Thank you, I currently own the original Bye Bye Undereye but it cakes a little bit and does not cover enough. Trying to finish it and get rid of it. I did not know there was a more hydrating version. Will give it a try.
I'm 44 and the two Concealers I'm using are both from Catrice. The 1 Drop weightless coverage is a light thin consistency but full coverage and the instant awake concealer is a medium coverage but I don't have to set that one if I don't want to see. Definitely worth checking out!😃😘
Thank GOD I found a reviewer over 40!!! Your skin tone and issues are very similar to mine, and at 41 now, its HARD to find products that truly work! Love the videos and thanks again :)
I have tried almost every concealer and just found my perfect fit Cle de Peau. It took me awhile to justify the price at $73 but my 58 year old thin, lined under eyes look amazing. It's pricy at $73 but I just found it on Marshalls website for $38 so I bought a backup. We're similar shades, I'm shade Almond
May I offer my tips I am 51 yrs old and I discovered Becca undereye primer and it’s been a game changer in regards to preventing creasing .. I use one tiny drop of squalane serum under my eyes, allow it to penetrate then gently pat away any excess then apply a thin layer of the Becca undereye primer less is more with this product then apply corrector and/or concealer patting it on with a finger as the warmth melts the concealer into the skin.. Allow your concealer to set then take a damp beauty sponge and roll it onto your setting powder and gently apply with rolling motions under your eyes and WOW you get flawless, creaseless undereyes .. I use the Tarte shape tape concealer but only place like 4 tiny dots .. I hope you all try my technique and hope you get good results like I do 😊
my Walgreens now has testers for many, many products. They also have an excellent return policy and the women who work in the cosmetics area at my favorite store are very knowledgable. Plus they have a decent rewards program.
I struggle with the same issues as you with my 40+ under eyes and you’re right, it is a tall order to find something that works, let alone works well. Thank you for this video! While you are at it, perhaps you could update your under eye setting powder recommendations? Pretty please?
Gina Swartzendruber Have you tried Clarins smoothing concealer ? It’s incredibly flattering & a high quality formula with 15mls of product. A lot of bang for your buck & a fabulous finish !
Noir Alibi thank you so much for the tip! I always seem to forget about Clarins, which doesn’t make sense because everything I’ve tried has always been great. I’ll give it a whirl! Is it the Instant Concealer?
Gina Swartzendruber Yes , the instant concealer . They need more shades , yikes , but that’s another topic . I have emailed them about it , hopefully they extend the range because it’s so good ! Incidentally I just purchased a new one and I got the wrong shade by accident, I’m shade 01 and I got 02 and it’s too dark . Let me know your shade .
Gina Swartzendruber I would have happily sent you mine if you are shade 02 . I should have been clearer on that . I apologize. I missed the 30 day window to exchange it , sadly . I’m looking for a good product to lighten it ( like a white pigment product) without having to repurchase my shade . Any suggestions from you or anyone would be helpful . Let me know how you like yours .
The Jeffree Star concealer is my holy grail! The peach corrector from this line is also the only thing that’s ever covered my hereditary “did-you-get-punched-in-the-eye?!” dark circles.
The shape of the Elf Camo (Concealer) sponge ($4-$6) works perfectly for me for applying other concealers, better than the small Beauty Blenders designed specifically for under eyes. However the concealer itself caked a lot and I returned it. Bought a couple of these sponges and intend to buy more.
Never tried any of these and I’m so excited to give them a test run! I’ve been using the Tarte shape tape but it isn’t the best for dry under eyes. Great video, tysm!!
My love for Luke runs deep guys. 🥰🥰🥰 That said concealers are the bain of my existence (in the makeup world) I can’t get the moisture level, shade or consistency correct more than 5% of the time! 😩Thank you for all your hard work, clearly you know your stuff-I’m more confused than ever. I just want to add...This was not meant to sound negative. I am very thankful for all the wonderful information and tips. I just have aging eyes which seem to have changed rapidly and I’ve not yet figured out how to manage.
My absolute favorite concealer is First Aid Beauty avocado bendy something something (LOL). It's so good. I have the trifecta - wrinkles, puffiness and really dark circles. FAB looks the best under my eyes. It's probably medium coverage so it doesn't completely conceal the darkness under my eyes but full coverage concealers don't either. For reference I'm 52 and have normal skin and most concealers look like the Sahara Desert under my eyes.
@@Sashas-mom I have shade 1 which is the 2nd lightest shade. I actually should have a shade darker as I'm right inbetween a light and medium skintone. The 2 lightest shades are a bit yellow and the rest are a bit peachy. Since I have an olive complexion the yellow tone works really well on my under eyes.
I have SUPER dry under eyes and the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear is wonderful as well ( I have the Dior and LOVE it along with TF). The Tacha eye cream in the white pot has completely fixed my dry under eye problem . I tried every eye cream known, and this has been a game changer! Thanks for the great video!!
@@wendyraye Aloha Wendy! So I use the Becca color corrector/brightener in the pot, then I use a tiny flat brush to apply the product, and smooth out with a sponge and my finger. I literally have tried just about every concealer out there, drugstore and high end, and this has been my holy grail combo. I do think the Tatcha eye cream has a lot to do with helping the dryness. I would suggest getting a sample.
