Reviews mention

  • Weightless, blurring complexion finishes
  • Creamy, brightening concealer formula

  • Hydrating, glossy lip oils
  • Occasional concealer creasing under eyes
  • Inconsistent, yellow‑leaning shade undertones
  • Clumpy, flaky mascara texture
  • Premature formula separation and odor

Kosas earns strong reviews for delivering natural, skin‑improving makeup that works—standouts like Revealer Concealer and Cloud Set powder blur, brighten, and wear weightlessly—while Air Brow and Wet Lip Oil draw repeat loyalty. Reviews also flag drawbacks: occasional creasing or dryness with concealer, overly yellow undertones for some complexions, clumpy mascara, glowy finishes that can run oily, and reports of products separating or smelling “off” over time.

  • I really wanted to like the collagen spray but it made me sooo oily and I got a slight break out from it. Will be returning to sephora cause my skin hated it after 2 uses.

  • Their concealer was super good at first until it started creasing. I was a bit disappointed bc I've seen so many good reviews on TikTok but it personally didn't live up to my expectations. I still use it bc I paid for it (lol) but I'm sure there are better concealers out there that don't crease.

  • I didn’t really get the hype with the concealer tbh. Their packaging is super cute but I found that their neutral toned shades were too yellow /warm tone for me and experienced creasing after a while. I liked their powder though!

  • I'm a big convert! I was skeptical because of experiences with other clean beauty brands, but I am absolutely obsessed with their foundation, concealer, and brow gel. The foundation and concealer have amazing coverage and don't make my skin feel weighed down or heavy. It might be placebo effect, but I really do believe the skincare elements have improved my bare skin. The brow gel has just enough hold to get me through the day. If you're super into bold and lux makeup, however, I don't think this the brand for you. Kosas's products are very soft and minimal (which I personally love).

  • in late 2022 I made the switch from my lifelong use of chemical / aluminum containing deodorants to natural deodorants and the transition was ROUGH. It took me so many tries and a handful of embarrassing moments to find the Kosas roll-on deo, and I swear I haven’t had body odor since. Everyone’s body chemistry is different so I wasn’t sure if this would work on me but I have even found myself FORGETTING to put deodorant on (after having this on the day or night prior) and not smelling at all. This one was a game changing discovery for me.

  • Not here for the makeup but for their deodorant. I had to find an alternative to my crystal deo because it just didn’t cut it in a highly humid climates so I was very happy when I found their Chemistry roll on and it worked!

    Does it stop you perspiring? No. But that is not what I was after. It completely eliminates any trace of BO and doesn’t have a funky perfumed scent, although it does have a scent- even the fragrance free option which I prefer. I’ve also tried the Wet Oil lip gloss in “Dip”. It is a perfectly adequate product but am not a gloss fan so I find the stickiness uncomfortable. The shade is lovely though, neutral with just a hint of colour.

  • I had purchased the Kosas concealer at Sephora. Before going in store to purchase I had shade matched myself online comparing it to my current concealer and I would say the online shades are spot on to real life. The concealer is creamy and hydrating. It doesn’t feel cakey on the skin either. I do have oily combination skin but I don’t find this concealer to be a problem. Love this brand so far and I’m curious to try their other products.

  • I really like the Revealer Concealer, but I actually use it more as a foundation when I want a little extra coverage. The formula is creamy, blends beautifully, and has a nice finish. It evens out my skin tone without looking heavy or cakey. It wears well throughout the day. That said, I don’t love it as an actual concealer. When used under my eyes, it tends to crease and feels a little dry, which isn’t ideal, so I use a different brand for under-eye coverage, but love this for the rest of my face. Unfortunately, the foundation didn’t work for me at all. It made my skin feel dry and itchy, which was bummer since I had high hopes for it. If you have dry or sensitive skin, I’d definitely test it before committing.

  • This is the only brand that actually has a good color match for me !! I’m a medium tan OLIVE color and no matter what brand I try it’s always a little off or a little warm. Not Kosas it’s perfect for me

  • Hands-down, one of my favorite clean skin care brands. I would say most of their products work really well for me, the only ones that weren’t my favorite was the liquid eyeshadow and the liquid highlighter. But other than that, the products seem to work really well. I do miss the old packaging style but that’s my only complaint.

  • Have has a great experience so far with this company's products. Love their Air Brow.

  • I really like the concealer from this brand! It has a good finish and blends well with other foundations that I wear. I usually buy the mini and find that it lasts a couple of months or more with almost everyday wear, so no need really to buy the larger size! Wish it came in more shades because the one I use is close but not perfect to what my skin tone is!

  • Great beauty brand. I use the reveal concealer, 10 second eye shadow, airbrow and lip booster all of which are repeat purchases. My absolute favorite though unexpectedly is their deodorant. I’ve tried numerous natural deodorants and theirs is not only highly effective but doesn’t mark your clothing. I just wish the packaging was more sustainable / recyclable. That’s the only reason my review is a 4 instead of a 5.

  • The Cloud Set Setting Powder is the best pressed powder I have ever tried ! It blurs my skin and, poof, my pores are gone !! It's crazy. I've repurchased it 3 times. I wish the compact has a mirror for reapplication throughout the day, but it's okay. The product is so amazing, I can overlook that lol

  • The tinted face oil is one of my favorite products. I'm also a fan of their lip balm and lipsticks. A lot of clean beauty brands miss the mark but Kosas sells great quality makeup.

  • The foundation, concealer, and Cloud powder are my favorites. Essentials in my skincare routine!

  • I think these products are made for anyone who likes no-makeup makeup but would say that it is mid-coverage. The concealer feels supple and smooth and does not flake or dry up at all yet lasts all day/night. Only reason it's not 5 stars is because I personally feel I need a little less coverage.

  • My favorite concealer! Stays all day but feels like you aren't wearing makeup. I feel good about the ingredients and it feels so hydrating on my skin

  • Devoted to the kosas concealer - great for olive toned skin, good coverage without being heavy at all. I don’t use foundation (just use concealer wherever needed) and it’s perfect for that
