Under eye concealer

Typer Monkey · 18-09-2014 8:18am #1

Could somebody in the know recommend an under eye concealer to me? I am 37, very pale and want it to cover dark circles mainly. I'm currently using a Number 7 one but I find it a bit chalky and needs rubbing in which I'm not keen to do around my eyes.

I use Lancôme cleanser, serum, moisturiser etc and I tried their concealer yesterday but the lightest colour was too pale and the next one up too dark. It was also very milky and light.

Thanks in advance

I use Bobbi Brown under eye corrector (which is pink toned) and the concealer duo, a yellow-ish cream and setting powder. I was really dubious about just how pink and yellow both products are, until I used them. I find them fantastic for covering my dark circles, and they are DARK.

Some days I might get away with wearing one or the other, but if the circles are their usual bad self or I'm going out for a while and won't have time to touch up my makeup, wearing both together is the best option.

I'd recommend going to a BB counter and having them colour match you, if you can.

Shiseido sheer eye zone corrector is great, I bought it recently

I use the mac pro conceal and correct palette, which I love!

I'm currently using Vichy dermablend in the lightest shade and I really like it. It's the only one that doesn't crease under my eyes and the coverage is great too.

MAC Pro Longwear and Maybelline Fit Me are two fantastic concealers. I prefer the Maybelline, its more creamy, has great coverage and cost a lot less than than MAC one.

I think this clarins one is amazing http://www.clarins.co.uk/instant-concealer/0405711.html

I've the same problem as you and have tried so many but I havent since i got this one. Also its quite expensive, but I got it last Christmas and I still have loads of it left, even though I use it every day without fail!

I also got a touche eclat concealer at the same time - waste of money IMO, does nothing for me(but maybe Im using it wrong)

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. Never heard of most of those products so I'm very glad I asked

Collection Lasting Perfection - only €7 and the best product I've used!
