The Concealer That Makes Me Look Awake AF I've never been a good sleeper. Between my racing mind and knack for sinking into a Netflix rabbit hole or juicy novel right before bedtime, I never seem to catch enough zzz's. And it shows: Right under my eyes...in circles that have only become more defined over the years.
While I dutifully slather on under-eye treatments morning and night, day-to-day I need a quicker fix, which I've found in It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer, $24. I'm not saying it's magic, but if you told me it was conjured by Hermione Granger in Potions class, I would totally believe you.
Its thick, creamy, full-coverage texture makes dark circles vanish -- in a poof-they're-gone kind of way -- without creasing. It's also got a slightly dewy finish that brightens the area, making me look more awake. Plus, the formula contains skin-loving ingredients, like vitamins C and K, which makes me feel like I'm cramming in as much under-eye TLC as possible.
And like any person who claims to witness the supernatural, I've quickly become a Bye-Bye Under Eye evangelist. Once I went as far as to forcibly apply it to some of my most over-worked, under-rested pals during a girls' weekend. (After seeing the product's peeper-perk-up powers, they became believers, too.) So even though my mind still races at night, I don't ever lose sleep over my under-eye circles. --Mary Squillace
