A serious solution for one of beauty’s most challenging problems! No fancy names just a product that can be counted on to do the job. The product glides on without looking thick or obvious. The subtle hint of orange counteracts the appearance of dark circles while natural skin-toned pigments work in unison to provide the ultimate coverage.

Not the holy grail I hoped it would be

I stumbled upon this product in Farmers one day. I'd never heard of it, and with my pale skin, frankly wondered if it would be too dark for me. But I took a risk (the $15 price tag might have swayed me). It seems to do the job OK, although it settles quite badly into my crepey under-eye area, which is a real pain. I set it with the ELF HD Under Eye Setting Powder but it still creases. It did adjust to my pale skin tone very well though, so that's a bonus (always a problem for me). Certainly not the best under-eye concealer I've come across but good value for the price.

Tips: Less is more!

Such a good find!

I went looking for this in the NYX store when I was overseas and was about to buy the lighter shade but the lovely guy instore thought I needed extra help and recommended the darker one, he gave me some great advice and the product works so so well!! So glad I got this over the Becca one that is 4 times the price. Sometimes my dark circles are horrendous but this covered them up well, not cakey and just melts into the skin.

Tips: It is a little bit greasy but if you set it you're good to go!

NYX Dark Circle Concealer Review

This product comes in a small, round container, that seals shut and is the perfect size for travel and everyday use. That's about where my love for this product ends. I found that this product didn't do anything but make my skin feel greasy and make my under eye area look cakey and dry.

I've tried colour correctors in the past and liked them. I bought this product in the shade 02 light/pale and it was an orangey colour that's very sheer. It has a waxy, oily texture, but I found it dried out my skin. I tried applying it under foundation, over foundation, with and without concealer, but I couldn't make it work for me. I felt like it didn't help with concealing any dark circles, if anything, I found it drew more attention to them.

PERFECTION!

This is amazing! Thanks to Nicole Guerriero for putting me onto this! It works wonders. I apply it under my foundation when im having a real bad day of under my concealer if I need a little bit of help.

Tips: Best applied with a synthetic brush or your finger.

A new favourite

After using up all of my Lancome concealer from my Lancome Teint Visionnaire Foundation duo which was my favourite cream concealer, I have been trying to find another similar. I used some Mac concealer in a stick and really liked that too but when I saw the NYX dark circle concealer and that it was only around $15 I had to try it and I love it. I have really bad dark undereye circles. I keep hoping they'll get better as my kids get older and I get more sleep but I'm afraid that might just be my face now. So I gently dab a bit of this under my eyes and side of my nose, a little on my eyelids and also use it as a general concealer for any blemishes and then gently blend. I can even wear it just with my Olay BB cream for day to day wear. I shared it with some friends who also loved it. It's not super high coverage but I prefer that to a heavy caked look. It covers the circles enough for me! I also notice another reviewer says not for dry skin or fine lines as a mum in her 30's with dry/sensitive skin and beginning to get some lines I have no problem, but do use your fingertips not a brush to apply so it smooths out nicely :)

Tips: Use your fingers not a brush and gently dab and blend for a smooth finish!

There's barely any coverage here, and even if I'm using it under a regular concealer, it doesn't make much of a difference in erasing dark circles. The color of it (salmony orange) isn't brightening and only marginally hides dark undereyes because the formula is very greasy and semi-sheer.

I don't like giving products low ratings, but this ended up greasing up my undereye area without really helping to cover anything. It felt like another unnecessary step in my makeup routine. I gave color correcting a shot but it feels like another gimmick for makeup companies to churn out unneeded products.

Horrible stuff

i saw this concealer when nyx brand first time landed in farmers. but i was confusion about right colour for my skin.beacause this concelar has only four colour to choose from. after confusion about while i bought it without think about to much. beacause it is just 15$. i got the medium shade

guess what. it is right shade for me. i am nc40 - nc42 so if your around my shade in mac this conclear is perfect match for you. i have really bad dark circle. if you have black or blue dark circle like me this working Like magic

i spent 15$ and i got only 2.9g product. but you think other way like you buy orange corrector and conclear then you spend more than that. am i right? this is perfect option for when i feel little lazy to apply orange corrector and concealer.

i swirl my concealer brush on product to warm it up. spread with brush and use real technique sponge to apply properly. you have to use fingers or brush to warm it up product. because product it self is very thick to use direct on delicate eye area.

After using one week I noticed around my eyes dry patches and my skin looks horrible. Usually I don't have that problem. I put the eye cream daily underneath however around eye skin looks like old lady. I discontinued this product and leave it in my bag when I really need that time I will use it. I strictly don't recommend for dry skin and who have fine line. This stuff is great for who has oily skin.

it is little bit time consumeing for me in morning to warm it up product. i don't have more time to sit and do my makeup. i have only 5 to 7 minute for my basic makeup. i will keep it on my bag to fix my dark circle rather than carry two products.

High end quality, low end price

This is by far the most effective, affordable under eye concealer I have ever tried. Often I will pick this over the higher end versions just because of it's quality and long lasting abilities.

Coming in a small round pot, with a screw on domed lid, this looks underwhelming. Even once you open it and see the product poured into place with a slight glossy appearance across the top and a deeper than you imagined shade of orange. Well I can say put those fears aside a dig in!

What is amazing about this dark circle concealer is it has this thick texture in a deeper orange than your regular high end versions which once you have it out of the pot and on your finger starts to show it's true worth, it has this almost buttery softness that glides onto the skin, yet manages to hold itself above the lines and resists the urge to fall into the creases. Once set into place with a light dusting of setting powder, this baby will not budge until your take it off with your method or choose for makeup removal.

For under $15, my hopes were not that high but boy was I wrong. The combination of it's buttery texture and deep colour means that it hides those dark circles perfectly and doesn't melt or fade away allowing them to shine through from behind, no this keeps those dark circles on lockdown!

I was so confused about this product when I was in farmers. They don't have tasters over there. I want this product because I have very bad dark circles.
