Why does concealer not work?

i have tried different concealers, expensive and not expensive. it never fully cover my dark circles, i have to put a lot on just made it lighter but it didnt blend with the rest of my skin color. it gets cakey sometimes.Why does concealer not work?
that happens to many people





what you need to do is cancel out the color of you under eye


a make up specialist should be able to do this





every color has a color that is opposite of it


the opposite of red is green


so if you apply that color on top of your under eyes


and then put on a concealor it is much more likely to work


the opposite of blue is orange





that is why they sell green coverup of acne it cancels out the red and then you can put on regular concealorWhy does concealer not work?
mabey it's because the shade you're using doesn't match your skin tone.
get a concealer one shade lighter than ur skin ton in yellow. i use physician formula concealer. rub the concealer on the back of ur hand to warm it up so there will be no cakeyness, then pat it on the dark areas. add powder to set it in

foundation and then powdered conceler will do the trick!!!!
Oh my gosh I totally agree. I have spent from $3 to $30 on one and still does not work for me. I have blotchy skin with occasional breakouts and everyone always looks cakey or noticeable or just doesn't cover at all. I'll check back to see others answers but I agree with you completely.
dats what i use to say about everyconcealer to it wud either not match my color or not cover my small pimples or dark circles untill i started using macys benefit concealer it's only $18 its small but works so good i always wear it nd it hides my pimples....it makes a huge difference
My doctor recommended the cucumbers AND told me that the dark circles can be from poor sinus problems???? I don't know if you have allergies?? but he recommended a nose spray for my daughter and over the last year this has helped!!
dont put on a lot


in fact never put on a lot


sometimes what happens is that, at the beginning it seems it's not covering, but just dont worry about it


put on foundation and powder


then before you know it


it's concealing =)





b/c sometimes it takes time to let the makeup set ya know


it wont right away set


otherwise it's goign to get washed out really soon LOL


=)





oh always powder your neck to match your face


it's a must!!!!


a lot of girls dont do that and end up looking ovoiusly madeup LOL
i saw one girl up orange lipstick over the dark circle, then put her concler, then powder and it was great. I have also seen people put a base like UDPP then conceler etc and that worked as well.
Try a shade darker. That may help. Also, use your ring finger to blend it in in circles. I have found this works also.
