Eye brightener?

Isn't there some magically something that you can put under your eyes that make your dark circles go away (at least until you wash your face)? ?And don't say concealer. ?I have that. ?I need something stronger... like spackle...?

I have that.  It's ok.  But I for real have issues with my undereyes.  I hate the dark circles.  I have to use:

the concealer and corrector.  There is nothing short of eye surgery that will fix me.

Short of spackle, I think the only answer people can have is concealer.

BUT, I keep reading about the Amazing Concealer from Amazing Cosmetics. I guess they use it on all the "stars" and in movies, etc....and it can even cover up tattoos, etc. 

I have not tried it yet, but you might want to check it out. I think they have it in Sephora, Ulta and maybe Nordstrom. I read it really will cover the worst of dark circles.

Thanks gals! ?It doesn't matter how much sleep I get, I still look like I've been punched in the face. ?I think it's my allergies. ?

I was thinking there was some brightener or something that you put on that lightens things up. ??

You might be thinking of the Benefit Eye Bright pencil; they carry it at Sephora. I have never had a ton of luck with it, but it might have been user error.  I know a few people who live by it.

Benefit also has something called "Erase Paste", which is a brightening camouflage . I like it, but it doesn't stay on me for very long. Worth a try, though.

I know you said no concealers ... but this stuff has been a godsend for me - I discovered it when pg with DS#1 (and I really, really needed to hide the fact that I was so sick/tired that I looked like I had been abused!) and have used it ever since:

It's worth a drive-by the Lancome counter near you to test it out ... it really hides even the worst dark eyes for me.  Have the person at the counter try a few shades, too - while they say you should use a color one shade darker than your natural skin color, I found I needed something one shade lighter...
