What the gurus are saying

A skin-like finish with a little natural shine is what keeps coming up for this serum concealer, and it doesn't look cakey. It feels lightweight and hydrating, never tugs at the under-eye skin, and builds from sheer to fuller coverage, so starting with just a small dot can go a long way. The one thing to keep in mind is that it doesn't last as long as some would like.

"I've always loved my NYX concealer, when I run out of this I always restock on Amazon. [...] This one's a little more airbrushed looking, which also blends out quickly and gives a little more soft focus."

Top Pick: concealer

All 11 takes from Allie Glines

I was losing faith in the drugstore.. UNTIL NOW 😍

"The color is great, it comes in many different shades, so if there's a certain color you're looking for for your skin tone or for whatever thing you're trying to kind of correct, they have more shades. [...] I'm going to use my NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum just right over top, underneath the eyes."

The PERFECT Back to School Makeup (all affordable)

"I'm taking a bit of the Nyx Bare With Me serum concealer. It's so good and I'm just applying a bit of concealer under the eyes and a little bit through the T-Zone just to brighten it slightly."

I’ve Tried THOUSANDS—The Drugstore Makeup I Always Repurchase

"This is the best concealer from the drugstore hands down in my opinion. This is what works for me better than so many of my high-end concealers. I love it because it just looks like skin but you still can build the coverage. It's so stunning and very hydrating, looks especially nice underneath the eyes, and it just never fails me. I love that you can build the coverage without it looking or feeling cakey or heavy on the skin, or you can sheer things out."

"I love how much coverage and hydration you get with it, and you can use it all over your face as a foundation. A little goes a long way with just a dot you can achieve a lot. For me as a person that keeps things simple and minimal this is a magical product. The formula feels so high-end, which is why I love this. I love how it looks around my eye area especially. It wears well all day, isn't too thick or too thin, and works well both under the eyes and on the face."

"I'm going to reach for my NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum and I'm going to put it on the back of my hand. [...] This is going to help us kind of create a little more structure and have a little more precision. We're going to [...] brighten up the eyes and also take it under the cheekbones. We're using a little bit of product with a lot more precision to [...] brighten up the center and a bit on the chin."

Unexpected Holiday Makeup That Looks Expensive ✨

"It's been a minute since I've worn this concealer and I forgot how much I love this. It looks so good. [...] It's a serum concealer so it does kind of have a little more of like a skin-like finish. But you can build the coverage, which I love. And it kind of plumps the skin, too, which I also love."

BEST of the BEST Affordable Makeup with Johnny Ross

"This is the next Bare With Me Concealer Serum. If we didn't talk about how incredible this is, [...] just the littlest bit in there and it brightens up so so good. I've never had a concealer in my whole life stick into my routine the way this one did without a doubt. High-end and drugstore, yes, I love it."

Here's the BEST Drugstore Makeup RIGHT NOW 😍

"The NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum is what I feel like is the best concealer at the drugstore. It's just so versatile you can use this for every day but it's also going to give you great coverage if you want a little something for more glam situations. I love the texture of this, it's so beautiful. I use the shade light which I feel like is actually a pretty close match to my skin, so I actually use just one shade to conceal my under eyes and over blemishes."

Full Face of NOTHING NEW: GRWM!! 😘

"I'm back on the NYX Bare With Me Serum Concealer kick. This was literally the concealer that I wore for like probably 2 years straight. I swear it's such a good one, and then I just kind of switched up my routine a little bit, but now I bought a fresh bottle and it's back in my routine."

"What this does when it more closely matches your skin tone is you're able to conceal blemishes without them being highlighted, but when you do go around the eye area it doesn't look as obvious and makeup-y, you're not going to get a super highlighted and brightening effect. I like this for every day to just use something that matches. The shade light for me is perfect. [...] I also love to apply a bit on the eyelids just to cancel out any discoloration."

"Concealer, I really, really like this. This is something I would consider putting into my everyday makeup because it has that skin-like texture. It looks like skin. It has this shine to it. It doesn't look cakey on the skin, which some concealers can cake up and look a bit like old school [...] makeup. But this is really, really nice."

"The NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum [...] is $12 for 0.32 ounces, so you get slightly more product for a more than slightly less price. Concealer serum to me sounds more lightweight."

"It's giving pretty good coverage. I feel like it's going to be really hydrating, it's lightweight, it's not super heavy feeling. It definitely is covering like if you look at the difference from this side of this eye you can definitely see all the purplish discolorations under this eye and this eye it's definitely covered and concealed. [...] It never tugs at the skin of my under eye."

"Another one that I tried that I liked a lot was the NYX Bare With Me Concealer Serum. This is a serum concealer, so it's going to be more hydrating. I didn't find this one to be drying at all, it didn't settle in my wrinkles. It didn't wear as long as I wanted it to, but it was a good concealer."

"This is the Nyx serum concealer. [...] This is very very thin. It has caffeine. [...] This is not a very heavy coverage one and I don't personally go in for a lot of heavy coverage so that it works for me. [...] I've just used very little of it and I have just color corrected my face a little bit, [...] which looks very very natural."

"I'm going to do a little bit of spot concealing using the Bare With Me Serum Concealer from NYX. Light is a little closer to my skin tone. I'm just going to put this in areas where I have some redness, and I'll conceal underneath my eyes."
