This is the best undereye concealer i've tried by far. It stays put and covers my circles especially after late night study sessions! if your looking for a concealer and you have sensitive skin definitely give this one a try!

WOW. Coverage is amazing. The color is also very blendable, as I am in-between colors with the other tarte concealers. It did crease a bit, but with tarte finishing powder it was fine :) This is my new favorite concealer ever!

LOVE the concealer, but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE give us the option to purchase it WITHOUT the brush!!!!

I have purchased this concealer several times and love it, but I have decided not to purchase again until I can purchase it without the brush. I would give the concealer five stars (or more) if I could purchase it without the brush.

I don't know what to do with all the unused brushes -- I am trying to go green, and have decided that I am only contributing to the problem if I continue to buy the concealer with the brush. I've read the reviews on several different websites and others have requested that the concealer be sold without the brush.

I noticed on the Tarte website that they are going green, so I hope that they practice what they preach and offer this without the brush. You will most likely see sales on this item increase as the concealer will be more affordable for those of us who have to watch our money.

I've always had dark circles under my eyes, and previously used benefit boi-ing for years. I've officially converted to Circle Defense. I love that it comes with a brush, and although it's a bit pricey, it lasts a long time. I can't say I've noticed an improvement in my under eye circles, but at least I can camouflage them with this product. It really brightens my eyes, and isn't too heavy or cakey.

I LOVE this under eye concealer!!! I have tried hundreds (not kidding) of concealers to hide my dark circles; from drug store purchases to high end purchases, nothing comes close to this! This is a miracle for my dark circles that I inherited. This does not settle into fine lines and it goes on very smooth! I also use it to cover up blemishes that pop up every now and then and it does wonders covering those up too! The size of the pot is very small but a little goes a long way...definitely worth the price! Tarte team, PLEASE don't ever discontinue this product!

This is my absolute favorite Tarte product! I'm a gal who's constantly fighting with my dark under-eye circles and this concealer keeps them hidden SO well. This product wears great even when you wear it without tinted moisturizer or foundation. I never let myself get low on this stuff. Comes with a great little applicator brush too!

This is now my favorite concealer! I have tried so many different kinds and could never find one that would stay or that would match my skin tone but this one does. It really helps to conceal ( I use it on more than my eyes and it works just as well!) and it blends in so you can't even tell Im wearing concealer. It's creamy, doesn't look dry or make my skin feel dry and stays on all day.

This has become a must have in my makeup collection. Being a full time graduate student, professor, and mother means that I don't get much sleep which results in dark circles around my eyes. I've been hunting for an under eye concealer for quite sometime because most other products look cakey and draw attention to my dark circles rather than concealing them.

This product is just the opposite! Not only does it cover my circles, but it also helps to reduce the puffiness. It is also easy to apply and feels very light and creamy on the skin. I use the brush that comes with the concealer to dab it on and then I use my finger to continue to pat and blend.

I will be buying this again and again.

Best concealer I have ever used. i have a surface facial vein under my eye. This product conceals this and my daughter has dark circles and has tried many products. I bought this for her and she called me and said Mom I love it, it works. Yes it's pricey, but worth it and you need very little product daily. Does not settle in fine lines, works for all ages. I would not purchase any other concealer again. I have tried the best of the best and this is the one that actually does what it says it will do.

The concealer has the perfect texture and peachy-yellow color for hiding undereye circles. I'm always on the lookout for "heal AND conceal" products, so even though this doesn't replace my eye cream, I enjoy the tightening effect it has when I put it on and prefer it when I want to look my best!

This stuff really grows on you. I have used lots of eye concealer and either thrown them all away or returned them. I think this one's a keeper. Applied right, it does not cause creasing. This is a big thing for me - I'm really paranoid about it. I apply it and stare at the mirror and take mental before and after snapshots. I think that this does not cause creases. And since wrinkles can happen when your eyes are too dry, this product keeps your eyes really moisturized and soft and therefore minimizes wrinkles. Conceals very well and stays on all day. So far, favorite part of my morning routine. I'm starting to feel like I can't live without it.

