can ne1 tell me which is best concealer available for strong dark circles under the eye?

Question

It's an inherited one, so going to bed earlier wont help :(

thanks for all your answers and tips :)

Answer 1

This is very simple. To cover dark circles, use a YELLOW based concealer... any brand. To cover red (blemishes), use a GREEN based concaler... any brand. Don't be afraid, they look like lipsticks and are either bright yellow or bright green. They work miracles. Simply dab a little on and pat it with your finger to smooth it around the area. then, apply some foundation or face powder on top of it and you will immediately see the difference.

I have dark black circles under my eyes all the time but are occasional made worse when I feel tired, sick or had more stress, [this is part of my illness].

I find Skin Doctors Circle Clear and Menaji Camo Camouflage stick available in 3 different shades to suit the individuals completion excellent otherwise I'm panda eyed.

I have these, yeah, best one is the Bourjois brush on one, can't remember what its called, but comes in beige pen with pink writing and pink see through lid. Created especially for these circles, can't say it covers them completely, but the light diffusing pigments really reduce them and mine are bad. I've tried everything. Use a good dark cicle reducing eye cream and try to get to sleep before midnight whenever possible, picking up 7-8 hours sleep minimum as often as you can. This stick costs about £6 and really works well, I've tried everything and anything else good will set you back nearly £100.

Answer 4

first of all find out what is causing the dark circles, if its' just late nights etc then get some ZZZZZZ in.
Mean while believe it or not haemorrhoid cream helps, it takes out the swelling and calms the underlying blood vessels.
Go easy on the concealer, too much and you have every crease looking like the Grand Canyon.

Answer 5

First you'll want to make sure that you are hydrating yourself properly. Then you want to be sure that you are not tugging or pulling on your eye area as this accentuates the problem. Then as a cosmetic you'll want to definately try a facial highlighter. It doesn't give a cakey appearance like concealers and it has properties that reflect light rather than absorbing it thus reducing the appearance of dark circles.

Mine are inherited too. I use Mary Kay's yellow concealer. It's the only one I've found that covers them up enough to hide them underneath foundation.