I was devastated when they discontinued the Maquicomplete, so I’ll give this a try thanks so much for the info I have crinkly under dry eyes too and finding a good concealer is hard
The CT corrector changed my life!! Nothing like a peach creamy corrector for my dry and dark under-eye area! Lancome concealer made me look dry. The best for me so far is NARS macadamia
Lancome concealers are my holy Grail...effecernes and maquicomplet! They crease the least out of any concealers I have ever tried and they have amazing coverage
Thank you for this video. I just received my order of the Dior and Giorgio Armani concealers and looking forward to trying them. My under eyes are my greatest frustration!
Wow out of all these, the only one I have is the Jeffree star. It’s one of my absolute favorites! My favorite corrector is the Becca under eye brightener. It’s so good!
You have to try the GA power fabric...I have tried all that she talked about !! I have tried pretty much 99% of the top shelf concealers besides La Mer, Chantecaile, and La Prarie !! After I tried the power fabric..I was finally at the end of my mission *) PERFECTION
I have a very difficult tie finding a concealer that didn’t crease or increase my fine lines. Some of these are here. Will continue my quest...thanks for this video
I'm taking notes now! Right now I've been rotating between my hourglass, Nars radiant creamy concealer, and tarte shape tape. I don't love the tarte but I don't hate it so I want to use it up. I think the dior, too faced, and Charlotte Tilbury magic away are next on my list!
My favorite is the Coloupop Hyluronic Concealer...I normally would never have even tried this brand but I saw a YT video, lol. And I use all the time! It's inexpensive and covers like shape tape without the dryness.
I’m 46 and just recently started having trouble with concealers under my eye. I’ve been on a quest. I have very dark circles, loss of volume, and fine lines. My favorite concealer is the Tart Creaseless concealer. It’s very moisturizing and has illuminating properties to bring my hallows forward. I just got a mini of the NARS creamy radiant concealer that is similar and am liking (it’s a little less emollient). I recently found that CT corrector recently and LOVE ❤️ it. I’ve tried some recent launches and do not like the new Hourglass- it’s got a powdery finish that accentuates fine lines- revealing vertical lines, in addition to horizontal ones, that I didn’t know I had. I tried the Dior one but it’s light to medium coverage and was just not special. I have a sample of the Lancôme waterproof one that I’m liking as well.
Tarte creaseless concealer. A little goes a long way. Moisturizing and long lasting. I use a minimal amount of powder under my eyes with this otherwise it will crease a bit. I am 63.
vero gutierrez everyone is so different. Plus what you use on your skin before putting the concealer on can make a difference in whether it will work for you. It is a quality product but may be too much for some. I found it difficult to find the correct amount to use and whether to use fingers vs sponge vs brush. Use too much and it looks too obvious and heavy. Its not real creamy. I describe it as sticky. I feel it needs to be warmed up before applying. This is not an easy concealer to work with. The up side is it does a good job of covering dark circles, keeping the area moist and it lasts for hours. This is not a concealer for the majority of people and requires a bit of trial and error.
I cut the sponge off my Charlotte Tillbary and it didn’t dry up. I love it that way. This is my second one I did it for also. I’m not sure what I did differently lol. Enjoyed the video. Your under eyes look great!
I love your “best” videos! I’m always on the hunt for a holy grail concealer for my crinkly under eyes. I recently bought the newest Benefit concealer thinking that Benefit was cruelty free - (think I was confusing it with Becca)and super sad because the Benefit is perfect but not cruelty free😔 I do really love the Cover FX but want to try the IT Bye Bye Undereye. I don’t have a big problem with dark circles. More puffiness on certain mornings and looking for smoothing and brightening. I totally hear you on the drugstore concealers - I feel I really need to be shade matched when it comes to a concealer. For me the corrector I will NEVER be without is the Becca under eye brightener - total GAME CHANGER under my 55yr old eyes. Some days I only use that and don’t need a concealer 😊👍 I’m very interested to try the Bare Minerals now:) Travelling in a week so maybe a good time to try it out. I love Too Faced Born This Way foundation and sounds like maybe I need to try the concealer......so many to try lol. I totally trust your recommendations:) Thank you Stephanie Have a beautiful week 💕 Tammy Roy🇨🇦
I thought I had watery eyes, but it was my chemical sunscreen! I now only use a mineral formula and that solves that problem. I wish I could solve the other issues as easily! Thanks for doing this video! This area is a problem for most of us over 40!
Thanks for the cruelty free suggestions. I have been wanting to try Colorescience for a while, but they don't ship to Canada. By the way, your hair looks so pretty!
I have given up on concealer. I have spent so much money and tried so many products. They all look fine at first, but by the end of the day look patchy and scaly and awful. Now I just use the Origins Ginzing eye cream with foundation in my under eye area (Stila hide & chic) and it looks decent and doesn’t get patchy
@@echase416 I bought that one in the hope that it was, but just for me, it didn't work. I found it thin without much coverage but I do have very dark circles, so it's possible it's good for those without too much to cover.
First Aid Beauty Flex Avocado Concealer and Onomie Concealer are my current favorites, I also like the Two Faced. I rotate all three depending on my skin and dark circles in the morning. Would love to try the Dior and Armani. Want to finish what I have first! Great video.
The CT concealer enhances every line under my eye..and is so very thick !! My absoulte favorite is the Georgio Armani power fabric !! The Dior forever skin correct concealer is amazing as well, but leans on the thick side for my prefrence *) I cant go without my GA concealer, my fav under eye skin cream is the Orgins gin zing to de puff and brighten *) That CT corrector is AMAZING !!
