Product reviews of Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing 01 Light
Review: Good stuff!
Beauty product: 4 Stars
This concealer is really good stuff! A few things to note about it: It's thick so you don't need much. "Warming" it between your thumb and index finger for a few seconds makes application much easier. The concealer usually looks fresh until lunch - sometimes I use the warmth of my finger midday to gently massage what I already applied in the morning and it seems to refresh itself. It's great sized to take in your purse. I've tried many concealers, mostly from drug stores, and this is by far better quality. Lasts a really long time, too so don't let the price hold you back - excellent product! Review: Good, but not great

This concealer offers good coverage, but the consistency is horrible. At normal room temperature the concealer in the pot becomes cakey and impossible to apply. I have to warm the pot slightly with my hair dryer to get a manageable consistency. When it's really warm it "sweats" and becomes a little greasy. On the plus side, a little goes a long way and this product should not be applied heavily. If I accidently apply a little extra, it becomes cakey around the eyes. Overall, it's good but requires some finessing. Review: Like it

It has a very good consistency and blends pretty well. It covers dark circles pretty well and on blemishes it makes them vanish. The only thing is that the medium shade is too dark and the light shade is too light, for my skin tone, and in order not to look like I am wearing a mask, I need to blend both to get my shade. But overall it is a very good product, if ever they make a shade in between it would be perfect. Review: Not sure if it is worth the money...

Well I for one think $18 is a little much to spend on makeup. Therefore, I read many reviews here on amazon and some on ulta's website. I was definitely willing to spend the $18 on this concealer after reading all of the reviews. As a girl with constant TERRIBLE under eye circles I figured this was the concealer for me. There is never a morning where I wake up looking healthy. I constantly look sickly and tired. After reading some of the reviews it seemed like others who suffer from the same problem really enjoyed this product and agreed it worked miracles. It works fairly well if used with some sort of yellow tinted concealer as a base. However I am still on the fence because for $18 I would expect this product to work miracles without the help of another product.
So in conclusion, I think if you are an average person who wakes up now and again to some dark circles, this would probably work fabulously for you.... If however, you are like me and are plauged for life with the bothersome, "tired eyes", know that a yellow tinted concealer is a must for this product to help hardly any.
Review: One of the best out there

I have tried a lot of concealers and have several in my case right now. Nothing beats Boi-ing for covering severe dark circles and it gives my entire face a fresher and younger look. Boi-ing lasts longer than any other concealer I've tried, although it is essential to pat it on and blend very patiently. If you try to rub it in, it will drag across your skin and look cakey. If your skin is at all dry under the eyes, it's also essential to use a light moisturizer (I highly recommend Origins Eye Doctor) before applying or Boi-ing will crinkle into your fine lines. You can add small amounts of moisturizer without disturbing the concealer if you need to refresh during the day. This product is probably not for you if you do not have a lot to cover or if you find it making crinkles look worse, as it is quite opaque, so try it on in the store (try Sephora as they have well-lighted mirrors) before you fork over $18.