I have hereditary dark circles, deep-set eyes, and oily skin. First I tried using this by itself, but I find it works better if I apply another concealer on top. I don't find that it settles into my fine lines or accentuates the circles, but it does seem to "slide" after a while. I am going to try Smooth Operator and see if that fixes the sliding, because otherwise I really like it.

I have very sensitive skin around my eyes and have to be careful with what I use so they do not dry out. I can use this daily and feel that it has helped to balance the skin around my eye area. I have it fair to light and light to medium so I will always be set no matter what season! I usually don't like using a brush to apply concealer because it can leave brush marks, but this one surprisingly does not! It works really well with the creamy consistency of this concealer...and I can keep my fingers clean! Love it :) The finish is not matte but not quite dewey, I do like to set it with powder.

Jina from NV

I have tried this product with Tart primer underneath, a little product, applying with my finger tips, applying with a brush, using barely any product, without primer, set with powder, left it alone to settle naturally, and still have had no solution with this product. No matter how I try to apply this product it always settles in fine lines below my eyes and where my eyelids crease. It has a very sticky consistency and though the color matches my Ivory 02 foundation, I just can't get it to do what I want. However, a NEW product that is being pre-released on QVC, the Maracuja waterproof creaseless concealer, is a-a-a-a-amazing!

Sorry, I just realized I forgot to review the brush... I will have to say that the brush alone deserves one star only. I am rating the product at four stars because the concealer is of outstanding product.. the brush is stiff.not full.not soft. not many things i wish it was. Sorry. I was not happy with the brush.

I wish there were more stars to give!!! Cannot say enough about this concealer. I have tried many concealers.. all prices/drugstore/non-drugstore/fancy/etc.. I absolutely LOVVVVVVE this concealer!! If you use the cream concealer by Bobbi Brown... this one is SO MUCH BETTER?!! I used to be a bobbi brown concealer fan.. not any more. i absolutely love the consistency of this product as well as every aspect of it!!
- creamy but not oily looking
- not matte looking so your face does not look flat/dull
- skin looks and feels so healthy/rejuvenated
- moisturizing alll day!!! so your undereye area will not look dry AT ALL!!
- lasts all day (although some days i do need to touch up - depending on my crazy days)
- I love how it goes on sooo smooth/light/not cakey at all!!
- and the color is a perfect match for me!! (I wear the Agent 12 tinted moisturizer... Used medium tone on this one.. love love love it!!)

Cant wait for the waterproof stick concealer to become available. I cant wait to try it! Love Tarte Products!!

One more thing... your skin does look more alive over time of using it... I feel like my under-eye circles are not as dark... I promise one day I almost forgot to put it on because under eye color/tone looked so much better!! I'm telling you.. get this product, you will not regret it! Worth evvvery penny!

This concealer is AMAZING! I was not expecting it to work this great. It covers my undereye circles better than anything I have ever tried (and I've tried a lot of concealers). It is only extremely moisturizing...which can be really hard to find in a concealer.

Wow this concealer has done everything they said it would. I rarely have puffiness. Only if I was up all night crying and that happens to everyone. No unexplained puffing anymore. My dark circles are significantly less noticeable. I did not notice it, probably because it was gradual over time. I was using less, but in the morning did not really note or pay attention to that either. That is until I went for a facial. As I was getting eye gel on I was asked what I was doing. I was told to keep it up. This is the only eye product I have changed. If you have hereditary dark circles, give this a go. Worst case, it simply covers your dark circles. I like to apply before my foundation. I use a shade darker (which is better under the eye actually). Blend it a touch with my tarte actm. If I could only use two tarte products they would be this and the tinted moisturizer.

It has the great coverage, and brighten effect for under eye. I use agent10 tinted moisturizer and I need to top this corrector with the earaser concealor, because I don't like having a white circle below my eye. I believe any skin tone lighter than mine may not need to top this with any concealor that matches the skin tone. It does settle a bit in my fine lines though.