Thank you for this video. I use the Lancôme Maquicomplet in 310 Bisque (Camee). It is hydrating but not overly so. I don’t have dry under eyes, they are normal, but I have a distinctive wrinkle under both eyes. This looks great. I am 53 so wrinkles are something I am dealing with. Thinking of trying 1 or more of the ones you mention in this video. Going to try the CT corrector as well.
I’m guessing you’ve tried the Jouer. It’s one of my faves for my 51 year old dry under eyes that have lovely purple dark circles (thanks Dad 😏). I do religiously use the Colorscience, so it helps color correct a bit. So many people talk about the Born This Way and I can never get enough coverage. I’m still on the hunt for a concealer that covers as well as Shape Tape (Jouer is close but not quite there), but looks natural.
I recently purchased the Jeffree Star concealer and was really impressed! It definitely needs to be set, but it’s so long wearing and easy to use that I’ll be buying more shades!
The Pacifica, Colourpop Pretty Fresh, and Lancôme Maquicomplet concealers are all great medium coverage concealers that do not look dry and crepey under my eyes
Oh my goodness, I am right now on my search of the best under eye concealer since I noticed my old techniques aren't working anymore because of aging... I'm your age and I recently discovered your channel. Thanks for recommendations, I will give some of them a try, that's for sure. Hello from Southern California! 💖
Oh sweet Luke! Thanks for always providing such comprehensive info. Wish there were more affordable corrector options. Higher end is not an option for me at this point of (senior) life.
Am making notes. I’m 60. Super dry and dark circles. So far, best color corrector, hands down, Georgio Armani corrector. Comes in a tube and use just a touch. Bare Minerals Bareskin complete coverage serum concealer hasn’t been beat yet. Very lightweight....and my undereye isn’t dry... not as full coverage- but would rather have less dryness and lines than TOTALLY covered darkness. It’s bright enough.
I’ve not tried most of these because I’m on a budget😂, I do have and like the Tarte shape tape, Maybelline Age Rewind, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer and Jouer Essential High Coverage Concealer. They all are fine but sill looking for a one and done. Issues are dark circles, bumps and fine lines. I’m 60 so it’s a quest at this point. Right now Jouer is tops for me.
I absolutely love the Magic Away concealer, and I also rip the sponge out. I use a broken toothpick to plug the hole after I use it to keep it from drying out. I know it's a PITA, but the sponge wasted SO much product and I had it everywhere! I'm dying to try the Jeffree Star concealer, but I just don't need another concealer right now. :D
Loved this Stephanie! I so agree! The CT is so good at making darkness disappear! Love the Armani too! I love how you’re saying some of the ones that HA in them! Thank you doll! 🤗
I always enjoy your best concealer and foundation videos for the reason that I have got same issues except for the age. I am 35. Your information is always helpful. Thank you. You make my choices so much easier.
I had two Sephora samples of Dior Forever matte in 0 Neutral, always wanting to buy it but I had too much foundation to justify buying more. Now given the pandemic, with well over a year of my foundations having time to expire. I'm very happy to justify buying the Dior foundation and concealer. At least, I'll buy it when I start leaving the house again.
I tried the Lancome concealer and I liked it but it didnt overthrow the It cosmetics Bye Bye under eye (my previous favorite). Now I have them both in rotation. Like them both. Im glad to have a new concealer that works!
I just found you recently and really enjoy your channel. I buy products from Walgreen's because they let you return cosmetics you purchased, used and did not like. Keep the packaging and receipt with the product. This is a huge perk for Walgreen's customers. :-)
The Armani is my favorite concealer, it's going to take something extra-special to dethrone it. The first time I tried a sample I started giggling because it reminded me of how easy it used to be to apply concealer back when I was in my teens. And this broad just turned (gulp) 49. I'm intrigued by the CT color corrector though, I'm using the Tatcha pearl right now but wondering how it compares. I've had my pearl for over a year now and I still enjoy it, I probably have enough for the rest of this year, it's definitely given me my money's worth. I just wish it had spf.
The Georgio Armani power fabric is absoutly amazing...Nothing has compared so far...I pretty much have tried EVERY concealer at Ulta, and Sephora for real though being serious...I struggle with fine lines, texture, caving, pitting, and bad darkness *( The tatcha pearl isnt an actual color corrector so I cant compare it to the CT color corrector ( I have both ) The tatcha pearl is more to brighten and hydrate, when the CT color corrector has an actual coverage to it...Peach, Orange, and Red to actual color correct only...not to brighten and hydrate !! I love the CT color corrector, and the Georgio Armani power fabric duo..I either use the Tatcha pearl, or the Orgins gin zing as the first step prior to the CT color corrector and the concealer....It only takes a little of both when combined *) GL
My current favorite is the Charlotte Tilbury concealer. I’m on my second one! Great product, it’s not too thick just wish it had a different applicator.
My top favorites probobly Nars radiant, Elf hydrating camoflage (it really does last all day and doesnt budge even with out setting), Born this way, and MAC 24h one
I used to use a lighter shade concealer under my eyes, on my lids, under my brow ECT.. but I started seeing other women- how much it brought the wrinkles out and regardless what kind it is, or what type of skin it is for, it all sits in wrinkles & brings them out more.. so I no longer wear it under my eyes I use a foundation that is very very close and matches my skin well, and skip my eye area w foundation or concealer it really helps so early fine lines don't show. :)
Thank you for turning me on to an instant favorite. You definitely did not steer me wrong with Too Faced concealer. Absolutely LOVE this product. Thanks for the research and effort you put into the video. I’m subscribed now and look forward to watching more of your videos and finding more great products.
