One of more than 4,900 Sephora reviewers says, "It blends well into the skin, does not crease, and is still fully intact after at least 12 hours of regular wear.

Our Beauty Lab says it's a "magic wand" for evening your skin tone, and while the "touch of peachiness [does] well to cancel darkness under eyes," our testers say you can use the do-it-all formula for any discoloration on the face, from dark spots to the undereye area.

Board-certified dermatologist Iris Rubin, MD, says "sensitive skin is actually not a clinical diagnosis, though most people think of it as skin that is easily irritated. Jart contains its Tiger Grass complex to help calm sensitive skin, reduce redness, and soothe irritation, and some (like this cream) are also green to help instantly neutralize the appearance of redness.

Which is especially bad news, considering we're still in the midst of a global respiratory pandemic — and, as a Harvard T. Concealers come in a myriad consistencies, forms and finishes, from liquid to cream to stick and beyond. Until then, Peaslee suggests brands place a "PFAS-free" designation on their labels — and while that's yet to come, brands like It Cosmetics have already taken steps to remove PFAS from popular products (look for ingredients "perfluorohexane," "perfluorodecalin," and "pentafluoropropane" to know if you have the old formulas). To help you make a considered choice, we’ve been hard at work testing out the best concealers for sensitive skin in our NYC lab. Developed with dermatologists for acne-prone skin, Neutrogena ® Clear Coverage Concealer offers lightweight, color correcting coverage that doesn’t make your acne worse.This one has that green pigment to neutralize skin redness plus niacinamide to help treat some potential causes of redness like acne and eczema, is suitable for acne-prone skin, and provides oil-free, buildable, lightweight coverage. This highly pigmented concealer was a fave among Beauty Lab's testers for its formula and wide shade range.

We tried the bisque shade and think the darker shades could also be used to create a bronzing effect. We also like the sponge applicator that delivers a solid medium coverage, which you could also build up if needed. Red and green are opposite in the color wheel, so it just makes sense for green to neutralize redness on the skin.Peaslee says if it has "remarkable properties of being long-lasting or waterproof, those are the ones that most likely contain PFAS. If you have very dark circles, you may need two layers as we did, and we’d recommend starting with a hydrating eye cream to avoid caking. Which brings us to a point that every expert I spoke with highlighted: Wherever possible, we should be cutting out these "forever chemicals," and as convenient as it is to not have to reapply lipstick or long-lasting foundation, PFAS aren't essential in cosmetics — and certainly not worth the risk.
