16HR Camo Concealer

I’ve been using this concealer mainly under my eyes and on some sun spots, and the results have been excellent: it provides effective coverage and stays put for hours. The product quality is very good, especially considering it’s an affordable option. It has a thick, highly pigmented formula that allows full coverage without needing to apply too much product. In terms of functionality, it’s perfect for covering blemishes, dark circles, and even darker spots. The matte finish helps keep the skin shine-free without needing excessive powder setting. The 0.2 fl oz size is compact but lasts a long time since a small amount is enough to cover large areas of the face. Regarding durability, it delivers on its promise: it stays in place all day without creasing or fading, even in warm weather. One area for improvement could be the quick drying time. If you don’t blend it immediately, it can leave marks or make even application difficult. Also, shade matching can be tricky, as some users report the color isn’t exactly as expected. Tip or Suggestion for Future Buyers: I recommend working in small sections and blending immediately after application to avoid it setting too fast. If you’re unsure about your shade, checking reviews with photos or choosing a slightly darker tone can help, as it tends to look lighter once applied.

The e.l.f. 16HR Camo Concealer is one of those rare drugstore finds that really delivers: it’s richly pigmented, provides full coverage, and stays put for hours without creasing or fading. It blends easily, dries to a matte finish, and does a great job hiding dark circles, blemishes, or redness — making skin look smooth and even. The formula feels lightweight yet effective, so you don’t get that heavy “cake‑face” feeling. Whether you use it under eyes, for spot concealing, or even to highlight/contour, it performs consistently day after day. Undoubtedly a 5‑star pick for its balance of quality, performance, and affordability.

I love the elf brand products because they offer the same quality that high-end premium products offer. I am a former professional make up artist and are usually use only premium make up brands. For example, some of the brands that I have are make up forever, Mac, Lancome, Christian Dior, Trish McVoy, Bobby Brown, and the Sephora brand. I love finding make up that works, and that changes the way you feel. Most cheap brands of make up the ones that you find at the drugstore don’t offer the same smooth and glowing appearance that a premium brand does. I have never bought concealer from the drugstore. I would find that the concealer would either be too thick and application was difficult due to the fact it would end up looking cakey, would not blend smoothly so you could see the parts that I applied it too so much that it was very obvious that I had makeup on, it wouldn’t offer full coverage or even coverage that could hide imperfections such as redness around the nose and or dark circles. The color options at the drugstore were limited or were not good for someone who has yellow undertones. It would offer beige, pink or dark undertones but they were never similar to a real skin tone. It would either be too light or too dark or have too much beige. I have scarring on my face and body. The scars usually required me to apply thick, cakey, concealers that rubbed off onto clothing, gave skin a plastic fake looking appearance and difficult to apply. They also were expensive and I always had to reapply them during the day because they rubbed off onto everything. This concealer is waterproof (I can take a shower and it doesn’t rinse off, I can get into the water and swim and it doesn’t budge, it is sweat proof, lasts 24 hours, is the only concealer I have found this year that I can use on my body and it doesn’t transfer to my clothes. The fact that it is TRULY transfer proof is such a huge solution for me as I can now apply it to my scars on the chest and neck and arms and I have never gotten any stains from it. I can rub it with my hands, use a cloth to see if it rubs off it doesn’t. It does require a makeup remover because it’s almost semi permanent and requires special cleansing to remove completely. You need to have a concealer brush that is high quality to use for application because it will apply very thickly if you use the included sponge application brush. It dries almost immediately so you need to start with very little product and carefully layer it so that you don’t over apply. It is not a concealer that offers a completely, natural, no makeup look. I have yet to find one that does. But this concealer does exactly what it’s advertised to do. It is cheaper than most drugstore brands but when you research best makeup brands ELF is consistently on the list as a brand that offers designer, premium quality products, that mimic and even beat the premium expensive brands. What’s great is that you can rely on the entire product line to cover all your makeup needs. I can go to Walgreens, skip the multiple aisles of drugstore makeup brands (don’t even have to look at the new makeup featured) I just go to the ELF aisle. I am able to buy concealer, mascara, eyeliner, blush, eyebrow pencil, eyeshadow, makeup removers, makeup brushes, and it offers a good selection of primers that you can experiment with. I am able to spend under $100 and be able to put together a huge makeup kit. When I lost my huge, expensive special makeup kit (I have different kits for certain situations) I was so upset. I had spent over $600 on the makeup in that kit, I had makeup that I saved up for and most of the makeup was $50-$150 dollars per item. I had spent a ridiculous amount of time researching, saving up and trying out all the makeup in that lost kit. I also had a huge event I was attending where I was going to be photographed and representing a new business. So I almost skipped going because I didn’t have time to get a professional makeup appointment (realized the kit was missing a few hours before event) no one was available on such short notice (Ulta, Sephora, Nordstroms makeup brand selections were all required to be booked in advance (I tried MAC, Christian Dior, Lancôme, Jean Juarez salon, Ulta in store makeup appointments were the same ) so I had to go to the drugstore for makeup or beg my mom to let me borrow hers. I went to store. I had read reviews from (makeup Alley, Ulta, new beauty & Allure to name a few, regarding drugstore makeup products that were as good as premium makeup) Elf was mentioned multiple times. So I went to the aisle and bought multiple options of concealers (3 different colors) all of the primers, 3 shades of blush, two mascara types, eye makeup remover for waterproof mascara, makeup remover for facial skin, and then I got a concealer brush, angled blush brush, foundation application brush, makeup sponge that could be used for all areas of face, eye lash curler. I couldn’t believe how cheap the makeup was (it is like Wet N Wild pricing but should be considered underpriced for the quality you get) my husband was really annoyed and concerned when he saw how full my cart was, I filled up an entire basket. He said it’s going to cost me $300 at least. Then I said let’s see. Went to the register and we both left the store in shock because I probably had purchased products that were worth $400 (yes makeup can easily add up to that amount especially when your buying all new stuff) but it cost us $120 dollars and we purchased over 20 items. I am hoping you try the concealer it is so cheap you can’t afford not to buy it and I recommend buying a few different shades of the concealer because you can mix them to match your skin tone perfectly and our skin color changes during the year. So try it! It’s a safe bet.

