Hi there!
I have the toughest time covering my under-eye circles and I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions.
Thanks! :D <3

Try the Bobbi Brown under eye Corrector! Amazing. Also, the Garnier Under Eye Roller really helps as a base to reduce puffiness.

I watched a video by xsparkage on youtube where she took an orange lipstick w/o shimmer lightly put that over the dark on her eyes, blended it out and then put concealer over the orange.

There is the link! I hope it helps! I'm definitely going to be trying this technique out when school comes back around!

@Shenadoah Oddly enough I tried that. It must have been the lipstick I used but it just made my under-eyes oily. Thanks though! :D

its not lipstick that sparkage used it was a "salmon " color concealer .. thats probably why it didnt work.. then put concealer ( slightly lighter than skin ) on top of that , prefreably a thin one so it doesnt crease, then set it with powder

you could also try Facestockholm Color correctors. Best I have found for correcting pigment under the eyes.

I have used Benefit Stay Don't Stray primer, and over it I used Benefit erase paste concealer. It works wonders!!

Try a yellow toned concealer than put a white concealer on top but only on the outside of the circle and blend, then set with a powder! You can also try Boi-ing concealer from benefit, that works wonders!

I have horriable under eye circles & I really love the Erase paste by Benefit ... I have tried a ton of concealers and that works the best if you are looking for a drugstore one try the Almay bright eyes concealer and eyelid primer that one works pretty good aswell.

I've recently starting using Erase Paste by Benefit as well and it does an amazing job. But really it depends on the colour of your under eye circles. Some people's are more purple, other's more blue, and some are more pink. Different colour correcting colours are used for each under eye colour :) You just have to find the right concealing colour for your circles

I really have problems finding a good concealer for dark circles too and as a matter of fact I'm still searching I have really bad dark circles so if anyone could recommend me one I would be so grateful

Have you ever tried a tattoo concealer? The one by hard candy is crazy amazing! The littliest bit goes a long way (learned that the hard way) and it has covered up anything and everything on my face - from circles to blemishes. And it stays on really nicely throughout the day :)

I have a terrible time myself it's in my genetics (thanks a lot mom and dad lol). I use a pretty weird method... I start with a face primer, then use an eyeshadow primer under my eyes. Then I use a light concelar about 2 shades lighter than my skin, then i use an additinal concelar but i much thiker one that is about 1-2 shades darker than my skin this helps not to draw attention to the under eyes. next i use a foundation that is also 2 shades darker than my skin only on my under eyes then i use a foundation as usual. After I do my power i then take a fluffy brush and apply loose power under my eyes so that all the liquids can set! Good luck hope you get some good results!

Xsparkage DID use lipstick. It was MAC's Morange lipstick. and using a salmon concealer is the actual thing to do but hey, you have to use what you got! I am saving to purchase some REAL salmon concealer.

i use benefit's "boi-ong" concealer, then i use "well-rested" by bareescentuals ontop of that to set it in, it has worked really well for me because i have really bad bags, and this helped a lot!

Ugh, undereye circles are my worst enemy. I have a system, it goes as such:
-UDPP on the eye AND undereye (key!)
-Garnier anti dark circle eye roller
-Foundation and concealer (Usually L'oreal True match and Benefit Boi-ing)
-Set with either my MSF natural and patting on with a 227, or with a powder puff and a matt powder.

That for me is what does the trick, any other way will crease, leave shadows or fade away.

I have the same problem I use the garner anti dark circle roller, then put MAC studio finish concealer and set it with a powder, if they are really bad I will use the MUF orange correcting concealer before the mac concealer.
