Top Five Concealers

Achieve complexion perfection with these all-star cover ups

Any woman will tell: diamonds aren’t a girl’s best friend — concealer is. Whether you’re battling bags, blemishes, or fine lines, the right concealer can work wonders. We’ve rounded up the best cover up for every type of skin concern. Read on to find your new BFF.

Blemishes: Miracle Skin Transformer™ Treat and Conceal

When pesky zits pop up (which happens far more frequently than we’d like), hiding them is equally as important as healing them. Reach for Miracle Skin Transformer's™ Treat and Conceal, a creamy formula that blends like a dream and is packed with complexion-improving ingredients like white rose and chamomile. Plus, it’s loaded with witch hazel to keep skin clear and prevent future breakouts.

Undereye Circles and Bags: Benefit Ooh La Lift

We’ve come to terms with the fact that we are perpetually tired, but that doesn’t mean we need to look it. Benefit’s brilliant Ooh La Lift makes us look fresh, even if we’re running on adrenaline and lattes. The color-correcting formula banishes circles with just a few dabs and tiny light-reflecting particles instantly perk up droopy eyes.

Fine Lines: Clinique Line Smoothing Concealer

One of our pet peeves is taking a closer look at our under eye concealing handiwork only to spy a multitude of fine lines. Leave it to Clinique to answer our prayers with its Line Smoothing Concealer. This genius product goes one step beyond camouflaging and actually fills in fine lines and wrinkles. The result is well-rested, more youthful looking eyes — who doesn’t love that?

Natural Coverage: Mineralogie Ultimate Cream Concealer

We always want maximum coverage, but not the cakey look that comes with it. Mineralogie’s Ultimate Cream Concealer has the benefit of being both heavy-duty and natural looking, with a formula that blends seamlessly into skin. And, because it contains UV-protecting moisturizing ingredients that means that we happily overuse it.  

Brightening: YSL Touche Éclat

When makeup artists swear by it, beauty editors hoard it, and models wouldn’t be caught dead without it, you know it’s a good product. Such is the case with YSL’s iconic Touche Éclat. Part concealer, part highlighter, this chic pen can mask discoloration and provide a luminous finish with a single swipe.
