Does anyone else get more product info from Amanda's declutters than most influencers' entire reviews?

Just to add a bit of a dissenting opinion for anyone who may find it helpful: I also have hollow under eyes, and I find the NYX Bare With Me concealer to work just as well as the Kosas Revealer! I actually much prefer the NYX because it’s much more affordable (obviously) and because it doesn’t go bad quickly like the Kosas.

I'm a light medium asian skin tone so for me it's actual dark circles due to genetics rather than hollowness, so I am always looking for super high coverage camouflage level concealers. The NARS soft matte, ABH magic concealer, Pat Mcgrath and Huda Faux filter are the concealers so far that have covered my dark circles really well, especially if I use a colour corrector. I want to try the new Urban decay one next

I’m Indian and our skin tones don’t even match but I live for these videos! So well explained and executed, I learn so much . Thank you

It's a little spooky how this video came out JUST as I was thinking about it. You're my #1 reference for me for concealers. So excited!

So much detail. You work so hard to provide such information while always making sure that a lot of these products may be getting decluttered because they don’t work for YOU but they may be good for others and you detail why.

Another girl with hollow and dark under eyes here 🙋‍♀️ the smashbox corrector + either the nars pot concealer or the too faced born this way multiuse concealer have been by go to combos. Makes a big difference! Also a little bit of filler doesn’t hurt 😅

I think it was one of your videos that turned me on to Glossier Stretch and it is my favorite. The only one that doesn't look cakey, yet still covers and lightens and reflects, plus it's easy to apply!

I really appreciate the time and dedication to details that you provide in your videos! I trust your honest opinions and shop based off of them ❤ thank you for all you do.

That may have been me with the nyx bare w/me serum concealer! I absolutely love using a light layer of it as foundation! I don't love it as an undereye concealer tbh because at 46 I find myself with sudden dark circles & some hollowness starting (I assume due to fat loss etc due to age) & so I fully fully appreciate these vids from you Amanda. Thank you so much. 💜

I'm glad to see the Undone concealer popping up. I discovered it in the spring of 2018, and it's taken this long for me to start hearing people mention it. At the same time, I purchased their blush (in pink) which is also a cream (very ahead of its time), and I've been wearing and enjoying both for the past five years.

I like the long form de-clutter video and love your honesty when talking about the products

Your complexion product reviews are ALWAYS helpful. As your skin twin, with hooded hollow eyes, I LIVE for your reviews! Absolutely love you Amanda! ❤

I just used the Becca corrector for inner corner highlight like you mentioned and I'm amazed! What a revelation!

I've been waiting and hoping for updated concealer videos from you, so this is great and informational! Can you please do an updated concealer routine/application video? That would be amazing and super helpful!

As I've gotten older my preferences for concealer have changed a lot so I'm super excited for this video! Declutters are so soothing as well haha kinda like ASMR for me. Thank you for the amazing content as always!