Hayley from TX

I had high hopes for this concealer, and I will admit it is alright. My only complaint is the color range. If you are looking at this product online as I did, I would suggest to go to a store that sells tarte products so you are able to get the perfect color to match your skin! I am quite tan so I bought the medium to deep color choice but, it turned out to be a tad too dark for my under eye area. And I am just assuming it works better to have a lighter concealer.. Other than that this concealer is very creamy and comes with a good concealer brush but, it can look too think if you don't run your finger over it after applying. There is some creasing after the day goes on, much better than a drugstore concealer though.

Jessica from MA

This product settles into lines and is darker than the Tarte foundations. I have fair skin and the lightest color it too dark for my complexion. I bought this as a cover up type makeup. The creamy texture of the product is great. My complaints are the color and the fact that it settles into fine lines.

beverly from KY

This stuff really works! I have to admit I was skeptical but I felt like my eyes were starting to give away my age so I thought I would give it a try. After just a couple of weeks the mild puffiness under my eyes was almost gone and by the end of the first month the dark circles were much lighter. It blends nicely with my smooth operator and goes a long way. I've been using it for 6 weeks now and I've barely made a dent in it. This is the concealer I've been looking for all my life!

Mariam from TX

To be honest I love the concept of concealer though I can never find one that works well for me. This concealer has good coverage but I feel like it's too light for me, I bought the light-to-medium as suggested by the sales rep to match my Agent 12 tinted moisturizer.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product! Did I tell you how much I love it? I have always had dark circles under my eyes and they only get worse if I don't drink enough water or get enough rest. I travel a lot for work and rarely get enough sleep so my under eye circles get so dark they almost look like bags. I have tried so many other concealers and color neutralizers/correctors, the only other one that was even remotely effective (from a different brand) is no longer being made so I was in search of something new to use that wouldn't settle into the fine "laugh" lines and crinkles around my eyes. This is THE product. I am so glad I found it! Great product...Thanks Tarte!

This is a great product. Just make sure out get the right color. I bought this in the beginning of the summer and now I'm way to dark for the color I have and it doesn't look good anymore. So just make sure the color is right. Besides that it goes on very smooth and covers well.

This is a very creamy concealer, which has resulted in some settling into the fine lines around my eyes.
I didn't get a brush with mine, so pat it on with my fingers. I don't like having to put my fingers in my makeup, though. It does a good job with my raccoon eyes, but doesn't seem to last all day. It's highly pigmented, and a little goes a long way, so this should last a long time. Wish there were more colors to choose from, too.

this lasts FOREVER! I wish there was more of a color selection. it'd also be nice if it was slightly more of a creamy texture and maybe packaged so that it could squirt out of a tube or something, to be more hygienic. I do like this product however sometimes it can get into the crease under my eye and not look so great, so I mostly just apply on the inner corners and blend it out very thin, which is a little less coverage than I would like. I'm not sure if it's done anything about my dark circles overall but I do love the idea of this product.

I decided to write another review because I have been using it for a while now. I love tarte concealers, well the four I have tried. I have hereditary dark circles and I get puffiness under the eyes. This concealer has helped a good deal with the puffiness. It also covers the under eye darkness beautifully. I just wish it came in a true fair color and a true deep. The fair/light is a touch too dark for my fair wearing skin (I wear the lightest shade of foundation that tarte makes). It works if I am not wearing any foundation, but with foundation it just won't blend. I think if you wear the second lightest foundation/tinted moisturizer by tarte, this will work for you. If you do not wear foundation, but are very fair it will work. If you are very fair and wear a fair foundation, you can use it but only on the actual darkness. Not all over the eye area. Just thought I would update. If tarte made a fair I would repurchase. I have been using it daily and I have barely made a dent in mine. It is expensive, but worth it if you fit into the available shades.

The foundation color I use is IVORY 02 it's a perfect match with LIGHT-TO-MEDIUM concealer. I applied the concealer under my sleep-deprived eyes with small patting motions with the brush included before adding my foundation and topping it off with SMOOTH OPERATOR. After 10 hours of work, it still looks great and gave my eyes needed moisture in the dry desert. A little of this concealer goes a long way!

I am a makeup artist & have used many concealers that work just fine, however I've spent years trying to find the perfect concealer for my mom who has extremely dark circles.

