Cheaper alternatives to Touch Éclat for tired looking Mummy

Hi there!

Looking for a cheaper under eye concealer as bags look awful but now on a budget due to maternity leave. Any recommendations? Am going to Marks later and they have a new beauty counter - anyone tried their version (assuming they do one)? Thanks!

Not.tried it myself but the Lacura one from alfi gets mentioned a lot on here and is less than a fiver I believe

No 7 one is made in the same factory as te from ysl.

Yes, really. It is the same thing albeit repackaged.

I used to work for boots, and prior to that 7 years in clinique and 3 years for chanel.

I use the Collection 2000 one. I used to use Touché Éclat but since I've swapped couldn't justify the price now.

Maybelline do a really good clicky pen concealer.

I like the Body Shop one.

GobblersKnob · 21/09/2013 14:32

Meant to add there is nearly always a 40/50% off code floating around for the Body Shop, making it £7/8, bargain.

I also use the Collection 2000 one, its really good. I have a frown line that I hate and by some sort of witchcraft the light reflecting properties of this concealer renders it almost invisible.

Collection 2000 one. Doesn't smell like dirty rags after a few days either.

(though remember to check face in artificial light before going out to ensure no reverse panda thing going on! I only use it in corners of eye socket to lift, not underneath)

I use a normal concealer and then line my eye bag with a white eyeliner pencil and then blend. Also, I use the white eyeliner on my bottom water line. It's really effective.

The Aldi one is amazing!! £3.49 I think, it's worth trying it for that much Grin

SundaySimmons · 21/09/2013 18:14

Collection 2000 nod from me as well. I prefer it to touché éclat.

Wow thanks for the replies everyone :) will probably give the Aldi one a try for the money it doesn't matter!
