If like us you stay up late into the night fantasising about snogging the faces off of members of your favourite boybands then you may find that in the morning your tired eyes need a little pick me up. But sometimes we find that concealers can either be too heavy on our delicate peepers, or don't give enough coverage at all. So we thought that we'd give Dirty Works' 'Bye Bye Dark Circles' concealer a little go seeing as you know, it basically says what we needed to hear in the title.
How much: RRP £4.99 from Sainsbury's.
They say: Instantly camouflage those DARK CIRCLES (their capitals not ours, must be getting serious) and imperfections with our lightweight, fragrance free concealer which contains soothing Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to help moisturise and provide antioxidant protection. Gently dab (do not rub) cream under the eye area to help conceal dark circles.
We say: We've struggled in the past to find concealers that don't end up sitting too heavily on our skin, and with Dirty Works advising us to dab the product underneath our eyes it left us wondering if we'd have the same problem. But the combination of Aloe and Vitamin E mean that this concealer stays light and dewy and doesn't dry out, and dabbing it on means that you don't end up rubbing some of the coverage away. WHO KNEW?
Dirty Works have cleverly given you only two shades, which are really easy to blend together to create the perfect tone for your skin colour. It's fragrance free as well so we felt good about using it on our sensitive skin. The only downside was that by the end of the day the coverage had worn off slightly, but the small size of the pot means that you can throw it in your handbag and apply on the go. Now we can stare at posters of Ryan Gosling until the early hours without a care in the world. Hurrah!
We were really impressed with how well this concealer works despite being such a bargain, but what do you beautifiers think - will you be popping it in your shopping trolley?
Dirty Works Bye-bye dark circles concealer
I have an extreme case of dark circles and have fallen in love with this product. It is not a heavy concealer, it is more a light consistency with great coverage. The lightness of this product makes it perfect to use under my eyes, just perfect for my delicate yet evil under eye area.
It has a little bit of oiliness to it but that has not been a problem for me at all.
There are two shades in the little cube and they work really well on my fair skin. They also blend well and does not cause any caking when I apply my foundation and powder.
Just a lovely product I will repurchase again.
Love love love

I have recently discovered the Dirty Works brands at the Clicks store . Since I wear glasses majority of the time , over the years I have dark under eye circles . Most of the concealers that I have tried leaving a cakey residue that makes me have raccoon eyes . Dirty Works dark circles is easy to apply , blends in immediately after application , comes in the pink and dark beige concealer color . That one can mix together to get the perfect coverage . I don't apply foundation or powder over the concealer for a natural finish as for me that is not needed as I get a natural coverage .
