    Is there any under eye concealer to help erase circles under eyes.. Iv tried Clairns, MAC, maybelline, Laura mercier , urban decay And none have wowed me. The catrice one is very good but not very long lasting I find. Any recommendations:)

    Catrice and Nars creamy concealer are about as good as you get, how are you setting your concealer? That will affect its staying power.

    I'd recommend KVD lock it loose powder and the RCMA powder, they're both ultra fine.

    I love the Nars Creamy Concealer, think it's worth the price.

    Benefit, Bo-ing brightening concealer it used to be called erase paste. It's my fave!

    I've tried so many concealers!! None of them I've found have completely hidden my dark circles but many do minimise them. I use two concealers. I use the NYX yellow tone concealer, apply it to my dark circles after foundation, let it set for a minute and then bend. I then apply my eye make up and after that I use another concealer, the Catrice one is my holy grail but NYX is also good. I apply a good layer of the concealer under my eyes, again let it set for a minute then blend in and set with a translucent powder. My routine doesn't preform miracles for me unfortunately but does a good job of minimising them.

    Catrice is really good & so cheap. Even available in Penney’s!

    I think setting the concealer is important, as others have mentioned. Also, have you considered using an under eye primer? Smashbox has one that's worked well for me.

    I like the collection lasting perfection liquid one. Used to use boi-ing but found it settled into the lines around my eyes too much. It did cover the dark circles though!

    No, the liquid camouflage one. The same as the one in the link above.

    If the issue is dark circles rather than bags, a colour correcter under a concealer works best.

    If you've got typical Irish pale skin then you need a peach sort of colour. I'm using one from pixi but loads of brands have them.

    The concealer in your own skin tone can go on top.

    It's the only thing that's worked for me apart from putting on thick layers that just ends up creasing.

    A concealer isn’t going to work on its own if you aren’t doing a colour correction first. MAC have great liquid colour correctors which will negate the dark circles and you can then conceal on top of that.
