Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

Rimmel is always a big name in beauty so I did expect a lot from this concealer, but although it works well for some things there are bits that I wasn't too impressed with. ***What it Claims to do*** On the lid Rimmel state that this concealer can "effectively conceal spots, blemishes and under-eye circles". On the Rimmel website they also say that the concealer is "A creamy concealer stick that blends to camouflage dark circles and blemishes. ...
...shades only, I have mine in Ivory. ***Can it cover Spots?*** It can lighten the colour of your spots and make them less noticable but doesn't conceal them completely. Because it's so creamy, the concealer can be easily rubbed off when applied with other make-up such as foundation so always but your concealer on after you've applied your base. Don't get high hopes that this will cover that big red spot that appeared over night, it will only reduce ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

I bought this foundation following a recomendation from a friend, as i was looking for something to cover up any dark areas under my eyes to make myself look more awake and fresh. The product cost around £4 from Tesco, which seemed like a fair price as it does last quite a long time. (obviously depending on what you use it for) It comes in a stick with the same kind of design as a lip balm stick. The tube itself if mostly ivory, with a black base. ...
...for carrying around in a handbag or purse for top-ups. I bought the lightest shade, to combat my dark areas an found that it provided good coverage, was a nice shade and really provided the effect that I was looking for. I use it sometimes on my undereye area underneath foundation and was pleased to find that it went well underneath the foundation and provided a nice surface to work with other make up on. As i mentioned before, I did find the product ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

...to present to you........... Rimmel - hide the blemish I first discovered this product many moons ago in my school days when spots were a huge pain in the backside (blimming puberty eh?) All my friends had it, so I persuded my mum to buy me one, which thankfully she did and I still use it to this day. The product comes in the same packaging as a standard lipstick, cover over the top of the twist up/down stick, the top cover is beige with the ...
...Blemish written vertically. It also gives you information I quote "Effectively conceals spots, blemishes and under eye circles. and Dermatologically tested" - and it actually does this!! How to Use: I tend to use this before application of make-up, i.e. blusher, I simply roll the stick up apply onto the area I want covered, you can add as little or as much as you like, depending on the size of the dreaded zit and gently rub it in with your fingertips. ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

I was given this Rimmel Hide The Blemish concealer by my mum because she had purchased it from Boots and it came out a bit pale on her skin. I have quite fair skin but I still find it quite pale. I use it along with my normal Boots No7 concealer in a darker colour because you get a more natural look if you use the two shades together. The lighter (Rimmel) one is good for dark circles and for highlighting the light areas around your eyes because these ...
...face. I then use it again as a base to prevent shine on general spots and blemishes around my chin and forehead etc, but then have to put a bit of my No7 on on top just to make the colour a bit darker. It's very compact and portable in it's little lip stick shaped stick and although the lid doesn't screw off (it just pops off), it's still very secure and will survive being knocked around in your bag all day. Price wise, it's quite reasonable at about ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

...completely honest. **The brand** Rimmel is quite a cheap make up brand which i don't have very much of apart from the odd bottle of nail polish and this. I tend to think of it as old fashioned for the reason that it is the brand my mum usually uses. According to the boots website this comes in four different shades but i have seen more. The packaging for this is the same shape and size of a lipstick tube and it costs around £3.90 which is cheap for ...
...under my eyes and hides the dark circles BUT i tend to have dry skin so if i want to cover anything else it just makes it worse. One of these lasts me quite a long time but i suppose it depends on how much you want to cover up and how often you use it. Overall this isn't my favourite concealer but it is fine for the price and i think it will work on people better who do not have dry skin. Dooyoo and ciao xx ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

Every opinion that i have read about this product is good, well i am not going to follow the trend, as i feel that this product is not a good buy, and i would rather spend that few extra quid and get a more expensive, but more effective product. This product is cheap at £1.99, and lives up to its cheap price and does not give good results like the other concealors that i have tried in my time. The label claims it: "effectively conceals spots, ...
...this. To its credit there are a range of shades avaliable to suit most peoples skin tone,and also when a lot of the product is applied, under eye circles do fade considerably, and it covers blemishes well. BUT the product is clearly visible when first applied, and within an hour half of the concealor has come off. When you touch your face, half the concealor comes off, leaving more on your hands than on your face where you need it! The concealor ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

Having tried to hide the black rings around my eyes with many more expensive products such as YSL Radiant Touch and Clinique's concealer, I still revert to my trusty old favourite of Rimmel's Hide The Blemish As well as being excellent to use around the eyes I first used it for hiding those spots that always seem to appear at the worst possible time. The packaging is cheap and cheerful. It is in a lipstick like container and the best way to apply ...
...from the stick as it tends to drag on your eyes ... and also could spread any infection from the spots that you are trying to hide. After all you don't want them to go forth and multiply do you. I did try a brush at one time but there's nothing like your good old fingers for maximum blending! It comes in several shades and I tend to find the sand one being most effective around the eyes and a slightly darker one for hiding the zits (the shade depending ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

