When it comes to concealers, there are differences. Some of them are designed to simply cover imperfections and even out skin tone. Others, however, do that and more because they contain skincare ingredients that treat and diminish dark circles while you wear them. And who *doesn’t* love getting two products in one?!
If you are on the hunt for a concealing product that holds true to its claims of kicking dark circles to the curb, you can call off the search! Here are six popular picks to consider adding to your beauty collection.
1. Maybelline Instant Age Eraser Concealer
This cult favourite has hundreds of thousands of five-star reviews and is regularly featured on TikTok. It conceals and moisturises (which reduces the appearance of fine lines) and contains goji berry extract – a powerful antioxidant that helps to brighten the area for a wide-awake look.
2. Inglot All Covered Under Eye Concealer
This formula is loved by make-up artists and has an easy-to-blend formula that delivers a silky-smooth finish. Not only great at covering things up, it also helps to treat under-eye bags thanks to the combination of antioxidants that it contains, namely saffron and vitamin E.
3. Fenty Beauty Bright Fix Eye Brightener
So lightweight you won’t even know you’re wearing it, this popular product does it all! The formula is sheer but buildable and can be applied with tools or just your fingers when you’re in a rush. It’s also sweat, humidity and crease-resistant so you know it’s always got your back.
4. Revlon ColorStay 5-In-1 Skin Awaken Concealer
This concealer is a heavy lifter in the game, as it not only covers imperfections and goes on with ease (thanks to the sponge applicator tip), but also contains vitamin C and caffeine, both of which are often found in eye creams because of their eye-area brightening properties.
5. Sisley Paris Phyto-Cernes Eclat Eye Concealer
This product contains ultra-pure pigment for next-level coverage, but, more importantly, boasts extracts of red vine, arnica and ginkgo biloba, which work together to combat signs of fatigue, such as discolouration and puffiness. The cooling metal massage applicator tip also soothes as you are putting it on.
6. Essence Conceal Like A Pro Colour Correcting Palette
If you want to conceal your dark under-eye area the way the professionals do, you need to invest in colour-correcting concealers. These come in different colours, which all help to neutralise certain concerns. Red is the one that should be used to conceal this area and make it brighter.
