    Good Points: Contains an eye serum in the formula which physically decreases puffiness and dark circles as well as concealing them. Is also fantastic on older, crepey skins, as it doesn't cake or gather.


    Bad Points: It is up in the pricier end of the spectrum, and can turn some deeper South Asian skins grey.


    General comments: I have used every under eye concealer conceivable to man. Having Welsh, Arabic, and Romany Gypsy in my ancestry, it has left me blessed with the most beautiful, flawless, olive-golden skin, but unfortunately, leaves me with the curse of having very dark under eye circles, which often leaves me looking like some dodgy terrorist sort. I started working for Guerlain, and up until that point, hadn't used any of their products (being an avid fan of MAC, and Dior) but was intrigued by their under eye concealer, as it seemed pretty much the life blood of the company.

    Upon application, I found it glided on with the greatest of ease, gave a beautiful coverage which worked in synergy with my skin tone, instead of just concealing it, and felt comfortable and light to wear. I have used it on make ups on various people and found it could be applied to even the most mature of skins, and it still refused to cake or crease.

    The eye serum in the formula is a god send, and makes you look bright and alive. I've even recently seen friends from school who say I look fantastic and healthy.

    This product won Harpers Bazaar 50 best buys when it came to under eye concealers, and comes in three beautiful shades...rose, clear beige, and deep beige, so suits everyone from very pale to olive or dark skins. I have noticed though that it doesn't work on some South Asian skins, often turning the under eye grey, so for those people, I would recommend you try in store with a consultant before you buy.

    The only slight draw back is the price, but in comparison to products such as YSL's Touche Eclat, it works out to being only a little bit more for a far superior product, so if you can afford Touch Eclat prices, I would recommend invest a couple of pounds more and go for Guerlain's Precious Light, by far.