I’ve been really liking the No7 serum concealer. I’m 41 and have some darkness. I also like the Nars radiant creamy concealer, but I think I prefer the No7. I bought the CT concealer and returned it. Was not impressed for the price!
Perfect video, you are always so helpful!! I have fine lines under my eyes and I double moisturize . Another perfect concealer is the one of chanel and of course lancome anti effacerness
I have 2 of your top 3 (Dior & Too Faced) and have to agree that they are great. Would love to try the CT corrector; I'm using the Lancome, but it's like the IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye in that it's an extremely thick consistency and you have to be careful to use just a pinpoint amount.
I also love the Too Faced concealer. If you haven't tried the Catrice Camouflage concealer, then you need to! It's so good!! Very hydrating! It's my favorite drug store concealer! Loved this video!
I love my Lancôme waterproof concealer. I put it on with a flat synthetic brush and it stays all day, you don't even need to set it with powder! I also love my Tarte Shapetape but I use the smallest amount and spread it into position using a fluffy concealer brush such as the Zoeva Concealer Brush. I don't have a lot of darkness under my eyes and I find the Becca Brightening Corrector is enough for me...I apply it prior to applying my concealer. I'm going to try the Bare Minerals stick concealer mentioned here, it would be so handy for travelling. XXX
I have really horrible under eyes and I love the bare minerals serum concealer for light make up days and the Laura mercies flawless fusion concealer when I need a bit more coverage x
Any concealer that I don’t have to set is perfect for me so I don’t accentuate any wrinkles. Also want something that is long wearing. So what has worked for me is the cle de peu stick concealer. I also love the YSL all hour’s concealer since it is so long wearing. For drugstore I love the maybelline age rewind. The IT full coverage is very thick and I have to set it and it doesn’t last all during my work day.
I just started watching your video and I like that you do not use so much on your face, I am 47 and feel that I have underline dark spot and feel that I look old. I am going to start trying your tips, do you have any advice for a 47 first timer makeup user that ant to use light makeup and see a difference?
Always enjoy your videos! I am enjoying BareMineral serum undereye concealer because of its creamy consistency. It doesn’t dry down on my eyes and I set it very very lightly to take down the moisturizing sheen. I appreciate that it feels like a moisturizer but acts like a concealer.
You are my skin twin (type AND shades), which is why I watch so many of your videos. BTW, I ordered the Missha BB cream earlier today because I saw they have a warm shade between 23 and 27. I think it may be nice for this time of year, but I doubt that I can wear it after April because I live in Austin and it warms up so quickly here in TX. I will let you know if it leans too gray or yellow.
TY for this video!! I have a few questions though; 1. If you use a corrector, do you also use a concealer? 2. What’s you fave way to apply concealer, ie sponge, finger, etc or does it depend on the concealer?
Extreme dark circles on medium light (40s) skin, super dry with fine texture and fine lines: tried most of the concealers you mention, either bought or tried with a Sephora artist, and none of them works . At Nordstrom I tried two of the Charlotte Tillbury as applied by one of their associates and both caked. Then the Armani and a newer Laura Mercier over their color corrector.Total fails. (Older Laura Mercier much better.) Then the La Mere, another fail although their foundation was excellent and I bought it and love it. Recycled the $70+ Cle De Peau. The YSL High Coverage Concealer caked the least and I bought it and am using it with extensive hydration prior and only applied with a moist sponge. Recently I purchased online the YSL Touche Eclat with a hint of color and it helps quite a bit if carefully applied with a moist sponge on top of the concealer after it dries. Still on the hunt for a good concealer and the Dior you mention and a couple of other s are new to me so I will give them a try. I hope this helps someone.
Thanks for your recommendations! I love the new Kosas revealer concealer , wow , skincare & radiant , smoothing effect & Clarins instant concealer is an accidental find which I was recommended for a wedding & it blew me away . Hidden treasure! Also contains 15 mls ! So flattering on more mature skin . I like Charlotte Tilbury , but like you said it changed its composition over a 3/4 month period & for the price & little amount of product ( 3mls) , I can’t justify repurchasing . Oh , and the new Becca concealer I pop over their colour corrector and it’s stunning , if you like a beautiful , natural radiance under the eyes or highlight effect on the high points of the face . It’s a sheer formula, so not for everyone but I love it over corrector . Very flattering & unique!
Love the video!! What about a video on "your makeup is done to perfection and half way through the day you notice your under eye concealing has failed you and it looks dry and wrinkley." What to do? :)
I heard somewhere on RUclips (sorry, don't remember who) that the teensiest bit of an oil (any oil) pressed between the fingers and then pressed under the eyes will revive dry concealer.
Great picks. I know many people don’t like the brand. But, I have been loving KKW Beauty’s concealer for the past few years. I’m over 50. A little goes a long way. It’s light and brightens and it is buildable. Another tried and true for me is the Maybelline Age Instant rewind concealer. It is also light and buildable. I really want to try both the Dior and Armani next. They look great. I love the Armani master corrector. So, I’m hopeful for that concealer. 👍🏼
I love the Dior concealer. I purchased a warm tone, and it’s brightening, not yellow (which I like). I’m dying to try the Jeffree Star concealer; however, I wish I could see it in person. I’ve watched so many RUclips videos, & they seem to run light.
Id like to see closeups of smiling to see if any creasing from any of the concealers.
My latest fav (as a 47 year old) is the Bye Bye undereye dewy version. I love it. I use a pin size amount and it looks great and natural. 😍
Thank you, I currently own the original Bye Bye Undereye but it cakes a little bit and does not cover enough. Trying to finish it and get rid of it. I did not know there was a more hydrating version. Will give it a try.

