Any know of good makeup to actually cover under eye blackness? Without actually creasing and creating wrinkles?

I use garnier skin renew roll on, but it doesn't really cover that well, and it creates wrinkles 😭🙅

If you aren't applying an undereye cream anything you apply to conceal will crease on you. Also applying too much undereye concealer will cause creasing as well. From the look of your pic you need a corrector to neutralize the darkness then go in with a concealer. Using a concealer alone might not be enough for you.

Agree with Shelley try a peach color corrector shade under your concealer to cancel the purple

Do you guys use eye primer and eye correctors that don't crease? recommendations?

Try like an anti- aging eye primer but over an eye cream - actually Wayne goss has a nice YouTube video to help stop makeup from creasing under the eyes.

I use a Bobbi brown color corrector under my foundation to get rid of the darkness. Then, if you have bags, you can apply a concealer 1-2 shades lighter than your skin on that line where the dark circle ends to get rid of the shadow from the bag, being careful not to get the concealer all over the dark circle or on the rest of your face. You're essentially highlighting to make the sunken area seem as high as the rest of your face. I use Lancôme's Maquicomplet which has a small brush applicator that's good for dotting on and is super pigmented, but I hate the packaging (mine leaks :/ ). Again, Wayne goss has a video tutorial.

As far as creams, I like Clinique all about eyes but right now I'm just using coconut and/or jojoba oil to moisturizer at night and in the morning a few minutes before applying makeup.

If you won't apply an eye cream before concealer, it will crease because the skin will absorb all of the moisture so it will look cakey.
