But it is considered a вЂњtreatmentвЂќ concealer, infused with an ingredient called Haloxyl that is said to rid the skin of the colored pigments that make for dark circles. ItвЂ™s definitely not as thick as other beloved concealers (you couldnвЂ™t squeeze ClГ© de Peau through a sponge), but I donвЂ™t mind because it does the job, possibly even better. Unlike ClГ© de Peau, where it takes a bit more finagling (or a brush) to apply exactly where I want it, the Maybelline sponge easily follows the contour of my under-eye.

Pressing it directly under my downturned eyes, the little round applicator bounces seamlessly across my pale complexion. It caught my attention mostly because of the sponge. But the only one I would actually buy for myself is MaybellineвЂ™s Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment Concealer. More options slid across my desk: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, Tarte Shape Tape, Fenty Beauty Pro FiltвЂ™r Concealer. The twist-up tube applies smoothly with or without a brush (IвЂ™m partial to blending with my fingers) and melts into my skin.

After seeing the $70 price tag, I felt especially lucky that, thanks to the magazine-world gods, I was able to try it for free. When I started working in magazines, everyone advised me to try ClГ© de Peau because itвЂ™s the вЂњholy grailвЂќ of concealers. No matter how much sleep I get or what top-of-the-line eye cream I try, I always wake up with heavy purple under-eye circles that seem impossible to hide.
