Concealer Conversation

Concealer is something that I use everyday. Even if I dont wear any other makeup I will apply some concealer to cover up redness around my nose or dark under eye circles. Currently in my rotation I am using: lancome effacernes waterproof long lasting undereye concealer in porcelaine 1. I just started using this last month and Im so glad that I discovered it. It lasts all day!!! And they have tones of shades so you can mix and match for your skin tone. I went a few shades lighter to counteract my dark undereye circles.  Before I was using glo.minerals oil free concealer in natural. I got this 2 years ago at my dermatologist office. I used it until it was empty and I would have repurchased it but they are no longer carrying the line. It was the first concealer that I used in years that didnt cause me breakouts but it was not long lasting even with powder ontop to set. I needed to apply 3x a day which is annoying. No that I have discovered how amazing lancome concealer is I think im going to stay with it ( I do want to try that cle du peu sometime even if its crazy expensive. Its a small price to pay for something that is important and you use everyday). Last night I purchased lancomes maquicomplet concealer in camee. So far I am really liking it.  No skim reaction and it lasted all night. 
Mac prep + prime highlighter in light boost. I use this for contouring and inner corners of my eyes. Its ok. I think I need a tutorial at the mac counter to discover its true potentail. Giorgio armani master corrector in 2 is what I have been using in the summer for undereye concealer. Its too dark for the winter and im not loving the formula. I dont think I will be re purchasing this product. Another item that i use in the darkest part of my undereye area is benefits eyebright pencil. I would rather it be an easier formula to apply. The pencil is tough on that delicate area. Im on the hunt for something similar. Lastly is nars larger than life long wear eyeliner in rue Bonaparte.  I know its an eyeliner but it technically a concealer for your waterline. I prefer a nude pencil to white. Its less harsh.
