Does anyone use Benefit Boi-ing concealer?

I have this, and when I put it on my face, it is really difficult to smear/blend it. (I use my fingers.)

Are there any other ways so that it can blend in easier?

Do you set it with any powder on top?

I use it and I've found it blends a lot easier if I use a primer. I use Smashbox Photo Finish primer. I always put it on before I put on my mineral foundation. A friend of mine told me not to use it around the eyes though. It doesn't blend well and creases. I use Bobbi Brown's corrector around my eyes.

Do you use your fingers, or use a brush?

I use my fingers for both. I tried it with a brush at first, but I was impatient and found I had more control with my fingers.

Do you try to "warm" up the product by applying it to your hand and then to your face, or just from pot to face? I like how it's really moist, but I find it difficult to blend.

I go straight from pot to face. But my face primer is silicone based and I think that helps blend it. I apply it to my cheekbones in a swirling motion to cover my rosacea and then dab it around my acne marks. The medium color blends fairly well into my skin tone. Then I use Bobbi Brown's corrector in Beige around my eyes. I've found this takes a bit more effort in blending or it'll crease in the lines around my eyes when I apply my foundation. I usually use a brush then and dab some of my mineral powder around my eyes to set the corrector. The concealer is usually set when I apply my foundation. If there are any spots that I still need to cover after I've applied my foundation, I'll use a stick concealer that provides more opaque coverage.

I have it. I'm not impressed and won't repurchase but it works for now. It creases around my eyes pretty bad. I also set it with Mac skin finish natural.

I used it a few years ago and found it better once I had some tinted moisturizer or some sort of foundation on my face already. I used a brush because I don't like to cross-contaminate that sort of product by using my fingers. I prefer more of a liquid concealer because it blends more easily, but once I got the Bo-ing in and blended it covered great.

I have it but am not really impressed. I don't think it covers all that great and like others have said, it's hard to blend. I'm currently using MUF and love it.