Milani Conceal + Perfect is my favorite for my 51 yr old undereyes.
Is it full coverage?
@vera gutierrez... I think it is and the description says it is. If you try it, I hope you like it too!
That really dried out and emphasized my crepey wrinkles under my eyes. It seems to work for everyone but me lol
The Jeffree Star concealer is my holy grail! The peach corrector from this line is also the only thing that’s ever covered my hereditary “did-you-get-punched-in-the-eye?!” dark circles.
Good to know. NOTHING knocks mine out all the way 😢
I absolutely agree...the JS corrector is amazing...covers my dark circles and puffiness perfectly HIGHLY recommend and its only $22
And give me makeup that looks like a princess toy and I’m in! There. I said it. (Maybe because makeup can be like my toys and playtime? ;)
JuliePageMorgan Can you provide the color number for the peach shade? Thanks

I have extreme dryness under my eyes and love videos like these, thank you.
I have been using Colorscience for a couple years and enjoy using it. I am so glad they have more shades available.
Lisa Gomez I love 💕 3 in 1 from Colorescience! I have been using it over 2 years!
Lancome concealers are my holy Grail...effecernes and maquicomplet! They crease the least out of any concealers I have ever tried and they have amazing coverage
Thank you for this video. I just received my order of the Dior and Giorgio Armani concealers and looking forward to trying them. My under eyes are my greatest frustration!
Wow out of all these, the only one I have is the Jeffree star. It’s one of my absolute favorites! My favorite corrector is the Becca under eye brightener. It’s so good!
You have to try the GA power fabric...I have tried all that she talked about !! I have tried pretty much 99% of the top shelf concealers besides La Mer, Chantecaile, and La Prarie !! After I tried the power fabric..I was finally at the end of my mission *) PERFECTION
I have a very difficult tie finding a concealer that didn’t crease or increase my fine lines. Some of these are here. Will continue my quest...thanks for this video
Same here! if you do find something, please let us know.....
I love the Too Faced concealer. It's so hydrating and long lasting!
Thank you for this video. Now, I have more options.
I'm taking notes now! Right now I've been rotating between my hourglass, Nars radiant creamy concealer, and tarte shape tape. I don't love the tarte but I don't hate it so I want to use it up. I think the dior, too faced, and Charlotte Tilbury magic away are next on my list!
My favorite is the Coloupop Hyluronic Concealer...I normally would never have even tried this brand but I saw a YT video, lol. And I use all the time! It's inexpensive and covers like shape tape without the dryness.
I’m 46 and just recently started having trouble with concealers under my eye. I’ve been on a quest. I have very dark circles, loss of volume, and fine lines. My favorite concealer is the Tart Creaseless concealer. It’s very moisturizing and has illuminating properties to bring my hallows forward. I just got a mini of the NARS creamy radiant concealer that is similar and am liking (it’s a little less emollient). I recently found that CT corrector recently and LOVE ❤️ it. I’ve tried some recent launches and do not like the new Hourglass- it’s got a powdery finish that accentuates fine lines- revealing vertical lines, in addition to horizontal ones, that I didn’t know I had. I tried the Dior one but it’s light to medium coverage and was just not special. I have a sample of the Lancôme waterproof one that I’m liking as well.
Love too faced to cover redness from rosacea on my cheeks. I wear golden beige, since I have yellow under tones...it's perfect🥰🥰
Tarte creaseless concealer. A little goes a long way. Moisturizing and long lasting. I use a minimal amount of powder under my eyes with this otherwise it will crease a bit. I am 63.
Ohhh!!! I Thought it was really "creaseles", thanks for your feedback
vero gutierrez everyone is so different. Plus what you use on your skin before putting the concealer on can make a difference in whether it will work for you. It is a quality product but may be too much for some. I found it difficult to find the correct amount to use and whether to use fingers vs sponge vs brush. Use too much and it looks too obvious and heavy. Its not real creamy. I describe it as sticky. I feel it needs to be warmed up before applying. This is not an easy concealer to work with. The up side is it does a good job of covering dark circles, keeping the area moist and it lasts for hours. This is not a concealer for the majority of people and requires a bit of trial and error.
@@stargazerbarb1574 thank a lot for all the details given. Best wishes✨✨✨
I cut the sponge off my Charlotte Tillbary and it didn’t dry up. I love it that way. This is my second one I did it for also. I’m not sure what I did differently lol. Enjoyed the video. Your under eyes look great!
I love your “best” videos! I’m always on the hunt for a holy grail concealer for my crinkly under eyes. I recently bought the newest Benefit concealer thinking that Benefit was cruelty free - (think I was confusing it with Becca)and super sad because the Benefit is perfect but not cruelty free😔
I do really love the Cover FX but want to try the IT Bye Bye Undereye. I don’t have a big problem with dark circles. More puffiness on certain mornings and looking for smoothing and brightening.
I totally hear you on the drugstore concealers - I feel I really need to be shade matched when it comes to a concealer.
For me the corrector I will NEVER be without is the Becca under eye brightener - total GAME CHANGER under my 55yr old eyes. Some days I only use that and don’t need a concealer 😊👍
I’m very interested to try the Bare Minerals now:) Travelling in a week so maybe a good time to try it out.
