Though it's in stick form, I apply it with a good concealer brush and set with translucent powder.<br /> Good luck - you'll find one that works for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-287072 Thu, 27 Jan 2011 05:12:11 +0000 elpgal 287072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Auburn, Oops, I didn't read your reply fully. Figured out what powder you are talking about! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-287069 Thu, 27 Jan 2011 05:09:10 +0000 elpgal 287069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Scarlet! I tried a bunch of creams a couple of years ago, mostly from the drugstore. I don't remember which ones though and I never stuck with them so I am not surprised that I did not find them effective. Is there one you like? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286695 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 22:23:32 +0000 Scarlet 286695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elpgal, it's definitely available here<br /> <a href="http://www.bluemercury.com/Concealer1/T-LeClerc-Corrector-Fluid.asp" rel="nofollow">http://www.bluemercury.com/Con.....-Fluid.asp</a><br /> But I don't know about the colors because my skin is very fair. I think Laura Mercier is a good product but it is much heavier, so it depends what you want.  I did not have good luck with Touché Éclat, but I guess most people do. It makes my skin dry out or something and look crinkly. I noticed that some eye creams do seem to reduce undereye puffiness or circles. I don't know if you have tried something like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286435 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 15:57:04 +0000 lynne 286435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm another who has tried many many under eye concealors (you name it, I've tried it) and my favorite is from MAC. I forget the name, but its their newest one and comes in a little pump bottle. It doesn't settle into creases, covers well and lasts all day. If you go to a MAC counter they can match your shade. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286122 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 01:33:28 +0000 Marley 286122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Auburn's suggestion - Laura Mercier! (at Sephora.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286096 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 00:20:16 +0000 KristineK 286096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stila's Perfecting Concealer has always worked really well for me... and if I remember correctly, it comes in a pretty good range of shades. Also, I agree about using a brush when applying... it makes a huge difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286069 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 23:37:10 +0000 Megan 286069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loreal does a version of the Touche Eclat- it's called Touche Magique. Cheaper and does as good (if not better) a job. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286061 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 23:27:55 +0000 Steph 286061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also have very dark circles under my eyes, and have my whole life. Additionally, the skin under my eyes is very dry, so it has a wrinkled look, although there aren't actually wrinkles there. This means I have major issues with caking. </p> <p>I have tried dozens of concealers, and the only one that I like is Smashbox High Definition Concealer. You can get it at Sephora. </p> <p>I think I might have to try the YSL concealer after seeing all of these recommendations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286016 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 22:19:36 +0000 elpgal 286016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you to all those who replied. I'll give these brands a try and report back.</p> <p>Scarlet, Do you know if this brand is available in the US?</p> <p>Auburn, What sort of powder should I look for? Will mineral foundation suffice?</p> <p>AJ, I never used makeup until recently but figured I would give it a honest try. My routine is very bare-bones. I use the concealer under the eye and lightly dab mineral makeup foundation over the face and finish with some lip balm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-286001 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 22:03:23 +0000 AJ 286001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not much of a make-up gal so FWIW I use Physicians Formula Perfecting Concealer Duo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285995 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 21:58:46 +0000 SW Ann 285995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have tried many; the only one that works is YSL touche eclat. Really. All the others cake, flake, and get into the fine lines. It may seem expensive but one tube lasts about 4-5 months with my everyday use. BTW I too tried the primer after a recommendation at Sephora. I hated it! Took it back--bought the YSL stuff I just mentioned. I've been using this since my 50th birthday, In two weeks--55! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285956 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 21:06:29 +0000 Auburn 285956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a Laura Mercier girl. They have undereye concealers in these pots that you apply with a small brush. I find that the brush really helps work the concealer in right up to the lash line but helps prevent transferring all the oils from your fingers. You just sort of "pat" it on. Then, for ANY concealer, the key is setting it with a loose powder. I do this with a brush as well and like Laura Mercier's transluscent powder (no color)--it just sort of fixes the product in place so it doesn't crease up and move on you! Most Sephoras carry the LM line and have small starter kits that you can try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285934 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 20:47:02 +0000 Cilleena 285934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite concealer is from Clinique. It's their airbrush concealer. Nice coverage, not drying and it doesn't crease on me.</p> <p>I also like Benefit's boiing industrial-strength concealer. It is more of a matte finish, but more coverage than the Clinique.</p> <p>Finally, MaryKay has a nice concealer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285719 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 09:29:55 +0000 Louise 285719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Rute YSL touch eclat, expensive but fab x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285715 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 09:02:30 +0000 rute 285715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh.. you've tried already good ones.. so.. it's difficult.<br /> One that works with me is YSL Touch eclat, for me it's the best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285708 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 08:02:33 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 285708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am pale and pinky so I don't know about shades, but I really like the Revlon Colorstay liquid concealer; I use it mostly for blemishes but it really does stay put unlike most concealers in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285707 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 07:56:04 +0000 Scarlet 285707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If they have the right color, T. LeClerc is the best one I have used in terms of not caking or making lines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-up-adventures-help-me-find-a-concealer#post-285672 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 05:41:07 +0000 elpgal 285672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My biggest challenge is my under-eye circles and I decided to focus on finding a concealer this month. I went to Sephora several times this month, had a consult each time and returned with samples of several concealers. All of these went on fine but they settle in the fine lines and cakes after a few hours. Per their suggestion, I also tried applying primers before I put on the concealer but that did not help much. It's all very frustrating!</p> <p>Can you suggest other products that I should try? I am told I have a very typical Indian complexion with 'yellow' undertones and 'medium-tan' coloring.</p> <p>List of things I've tried:</p> <p>Concealers:<br /> Make Up For Ever Full cover concealer<br /> Tarte Erase Concealer<br /> Nars Concealer<br /> Sephora Perfecting cover concealer</p> <p>Primers:<br /> Perfekt Skin Perfection Gel<br /> Make Up For Ever HD Microperfecting Primer</p> <p>P.S. The under-eye circles are not sleep or allergy related as far as I know. I have had them since childhood. </p>
