Rimmel London’s Multi-Tasker Concealer in 060 Honey is a liquid concealer designed for long wear and high coverage. With claims of being crease-proof, transfer-proof, and waterproof for up to 24 hours, it targets those who need their makeup to stay put through long days, humidity, or oily skin conditions. The formula is also vegan, which may appeal to shoppers looking for cruelty-free options at the drugstore level.
In practice, this concealer is best applied with a small brush or damp sponge for precise placement. The doe-foot applicator deposits a moderate amount of product, and a little goes a long way—over-applying can lead to a cakey look. It works well for spot-concealing blemishes, redness, and under-eye circles, though the latter requires careful blending to avoid emphasizing fine lines. The texture is relatively thin and sets to a matte finish, which contributes to its longevity but can be unforgiving on dry patches.
Key functional features include its long-wear claim, which holds up reasonably well on oily skin for 8–10 hours before any noticeable fading. It resists transfer onto masks or clothing to some degree, but not entirely—rubbing will cause some product to come off. Waterproof performance is adequate for light rain or sweat, but it’s not fully waterproof for swimming or heavy exercise. The vegan formula is a plus for ethical consumers, and the shade range, while limited, includes 060 Honey, a medium-deep shade with warm undertones that suits many medium skin tones.
One notable limitation is the shade range: with only a handful of options, those with very fair or very deep skin may struggle to find a match. Additionally, the matte finish can cling to dry or textured areas, so it’s not ideal for dry skin types. The 24-hour wear claim is exaggerated; while it lasts through a workday, sleeping in it is not recommended, and most users will see some creasing after 12 hours, especially in the under-eye area.
Compared to similar products like Maybelline’s Fit Me Concealer or L’Oréal’s Infallible More Than Concealer, the Multi-Tasker offers comparable coverage and wear but with a slightly thinner consistency. It’s less hydrating than cream concealers and more suited to oily or combination skin. Those who prefer a dewy finish or need a concealer for dry under-eyes might find it too matte.
This concealer is suitable for those with oily or combination skin who need a long-wearing, matte concealer for spot-concealing or under-eyes, and who value vegan formulas. It is not suitable for very dry skin, those who need a wide shade range, or anyone expecting true 24-hour wear. Overall, it’s a solid drugstore option for long days, but it requires a good skincare prep and blending technique to avoid looking flat or cakey.
