help -- those good with makeup please come in!
Ever since having a baby ive had the WORST under eye circles. Not bags, just darkness. I use a concealor that is 1 shade lighter than my norm and then my usual foundation, and powder. They still look terrible.
Any advice or product recommendations?
Im super fair skinned -- between a light, and med light.
Thanks!!!

Try a very peachy concealer or if you are really adventurous, the red lipstick concealer trick (youtube it)
But Benefit Erase Paste and/or Boiing concealers are great. People also rave about the Bobbi Brown one too.
Reviews on some drugstore concealers

Yes-go darker/orangier.
I have been using Estee Lauder Double Wear in Warm Light/Medium, but I wear double Wear light foundation in shade 1.
Erase Paste is good too (comes in 3 shades), but I prefer liquid concealers in general.
Also--try these tips

This is what I use. I've struggled with very severe undereye circles for my entire life (they run in my family) and I've tried everything. I use the Laura Mercier combined with a highlighter for under my eyes and it makes a huge difference.

Its actually a concealer that I use in a very light shade as a highlighter. If you use it on the top of your cheek bones and blend it under the eye as well it works well to conceal and brighten.
I use this one from Josie Maren
