Whether the goal is to blur fine lines, improve skin texture, disguise the appearance of dark circles or simply create the illusion of a full eight hours sleep, finding the right concealer gets a little more difficult if you’re also dealing with dry under-eye skin. The area already moves a lot, so folks with dry skin (or mature skin, in perimenopause, menopause or post-menopause) may experience looser, crepey and more delicate texture around the eyes that exacerbates the look of wrinkles and can cause concealer to patch, clump and crease. Luckily, hydrating concealers exist—if you know where to look. With so many options—all with different ingredients, textures, coverage types and finishes—we combed through shoppers’ fervent reviews on which formulas really keep dry under-eyes hydrated and smooth while also brightening and concealing redness and dark circles.

“I am in love with this concealer!! I have very dry under eyes and no matter how much prep I did everything was still dry and flakey. But that completely changed after this concealer!! It’s so lightweight and buildable, I applied multiple layers and it didn’t get cakey! I like blending this with my figure so I can get the most coverage, it’s not full coverage but I prefer lighter coverage anyways. Plus, it’s so brightening! I see a noticeable difference when I use this, it’s my new go-to!”

6 / 10

Westman Atelier Vital Skincare Brightening Concealer ($48)

Celebrity-favorite brand Westman Atelier (count Jessica Biel and Ali Larter as fans) recently launched this creamy concealer with ingredients that’ll improve your skin while you wear it—namely hyaluronic acid, caffeine, licorice root and peptides. The formula is on the thicker side, so a few dots and you’re good to go.

7 / 10

Tarte Creaseless Creamy Concealer ($30)

A waterproof, full coverage, 12-hour crease-proof, 24-hour hydration concealer with skin-smoothing niacinamide and bakuchiol, a plant-based retinol alternative that works overtime to lessen the appearance of wrinkles—need I say more?

“This concealer is absolutely 5 stars for me! The creamy formula provides excellent coverage without needing to use much at all, and it lasts all day long. At 52, I have fine lines around my eyes, but this concealer works like magic—it blurs those lines beautifully without settling or creasing. The finish is smooth and natural, leaving my skin looking flawless. It’s rare to find a product that performs this well, especially on mature skin, and I’m beyond impressed.”

8 / 10

RMS Beauty UnCoverup Concealer ($39)

With a featherlight and buildable texture, the RMS UnCoverup feels like a second skin. But don’t let that fool you—the brand’s hero product is a powerful multitasker that color corrects and conceals “with pigment rather than weight,” says the brand.

Laura Mercier Real Flawless Weightless Perfecting Serum Concealer ($33)

Laura Mercier’s Serum Concealer boasts 85 percent skin-care ingredients and 97 percent of participants in a clinical study said their skin felt hydrated when using it, according to the brand. That ingredient list includes a Hydro-Lipid Matrix, which delivers immediate and time-released hydration throughout the day.

Key Ingredients

Hydro-Lipid Matrix, Paracress Extract, Green Tea and Cacao Extract

Coverage and Finish

Promising Review

“I think I can say that this is probably the BEST concealer I’ve ever used. I’m almost 40, I have dark purple/blue genetic under eye circles and this is ONLY thing that works! I have sensitive skin prone to milia and dryness. The best part is, this concealer is so thin in consistency (but super pigmented!) it looks like skin. I use shade 2C1 as a corrector/concealer. It’s the perfect peach color. It’s buildable, so if you need more, wait a seconds and apply more! Keep in mind a little goes a LONG WAY. I hope this NEVER gets discontinued.”

10 / 10

CHANEL Sublimage Le Correcteur Yeux ($105)

We love CHANEL makeup, so it’s no surprise its illuminating, ultra-hydrating concealer makes our list. With antioxidants to protect the fragile eye area from oxidative stress and a buildable, melts-into-skin texture, it instantly revives the under-eye area with light and all-day comfort.

Promising Review

“This concealer is everything that people have said: it covers without looking cakey, it doesn’t crease, it is smooth, and a little goes a very long way. It is the first concealer I’ve ever liked, and I’ve tried a lot of them. This little jar will last for a very long time, and, like most Chanel products, is both luxurious and effective.”
