i HATE HATE HATE my dark circles

I have tried everything and NOTHING really works. i bought a very$$ concealer that a makeup artist(acttually a vendor on liw) used on me and it works ok ( better when she did it) but I cant afford to use it everyday. Just venting and looking for advice if anyone has any. TIA
Currently i am using avon products where there is a cream and then a very light cream almost like concealer you use over it.

Re: i HATE HATE HATE my dark circles

did you try Benefits Boing? I HIGHLY recommend it for dark circles.

What concealer thdid the make up artist recomend?

I have the same problem.

Currently I am using Origins Youthtopia as an eye cream--not sure if it helps wih the circles though, and 2 concealers.

I use Clinique All About Eyes first, but it is a little dark for me, so then I put on my foundation & Maybeline's mineral power concealer to match my foundation.

I was using MUFE High Definion concealer, btu I went through it very fast & didn't love it enought to re-buy.

I liked Yves St. Laurent Concealer ( not the touch eclat), when I tried the tester in Sephora, but it is out of stock in color #2 everywhere.

ETA- You can get Benefit Boing in Sephora. I looked at it, but didn't think the colors were right for me.

I have been using Mally products. She has this great eye brightener.

It goes on as a powder, than turns to a liquid as you are blending. A little goes a long way. I use this everyday & it covers up my circles & instantly brightens my face up. LOVE this. It's $$ for the size of the bottle, but worth it IMO.

I also use her Cancellation Concealer Kit.

The MAC concealer in the little pot works WONDERS! I have dark circles but have been using this for years and never leave home without it.

I know what you mean. That's the Touche Eclat.
It didn't cover enough for me. Touche eclat

I like this one
anti-cernes

I was having trouble finding it, but I see now I can order it directly.
It is also expensive. Maybe I will try MAC if I can deal with the beotches in the store. They seem to have a wide range of colors in their foundations & concealers.

Unfortunately not really much you can do with them, especially if they are hereditary . no cream will really make them go away, just need to make sure you drink enough water, get enough sleep , use a moisturizer and conceal them. I also know that sometimes they can be caused by a kidney or heart disease/or some kind of condition.
I know this bc I have always had the problem (my dad has themChat Icon )
I have talked to numerous doctors and have read a lot about the issue .
I also have a heart condition which I developed during pregnancy and that has made my dark circles even worseChat Icon
