Dermablend’s “Smooth Liquid Camo Concealer.”  It’s brilliant, it’s not drying and doesn’t crease.  You can order it from Ulta.

@Fionna  I concealer with two shades may really help you out.  I know Laura Mercier has one and I am sure their are other brands.

@Katcat1  Some brands have come out w/ concealer palettes. As seasons change, self tanning comes & goes, different shades are needed. Expensive. With these palettes it’s mix ‘n match heaven.

The IT Bye Bye Undereye Concealer and the Age Rewind are very good.  I also like the Younique concealer.  IMO, the results have a lot to do with the application.  If it's a thicker product like the IT or Younique products, only a tiny amount is needed I like using a damp beauty blender to blend it out.  The Age Rewind is thinner so a light tapping motion works.  Baking with a little colorless or translucent powder will set it for the day.

The 2 I have been using lately are:

Clarins Instant Concealer

and

Laura Mercier's Flawless Concealer

I love them both.....

@Fionna  Here is a suggestion -- go to Nordstrom website and type in concealers and then read reviews plus Nordstrom offers free shpg. and returns.  If something does not work for you, you can return it.

You're welcome @namaste000 I'm happy to see the Maybelline works for you, too. I found out about it here on this beauty forum many months ago and it's become a staple in my makeup stash ever since.

@SilleeMee, how do the colors run?  I looked at this online and I see typical colors like fair, light, medium, sand, etc.  Then I see one that says brightener and one that says neutralizer.  I'm not sure what those would be used for? 

I also was reading some reviews that said these run lighter.  I always go a shade lighter with my concealer than my foundation.  I typically am in the medium foundation family and buy light in concealer.  I'm sort of afraid light would be too light in this?

Right now I'm using the Neutralizer shade. That one is color-correcting, universal and it works well to conceal darkness around the eyes. The Brightener shade is exactly what it says...it can be used as an under-eye brightener and is also good for highlighting w/o shimmer. The other shades are like your foundation shades. I usually wear a foundation that is light-tan or medium beige. I have yellow undertones. The Maybelline that looks right on me is the Honey...just a tad darker than I like but it works. The Medium is too light on me and it appears to have a pink-base. I suggest getting the Neutralizer and maybe get the Medium, too for your skin color. This shade chart shows the colors I have seen at Walmart dot com. I know there are some shade charts that show a different set of colors. But this one is the only one I can explain. The other shades I know nothing about and may have been discontinued...?

I use this, @Lipstickdiva.  I use the brightener under my eyes and that is exactly what it does.  It is not glittery or sparkly.  It illuminates.  I never thought of removing the sponge.  I apply it under my eyes and then pat/tap it.  I love it!

BTW, I wear tan in any make up I use if that helps.

@SilleeMee and @Lipstickdiva  This really makes the brightener look pink.  I don't find it that pink at all.
