The only concealer I have ever used is Mac's Select Cover up but it doesn't cover anything!I have problem with darc circles, I have them since I was born,my mum has the same dark circles too!! Well I've seen many concealers in the market and I'm thinking of buying Dior's Skinflash!What do you say?I don't want a heavy cakey concealer because I don't wear foundation too often so I want the concealer not to be so heavy!!! I want your suggestions from any brand!!

Wow, I'm surprised that MAC's select cover up didn't work for you...I think it gives great coverage! Anyway, there are several I can recommend: "Diorlift Smoothing Anti-Fatigue concealer," NARS stick concealer, or Benefit's "Lyin' Eyes" (I just tried this the other day... its EXCELLENT!)
Skinflash works well because of its reflective qualities-- it counteracts the dark circles with an iridescent shimmer.

Here's the link for Benefit "Lyin' Eyes"... you can buy it on Sephora.com, or on the Benefit website.

That's why Mac's turning into grey on me?Because it's light? I'm a NC20 and the Mac MUA gave me Select Cover in NW25,she told me that I had to get darker concealer in order to cover them!So why is this turning into grey on me?? I've never heard of Estee Lauder's Dissapear before!! I'll check it out at the esteelauder's site!!

One thing i will say is dont go for a concealer lighter than your skintone, despite what you hear/read this does not help dark circles, it just makes the area look grey! match your skintone to get maximum coverage, this is whats works best for all my clients x

 
Well Trisha I think Estee Lauder's Dissapear it's not here in Greece!The only EL concealers we have is Lucidity and Re Nutriv!

 
I've got bad dark circles too, and so far, Max Factor Panstik has been my favorite concealor. It's actually marketed as a foundation stick, but I use it as a concealor since it's such full coverage. I also like Clinique City Cover Compact Concealor. HTHS!!

I haven't think of a Clinique's concealer!
