IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer, Highly Pigmented and Water-Resistant with Long-Wearing Finish

Product Information

My under-eye area is probably one of my biggest insecurities; I’ve had dark circles and tear troughs since I was a child, and have spent tons of money on eye creams and concealers looking for products that could help reduce their appearance. My circles have a purplish-brown hue to them, and this combined with my tear troughs can often make me look more tired than I am. I still haven’t found an eye cream that I like, but I have found a couple of concealers that work well for me.

And when it comes to concealers, strategic placement is key. After a more “lifted” look? Simply drag the product onto your cheekbones, underneath your contour and voila, you have yourself a Bella Hadid-inspired look in seconds. Need to clean up your brows, eyeliner or lip liner? Grab a flat concealer brush and cover up the messy lines in an instant. And of course, no 90's lip is complete without a little dab of concealer. use of the content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not cause injury to any person or entity. This NARS concealer earned high marks during our test—especially for how it covered blemishes in addition to brightening the under-eye area. It works beautifully to camouflage dark circles and discoloration thanks to the buildable full-coverage formula, and we love that the finish is a soft matte, meaning that it's not as dry or flat as other matte options. And despite being a matte formula in a pot, the texture is surprisingly creamy, making it very easy to blend. While it can emphasize obvious dry patches, we found that it looked incredibly smooth in general. It also works beautifully to cover red blemishes and control oil surrounding breakouts.

Using a concealer brush, apply the product to the under-eye area by drawing a triangular shape, with the triangle’s point towards the cheek and its base along the eye. This method works to add a glow to the under-eye area for a lifted look to the skin. Key Benefits For pimples: Mellinger likes using a small brush to tap on some concealer to the center of the pimple. (Her go-to is Anastasia Beverly Hills Brush 3 Liner Brush.) She then uses a small fluffy eyeshadow brush to blend out the concealer and set it with setting powder, which Mellinger also calls a post-application must.

Not to mention, professional MUAs and beauty enthusiasts alike hail concealers as one of the most versatile makeup products. Although traditionally they pair well with foundation, tinted moisturisers and other complexion products, they're also great to wear on their own for the ultimate “your-skin-but-better” result. My under-eyes looked bright and hydrated, thanks to the cucumber, hyaluronic acid, and hydrolyzed collagen—these ingredients work to nourish and plump the skin subtly. In my opinion, the concealer has a liquid texture and finish that looks really natural and skin-like, while providing coverage that can conceal dark circles and hyperpigmentation in no time. This product can also be used as foundation, and I totally see why: it’s incredibly pigmented, you need the *tiniest* amount of product, and the finish is so natural that applying it all over is practically a no-brainer. Since my dark circles have a different hue than the rest of my skin, using this shade all over my face didn’t make sense for me, but if I used a shade that hid my dark spots, I could wear this product as a foundation easily. To compile this list, our team of editors and contributors spent hours researching the best products on the market in this category before selecting top-rated options to put to the test in our lab facility in NYC. During our test, we evaluated each concealer based on its texture, coverage, staying power, shade range, and value. Those that impressed us the most across these attributes appear on this list. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but creasing is natural if you yourself have creases," says Chanel. "And that’s okay! Making sure the product is evenly distributed in the crease and set with a hydrating, non-drying powder is key. However, if you don’t have under-eye creases and seem to still see some creasing in your makeup, then make sure you’re letting the product set properly before blending. And though it feels counterintuitive, use less product. An excess of product is often the reason someone who otherwise has a smooth under eye will see creasing in their concealer." We fell in love with this concealer during our test of the best drugstore concealers, and we've continued to love it throughout testing. The serum-like formula is very lightweight and blendable, and we were incredibly impressed by how skin-like it looked once it set down. You won't get super full coverage from this one, but it's versatile because you can sheer it out for light coverage or build it up to yield medium-to-full coverage. We did experience a bit of creasing in prominent creases under the eyes, though this wasn't a dealbreaker because you can gently tap out the creased areas with your fingertips without ruining the application. Not only does it look smooth and subtly radiant under the eyes, but some of our editors even use it as a foundation thanks to the weightless texture, beautiful coverage, and natural finish.While nothing beats a good night's sleep, under-eye concealers can make the biggest difference, whether you're after a more natural everyday look or a full glam moment. They're made to cater the delicate and thin skin around our eyes by providing just enough hydration and moisture while brightening the area to cover up under-eye bags and dark circles.
