As a result, I have to use a lot of concealer, but the concealer always ends up caking or creasing. The MAC Long Wear Concealer is simply the best! It's so moisturizing and doesn't leave a white cast even when applied under the eyes to cover dark circles. It even applied smoothly in the winter when my skin was extra dry. The second advantage is its great staying power. Moisturizing concealers usually don't last long, but the MAC one is hydrating yet long-lasting. I only need to reapply my makeup after about 6 hours. The third advantage is the natural look! This may vary from person to person, but I really dislike thick, cakey coverage. The MAC concealer blends in seamlessly and looks smooth and natural. Most importantly, it doesn't sit on top of my foundation but melds in perfectly.
ConsThe downside, as mentioned in the pros, is the sheer coverage. It can't conceal things like acne scars or dark spots that need heavy coverage. It only works for lighter discoloration like freckles or dullness. The second downside is the packaging. This is so frustrating that I almost want to contact MAC directly. The pump-style packaging makes it hard to control the amount dispensed, and product always gets stuck in the opening. As a concealer, I only want to use a small amount, but it always dispenses way too much, and I end up wasting a lot. The third downside is the strong yellow undertone. It can make the coverage look a bit sallow. Those who don't like yellow-toned concealers should avoid this one.
Tip1. Since it has a strong yellow undertone, it works great when color-corrected. Use a pink color corrector for dark circles, a purple one for the corners of the mouth, and a green one for blemishes, then apply the MAC concealer on top for a flawless look. 2. When dispensing the concealer, just barely press the pump - use the lightest touch possible. That way, you'll get just the right amount, instead of wasting half of it.

While it may struggle to fully conceal prominent blemishes, it effectively hides issues like acne scars and light discoloration.
ConsThe pump dispenser... releases more product than needed, making it difficult to control and often resulting in excess that needs to be wiped away with tissue.

But this one has a lot of moisture, so when you apply it on your hand, you can really feel it gliding on smoothly. At first, I was worried that it might not cover my skin well. However, this has been the best concealer I've tried so far. I have some acne scars and freckles, so I'm very particular about how my skin looks when I apply makeup. But ever since I started using this, I've just been finishing my look with this concealer after my foundation or BB cream.
ConsThe case is made of glass, so I'm a little worried about carrying it around in case it breaks. Other than that, the amount of product is great, and it does an excellent job as a concealer. It's amazing!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros[Excellent Coverage] The texture is moisturizing and applies thinly, but the medium coverage was satisfactory. It was effective in covering under-eye dark circles and didn't crease much in fine lines. Although it has a thin consistency, it was able to cover redness to a certain degree, even though I thought it might lack coverage for blemishes. [Long-Lasting] It applies moisturizing but also has good staying power, so it was fine to apply all over the face in a thin layer. When applied thickly, the wear time decreased and it would start to look patchy, but even with a thin layer, it provided sufficient coverage, so the patchy look didn't occur often. [Applies Thinly] Due to the thin application, I was able to spread it all over the face without a heavy feeling, even when using just one pump. One pump was enough to cover the entire face, as it spreads out very thinly. This is quite convenient.
Cons[Inconvenient Packaging] The packaging was very inconvenient. One pump dispenses too much product, and the opening gets dirty quickly. So I often end up wiping off excess with a tissue. The formula is thick and doesn't wipe off easily even when rubbed. I have to clean the opening every time I use it, and a makeup remover is necessary when it dries up. The same issue applies to makeup palettes.
Tip[How to Hygienically Store the Product] The opening gets dirty quickly, and if not cleaned regularly, the product dries up and becomes difficult to wipe off. Cleaning it every time you use it, though a bit of a hassle, seems to be the best way to use it in a clean and hygienic manner. Since it's in a glass container, be careful not to drop and break it. [Controlling the Amount = Controlling the Pressure] One pump doesn't seem to dispense much, but the amount of waste is actually quite significant. It's best to apply it in small amounts by controlling the pressure carefully. [Perfect Brush Pairing] The Hwahae 948 brush is a perfect match! Size 1 is great for blemish coverage, size 2 for under-eye dark circles or veins, and size 3 for highlighting around the lips, brow bone, and nose bridge.

Its coverage and lasting power are great, and it is the most moisturizing.
ConsI don't understand why they used a pumping mechanism. The amount control is terrible, which is a shame.

ConsIf you drop it, it will shatter with a loud crash... I was really startled.
TipApplying it before foundation creates a very natural-looking skin finish. And using a brush to apply it makes it go on much more thinly.

I used it as a highlighter and dark cover on top of my foundation, and it worked great.
ConsI have sensitive skin, and after using this, I experienced a terrible breakout. The same thing happened when I used MAC's Mineralize Liquid Foundation. I'm not sure what ingredient caused the breakout, but if it weren't for the acne, I would have been completely satisfied.

It's moisturizing and the color is quite bright, but it still covers well. I have combination skin that tends to get matte, but the concealer doesn't emphasize that at all.
ConsThe product quality has no downsides, but the pump is difficult to control the amount.
TipUsing the MAC Prep + Prime Moisture Infusion Lotion and the 195 Brush creates an amazing combination. It's impossible not to have a flawless makeup application.

It didn't feel overly dry or like it was sucking up all the moisture, which was nice. And yet, the skin texture looked improved.
ConsHowever, it's a pumping type and the amount control is too difficult 😢 Pressing it is hard to control the pressure! It has to be applied in small dabs... I wish this aspect could be improved!
TipIt makes the skin texture look better. So I use a separate concealer under the eyes, and then brush it onto the cheekbones and inner cheeks! The coverage is also good. I bought the nc15 since I have a bright complexion (used only in the inner areas anyway), but if I had gotten the nc20, I think the redness would have been better covered. But I'm still satisfied!

It is much more hygienic compared to other pot, tube, and stick types.
ConsThe smell is unpleasant. I am very sensitive around the nose area, and after applying it, I noticed something. That's my own fault, but I also chose the wrong color.. I've only used it twice, and I already want to return it.. To be honest, I'm disappointed.
