Good Points
Very cheap. Is a piece of make-up.
Bad Points
Hard to rub in. Only conceals under eye and corners of eyes, doenst even last long at all. Max 1 hour. Sometime only a few mins.
Brand is rimmel which is cheap.
General Comments
I only got Rimmel Hide The Blemish as emergency 'I've run out of concealer and needed to buy a cheap one quick!' This concealer does not hide spots but maybe it might help take out redness and would work well with foundation and some powder. But do not wear this on its own. I really think it didn't blend in well to skin which made me paranoid of causing premature ageing due to increased pressure of rubbing into skin.
Even for under eye, I get frustrated and resort to using light coloured eye-shadow or the collection 2000 light diffusing powder which I feel works wonders. (even though I only bought this, too as a cheap-quick-fix solution- well done collection 2000!!)
Don't buy this unless you're desperate and it's the only concealer left in the shops at your budget!
