Rimmel London Wake Me Up Anti-Fatigue Concealer

Bobbi Brown Instant Full Cover Concealer
We say: This full coverage concealer completely covers and brightens dark circles and softens hollows and tired lines. It’s fantastic for any age group and won’t budge or crease once it’s applied. It doesn’t feel heavy and it still looks like real skin.
Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Eye Eraser Concealer
You say: “This is the BEST concealer!!!! This is the only concealer I have ever tried (I’ve tried a lot) that doesn’t crease under my eyes. I find this product very easy to apply. The concealer has a twist to release product feature when the cap is taken off, and a little sponge applicator. I use the lightest shade under my eyes and it is quite brightening.” – GeorgiaDuncan
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
We say: “A favourite of makeup artists for good reason. This concealer gives great coverage, it’s super creamy and it leaves the most beautiful, luminous finish. It banishes all signs of fatigue and dark circles and is completely crease-proof. If you don’t feel like shopping around, you really can’t go wrong with this one.

L’Oréal Paris Lumi Magique Concealer
You say: “Lumi Magique Concealer is the BEST dark circle concealer EVER!! And I’ve tried a few, but the power of the light reflecting properties in the Lumi Magique concealer, it really is a touch of highlight and illumination to the complexion:) It really makes your face radiate a glow that is so pretty. When I wear this concealer, I feel comfortable and confident that my under eye is illuminated, to the point that my dark circles aren’t noticeable!” – Possumpie72
Nutrimetics nc Liquid Cover Smoothing Concealer
You say: “I’ve been using this product for a couple years now and I’ve never strayed from it. I love that it never dries out or changes colour as the day goes on. The fact that it’s got Vitamin E & C as well as glycerin is a nice added bonus as I mainly use on the eyes and any red areas of skin I have – so it’s good to be able to cover up but still give a little TLC at the same time.” – sunjeanie

We say: No matter how bad your dark circles are, this concealer has you covered! The highly concentrated formula effectively covers dark circles, moles, tattoos and even birthmarks. The creamy formula is enriched with vitamins A and E to help nourish the skin while you’re wearing it.
Benefit Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer
You say: “I have started noticing that as i get older i needed something that could cancel out the dark undereye area and a few broken capillaries on my cheeks. I was a little hesitant to buy this product only due to the cost but i thought id give it a go. I am sòoooooo glad i did! The creamy formula glides on easily with a consistently that was creamy and moist yet packed a punch against my dark circles and eliminated my broken veins.” – Jojo82

the maybelline age rewind concelear is absolutely worth the hype, it is extremely affordable and my go to concelear!
The ones I got are two-sided. One has a darker shade than the other. It is cheaper than most of its counterparts. It's below $15, and I can have the best of both worlds. I got it from luxondemand.com. Weird how the website is not tied to LUX. It is a whole other brand. Who knew?
age rewind has always been a fave of mine!
