Miracle quick fix 5 of 5 Ciao Users found the following review helpful

Advantages Hides redness

Disadvantages Needs carefull application

This is a miracle cream, most people know that to hide redness green is the best colour to apply (since they are opposite each other on the colour wheel these two cancel each other out) but this can be a bit of an unpopular technique so this cream is a soft yellow colour and works just as well.

I first tried this when i got a proper makeover done at the benefit counter, i wanted in invest in a few decent items for my make-up bag. The woman did one half of my face first so i could see the difference the products made and i was pleasantly suprised by this!

It comes in a small compact a bit bigger than a 50p piece, with a handy mirror in the lid. It is quite a 'heavy' cream that smells of sherbet (but not that you'd notice it when wearing it) and can be used to brighten up your eyes, mainly on the eyelid. It is 2.7g net weight and 0.09oz of cream, this doesn't sound much but a little goes a long way and one lemon aid will last you a long time.

It claims to instantly hide redness and discoloration to make eyes look younger and refreshed, and it genuinley does all this. My friends were always amazed that i always looked so wide awake after a night out and guessed that i just don't need much sleep, then i told them my secret quick fix of this! You don't need to use any other makeup to look refreshed but this works well with dr. feelgoodmattifying cream and get even which is similar but can be used for all over the face.

I love this, it stays in place all day without smudging or fading and makes a big difference to your whole face. You can also use it as an eyeshadow base to keep colour in place and stop that smudging, it's just as good as a base as a correcting cream.

The only problem is that you may have to practice the best way to put it on, i use a sponge because you have to blend it in very thoroughly so it does't cake and show up all you lines. This is pretty much solved by rubbing/heating the closed compact in your hands for a few seconds to soften the cream, problem solved!
