I have the Bobbi Brown corrector in light bisque and really like it, but I may try the creamy concealer to see how it does over it.

I JUST recently purchased the new MAC Studio Sculpt Concealer from the Well Defined collection & I must say -- I AM IN LOVE.

A little goes a LONG way & I don't feel like I have ANYTHING on.

Prior to my purchase of the Studio Sculpt Concealer, I used Lancome's MAQUICOMPLET Complete Coverage Concealer. Another product I HIGHLY recommend. If you are able to come across this product at a CCO -- PICK IT UP!

Good Luck!

I have some pretty out there dark circles under my eyes and have used a few various concealers over the years but none have really given me the coverage I want. I recently bought the Ben Nye Camouflage Wheel which has 5 seperate pigments to cover all means of skin discolourations from dark circles to blemishes and freckles. I rec if you want to fully cover out under a foundation but you really only need a tiny amount, it goes really far.

that also happens to me! specially when I use select cover up. I think some concealers are good for photos because they reflect light, but at the same time not so good behind the cameras.

I just got the Bobbi Brown corrector in light peach and i like it so far. I have blue tones under my eye, so the peach helps correct it, i think it looks better! Why do i have to have undereye circles?

My vote to the MAC studio sculpt concealer. Good coverage and not oily. (I don't have very dark circles under my eyes though so I am not sure about what's best for that.. but if you are just using it for normal coverage, the studio sculpt is the best I've found

Re: Best Concealer for DARK CIRCLES?

I use MAC's concealer NW for darkest part and NC for the rest of my eye. The trick though, I mixed it in with MAC's Fast Eye Response cream and it glides on and set it after putting it on. It won't crease and I have it all day.

So I've been wondering about this concealer, is it really worth the $70--I'm starting to dislike my Bobbi Brown kit for undereyes and I'm looking for something better, thoughts?

I use a number of concealers. My favorite has to be my Ben Nye Conceal-All Wheel(my color is NK-1). Im Latina and have crazy dark circles. I have tried all MAC concealers and was not impressed. I like Benefit's erase paste as well.

I LOVE the Cle de Peau.. I use it in Beige. The Honey color is great for those really dark /greenish/purple undereye circles. The texture is Magnificent and the color spread is amazing. They are expensive, but well worth the price for the coverage and color.

I also have Bobbi Brown's -- palettes and individuals, but some of the concealers and correctors (especially for older clients) are a bit too dry. MAC concealers are way too harsh for older clients.

For those in the UK, I found Space NK's own brand stick concealer did a good job on the very dark circles on my pale sallow skin, but as I've got older it's a bit too thick now

I don't usually have under eye circles, but I did have a BLACK EYE for about 2 weeks. Since I work at Sephora I have to look polished and perfect all the time so I was afraid I wouldn't find anything to cover my massive shiner, but the Kat Von D tattoo concealer worked like a charm. I also used a powder by Benefit over top the concealer, I think it's called Bluff dust.
When I used the concealer I would pat, not rub, then pat on the bluff dust and nobody noticed I had a black eye until I mentioned it. I sold so many Kat Von D concealers during those 2 weeks. haha.

I hate to show my ugliness, especially without make up, but just so you can see the difference those products made.........

Those pictures were taken the same day. You can still see a little bit of my black eye after I was made up, but considering the before picture I'd say that's a pretty damn good cover up!

My bruise has since gone away, I just hope my broken cheekbone heals quick too.

I just used the bluff dust because it was yellow and I needed the yellow to cancel out the purple.

Thanks! For my brows I just use a cheap pencil from Sally Beauty Supply called Femme Couture. I sometimes have to put a little red lipliner over top of it though because I can't find any color that suits me yet. haha

I've been reaching for Laura Mercier's Secret Concealer in #2 for my undereye circles. I got a sample of it from Sephora and have been using it more than my studio finish concealer. I think it's the creamier consistency or something.

I use Select Cover, and if you find the coloring isn't exact, there are Select Covers in peach- I will usually blend half and half.
