Catrice Under Eye Brightener, Dark Circles Concealer (030 Golden Toffee)

A 40+ year old beauty influencer recommended this color corrector as a great drugstore option that is hydrating and kind to fine lines. Drugstore brands tend not to have my shade in products like this - I'm in the NW45 range if you know your MAC foundation, a bit lighter around my eyes. I use the peach lustre color correcting pen from MAC, which is great for richly melanated skin tones, or people with very dark circles. But the skin around my eyes is a bit dryer now that I'm 60, so I went looking for something a bit more hydrating than the pen. I tried this in the darkest shade Golden Toffee - and I love it! Golden Toffee is a wonderful peachy orangey caramel that looks totally natural on me without concealer or foundation. And it covers my dark circles completely even though it's a light to medium coverage. Thank god for color correctors! They really are a godsend. I used to use the thickest fullest coverage concealers I could find. Thank goodness formulas have changed nowadays, full coverage is not kind to fine lines :) This lightweight formula gives a lightly dewy finish, slightly oily feel, but doesn't leave my under eyes looking greasy or oily or heavy or cakey. I dab with my ring finger onto the back of my hand for the right amount, and then I press directly on the dark circle areas that need coverage. I don't blend it all around. Not too much or too little. Then I blend the edges with a soft brush so it's smooth. It doesn't make my fine lines look worse, and if I'm in a rush, I can get away with just dabbing this on after I mist my face with a hydrating toner. It's that dewy. (Eye cream is always better though.) I work from home and have very dark circles, which look even worse on a zoom. I really don't love wearing makeup anymore. So when I'm on a zoom meeting, I use this, a bit of bronzer on cheeks and eyes and a bit of lip gloss and I look awake and fresh and healthy. Glad I gave this a try, it will stay in my collection. Pls keep it forever :)

Omg this is literally my holy Grail. Texture is so nicee and it doesn't end up looking cakey on me. It give good coverage while moisturizing my skin and brightening my under eyes and overall for the price quality is awsome

Does brighten. Coverage and product is very thin. I usually add a little concealer to it. It does separate a bit. But good for the price. Also good art masking redness or dark arks from pimples underneath foundation or concealer.

Nice coverage but it doesn’t last! I mix the dark and light cocoa color to get a good match but it’s too orangey to match my skin tone so I use it sparingly or if it’s the only thing nearby. Not a bad product just meh…

This stuff is AMAZING!!! The color match is perfect. Applies easily, just dab it on with your ring finger. Start with a small amount and build to the desired coverage. No creasing and doesn't settle in to fine lines under eyes. I put it on my lids as well. Brightens eyes. I used a little setting powder to lock it in place. I'm definitely ordering this again.

This is the third bottle I have purchased on this product and I am very pleased with that. It helps a lot with under eye dark circles. It is definitely non-greasy and brightening.

I really didn’t like this product, it felt heavy. To thick and hard to blend.

Works well to conceal dark spots, applies eady

Seems to work!

Love it
