How can I conceal these under eye circles

I've tried for many many years to conceal my under eye circles, but am still yet to find my perfect concealer.
I'm 38 and a Mum of two, can anyone recommend a good concealer / concealers (if more than one required) and maybe even a good eye cream

I've always looked perpetually like a panda with my dark circles. Whenever I've tried concealer, I've just found it caked up in my wrinkles (not that I even have many!) and it always made me look 10 years older.

Just this week I tried out the Garnier tinted eye roll on and it's a miracle I tell you! I am dark circle free and feel like a new woman! Can't recommend it enough.

Bare Essentuals bisque concealor is great - takes a bit of practice but works well,

Bumbing for you. I bought an Une foundation last week (v pleased with it) and got a concealer free but it's rubbish - and my circles seem to be getting bigger and darker every day. :(

BumPing - am not bumbing for anybody! :)

LOL @ BelligerentGhoul !!

I also love the Garnier tinted eye roll on.. it doesn't cake my eyes and really does work.

Hi , I have the Clinique airbrush concealer which i think is very good and got as a freebie in one of their promotions. Perhaps try it at the counter?

Bobbi Brown Corrector, then Concealer on top is the best I've used.

FabMum1 · 05/02/2011 20:45

Is the Bobbi Brown a two in one? Or two seperate products.

I am just so desperate, nothing works and I always look like a panda or very very tiredSad

I'm going to have the bags removed. end of.

Concealer is better if it's yellow based, Bourjois anti fatigue is a new one which I think is good & Bobbi Brown is great. So it doesn't settle into lines concentrate on applying in the inner corner hollow of you eyes and press into the skin gently, then a little under using same press & roll. Good luck! Smile

try normal concealer, then a GREAT foundation and blusher, I use chanel pro lumiere and its worth it

I look like I have not taken eye make up off alot of time time.....

The Bobbi Brown correcter and concealer are two separate little pots that last a good time.

Correcter goes on first, then the concealer.

On the demo video on her site the make up artist whacks it on with a trowel Grin but I don't use quite that much.
