14 Heavy-Duty Concealers That Cover Up Anything

When you’re faced with a blemish that you don’t exactly want to showcase, concealer can be your best friend. But not every type of concealer out there can live up to the task of totally camouflaging whatever it is that you’re trying to hide. When dark circles, discoloration, broken capillaries, redness or breakouts have you reaching for makeup, consider these 15 super heavy-duty formulas that will leave your skin looking picture-perfect.

Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing Cakeless Full Coverage Waterproof Liquid Concealer ($24)

As if the name alone doesn’t say it all, this creamy, high-coverage concealer checks all of the boxes: It covers everything, is sweat-resistant, doesn’t catch in fine lines and comes in 26 second-skin shades.

NARS Soft Matte Complete Concealer ($30)

This creamy, peptide-loaded formula works double time to blur the most stubborn of skin imperfections. Even though it feels light on your skin and looks totally natural, it promises not to do a disappearing act midday.

Tarte Shape Tape Full Coverage Concealer ($30)

We know that this vegan concealer works wonders at contouring (hence its name), but we couldn’t get over how well it covered up our under-eye circles, making them literally disappear. Thick enough that it doesn’t budge but creamy enough so that it seamlessly blends into skin, this concealer is a must-have, especially after those late nights.

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer ($28)

This full-coverage, matte concealer lasts up to 15 hours and can make the darkest of under-eye circles and spots seem as if they don’t exist.

Maybelline New York Instant Age Rewind Dark Circles Treatment Concealer ($11)

Even though this concealer was created to erase dark circles—it totally does—we got wind of the correcting powers of this makeup product when we saw dozens of beauty vloggers use it across their faces to hide just about anything that needs to be concealed. The sponge tip applicator is a major plus, too!

Clé de Peau Beauté Concealer ($75)

A celebrity favorite, this concealing stick—it now boasts SPF 27—does a solid job at evening out uneven and imperfect skin. Simply apply it to your skin and blend it out with a brush. 

12 / 14

KVD Beauty Lock-It Concealer Crème ($27)

You have to trust that a makeup line from a famed tattoo artist is going to be one of the most pigmented, full-coverage and water-resistant formulas out there. It’s formulated to cover everything from pimples to tattoos so that no one (but you) really knows what’s under your makeup. 

13 / 14

Make Up For Ever Velvet Matte Skin Concealer ($29)

Heavy duty yet lightweight on the skin, this blends-right-in, multi-use concealer comes in 22 shades and can be used for everything from contouring to concealing, making it a makeup-bag mainstay. Bonus: It claims to lock in place for up to 24 hours.

14 / 14

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye ($29)

Even though this anti-aging concealer was originally designed to cover up the most serious of under-eye circles and bags, its covers-it-all abilities makes this one of the best concealers out there.
