Love this product.

This is a good product and a good color. It’s reasonably priced and it does cover the area under the eyes quite effectively. The reason why I’m giving it four stars is because it’s very dry and drying. I have mature skin so I need more hydration. I’ve seen switched to a different product which is more creamy

I love this concealer, it's super creamy and smooth and it has great coverage while still looking natural on the skin. I have yet to find a better concealer and I've repurchased it countless times at this point

VERY dry, Hard to blend. Good coverage, wish it was easier to blend but is sweat proof and stays on all day.

**🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Versatile Concealer That’s Become My Daily Favorite!**Using the NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Can't Stop Won't Stop Contour Concealer in Light Ivory has been a lifesaver in my makeup routine. It blends seamlessly with my skin, effortlessly covering blemishes and brightening my under-eye area, which can look tired after long days. What I love most is how lightweight it feels—it's perfect for all-day wear without creasing.I’ve even used it for a bit of contouring and highlighting when I want to elevate my look, and it works like a charm. The applicator is super easy to use, making touch-ups quick and hassle-free. Honestly, I’m impressed by how such an affordable product delivers this level of quality. It’s definitely earned a permanent spot in my makeup bag!

NYX makes GREAT concealer, especially for the price. It has a perfectly creamy consistency with buildable medium coverage. It's not watery nor is it thick. I use it to cover darkness under my eyes and any redness/spots on my face. When using this concealer, I don't feel the need to wear additional foundation. Just a little powder on top, and I'm good to go. I currently own 5 shades and I've gone through multiple tubes of each shade since I discovered this concealer a few years ago.I'll start with the shade selection, because I'm sure that's why a lot of people are reading the reviews. I have a cool skin tone and I have found 4 of the shades that I can make work for me whether I'm pale or have a tan. In my opinion, this is the breakdown of what tone each concealer is : 01 porcelain and 02 fair are neutral tones. 03 light and 05 medium are peachy cool tones. 04 beige is a warm yellow tone and 06 glow is a warm orange tone. I haven't tried the darker ones. I posted pictures of the shades I currently have plus swatches just to help out anyone who is struggling to pick a color. Keep in mind I really globbed the concealer on the paper for those swatches, but in real life the shades look much lighter once they are blended out.For the eyes, I put 3 or 4 dots of concealer a shade lighter than my skin tone, pat it around with a clean fingertip and let it dry halfway. At this point it will look cakey/not blended at all, this is fine. Once it's halfway dry, I then use a damp beauty sponge and blend it out the rest of the way. I get much better, smoother coverage when I use this technique. If you try to blend it out when it's still fully wet, you'll wipe away all the coverage. If you don't blend at all, you'll end up cakey. It's also a good idea to use a setting powder on top so it doesn't crease.For redness, I like to use a shade that is either my exact skin tone or a tad darker in combination with the green color corrector. The green seriously makes such a big difference! I mix the two shades on the back of my hand – a dab of skin tone plus the tiniest little dot of green. It will look ghostly on your hand, but once it's over top of the redness, it neutralizes it perfectly. Again, I like to let it dry a little bit before I try to do any blending.I have normal/dry skin and I'm able to get through half the day with this concealer still looking good. It does crease and wear off a bit, but it doesn't get as gross as other brands I've tried. This probably also largely depends on whether you are oil/normal/dry and what the weather is like that day though.The only con to this product is the label wears off and I think their shade selection isn't wide enough to suit every skin tone. Overall, I would definitely recommend this concealer to anyone.

It's lightweight, provides a natural look and covers really well
