What you need is a concealer that is slightly yellow tinged. This counteracts the blueish tone of under-eye circles. They make concealeres especially for this and you can see that they're yellow. If you can't find one of those, you can always just choose a color that is slightly more yellow or golden than your actual skin tone.
As far as application, its best if you pat it into your skin rather than rubbing it on. you can pat it in using either your finger or a flat makeup brush with thick, hard bristles. After applying, dab a little powder to keep it from creasing.
Good luck!

Get a concealer or foundation a little lighter than your all over foundation and apply it to the dark circles ... also Bare Minerals and the LOREAL copy are both really good for covering dark circles, birthmarks, freckles, uneven skin tone and whatnot!
GOOD LUCK (:

The best concealer I've found is Clinique concealer stick. It only comes in one color but my dark skinned girlfriends tried it and got just as good if not better results than I did it. It goes on so creamy but not the least bit greasy.

Physicians Formula yellow concealer, followed by their concealer to match your skin color. It'samazing. Also, Bare Escentuals minerals makes a mineral concealer that is good. Just make sure you use yellow...it cancels out the dark. then cover it to match your skin tone.

I use one called "Rimmel hide the blemish concealer" by Rimmel London & it works for my skin. It doesn't get cakey after you apply it, just work your finger around it. I don't hear alot of people talking about rimmel so I dont really know if you can buy it in the US.
It was relatively inexpensive when I bought it. It was around $ 8 or something. I really like it. It's worked well for me thusfar.

I had really dark circles too, but i didn't go with concealers. I started drinking a lot of water and applying aleo vera lotion instead. It's worth a try and it's cheaper and healthier for your skin.
I hope it helps you too:)

What I did for this problem is that I went to MAC Cosmetics and they gave me a makeup for it and applied it at the store. I didn't buy it though because i had no money on me when I went =)
You might want to go to like Macy's or something and have them look at you.
