"I purchased this, and then read the earlier reviews, and thought that this was an item that was probably going to be returned. I have tried every concealer on the market, in the vain hope of covering the luggage I carry under my eyes, but to no avail. I received the kit this morning, on what can only be described as the hottest day for many years, and applied it at 9am. I was delighted with the immediate effect, it instantly covered my bags, and is still going strong now at 5pm. No concealer has ever managed to stay on this long, and in this unbearable heat, it can only be described as miraculous. I absolutley love it, and would 100% recommend it to anyone else to try. The packaging is fancy and elaborate, as other reviewer's have commented, but I had no problem whatsoever in opening the compacts."
