Best concealor for dark undereye circles...both drugstore and $$$?
My circles worsen as allergy season approaches 
I'm a fan of Phys Form CircleRx, but have no experience with higher end items....and I don't really have the cash to experiment with several.
What are your picks?
Drugstore: ?
Higher End: ?

Drugstore: Physicians formula talc free mineral cream concealer
I use it in fair, but it also comes in yellow, which can help with blue-ishness. You may want to do fair light over that.
Or maybe use this:
(I've never tried it)
Concealer twins
I see you've tried a different physicians formula--I think they're concealer & foundation products are great, so maybe just try other things they offer.
Higher End: Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage or Secret Concealer
The camouflage is drier- it doesn't budge--a little harder to blend, but you get 2 shades, and it can be used on other things that need to be covered.
The concealer is oilier--better if you have dry skin under your eyes.
If you go to Sephora, you can try them out , which may actually save you money over buying a ton of drugstore ones.

I love the Laura Mercier secret camouflage. I agree that it is a little dry, but I first apply a layer of face / eye cream and then put the camo right on top of it.
I agree with the PP who said go to Sephora and try it. I used to use Boing (concealer) and Lemon Aid (yellow under eye concealer) by Benefit, but the color was a little off on me. I find the Laura Mercier stuff to look a little more natural.
Good luck!

Landcome Photogenic - works best when you apply it with a brush. I use a foundation brush as opposed to a concealer brush- I find it blends better.

For under eyes I use Laura Mercier secret concealer. I have been using it for 2.5 years and I love it. I use the camoflage for zits and red areas on other parts of my face.
Before that I was using something by Prescriptives in a tube that was pretty good too.
