Dark circles are a tricky enemy. You can't just combat them with a typical skin-toned concealer. You have to attack the root cause of dullness by correcting the blues and purples. Because once you offset these colors, your regular concealer won't have to work too hard to hide your tired eyes.
Here are the three types of color correcting concealers that can instantly make you look brighter and well-rested:
PEACH
For mild dark circles, a touch of peach on the discolored areas is a good base for your regular concealer.

ORANGE
Orange is blue's anti-color. It sits on the opposite side of the color wheel and it corrects the dullness from those sleepless nights.

YELLOW
If all you need is some more light under your eyes, yellow is your best bet. It'll lift your undereye area back up and highlight the eyebags away.
