealer works beautifully with my skin tone. I rarely get creasing and it doesnt transfer after I set it. I love my Fenty Beauty concealer but Nars is still my holy grail.
Review for: Chantilly more...
I have tried a lot of concealers and recently and finally got around to trying this NARS one. For years, I have heard great things about this concealer. I am very fair skinned and sometimes have a tough time finding a shade light enough for me to use as a highlighting concealer. If I do find a shade light enough, often times it is too cool toned and I have a neutral to warm undertone. Chantilly is the perfect shade. My current holy grail concealer has been Tarte’s Shape Tape, but this one is right up there with that one. I like that it’s slightly lighter than my Shape Tape concealer (which is the lightest shade they offer). It’s also a lighter formula but still has great pigmentation and coverage. The wand is a bit thin which makes spreading it on slightly more difficult. I think I’ve just been spoiled by the Shape Tape thick doe foot applicator. I haven’t noticed any creasing and it lasts long on my skin. I’m really impressed by this one. I think it’s a great alternative when I want good coverage, but a lighter formula.

Yes, I have oily skin and find that it lasts all day on my face and doesn't budge! Highly recommend it, worth the money!
is this concealer worth the $$$ ? & does it cover extreme dark circles ?
I own this concealer and am looking for new ways to experiment with it. Do you think it's best applied with fingers, brushes or a beauty blender under the eyes for a natural finish?

I brush it on with the applicator, tap/spread it around with my ring finger, then use a damp Real Techniques (the pointy end) or an E.L.F. small stippling brush to really blend it in
I am so tempted to try this , but how is it on creasing and longevity?

I find that it creases only under my eyes but is fine everywhere else :(. It definitely is on the heavier side and if you have dry skin, you may not like this product
Worth the hype? Ive never tried this but with it being everywhere im really curious