FINALLY! An under eye concealer that does what it's supposed to and doesn't crease, smear, wrinkle, etc... Absolutely in love with this formula and brush. Wish there was a few more in between shades, but I'm not complaining. I use this every day. Even if I'm not putting on foundation, I just dab some on this under my eyes and it makes a huuuge difference! I sometimes use it as a quick concealer for other blemishes. Buy! Buy! Buy! You will not be disappointed!

Awesome concealer! I have redness & dark circles under my eyes and on my eye lids. This completely does the trick. I dont use the brush, just dab it on and blend with my ring finger. However, on a hot day it seems to creep into fine lines but nothing a little more light blending can't fix. I've been using a high end product for years and had to reapply twice a day but not with this concealer!

This is my fisrt purchase from Tarte and I absolutely LOVE it!! I have very uner eye dark circles and had been wearing Lancome concealer for years as I have very sensitive skin...but was never 100% happy, and I have become more aware of Parabens and chemicals in my beauty products in the past two years so I was not wearing makeup every day...and I had heard about Tarte and read reviews...but finally decided to try this line a week ago, and I am in love I also ordered a couple more products (haven't tried them yet) and I hope I will be as happy as with this one....it conceals and is natural!!! I will not buy another concealer for the rest of my life, Tarte circle defense has become my favorite product. Great coverage and comes with a nice brush.

This is fantastic! The brush allows me to get into the corner of my eye to create a natural looking brightness. I also use it to cover the visible vein underneath eye, which I haven't been able to do with any other concealer. It's wonderful, not greasy and doesn't collect in the fine lines.

This is by far the best concealer that I have ever used. I have a drawer full of them, but they can all go in the trash now!! This not only covers dark cirlces, but looks so natural - like you have nothing at all on. It lasts all day long, no touch-ups needed. After finding this wonderful product, I'm going to give Tartes other products a try!

Like Carlyne, i also bought the Medium-to-Deep for Olive/Pacific Islander skin tone. It blends the best as compared to the other shades, I also use a primer as well and set it in with the snooth operator micronized clay finishing powder, You can also use it as a concealer for the nose & cheek area,

Got the Medium-to-Deep for olive/Pacific-Islander skin tone; blends nicely and works well with my mineral foundation. I definitely have seen a reduction in puffiness (been using for over 3 months) and a smoothness to the skin under my eyes. If you're worried about creasing, I use a dab of eye primer underneath to keep it on all day.

I have always had dark under eye circles. This product 100% covers them like they aren't even there. Over the last 2 months of using this, they have reduced by half, and keep fading. This is the BEST product on the market, hands down. Keep up the awesome work Tarte!

I was concerned with how creamy this was when I first applied it, but it never smears or creases. Very nice!

The best concealer that I have ever used. I love it so much that I bought one for my mother in her fifties, she says it is the best concealer that she has ever used too. Number one, it actually covers dark circles. Imagine that, an under eye concealer that actually conceals! Two, it does not settle into fine lines and does not settle into full blown wrinkles. Three, it stays on. My mom is dry, I lean oily and it lasts on both of us. Four, it looks natural, blends easily into your skin tone OR into your foundation. Five, it is good for your eye area. My mother is saying that it has helped, over time, with the puffiness that she has. I am very fair, wear the fair foundation and got the fair to light. My mother is medium to tan in the summer, she got the medium to tan. The color selection is very nice. I will say that after looking at the two if you are on the darker end of a color, you may want to go up one. If you are a darker light, go to the light to medium. I used to think that I could just use the same concealer that I use on my face, under my eyes. I now know that it is better to get one that is made for the eyes, it has made a huge difference.

Used it for the first time today and it is wonderful. Very creamy and the brush is terrific. Coverage was good with no clumping or getting in the fine lines!

I love this concealer! It really does work to cover the darkness and then to decrease puffy eyes as well. I use this with Tarte's "Lifted" eyehadow primer and It really opens up the look of my tired eyes and stressed skin. Like many other reviewers I love the product but have two main complaints- There need to be many more shades and the brush should be sold seperately. I don't know what I will do after I buy my 3rd or 4th pot of this and am stuck with just as many concealer brushes. It seems wasteful to me because...some of them have to go in the trash before their time just because a new one comes with each purchase. I feel like this is a little bit enviornmentally irresponsible. The brush is great quality, if sold seperately then the product wouldn't seem so expensive and the brushes wouldn't go to waste. Also I have very pale skin and I find all of Tarte's make up to be a hair dark (although manageable), and wish they would open up to lighter/deeper/ in between shades. These concealers are especially hard to match with only 4 shades available
I would definately buy this and see what it can do for you!

