The dark circle under my left eye is more prominent than it is on my right and everytime I do my makeup I keep having to pile on the concealer to cover it. I've read tons of articles saying that the best drugstore concealer is the maybelline fitme so I've been using that one but I still have to apply it more than once to cover completely. any tips? oh and I do use a shade thats slightly lighter than my skintone cause thats what the experts say.

Usually this tip is used to hide blemishes but I find it works for dark circles too firstly decide on what colour th circle specifically is then choose the opposite colour on the colour wheel for example a dark purple equals a mint green which you CAN get in concealer then apply that I he dal circle afterwards apply a normal concealer over the top always choose the matching colour then go one shade lighter now that you have applied both concealers use a foundation if needed to blend in hope this helps

Coastal sents concelar palatte is way good! You only have to use it once to cover up the circles.

You need a color correcting concealer. Like Meghan said, you can use a mint green or even a salmon color. Or you can buy something already "premixed." You should dab/pat it in if you use your finger, don't rub. Also, DO NOT apply foundation over your concealer because it won't set in your under eye area and will only smudge your concealer. You can use a color lighter to make your eyes look brighter :)

For redness use a green concealer and for purple/ dark under eyes use a peachy concealer.
