Lighten Up! Help for Those Dark Circles



I am no longer sleeping through the night thanks to hormonal shifts. Consequently, for the first time in my life, I have dark circles that have taken up residence under my eyes. This sent me on a new product category quest to find the best under-eye concealer. The best one for me turned out to be Vincent Longo Cream Concealer. It has many fine attributes: It covers beautifully, blends with other makeup, has a non-greasy, glide-on texture and comes in many shades. I use it under my eyes, but it can also be used as a blemish concealer. My only hesitation: It does sink into the creases under my eyes. It does so less than other products. In my quest, I tried at least 11 different under-eye concealers. None were creaseless, and I’m not really sure how a creaseless product could exist if someone, like me, has creases in her face. So with that caveat, it is still a wonderful cover-up and has worked better than the others I have tried. The suggested retail price is $26.50; it can be purchased at Sephora, Sephora.com and other high-end cosmetic retailers. The .15 oz container lasts me close to six months.
