I've been thinking of trying MAC pro longwear concealer for under my eyes because I've heard it has good coverage and doesn't crease. I have very dark under eye circles and also some fine lines that cause my concealer to crease. My only concern with trying it is that I also have very dry under eyes. Have any of you found it to be overly drying?

I have very similar issues to you, actually. It is a really great concealer, but I do actually find it to be rather drying on occasion. My suggestion to you would be to go to Mac and ask for a sample. They will give you one for free, and you can try it out until you've formed an opinion. If you think it's too drying for you, after you've tried it for a bit, I absolutely suggest the Nars Radiant Creamy concealer. It's completely wonderful. It's such a nice texture and consistency, very similar to the Mac Pro Longwear, but a bit thicker and creamier, which makes it less drying but just as helpful at covering dark circles =)

I use that concealer and don't find it too drying but I always prep with a hydrating eye cream beforehand. I have dark circles nothing major but I have found that the concealer doesn't completely cover them unfortunately. Like Hannah has suggested you should try and get a sample of it and see how you get on. It has great staying power and doesn't crease but coverage is not amazing. I actually prefer nyx hd concealer because the coverage is excellent no creasing and lasts all day too.

I would definitely get a sample before purchasing. You should always hydrate your under eye circles as dehydration can contribute to there apperance. If you find it troublesome to conceal your under eye circles, I would look into color color corrector as it makes a world of a difference. NYX has a under eye corrector as well as Bobbi Brown.
