def great for over 45 eyes....I don't have very visible lines under the eye but I do have circles and lids that are dark against Irish light sand complexion.
This is a wonderful product. I use it below and above the eye. stays put, covers well. Most important, not a fragrance and my eyes are sensitive to that.

Yes, to all of your questions. Personally, I liked the old one better because the container was smaller. I think the old one was a bit thicker but overall, they're pretty much the same.

They changed their packaging but seems to be the same product. I use #1 as well and it is the same in the new package which is easier to use the product with.

I really like it. Because it is lightweight it does not appear cakey but may not work as well to conceal raised or very red blemishes

answer 3

It definitely conceals blemishes well :) It's really full coverage, plus the finish is great -- I haven't noticed any obvious patches as you get with normal concealers, as this is super-creamy but dries down without shine etc.

answered 3 years, 8 months ago

answer 4

Yes - I think it covers them really well and it doesn't make them worse because it is not oily and waxy like traditional concealers, it is more like a liquid but the coverage is great. Just pat it on the blemish, let it dry and cover with foundation.

Not at all-- in fact, I have found the opposite to be true. It is slightly moisturizing, but with a matte finish. Really seems to be good for the skin. I love it!

I don't have acne-prone skin but I would probably choose something else. My eyeliner slides off when I use this product and I don't normally have oily skin.

I used the old concealer as well and was so disappointed when I saw it had been "updated". I bought it anyway because I trust FRESH and Sephora's exchange policies are amazing. I was thrilled as it is even better than the previous product. Go for it you will be pleased.
