Hey, anyone got a recommendation for an under eye concealer for dark rings that doesn’t sit in creases and age me by 10 years? Don’t want to pay much tbh, £15 ish

I was recommended nars radiant creamy concealer. But i think it makes my creases and wrinkles look worse.
i prefer estee lauder double wear. Both around £20. I do think unfortunately, makeup is better for younger skin. But you could just apply it to the corners of the eye as it doesnt make the wrinkles too pronounced this way.

That’s a great idea about placement because you’re right in that it’s the outer parts of my eyes that look the worst and they’re not dark! Thanks

I have a Bobbi brown colour corrector stick that works well for me, it's creamy and doesn't sit in creases

For creasing, the formula matters more than the price point. Look for a creamy hydrating concealer with glycerin or hyaluronic acid in the base. Peach or salmon undertone underneath a skin-toned shade works better than layering coverage alone for dark circles. Plenty of options well under £15 carry these qualities if you check the formula/ingredients than brand names.

Rimmel lasting radiance or the maybelline rewind one always do the job (but I love Nars so maybe take my recommendation with a pinch of salt!!)

Tropic liquid concealer but it's a bit over your price point.