I love Too Faced Born This Way foundation and sounds like maybe I need to try the concealer......so many to try lol. I totally trust your recommendations:) Thank you Stephanie
Have a beautiful week 💕

I thought I had watery eyes, but it was my chemical sunscreen! I now only use a mineral formula and that solves that problem. I wish I could solve the other issues as easily!
Thanks for doing this video! This area is a problem for most of us over 40!
Thanks for the cruelty free suggestions. I have been wanting to try Colorescience for a while, but they don't ship to Canada. By the way, your hair looks so pretty!
Try beautysense.ca - they don't carry the whole line, but they do carry some of their products, and they add more options once in a while!
The Revlon Photo ready also works well under powder foundation. I use it almost every day under Sephora powder foundation.
I have given up on concealer. I have spent so much money and tried so many products. They all look fine at first, but by the end of the day look patchy and scaly and awful. Now I just use the Origins Ginzing eye cream with foundation in my under eye area (Stila hide & chic) and it looks decent and doesn’t get patchy
My favorite corrector is by Bobbi Brown. I'm medium skin (NC30. ELDW Rattan) and I use the color Bisque.
I love Nars Radiant Creamy concealer! Blends well, smoothing. Ive tried many and this one is great
Ann Tomao Maybelline Fit Me concealer is a dupe for that. Even the tube looks the same. 😮
@@echase416 I bought that one in the hope that it was, but just for me, it didn't work. I found it thin without much coverage but I do have very dark circles, so it's possible it's good for those without too much to cover.
First Aid Beauty Flex
Avocado Concealer and Onomie Concealer are my current favorites, I also like the Two Faced. I rotate all three depending on my skin and dark circles in the morning. Would love to try the Dior and Armani. Want to finish what I have first! Great video.
The CT concealer enhances every line under my eye..and is so very thick !! My absoulte favorite is the Georgio Armani power fabric !! The Dior forever skin correct concealer is amazing as well, but leans on the thick side for my prefrence *) I cant go without my GA concealer, my fav under eye skin cream is the Orgins gin zing to de puff and brighten *) That CT corrector is AMAZING !!
On your A game today...LOVE the hair, makeup, and jewelry! Beautiful!
Thank you! 💖
Thank you for this video. I use the Lancôme Maquicomplet in 310 Bisque (Camee). It is hydrating but not overly so. I don’t have dry under eyes, they are normal, but I have a distinctive wrinkle under both eyes. This looks great. I am 53 so wrinkles are something I am dealing with. Thinking of trying 1 or more of the ones you mention in this video. Going to try the CT corrector as well.
I’m guessing you’ve tried the Jouer. It’s one of my faves for my 51 year old dry under eyes that have lovely purple dark circles (thanks Dad 😏). I do religiously use the Colorscience, so it helps color correct a bit. So many people talk about the Born This Way and I can never get enough coverage. I’m still on the hunt for a concealer that covers as well as Shape Tape (Jouer is close but not quite there), but looks natural.
The original BTW didn’t cover as well as the BTW Sculpting. 😘
What color correct in color science for blue purple?
I recently purchased the Jeffree Star concealer and was really impressed! It definitely needs to be set, but it’s so long wearing and easy to use that I’ll be buying more shades!
msknottyknits I love the JS concealer. I have stopped looking since using it.
The Pacifica, Colourpop Pretty Fresh, and Lancôme Maquicomplet concealers are all great medium coverage concealers that do not look dry and crepey under my eyes
Oh my goodness, I am right now on my search of the best under eye concealer since I noticed my old techniques aren't working anymore because of aging... I'm your age and I recently discovered your channel. Thanks for recommendations, I will give some of them a try, that's for sure. Hello from Southern California! 💖
Stephanie I love your videos! You need a zillion more subscribers. You do such a thorough, honest and entertaining job!
Wow, thank you! 💓
I recently got the No.7 Lift & Luminate Serum Concealer and it is amazing! Definitely worth trying.
Oh sweet Luke! Thanks for always providing such comprehensive info. Wish there were more affordable corrector options. Higher end is not an option for me at this point of (senior) life.
I love Double Wear Instant Fix concealer by Estee Lauder. Very light for everyday use, hydrating and natural looking.
Am making notes. I’m 60. Super dry and dark circles. So far, best color corrector, hands down, Georgio Armani corrector. Comes in a tube and use just a touch. Bare Minerals Bareskin complete coverage serum concealer hasn’t been beat yet. Very lightweight....and my undereye isn’t dry... not as full coverage- but would rather have less dryness and lines than TOTALLY covered darkness. It’s bright enough.
I really enjoy the JStar. And the too faced. I’m at that age too, 40 this year. Fine lines, dry dry skin. Great information!
Thank you so much for the concealer tips I’m going to try the Charlotte tilbury.What a cute doggie in the back🙂❤️
I’ve not tried most of these because I’m on a budget😂, I do have and like the Tarte shape tape, Maybelline Age Rewind, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer and Jouer Essential High Coverage Concealer. They all are fine but sill looking for a one and done. Issues are dark circles, bumps and fine lines. I’m 60 so it’s a quest at this point. Right now Jouer is tops for me.
The Armani is in my opinion a great value, you use so little and it's so easy to apply. See if you can get a sample from Sephora.
Rye Toast thank you! I will ask next time I’m there.❤️
I absolutely love the Magic Away concealer, and I also rip the sponge out. I use a broken toothpick to plug the hole after I use it to keep it from drying out. I know it's a PITA, but the sponge wasted SO much product and I had it everywhere! I'm dying to try the Jeffree Star concealer, but I just don't need another concealer right now. :D
Loved this Stephanie! I so agree! The CT is so good at making darkness disappear! Love the Armani too! I love how you’re saying some of the ones that HA in them! Thank you doll! 🤗
I always enjoy your best concealer and foundation videos for the reason that I have got same issues except for the age. I am 35. Your information is always helpful. Thank you. You make my choices so much easier.
