Any good, cheapish undereye concealers?

for those who have mostly bluish white fair skin, with impressive dark shadows?

The last ones I've bought (body shop, and garnier roll-on) are far too yellow

Yes yes to BeneFit, but I use their It Stick for undereyes, and Bo-ing as a concealor. Both the best I've found.

I generally use rather expensive make-up but the best concealer I have found is a Rimmel stick one and it is aroud £4 I think. I do use Benefit Lemon Aid on top of it but that is because I have very dark eyelids too.

Thanks all,

Is bo-ing also called "erase paste"?

Mac do 3 types of concealer ( stick, liquid with sponge applicator and a little pot) in loads of shades. My DD who is 18 and very very pale can match her shade here.(about £14)

I use Clinique airbrush (about £14) in a pale shade (brush pen) and it is much better than the yellow toned lightest Touche eclat that was useless to me.

I have also used a bourjois pen style one that was £6.50 or £7 I think - it was alright but not as good at covering the blue shadows, but fine for the price.Would use again if on a hard up month

erase paste much thicker. Boiing a lighter texture, good coverage

Erase paste is not Bo-ing - it's creamier. I like it.

Rimmel 'Hide the Blemish' stick.

Or Boots Natural Collection cover up stick is good - it has a matt, powdery finish and comes in fair, non-yellowy colour!

That's it, hide the blemish. I was too lazy to get up and look in my make-up bag.

Oh Cyb, I been wanting surgery since I was about 18 [desperate emoticon]. My creases are now complemented by attractive blue-ish shading. The trouble is I now have competition for the bits that need attention, they are so numerous.

Bobbi brown do a great concealer in a pot with some powder under in in another pot- not too cheap at £21 or thereabouts BUT it lasts for ages- mine do about a year AND it does work
