There's actually a trick to proper concealer application so you're not left looking like a raccoon. Always choose a concealer that's a shade lighter than your foundation. Also consider the time of year -- if you tan naturally you'll likely need a different shade of concealer in summer months than you do in winter. Be careful not to choose a shade that's too light for your skin in an effort to cover up undereye circles.
To apply concealer, dot under the eyes, along the nose and on dark spots and then "tap" it into the skin with the pad of a finger. (Some beauty editors swear on fingers best used for applying concealer but I say a finger pad is a finger pad and it really doesn't matter). Apply in sheer layers and then build up. The secret it to blend concealer in so it looks natural, not obvious.
