Several on- set make up artists have recommended using orange to counter the dark under and around my eye area. I'm light/medium in skin tone but have genetically darker skin around my eyes. This brand as well as one drug store brand make an orange concealer.
This is not intended to brighten your eye, it's meant to counter or cancel the dark color. You will still need to use your favorite concealer but this will give your concealer a better base to work with.
Worked well for me but there is a bit of a learning curve with applying this and regular concealer. Too much and you've painted your eye bags orange. To little and you won't get any results. Worth a trip to Nordies to have the Laura Mercier counter show you how it's done.

This product was recommended to me by a Nordstrom sales rep and I also heard that Oprah recommends it too so I bought it because I have bags under my eye. I am black and this is a great concealer for me. I can't live without it.

I have olive skin and dark circles under my eyes all the time. I tried this thinking it wud be awesome and get rid of them almost completely, but I was wrong. I tried the yellow/orange but in real life it looks like the picture of the pink one. I put it on and it was orange and i tried rubbing it in but it didn't work and I still saw some orange. It might help if you use this with something else, but this was not for me. I will be returning.
