Beauty Tried And Tested: Under-Eye Concealer Pens
Want to know what the best beauty products are before you buy? LOOK is here to help... this week our very own Beauty Editor Sophie Beresiner and LOOK reader Leigh McAlpine have put under-eye concealer pens to the test...
- George at Asda Under-Eye Concealer, £4.50
Beauty Editor: The yellow tones in this were great at balancing dark shadows and the best thing is you can pick it up on your weekly supermarket shop! Leigh: This one tended to sit on top of the skin and took some effort to blend in but it camouflaged dark zones as well as any premium brand product. Beauty Score: 3/5
Beauty Editor: An illuminating concealer that was easy to apply but needed touching up after a few hours. Better for dark shadows than full-on bags! Leigh: This is pretty thick and didn't blend easily. I had to apply quite a lot to get a good coverage. I’m not sure I’d buy this again. Beauty Score: 2/5
Beauty Editor: This doesn’t just cover up imperfections, it brightens too. A quick sweep of this under each eye and I looked completely refreshed. Made my early start almost bearable! Leigh: This one came in a luxurious velvet case and was lovely to use. You have to twist to refill the brush rather than click but it was just as good at covering bags. Beauty Score: 4/5
- Lacura Beauty Concealer Pen, £3.59
Beauty Editor: I used this in the corners of my eyes and they looked instantly brighter. The light consistency meant it didn’t look cakey either. Eight hours sleep in a single click! Leigh: This one was the best for my skin and really easy to use. It blended straight in and covered any dark circles perfectly. I would definitely buy this one. Beauty Score: 5/5
