Something that won't make my skin look dry, especially under my eyes.

I don't use it often, but I've noticed darker circles these day.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Alot are loving lauren huttons, I have her concealer which was included in the lid of her tinted mostiuriser and its pretty good doesnt seem to settle in lines and look all weird an hour after applying, the YSL touche is more like a highlighter, nice but does anyone know what that funky smell is?

i know you're probably looking for something more high-end, but if you need something in the meantime, i actually really like maybelline's cover sticks, which you can get pretty much anywhere

Bobbi Brown cream concealer is great for undereyes and it definately won't dry out under your eyes

Yes, Bobbi Brown Bisque or Light Bisque is great as a "corrector"

They also have a "travel size" which has a small amount of the corector, the concealer, and the powder all in one. And brushes really help apply it the right way. Good way is to just go in to a Marshall Fields or Nordstroms and let them put it on. Takes the guess work out of it.

My skin, including that around my eyes, is really dry and I also have fine lines.

But FINALLY, I have now found my absolutely perfect undereye concealer. Unfortunately, it's also one of the most expensive I've come across. (Why does that always happen, eh? Rolling Eyes

)

Anyway, it's one that has already been mentioned a few times in this forum - Clé de Peau Correcteur, and I believe there are 3 different shades.

Having searched so long for something that wouldn't work into my undereye lines and make them look even worse than they actually are, I decided to take the plunge whilst I was in Paris last weekend. (I hadn't seen it on sale here in the UK.)

It comes in a wind-up stick format and you can apply it either with your fingers or a brush. Personally, I prefer to use the brush as you tend to get better coverage. You then just pat gently in, using your ring finger and the concealer melts perfectly to blend with your skin.

This is the only undereye concealer I can put on first thing in the morning with it still looking good and not settling into my lines by night time. It's also nicely hydrating, so keeps my undereye skin looking soft and not at all dry.

I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. As I said, the only problem is the blummin' price.

I just purchased ColorStay Concealer and it works pretty well. It stays forever and is not drying.

I had the same problem of dry circles and few fine lines...After trying different kinds of concealer i finally found my favorite one. It's called MAGIC CONCEALER from HELENA RUBINSTEIN..It really worths a try because it has a light texture but at the same time can cover black circles with a natural look and without showing the fine lines as many other concealers do. However, it's not good enough to conceal other things in the face (pimples for example) so i can only recommend it for the under eye area. One last good thing about it, the tube seems to last forever, very rich one.