Best under eye concealer. Easy to apply. It doesn't have aloe (allergy) so also use it lightly as a shadow primer.

Just got this as a compliment to the 4 in 1 eraser. It's a nice lighter alternative and I think the two will work well together. My dark circles immediately disappeared and it was very easy to apply. Another winner! I made the decsision to replace all my makeup with Tarte and I couldn't be more happy!

I actually received this in the flawless face kit about a year ago from sephora, & I wasn't that impressed, however after reading all reviews on it, it seems u need to use the primer before applying. This is the main reason y I bought that kit, I have medium skin tone, & I couldn't seem to make it work for me,(maybe got too dark), I am going to give it another try & apply it correctly, I'm hoping it will be amazing like the other products that came in that kit. Will check back & give better rating if it works for me. Thank u for making quality, natural products!! :0)

I absolutely LOVE this. First product ever to completely cover my dark under eye circles.

Shade wise fair-light is a hair darker than my skin tone (I'm extremely pale), but is it workable.

Will definitely repurchase but would like to have the option to purchase without the concealer brush.

It works good... but u need to play with it and blend it. Don't think once u put it on its going to look great. I'm 26 when I first put it on it made my eyes look 40 but once u play with it and blend it it works good. It made my eyes feel very soft. I liked it.

I have horrible dark circles. This product does an ok job of covering them...frankly, I don't think I'll ever get them covered. It brightens up the area so it doesn't look so shadowy. At first it appears that it'll be too thick on the under eye area, but it blends out nicely and doesn't crease. It also looks good over dark spots or blemishes elsewhere on the face. It applies a little lighter than it looks in the pot, which is great because I'm very fair ( I bought fair-light). If there were a lighter shade, however, I would get that instead. You get a lot of product in the pot, so I think it'll last a while. It's a great value since you get a long-lasting product and a very nice brush. Usually I don't use brushes that come with products because they are almost always sub-par, but Tarte always includes a quality tool.

I have allergies and very fair skin, so I usually have undereye circles so dark it looks like I got punched. This is the first concealer that I've found that actually covers my dark circles, but it's not cakey and obvious that I'm trying to cover something up. I haven't been using it long enough to notice a change in my puffiness, but at this point that would just be a bonus since I'm happy with the coverage aspect of this product.

I'm 56 and this concealer is the best I've found in the past decade. As an older woman the skin around my eye area is delicate besides having dark circles and some puffiness. The product reduces puffiness within 15 minutes and the dark circles are covered for over 10 hours with no update. What a relief to not only cover dark circles but also see an improvement in skin tone over time. I've been using it for about 4 months now.

This is terrific. It covers my dark circles and brightens the purple looking lash line that I have. smooth, creamy and stays in place. The little brush is great for getting it where I want it. I have pale skin and I use the lightest shade. I worry about shades not matching as sometimes even the lightest shades look dark on me. This matches perfectly.

I love the formula! its is very moisturizing & doesnt crease as easily as other brands I've tried. The thing is they definitely need more shades. I purchase the med dark & it has a very red undertone.. I'm more golden & a peach corrector would have worked better. :(.. I will be on the look out for an additions. I like the fact the concealer is nature based.

This is by far one of the best concealers I have used. It is a little pricier compared to most concealers, but a little goes a long way, so the price is completely worth it. It covers my dark circles under the eyes, and I also use a little around my lips. I love this product!

AMAZING! It is hard to find the words to express how great the dark circle defense is as a concealer. Some concealers settle in the fine lines, some don't cover at all.BUT Tarte Circle Defense has them all beat. It goes on smooth. as a great primer and life extender for my shadows. Do not let this one get away even if you have found that dark circle concealers rarely work in the past, this is definitely one will not let you down. Do not pass it up! I love this concealer so much I ordered two more so I don't ever run out.

