Origins Quick, Hide! Concealer

I needed a new concealer and wanted a liquid with doe foot/foam tip applicator. I'd used that type in the past and been relatively happy. More recently, I'd been experimenting with sticks and solids and twist-up brush styles and none really worked for me -- too orange, too dry or hard to blend or cakey, or whatever. I also needed a concealer that worked well for zits and blemishes, rather than for...read more under eye circles. Paula B had the Origins as a pick so I gave it a shot. Perfection! I use 01 Light and it blends into my skin and looks natural while covering up zits and scars. I mostly use it on my chin. This blends so well with my skin tone that there are days I can just put some powder over it and be done -- no need for foundation. The tube/brush packaging is great, although sometimes the applicator kind of jumps out of the tube, like there's some air pressure forcing it out. I got this in the US and since I knew it would be hard to find at home, after a few days testing it out, I bought a second tube. Price was $15 plus tax which is starting to get up there for a tube of concealer compared to the cheapest drugstore brands, but this is so beyond those that it's worth it. HG. The finish is still matte, but super natural looking. It still dries slightly darker too, which is a problem for me this time. Once it dries it does not match my skin the way it used to. Wish the colors were not so limited, but would still recommend it. This is probably the best concealer I've tried so far. I even compared it to the supposedly wonderful Cle de Peau concealer, and I thought the Origins Quick Hide was just as good. It's also far more reasonable in price. It applies easily, doesn't cake on too thick, and blends well for a natural appearance, all while doing what it's supposed to deal: conceal. This is probably the best concealer I have ever used! Now, admittedly, I have pretty decent skin, and not a whole lot that needs concealing. But I do have under-eye circles, and I am getting older, so I have fine lines in the eye area as well. This stuff covers the circles, brightens under my eyes a bit, and DOES NOT settle in my lines!!! LOVE!!!! And, unlike all the little brush-ended, highlighting, under-eye "pen" type products, you can feel okay using this on blemishes too. Will definitely re-purchase, and soon, since I loaned mine to my daughter and she hasn't ever returned it.... This is my favorite and only concealer. I'm only on my third tube: the first one was in the little metal squeeze tube and lasted for years, and the second was in the newer doefoot tube and still isn't gone after 3-4 years! I've heard they recently changed the formula which is not good, but I love my current tube which I bought last year. I use "Very Light" and it's the perfect shade (though I looked on the website and it doesn't seem to be made in that shade anymore - urgh). It's silky, blends perfectly, covers completely (medium coverage) and never looks obvious. I use it to cover blemishes and undereye circles and it works great for both problems. I hope I can continue to use this perfect concealer even after the reformulation.

Circles be gone!

I love that this comes in several fair skinned shades! It covers very well, blends easily, and lasts the day. It's a miracle worker for dark circles.

Not good for hiding blemishes.

Origins doens't have a wide array of colors to choose from, and it didn't blend well for my blemishes, but it is great for under eyes.

HG HG HG

HG! HG! HG! I couldn't be happier with this concealer. Shade 2 Light/Medium is pretty much the exact color of my skin. Other people may find the range of shades a bit narrow, but for most people I know who wear concealer could probably find a match. I paid $16 and change for this after tax, so the product itself is only around $15 which is amazing for the quality and the amount. The lack of questi...read moreonable ingredients is what drove me to it, although I had been using paraben-free Amazing Concealer before in Light Golden, which I found was great but lacked lasting power (and at $33 for the travel size the packaging of which cracked around the tip I can't bring myself to repurchase, unless they make the tube better). This concealer dries matte a tad darker than it comes out of the tube so extra-fair beware. It covers any and all hyperpigmentation on my face with one application. I dab the doe foot applicator to the tip of a sanitized finger and apply it that way, to keep things hygenic. I find the heat from my own skin helps this blend better than a sponge. The formula does not highlight dryness at all, but rather improves my dry patches over a day of wear. The color so seamlessly blends with my skin that I can just wear this without foundation, even though my routine usually consists of at least some BB cream under it. Can't say too much how it would fare on undereye circles since I don't have bad ones and use Benefit Erase Paste under my eyes and on my lids if they look a little veiny. I imagine the formula wouldn't cause dryness on me though, since it seems to repel dryness on my blemishes and around my nostrils. Overall, I'm loving this concealer and if I ever finish it would buy again.

Not worth the money

This is a good concealer for general light use and for anyone wanting natural ingredients. Does NOT cover under eye dark circles very well and does not last as long as they claim to. I could have bought a concealer at a regular drug store for less money for the same results. I would not recommend this concealer for good coverage.

I love this!

This is the best concealer ever! Makes my dark circles and blemishes disappear for the entire day! It also blends in perfectly with my skin. I also love that it is free of a lot of chemicals.

Hides flaws great

Hides my blemishes really well without that heavy feel. Though I think Neutrogena concealer does just as well at half the price.

Best Concealer

I have used many many many many undereye concealers and was basically going to give up and deal with my dark circles. I tried Origins concealer last week and it has been THE BEST concealer ever. It was so easy to put on and does not need to be blended very much. I can add layers and it doesn't look cakey and the tone matches my skin great. Other concealers are often yellowy or peachy or way to...read moreo light but I actually use the lightest one even though my skin is more medium and it matches great! It also lasts all day and doesn't seem to dry my skin out either. Very good and highly reccommend.
