What you thought: "The product sinks into fine lines and does not last throughout the day. Must use enormous amounts of powder to make it last. UGH." -- tesashel, TotalBeauty.com member
What you thought: "Each time I used it the Active Light shifted, settled in fine lines and did nothing but draw attention to this area -- not in a good way. I thought I may have been using it incorrectly so I ... had [a Jane Iredale representative] apply it ... She stated to remember 'less is more,' and when she finished it did look wonderful. However, once again within hours after [her] application ... it not only settled into fine lines and called attention to this area but seemed to shift and collect in large almost lumps/lines." -- Isobelle, TotalBeauty.com member
What you thought: "The brush is awkward and nasty. I purchased this as an alternative to [Bare Escentuals i.d. bareMinerals]. But L'Oreal (which I love) missed the bandwagon on minerals -- not only with the brush, but the product (it was gritty)." -- suzy_ishtar, TotalBeauty.com member
What you thought: "This product doesn't hold a lot of product in it. Also, it doesn't offer a lot of coverage and it is drying." -- Reservechic, TotalBeauty.com member
What you thought: "I have used Rimmel products in the past with good results but this is an exception. ... This concealer is so lightweight that it does not conceal. It has the texture of foundation so it melts into your skin and dissolves without covering your flaws. I have moderately dark circles and this concealer didn't even begin to conceal my troubled areas. Thumbs down." -- melissa912, TotalBeauty.com member
