I got this product one day at Walmart because I had heard about it on youtube. I heard it was compared to a tattoo concealer, so it had to be good right? I got the shade medium because they didn't have light when I got it. But I am glad I did for the summer. In the winter, I will need the light shade. :)

too light for my hand and too yellow based
to show you how thick it is
blended (kinda)
boyfriend's tattoo before and after:
obviously it doesn't match his skin colour and is way too yellow based. but you can see how thick it is.

Overall:
The packaging is alright. I like how it is in a tube because it doesn't dry out and you can control the amount you use. Although, I don't like tubes because it is hard to see how much you have left. and the top gets messy. :) If you were using this for every day use (like me) the tube is alright, but for bigger areas (like tattoos) the tube is hard to use since not a lot of product comes out.
The product is amazing! I absolutely love this. :) I will be getting the light one for the winter time since my skin will lighten. But this concealer is only good for under the eyes. It is a yellow-based concealer for covering up blues. This isn't really good for spots so it is still nice to have another concealer if you are prone to spots. I use my mac one. :) As you can see from the pictures above, it is really thick and creamy and it does cover really well. I find it hard to layer under my eyes if I want a little more coverage though cause it does crease. You could use a primer if you want. I put a little foundation on before my concealer and it helps!
The value is also amazing! You get a lot of product for under $6 (canadian). You barely need any to cover a small area too. That is why the value rating is 100%. You really need a dot tool dot size for both eyes. So this product will last forever. Since I do have to get a lighter shade for the winter, it really will last forever! :)
The concealer is fairly to use. Although, I think since it is so think it is hard to blend and work with. Especially if this was the first one you were trying. I haven't tried using brush, I think it would be harder because the warmth helps to blend. Also, if you use to much it creases a little right under the eyes. Lastly, it can only be used under the eyes, unless you have yellow toned skin? I don't know.
I LOVE this concealer! I would totally recommend it to a friend. It is really affordable and the amount you get compared to the amount you use is also amazing. Like I said through out the post, I am repurchasing the lighter shade for the winter! :)
