Too dry-MATTE

I don't know everyone seems to like this concealer but.......I didn't like it that much. I bought this for my under eye darkness. I got this because of the fact that it's a long wear concealer. I was told that it was full coverage also and that the creasing was minimal to none. I liked that it came in a pump because I thought that would make it easy to control how much came out. Um. No. My under eyes are not even that dark and I didn't feel like it covered all that much. Yes there was some brightening but not enough. The thing I hate the most about this concealer is that it is SO matte that any little bump or change of texture is magnified. I actually had to exchange the color because the original color I took home was too dark. When I expressed concern about how dry the finished was the make up artist told me a decent eye cream would be good enough so I thought ok I'll give it a try. Didn't work. Here were the things I liked: it was blend-able(if you blend quickly because it sets pretty fast), somewhat build-able, absolutely waterproof, and absolutely long wearing, there wasn't too much creasing. But the less than exceptional coverage and extreme matte finish makes me regret this purchase. The pump is also difficult to control and too much product comes out which is so wasteful which wouldn't bother me so much if not for the price. Maybe I'll wait a few more weeks for summer to start and see if the humidity actually works in my favor for this concealer but for now-- I don't like it.
