Best Concealer for Blemishes?

Benefit's Erase Paste is a pretty good concealer in general, however, for blemishes I would recommend one with an acne fighting formula :)

For $14, Clinique has Acne Solutions Clearing Concealer and they are a very good brand when it comes to skincare and cosmetics combined.
However this also can be found in a less expensive Neutrogena concealer like SkinClearing Blemish Concealer ($9).

And then there is Bare Escentuals Blemish Therapy ($18) which is very good for treating blemishes since it has sulfur in it, but i'm not sure how well of a concealer it is since it is a powder formula. It might be a better night treatment.

The one I'm using right now is MAC Pro Longwear Concealer and it covers everything pretty good, and you only need a tiny bit of the product cause a little bit goes a long way :)

Mac's Studio Finish Concealer with a synthetic eye blending brush! Studio finish is very high coverage! So with a fluffy brush you just swirl it over your spots and they will really dissapear. Great for under the eyes too!

I love the MAC studio finish that really conceals and it has concealed my acne

the hard candy glamoflage is very comparable to the kat von d tattoo concealer and is a fraction of the cost! $6 maybe? you have to be careful with it tho, a tiny tiny bit goes a long way!! it really covers everything up and stays on considering it's meant for tattoos!

I'm currently using the Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Concealer and I LOVE it. This is coming from a girl with severe acne lol. :) However, I do use a cream foundation and tinted setting powder over it to get the coverage I want. But it's working great for me!

I know this concealer has yet to have the hype since it is only sold EXCLUSIVELY on QVC, but Tarte's Maracuja concealer is SUPER PIGMENTED! I hated Benefit's erase paste because it settled into fine lines... and to be honest, I didn't even realize I had any until I used that stuff! [It was so hard to work with...]

Tarte;s is easy to work w/... creamy and you only need a little. Try it if you want to purchase their Glow Your Way To Gorgeous set or wait for it to come to Sephora in a few months. You won't regret it! I like it even more than Bobby Brown's!

I agree with Steph on the tattoo concealer...the only problem is that I feel like I'm in between a shade so I can't match my face too well. But if you find a match in the selection they have, it's got amazing coverage.

But Soma has me interested in this new Tarte concealer big time...

Raven N. - def. try it! I think it's very hydrating, and I have to warn you, it does run very light. I usually consider myself a light - but since watching reviews, I bumped myself up to a medium and it barely makes the cut for my NC30 skin this summer. Winter, it would be perfect! Otherwise, I get the Kim Kardashian highlight under the eyes look with this shade on myself... which isn't necessarily bad, but for days I want to look completely natural, I'll be getting tan next time. If you're oily, you'd def. have to set it w/ a powder. I have oily/combo skin, and it works well w/ me after I set my face w/ MUFE's HD powder. Lasts me a good 8 hour day. <3 it.

Dermablend's Quick Fix Concealer is my favorite and go-to concealer for blemishes, it's super pigmented, comes in a variety of shades, and you need so little to cover anything. You can dab it on or use a SUPER TINY brush, and your blemishes will legit disappear. It doesn't melt off under any circumstances for me. LOVE IT SO MUCH.
