The verdict
A creamy, eye-cream-based concealer with buildable medium coverage in 38 shades; dry, textured under-eyes may see creasing.
Revealer is Kosas's doe-foot concealer, built on what the brand calls an eye cream base with caffeine, hyaluronic acid, peptides and arnica, and sold in 38 shades across cool, neutral, warm and olive undertones. Kosas promises medium, buildable coverage with a fresh, radiant finish and says it is silicone-free, non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin. Testers praise how easily it blends and how long it lasts, but some with dry or textured under-eyes report creasing and a dry, cakey look once powdered.

How it scored
Five factors, weighted for makeup. Here’s our working.
Beauty score out of 10. Brands can’t pay for placement — ever.
Kosas promises medium, buildable coverage with a radiant finish, and PureWow testers and a Floating in Dreams blogger found it creamy and easy to blend, though Simply Saima saw it settle into fine lines.
One blogger says it still looked great after 12+ hours of teaching, while another saw the unpowdered side separate and crease within two hours.
Thirty-eight shades from very light to rich deep, each tagged cool, neutral, warm or olive, is broad for a prestige-leaning concealer.
At $32 for 0.18 oz (5.3 ml) it costs about the same per milliliter as NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer and well above drugstore favorites.
Award-winning and widely hyped, with dedicated YouTube reviews dating back to 2020, but bloggers and testers split on how it behaves on dry, textured under-eyes.

I like the way this look, it isn’t too greasy and it doesn’t crease easily either. I can wear this to work and even after 12+ hours of wear this still looks great.
Although way more full coverage than my go-to (Maybelline Age Rewind), the Kosas concealer still felt surprisingly lightweight and lasted on my skin much longer than I’m used to. It oxidized a bit after it dried, slowly turning the color a little darker than my skin tone
No matter how I applied it, though, the finish was disappointing, as it settled into fine lines and creases, emphasizing both texture and dryness.
To me, this concealer is definitely one of the better ones in my collection, but I don’t think I’d put it in my list of favorites. That’s because this is a little more coverage than I need and the finish isn’t perfect either.

FAQ
Kosas lists 38 shades, from Tone 0.5 N (very light, neutral) to Tone 10.5 N (rich deep, neutral), each labeled cool, neutral, warm or olive. The brand also offers a shade-finder quiz on its site.
Kosas describes medium, buildable coverage with a fresh, hydrated, radiant finish. One blogger with dry skin found the finish closer to satin and said it covered under-eye darkness and redness easily.
Reports vary. Several PureWow testers and a Floating in Dreams blogger saw little or no creasing, even after 12+ hours, while a Simply Saima review found it settled into fine lines and looked dry once powdered. Testers who saw creasing reblended it or set it lightly with powder.
Kosas says the formula is dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin, and that it was safety tested not to clog pores. It is silicone-free but does list rosemary and fennel oils in its ingredients.