Thank you! I'm glad they're helpful for you!
I had two Sephora samples of Dior Forever matte in 0 Neutral, always wanting to buy it but I had too much foundation to justify buying more. Now given the pandemic, with well over a year of my foundations having time to expire. I'm very happy to justify buying the Dior foundation and concealer. At least, I'll buy it when I start leaving the house again.
I tried the Lancome concealer and I liked it but it didnt overthrow the It cosmetics Bye Bye under eye (my previous favorite). Now I have them both in rotation. Like them both. Im glad to have a new concealer that works!
I just found you recently and really enjoy your channel. I buy products from Walgreen's because they let you return cosmetics you purchased, used and did not like. Keep the packaging and receipt with the product. This is a huge perk for Walgreen's customers. :-)
The Armani is my favorite concealer, it's going to take something extra-special to dethrone it. The first time I tried a sample I started giggling because it reminded me of how easy it used to be to apply concealer back when I was in my teens. And this broad just turned (gulp) 49. I'm intrigued by the CT color corrector though, I'm using the Tatcha pearl right now but wondering how it compares. I've had my pearl for over a year now and I still enjoy it, I probably have enough for the rest of this year, it's definitely given me my money's worth. I just wish it had spf.
The Georgio Armani power fabric is absoutly amazing...Nothing has compared so far...I pretty much have tried EVERY concealer at Ulta, and Sephora for real though being serious...I struggle with fine lines, texture, caving, pitting, and bad darkness *( The tatcha pearl isnt an actual color corrector so I cant compare it to the CT color corrector ( I have both ) The tatcha pearl is more to brighten and hydrate, when the CT color corrector has an actual coverage to it...Peach, Orange, and Red to actual color correct only...not to brighten and hydrate !! I love the CT color corrector, and the Georgio Armani power fabric duo..I either use the Tatcha pearl, or the Orgins gin zing as the first step prior to the CT color corrector and the concealer....It only takes a little of both when combined *) GL
My current favorite is the Charlotte Tilbury concealer. I’m on my second one! Great product, it’s not too thick just wish it had a different applicator.
My top favorites probobly Nars radiant, Elf hydrating camoflage (it really does last all day and doesnt budge even with out setting), Born this way, and MAC 24h one
Oh hi, gf :)))
I used to use a lighter shade concealer under my eyes, on my lids, under my brow ECT.. but I started seeing other women- how much it brought the wrinkles out and regardless what kind it is, or what type of skin it is for, it all sits in wrinkles & brings them out more.. so I no longer wear it under my eyes I use a foundation that is very very close and matches my skin well, and skip my eye area w foundation or concealer it really helps so early fine lines don't show. :)
Thank you for turning me on to an instant favorite. You definitely did not steer me wrong with Too Faced concealer. Absolutely LOVE this product. Thanks for the research and effort you put into the video. I’m subscribed now and look forward to watching more of your videos and finding more great products.
Ahh! Look at Luke sleeping with his toy. Just when you think this dog can’t get any cuter! I noticed!
My favorite used to be Tarte Creaseless, but was recently replaced with Boing Cakeless - love it!
I’ve been really liking the No7 serum concealer. I’m 41 and have some darkness. I also like the Nars radiant creamy concealer, but I think I prefer the No7. I bought the CT concealer and returned it. Was not impressed for the price!
Perfect video, you are always so helpful!! I have fine lines under my eyes and I double moisturize . Another perfect concealer is the one of chanel and of course lancome anti effacerness
I have 2 of your top 3 (Dior & Too Faced) and have to agree that they are great. Would love to try the CT corrector; I'm using the Lancome, but it's like the IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye in that it's an extremely thick consistency and you have to be careful to use just a pinpoint amount.
I also love the Too Faced concealer. If you haven't tried the Catrice Camouflage concealer, then you need to! It's so good!! Very hydrating! It's my favorite drug store concealer! Loved this video!
You are gorgeous, talented! I just subscribed to your Channel. I have very dry Dark circles! Thanks a lot! 💕
I am 42 with dark circles and jeffrree star concealer is creamy and wonderful
I love the new Charlotte Tilbury color concealer. It goes on like no other I have used. It blends in like a dream.Amazing product!❤️
I always visit Ulta to test colors and textures of drugstore products before purchasing. It’s very rare that there isn’t a sample out
I love Wander Dualist Concealer...I have very dry under eyes (almost 60) and I find this smoothing and does not crease 💛
I love my Lancôme waterproof concealer. I put it on with a flat synthetic brush and it stays all day, you don't even need to set it with powder!
I also love my Tarte Shapetape but I use the smallest amount and spread it into position using a fluffy concealer brush such as the Zoeva Concealer Brush.
I don't have a lot of darkness under my eyes and I find the Becca Brightening Corrector is enough for me...I apply it prior to applying my concealer.
I'm going to try the Bare Minerals stick concealer mentioned here, it would be so handy for travelling. XXX
I have really horrible under eyes and I love the bare minerals serum concealer for light make up days and the Laura mercies flawless fusion concealer when I need a bit more coverage x
The Colorescience corrector is amazing! I just finished my second tube and am ordering another!
