    5 Stars CIAO DARK CIRCLES! 21/11/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Hides dark circles

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Nothing

    I rarely get a good night’s sleep, but when I do I still manage to get dark circles under my eyes. My mum had the same problem, so I’m guessing it’s genetic. Last time I visited the Debenhams counter, I told them that I had really dark circles under my eyes; they were quite shocked that I had dark circles and told me how well I hid them. I usually use a no 7 cream foundation on top of my Chanel foundation to hide the dark circles, but I wanted to try out a concealer designed to hide dark circles instead of using an everyday foundation. I had read several reviews on the Benefit Bo-ing, and ... more

    4 Stars Boi I Like My Boi-ing 12/12/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great coverage, blends well, good on its own, don't need much

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Doesn't cover spots well at all

    ** The Product ** Boi-ing is Benefits industrial strength concealer. It is available in 3 shades; 01 - the lightest, 02 - medium and 03 - the darkest. I have 02 and although I am quite pale skinned and thought the sales assistant was nuts when she recommended I use this shade, it is a pretty good match. For this reason, I would recommend that you sample some before making your final purchase. What Benefit say about this concealer: You name it, Boi-ing hides it! This industrial-strength concealer camouflages dark circles, shadow and discolouration for a seamless, natural-looking finish without ... more

    4 Stars Boi-ing! And the circles are gone! 24/02/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Actually covers dark circles; good staying power

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Easy to apply too much; Can look cakey on dry skin

    I am a big sufferer of dark circles - apparently it's a genetic thing, because no matter how much sleep I get, they still plague me. A good concealer is essential for me and Benefit's Boi-ing is so far the best I've come across. Benefit make massive claims about the effectiveness of this, saying: "Say good-bye to circles and shadows around your eyes with boi-ing. Our industrial-strength concealer camouflages those pesky "problems" without creasing, smudging, or wearing off." I have to admit that, compared to most of Benefit's other excitingly packaged products, Boi-ing may appear a tad on the ... more

    2 Stars I'm not go-ing to buy any more boi-ing 18/01/2009
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages covers dark circles, staying power

    Disadvantages Disadvantages made my skin look shiny and draw attention to the area

    I bought Benefit's Realness of Concealness kit a couple of months ago, which contained small sizes of five of their products, one of which was their Boi-ing concealer. Marketed as an 'industrial strength concealer', this product is designed specifically for use under the eyes. Benefit also claim that this concealer will disguise problem areas without creasing, smudging or wearing off. Usually the concealer would come packaged in a round plastic tub, but as mine was part of a kit, mine was actually just a small amount in a little tray inside the kit itself. It comes in three colours - light ... more

    5 Stars Bye Bye Bad Skin 12/03/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to use, hardly need any, great coverage, lasts ages

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    I have what you could call les than perfect skin, I have dark circles under my eyes (thanks Mum!) and I never seem to have less than a couple of spots here and there. Luckily my foundation pretty much buries my spots, but my dark circles tend to be a bit more stubborn and they need some heavy duty coverage to look like they are not there. Over the years I have tried many different concealers and make up products, but when I went to using Benefit make up that I discovered Boi-ing. Boi-ing is billed as "industrial strength" concealer, and I think they really mean it!! I first tried some at the ... more

    5 Stars The Benefits of Concealing! 06/04/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent coverage, lasts all day!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May seem pricey, however I think it's worth the investment!

    By my own confession, I love make up. Ever since I was little and sat and watched my mum apply her make up before a big night out, I've been enthralled by the stuff. I love using make up to make myself feel good about my skin - especially because mine gives me so much trouble! It's pretty sensitive, a bit spotty, and I have these horrid bags under my eyes (yes, I should get more sleep, but hey). Anyway, for ages I had been trying to find a great concealer to cover up those nasty dark circles and I was failing, miserably. My skin is very pale, and a lot of cheaper concealers are slightly orange ... more

    5 Stars KISS GOODBYE TO DARK CIRCLES 22/01/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages covers blemishes, lasts a long time, lightweight

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    If you read my previous review, I have found a new love for Benefit recently and went on a bit of a spending spree. I brought various products that I use almost every day and some which are only rarely used because I can't bring myself to use them all up!Dark circles are one of my main issues as I work/study 7 days a week and do coursework into the early hours most nights. I hardly ever sleep if I'm honest hence why I'm on here so much! No matter how many remedies I have tried I just can't seem to get rid of them - not without ridiculously expensive products anyway.Luckily for me, my friend ... more

    3 Stars Benefit Boi-Ing 01/04/2011

    Advantages Advantages Long Lasting & Blends Well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The Coverage Is No Better Than Cheaper Concealers Ive Tried.

    A few weeks ago I decided to treat myself to some new make-up - Id recently had a big clear out of all my cosmetics and my bags and boxes were looking a bit bare so I thought Id restock with some Benefit sets. The first one I bought was the Confessions Of A Concealaholic and Ive been working my way through the products and reviewing them since I bought it so I thought Id try and finish with the final 2 this week. The first one of those products I got in the set was 'Benefit Boi-ing' which is an 'industrial strength concealer' according to Benefit so it seemed like just the kind of thing I ... more

    4 Stars For my dark circles only industrial strength will do! 23/10/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages covers up dark circles, easy to apply, lasts long

    Disadvantages Disadvantages a little pricey but does last, a little fiddly to open

    My dark, under eye circles are the bane of my life. I think I must have tried every lotion and potion promising miracle cures but alas non of these have made the blindest bit of difference. I get enough sleep and have a very healthy diet but unfortunately it appears that I have inherited these from my dear old dad and I may have to live with them. I wear glasses most of the time and as I have slightly dark lenses (as they change colour with light intensity) they are not so noticable. However I do on occasion wear contact lenses and I am very conscious of how dark my circles actually are. I ... more

    4 Stars Worth the price! 20/01/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent coverage, stays put all day

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pricey, takes a while to blend in

    Boi-ing is Benefit's 'industrial strength concealer', especially suited to covering up darkness around the eye area. It costs about £15.50 from the Benefit website, but can also be bought on the Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraser websites and at Benefit counters in those stores. I decided to splash out on this since I use loads of concealer to cover up my dark circles. At first I found it hard to blend with a brush as it's quite solid when you first pick it up with the brush. I found it easier to blend with my little finger since the heat from your fingertip will make it easier to blend. I ... more
