Ok, I've never had a problem with creasing concealer. Until recently. My routine: I usually moisturize then apply a fave primer (I do put it under my eyes) I've been using macs prolongwear for years, then I set with Anastasia Beverly Hills banana shade. I blend out with a beauty blender and use a brush for the powder. I recently changed to nars creamy concealer but no change. Any ideas??

What under eye primer are you using? I've recently starting using smashbox hydrating under eye primer and it has made a difference to the look and longevity of my concealer.

I was just using my usual primer, for special occasions I use hourglass then normally I switch between nyx velvet angel and porefessional.

A moisturizing eye cream saves me everytime. Along with being light handed with setting powder for undereye area.

Try doing what Shelley suggested and using a primer just for under eye area such as smashbox or benefit stay don't stray. Hope it works for you!

Also forgot to add...applying too much concealer will also cause creasing as well.

I've heard if you spray some setting spray to your brush before you blend your concealer it will help with the creasing

I actually have this problem as well and I've changed up how I apply my face makeup so it doesn't happen... I prep my face with my primer and let it set then I put my foundation on everywhere but under my eye... then I take this creamy eye primer I have and prime under my eye with it and then apply my concealer on top and set with powder... I find that using my finger to blend under the eye works best for me then I take a dry beauty blender and finish it off.