I am absolutely blown away by the e.l.f. 16HR Camo Concealer — it performs like a high-end product at a fraction of the cost. The coverage is seriously impressive. It hides dark circles, blemishes, and redness with ease, and once it sets, it does. not. move. The formula is thick but blends out beautifully with a sponge or brush without looking cakey. I also appreciate the wide shade range — I was able to find a perfect match for both highlighting and spot concealing. Best of all, it really does last all day without creasing or fading. Pro tip: a little goes a long way! Start with a small amount and build if needed. If you’re looking for a long-wearing, full-coverage concealer that won’t break the bank, this one is a total winner. It’s officially earned a permanent spot in my makeup bag!

It goes on like ghost white, but it does have good coverage that lasts. I have to put a darker cover up over the top because it makes me look so pale.

I’m not a big makeup girl, so when I do reach for makeup, I need it to be simple, quick, and effective—and this concealer checks all those boxes. This is the one I always reach for when I need a little help. It’s easy to apply, blends well, and gives great coverage without feeling heavy or complicated. A little goes a long way, which I appreciate, and it covers what I need without settling into creases. The matte finish looks clean and natural, and it lasts throughout the day without me needing to constantly check it. For someone who doesn’t wear makeup often but still wants a reliable product when needed, this concealer is a solid choice and absolutely worth it.

Great product, colour match was almost perfect. As for the ease of application I find it a bit harder to blend because of the Matt finish so I have to blend it right away to get a seamless blend, but definitely long lasting and gives a smooth finish and natural look. Definitely get quality and value for your money.

Primer is full coverage and easy to work with. The product definitely gives a matte finish, the color match is immaculate, no high odor but work in small sections as this product does dry very quickly

Muy bueno,cubre muchísimo ha muy buen precio,nada q envidiarle ha los de marcas de lujo!!

Bueno

This concealer is good for those with pale skin and want a concealer that’s exactly their skin shade and blends well with foundation! it gives a glow underneath my makeup. But it dries very quick so I make sure to keep my face well moisturized before apply this.

This is honestly almost slightly better than tarte. It’s got great coverage that you can later and looks smooth to finish on my not so young eye :) My great makeup bag discovery. Whooopie doo!

Unfortunately, this product is not peach but instead a very very light shade - almost ivory. I bought it hoping to add another light peach to my make up bag to help with under eye shadows but won't be able to use this.