GORGEOUS!!! and that necklace is a MUST HAVE. I this necklace on my "Hubby Buy Me This Stuff" list!
Do you have recs for drugstore/affordable hydrating under eye primers as well as recs for under eye bags? Thanks!
Any concealer that I don’t have to set is perfect for me so I don’t accentuate any wrinkles. Also want something that is long wearing. So what has worked for me is the cle de peu stick concealer. I also love the YSL all hour’s concealer since it is so long wearing. For drugstore I love the maybelline age rewind. The IT full coverage is very thick and I have to set it and it doesn’t last all during my work day.
Good for you! I had to recycle my Cle De Peau because I did not get to go to Saks' early enough to return it.
Great video! I love concealer and foundation- I’ve realized these are the two products I’m always looking for more of 😝
Just found your video as I am looking to switch up my Nars concealer! Lots of valuable information ... thank you!
Thank you Leslie! 😘
I just started watching your video and I like that you do not use so much on your face, I am 47 and feel that I have underline dark spot and feel that I look old. I am going to start trying your tips, do you have any advice for a 47 first timer makeup user that ant to use light makeup and see a difference?
Jeffree star concealer it’s my favourite! I’m gonna try the Dior you were talking! Thank you for this video 😊
Always enjoy your videos! I am enjoying BareMineral serum undereye concealer because of its creamy consistency. It doesn’t dry down on my eyes and I set it very very lightly to take down the moisturizing sheen. I appreciate that it feels like a moisturizer but acts like a concealer.
Stephanie what under eye cream do you use? My under eye area is dry with fine lines. I have been looking for something that works!
44 years old and looking not a day over 35😍
Thanks for all your videos. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you! 💗
You are my skin twin (type AND shades), which is why I watch so many of your videos. BTW, I ordered the Missha BB cream earlier today because I saw they have a warm shade between 23 and 27. I think it may be nice for this time of year, but I doubt that I can wear it after April because I live in Austin and it warms up so quickly here in TX. I will let you know if it leans too gray or yellow.
I love the New ELF hydrating camo concealer. I have also stopped setting my under 51 yo under eyes and it has made a big difference.
Does this last and stay in place all day without setting the product with powder? I'm desperate to find something that will work for me.
Omg, this is exactly what I needed! We have the same skin issues, eyes & face
Great info. Love your detailed descriptions and opinions ! Big fan
TY for this video!! I have a few questions though; 1. If you use a corrector, do you also use a concealer? 2. What’s you fave way to apply concealer, ie sponge, finger, etc or does it depend on the concealer?
Yes. Corrector goes before concealers. It depends on the concealer for the application method. :)
Extreme dark circles on medium light (40s) skin, super dry with fine texture and fine lines: tried most of the concealers you mention, either bought or tried with a Sephora artist, and none of them works . At Nordstrom I tried two of the Charlotte Tillbury as applied by one of their associates and both caked. Then the Armani and a newer Laura Mercier over their color corrector.Total fails. (Older Laura Mercier much better.) Then the La Mere, another fail although their foundation was excellent and I bought it and love it. Recycled the $70+ Cle De Peau. The YSL High Coverage Concealer caked the least and I bought it and am using it with extensive hydration prior and only applied with a moist sponge. Recently I purchased online the YSL Touche Eclat with a hint of color and it helps quite a bit if carefully applied with a moist sponge on top of the concealer after it dries. Still on the hunt for a good concealer and the Dior you mention and a couple of other s are new to me so I will give them a try. I hope this helps someone.
Thank you. I feel hopeless
@@KL-Lady Here's for much better things for you. I am sure that you will find something that works great. Happy Easter!
@@strll3048 ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for your recommendations! I love the new Kosas revealer concealer , wow , skincare & radiant , smoothing effect & Clarins instant concealer is an accidental find which I was recommended for a wedding & it blew me away . Hidden treasure! Also contains 15 mls ! So flattering on more mature skin . I like Charlotte Tilbury , but like you said it changed its composition over a 3/4 month period & for the price & little amount of product ( 3mls) , I can’t justify repurchasing . Oh , and the new Becca concealer I pop over their colour corrector and it’s stunning , if you like a beautiful , natural radiance under the eyes or highlight effect on the high points of the face . It’s a sheer formula, so not for everyone but I love it over corrector . Very flattering & unique!
You have to try the Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion Concealer. Its got a very thin and hydrating texture but covers really well and looks natural!
Love the video!! What about a video on "your makeup is done to perfection and half way through the day you notice your under eye concealing has failed you and it looks dry and wrinkley." What to do? :)
I heard somewhere on RUclips (sorry, don't remember who) that the teensiest bit of an oil (any oil) pressed between the fingers and then pressed under the eyes will revive dry concealer.
Great picks. I know many people don’t like the brand. But, I have been loving KKW Beauty’s concealer for the past few years. I’m over 50. A little goes a long way. It’s light and brightens and it is buildable. Another tried and true for me is the Maybelline Age Instant rewind concealer. It is also light and buildable. I really want to try both the Dior and Armani next. They look great. I love the Armani master corrector. So, I’m hopeful for that concealer. 👍🏼
KKW was in my last video! Very good!
Stephanie Marie I will go check that video out. 🤗👍🏼
I really find it a huge challenge to pick the right shade. Thank you for the video.
I love the Dior concealer. I purchased a warm tone, and it’s brightening, not yellow (which I like). I’m dying to try the Jeffree Star concealer; however, I wish I could see it in person. I’ve watched so many RUclips videos, & they seem to run light.