I really love Tarte products and got my first intro thru QVC, however, I wish Maureen would make more colors. I need a definite medium color and the light one is too light and I am too afraid that the darker one might be too dark. I don't want to have to buy the darker one and then start mixing, so I sincerely hope that Tarte comes out with more shades (similar to what most products do). Two shades don't work on everyone's skin tones. The consistency is great and love the brush with it to get up to the lash lines. I hope that these reviews get read. Then I think you will see this as a five star for almost everyone once more shades are offered.

I've had dark circles forever and was a little hesitant to stray from my old concealor. At first I was not that impressed, I thought it was sticky and heavy and hard to blend. I finally learned how to apply it easiest. I apply it right after I put on my under eye cream or makeup primer and it blends so easily and covers flawlessly! It's like it puts up a wall of color to hide the dark circles. And it lasts a while. I am definatly making the switch to the Tarte brand. Such better quality ingredients for the same price of talc-y, paraben-filled, animal tested products!

Great concealer. Does not dry out on my skin, or emphasize my just-starting-to-show fine lines under my eyes. Love that it comes with a brush that I also use to apply shadow. Also, product stays moist in the packaging it comes in. It does not dry out. I have sensitive skin around my eyes and this is just wonderful. I've been using this product for about six months now.

I was actually hesitant to purchase this product due to the price for 2 weeks but then decided to just go for it....and I'm glad I did!! It does a PERFECT job!!! I instantly threw away my old concealer and have been using this since. It gives the right amount of coverage and you don't even have to use much of the product! I'm excited that it came with a brush, I'm kinda funny about applying make up with my fingers and would prefer brushes or sponges, plus I am not a huge fan of those that has the brush connected to the product so this one works. My hunt for the perfect concealer is now over! Thank you Tarte!

Great concealer, covers the dark circles under my eyes and stays put until I remove it at night. I have very fair skin and was concerned the light-to-medium coverage would be too dark, but it's great when applied lightly. Although I do hope some lighter shades will be offered soon.

My holy grail product. I have always had dark circles, but no more! This is a product that does exactly what it say it will do. It doesn't settle into the fine lines under your eyes. The best thing about this product for me though, is that when I remove it at night my eyes look better than they did in the morning when I applied my makeup.

Love the Tarte Circle Defense! It conceals the darkness and is an overall great concealer for me. I would aboslutely purchase this product again as well as recommend this to family and friends. It is worth the cost of the product as it is so nice and easy to apply. You might have to touch up or re apply later on in the day but that is A okay with me since my eyes look so much brighter with this product. Best of all it is cruelty free!

WOW, I absolutely love this concealer. I purchased the medium-to-deep for my olive skin color. I thought it would be a bit dark or off but it actually looks too perfect. It has brighten my eyes and looks as if I am not wearing any concealer. It does occasionally crease so make sure you use it lightly---a little goes a long way. I think it is a bit pricey compare to most concealers, however, you definitly get what you pay for! So worth it!

I will never buy any other concealer except this one!

This is a great product, but I've found it doesn't work as good as the 4-in-1. I think if you combine the 2, it would be an absolute GREAT product. Start with this one, then complete with just a dab of the 4-in-1 and you've got the perfect eye concealer that makes your eyes look amazing. Will definitely have to try that this week. Great products from great ingredients.!

As time progresses, the area I used to use with this product has become smaller and smaller as it truly heals as well as conceals. I have found a little on my eyelids really acts as a great primer and life extender for my shadows. Do not let this one get away even if you have found that dark circle concealers rarely work in the past, this is definitely one will not let you down. Do not pass it up!

I have been searching for the perfect concealer. I have a slight bit of darkness under my eyes and most concealers are heavy and pull on the delicate eye area. Some settle in the fine lines. Some don't cover at all. Tarte Circle Defense has them all beat. It goes on smooth (no tugging on skin), does not settle in fine lines, covers very well, and has no parabens! Finding a concealer without parabens is no easy task. I've been using it about a month and I noticed the darkness under my eyes is diminishing. I love this concealer so much I ordered two more so I don't ever run out.
