Skip ahead to see why reviewers think these camouflaging makeup products are the 16 best concealers.
To help you find your new secret best friend, we rounded up the highest rated eye concealers and acne concealers, as reviewed by Total Beauty readers. These favorite makeup products go above and beyond to keep your skin looking flawless. But before we "out" the best under eye concealers for brightening dark circles and green concealers for hiding acne or redness, check out these quick tips for natural-looking concealer application:
Makeup artist Patty Bunch says instead of globbing on a ton of concealer for under eye circles, combine a light, moisturizing concealer with your face lotion so it doesn't look so dry and caked-on.
For the most natural makeup finish, apply concealer before your foundation. After you hide your pimples, skin discoloration and other blemishes, blend a bit of concealer around the sides of your nose, where even if you don't have broken capillaries, you often get unflattering shadows.
Now, see the 16 best concealers. You won't want to apply foundation without them.