...anywhere that sells makeup as rimmel is very common and this is always in their range. That includes superdrug, boots, asda, tesco, ebay etc etc! *IT LOOKS A BIT BORING* As the subheading to this section states, it looks a bit boring. It comes a pretty plain beige stick design, very simple and fairly attractive but again, a bit boring. Its fairly easy to spot in the shop, but its only little. Even so you do get quite a bit in the stick and it ...
...me and go mad for pretty packaging this isnt so great. I always prefer things when they are pink as opposed to beige, I don't know why! *WHAT'S THE PRICE LIKE?* Expect to pay between £2 and £4 depending on where you got it from. Some places such as Asda are much more bargainous. Of course, if you go to Boots, you get those lovely handy advantage card points that I love love love to bits! This is a very cheap concealer at only a few pounds, good ...

...with medical make-up and not Rimmel but I have had enough blemishes to share my experience with concealer with the world! I bought this Rimmel concealer from Boots for about £2-£3, I can't say a specific price because it was so long ago I bought it. This just proves to you that this concealer lasts and lasts! I have had mine for ages now because a small bit goes a long long way. I bought mine in 001 shade - fair and this suits me and many of my ...
...You just add a touch on your finger and apply to the blemish and gently rub in. It works wonders honestly! Not only does it work on blemishes, I use it once or twice a day under my eyes to brighten my face up a bit and God does it work! I mean at the end of the day when your mascara is everywhere but your eyelashes, a quick wipe of concealer underneath just does the trick. I would really reccommend this concealer and am just so glad to have found ...

...never been let down by rimmel before so I thought why not give it a go?? The colours were sand - Pale skins Natural Beige - Dark skins Ivory - tanned skins Soft honey - Pale-tanned skins I chose sand and paid for it at the counted. When I arrived home I put on my foundation (boots 17 tinted moisturiser is a god send!!) I then applied a light amount to my under eye area. A tip is to use your fourth finger because it gives light application and ...
...Then a put it on my spots. I then put on the base of my nose. Its very easy to apply because its like a crayon so its not messy, so you just draw it on like a pen. I then rubbed in all the bits. My eyes looked fab. It really blended in and you could oly see a tiny bit of darkness. Then I blended in the spots. Another tip when blending blend, blend then blend some more!! But it made my spots really stand out. It made them look crusty(soz 4 that ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

Rimmel Coverstick is one thing I couldn't do without when it comes to makeup. Now I'm not one of those who spends hours each day putting makeup on but I do tend to have a 'spotty' skin. It will break out in little spots at the least provocation. This coverstick comes in several different shades and I find that the lightest one suits my colouring. It is very easy to use. You can just put it on like a lipstick and then gently blend the makeup into ...
...If you do get a darker ring round the edge of the spot that makes it look worse you need to blend the makeup in. Dampen your finger very slightly (perfectly clean finger, of course) and gently blend in the edges. This is where the addition of a very light covering of foundation comes in handy. I also find it excellent for putting under foundation. Just blend it into the areas you want covered and put your foundation cream on top. This is so cheap ...

Review of Rimmel Hide The Blemish

Rimmel hide the blemish is amazing stuff. It's the only concealer I can find that is actually the right colour for my skin- nice and pale! I'm always getting spots, and this is the only way of covering them up. If I use any other type of concealer it will simply either come off, or leave dark patches on my skin, which only enhances the spot or blemish. The Concealer actually helps to get rid of the spot as well! It dried it out until it goes away. ...
...that the price has gone up. Nevertheless, it is still excellent value for money at only £1.99! You can get hold of Rimmel Hide The Blemish at any good cosmetics store or pharmacy and I tell you something, if you're a spot sufferer like I am, it'll make your day! ...

The Rimmel hide the blemish stick, is just that a stick concealer. It is great value for money and comes in a great range of shades, even one for me and I normally have difficulty as I have very fair skin. It comes the odd blemish well, I often just use a touch instead of fountain. it glides on easily and blends in well. It is also great at covering up dark circles. It is long lasting, a touch normally lasts all day.The container fits in to a make ...

...not a big fan of Rimmel products but fancied giving it a try, as good concealers are quite difficult to come by! Rimmel make-up is available in Boots, Superdrug and loads of smaller chemists and Hide the Blemish costs roughly £2.99. My Experience - I use concealer after foundation just to cover anything that isn't hidden by my base and found this to be great at blending in and covering any redness. It also never made any spots worse or last any ...
...that in a strange, after a few hours of wear, it made areas of spots more noticable, as it began to flake off and make it look a bit like I had some kind of odd skin condition as opposed to just a few spots. Having said that, the short term solution would be just to re-apply it, but I (like a lot of people) am not all that happy about subjecting my skin (especially spotty areas) to several layers of product. I would rather just apply concealer once ...
