+1. This is the only under eye concealer I've liked. |
Yeah that's the only thing that hides my awful acne scarring. I put down corrector first, then put my foundation on, and use concealer over anything that shows through. And to make it last you set with finishing powder. For red hyperpigmentation you want green color corrector; darker skinned tones want peach or orange. Lavender is supposed to brighten dull skin, whatever that means. If it's just really dark bags, you want your corrector to be a shade or two lighter than your foundation. |

Bobbi Brown corrector/concealer |
You need a light reflecting Concealer for under your eyes. While Laura Mercier Secret Camo is perfect for regular concealing (I use it every day), it is too thick for under your eyes. I would recommend something like revlons under eye concealer (around $10) or the Clinique stuff mentioned above.
I bought touche éclat from YSL. The packaging is divine. The application is lovely. It made absolutely no difference other than being out about $60. Lisa Eldrige doesn't like it either (but loves their foundation). However, I've had friends who won't leave the house without it! I might try some cheaper alternatives first though. Good luck! |
I like this stuff in the morning, but it doesn't stay on my face, so it's useless to me. |
benefit erase paste! |
definitely this one. I've tried a million and love it. |
I'm a concealer junkie. The ones I like are:
Mac studio finish Nara radiant creamy concealer Bobbi brown (good but not great) This morning I just tried YSL Touche Éclat and I was pretty surprised at the coverage -- it was good! I'm Indian, btw, and have pretty dark circles. Good luck OP! |
Pixi, sold at Target. It's amazing! The color looks really, really light in the tiny jar, but when you put it on, your eyes look awake and pretty all of a sudden! And I have hereditary undereye circles that are bad, even though I'm only early 30s.

OP here. Thank you for all the suggestions!! Lots to try now. If all else fails, I'm even considering some Restylane under eye injections. I think my thin skin and hollow under eyes are a bad combo. |
