Review: Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer


A couple of weeks ago I received this Boi-ing cakeless concealer via Influenster. I've now tried it out everyday over a week's time. 


This concealer goes on a little wonky because the doe foot applicator is kinda large and the applicator moves a little too easily so if you're looking to put this in a straight line, good luck. It dried down really fast! Really fast. It's a little on the thick side but if you can press it down quickly enough before it dries, it is really smooth and while it doesn't cake, it does crease. It creased fast under my eyes. Now granted, I'm almost 50 years old so for someone who isn't as old as I am and doesn't have fine lines under their eyes, this might not crease as fast as it did for me. I had to work really fast and apply the translucent powder over this under my eyes to try and stop some of the creasing but it still creased. I don't have this problem with my normal brand of concealer. 

I will say that it's a nice color, adds brightness under my eyes and does conceal any dark circles but it's just not the right concealer for me. 


I do love the packaging though. It's supposed to look like a pencil I think and I found that really cute. 

Disclosure: I received a free product in exchange for an honest review but all thoughts and opinions are my own.

  1. I am older than you and definitely have some fine (and not so fine) lines. It sounds as if this would not be for me either.

  11. Such cute packaging! But I think I'll skip this, I'm sow putting on makeup because I've always got a little one running around my feet, I'd never get this settled before it dried down!
