There was one thing about it, though, that was always a subject of irk for some people. Despite so many people using it to camouflage, it was never intended to be a concealer. It's a highlighter pen, the best in its class. But that's the thing, it's meant for adding luminosity, not for covering dark circles.

It's the same idea as the original, a click-pen with a brush. You apply it in the exact same way, but to cover your dark circles or blemishes. Use the original Touche Éclat over the High Cover to highlight - but only the eye area and other high planes, not that spot!