WARNING: THIS COMMENT WILL BE LONG 😊 For those with mild under eye darkness, it might be good to use a light-reflective formula that's a shade lighter than your skin to brighten up the area, but for those dealing with a very obvious tear trough or that hollowness under the eyes, a light reflecting formula will only emphasize the hollowness more and therefore make it look darker. It’s common sense, really. Remember, light and shade. And let’s be real, an overly light or bright undereye is so obvious and looks so unnatural. Definitely not a good look in real life. Maybe on camera, with the help of filters and camera tricks, but not in real life. Because we can see, we can definitely see. Unfortunately, I’m one of those unlucky ones that have the very deep tear troughs, very thin under eye skin that make my purple veins very visible AND dry undereye skin. Great! So.. In as much as no one wants dry crusty looking undereyes, I still haven’t found an emolient concealer that does the trick. For hollowness, matte works best in reducing that shading caused by the ridges under the eyes. As I’m not fond of "setting", “baking” or even patting powder over my concealer, as I find it always ends up caking to some degree, I use the slightest powder by using a duo-fibre brush over it just to get rid of the shine. If your problem is dry undereye and that’s why you’re looking for an “emollient” or “hydrating” (I find influencers over-using this term funny because there is no such thing in makeup unless it’s has skincare or it’s dewy or glossy. Maybe using “non-drying” is better?), try upping your skincare game instead. Spending more on skincare than on the never ending search for the perfect concealer is far beneficial now and in the long run. Personally, I have given up on the search. I now concentrate more on skincare which helped heaps in my undereye problem. I figured, if I can’t get rid of it (as I’m not planning on having fillers or whatnot), I might as well work on having good skin to work on. This way, I use less product and cakeiness/crepeiness is significantly reduced. I don’t put a lot under the concealer though. I do my skincare at night or if I’m super “dry” under the eyes, I do it way before makeup and remove most of it before my undereye routine. For a heavy duty, high coverage concealer, I just use my trusty ol’ Tarte Shape Tape -because medium coverage just won’t cut it for me. And, yes, I get no dryness! I heard the Huda Beauty FauxFilter Concealer is just as good, if not better, so I might try that when I use up my TSTs. Oh, and the Becca Eye Brightening Corrector works for me, too! It doesn’t do much help in the actual darkness caused by my veins, but I find that its texture helps in reducing dryness that the matte concealer may cause occasionally for me. It does not add shine or make the shine come though the concealer too much which I prefer. Any shine caused by sweat, humidity or whatnot may again be dusted off ever so sllghtly with the duo-fibre brush and tiny amount of powder. Happy Concealing! 💕

This video was sooooooo informative!!! I also really like how calm and relaxing it was! Thank you so much for putting this together. I have extremely dry skin and it’s very hard to find any type of makeup that works on my skin- so this was super helpful. I’m currently using the kosas (best results I’ve had yet), here’s to hoping mine doesn’t smell weird soon. Looking forward to watching the hollow-eye routine, I definitely need those tips🫶

You taught me how to deal with my hollow eyes. I never understood hollowness until I found your channel.

I have watched your channel before, but not seeing you, only your hands, makes me pay attention to your voice more. And what do you know! What a lovely, calming voice! This was a very relaxing video.

fantastic video as always amanda! you're the one that introduced me to the kosas concealer and it truly is a game changer!! i also have deep-set eyes and since i am very pale i tend to look tired and sleep deprived lol.. i've tried dozens of concealers over the years and none of them could help with the creasing, hollowness, and dark circles the way this product from kosas can. thank you for taking the time to make fantastic content and providing us with great makeup recommendations!!❤️

My favorite concealer of all time is Maybelline fit me! Recently I have been loving the NYX bare with me. For more full coverage I love the hourglass vanish airbrush concealer.

I definitely have the same hollowness, especially as I age. This video really helped, thanks Amanda. One thing I reach for all of the time is the Tula rose glow & get it eye balm. It just really adds a great layer of moisture and seems to really eliminate the crepeyness and I generally don't even reach for concealer after I use it.

I am going through it with concealers and this video is so helpful! I also have dark under eye circles so it helps to know your experiences with all of these.

Most of the concealers you get along with are the ones I prefer as well. Also have hollows and am using a retinoid (Altreno). I love Kosas for under the eyes (just hate how it starts to stink after awhile) + Luminous Silk for spots. Other concealers I love and use: Shiseido Synchro Skin Correcting Gel Stick (for acne), Shape Tape (fresh acne spots, not dry spots, applied with small brush and patted in with fingertip, Lisa Eldridge-style). I also use the Ben Nye corrector palette to press orangey-peach shades under my eyes with my fingers to correct some of the blueness/purple, then apply concealer ontop. The Ben Nye is just dry enough that it stays in place under a concealer like Kosas. The Dior Forever also works well under my eyes, assuming they aren't a bit dry. Someone else in the comments mentioned stepping up skincare if you have dry undereyes, but for me, it's just been a product of getting older. I think the emollient concealers also just sit under the eyes a bit like a heavy, pleasant cream, keeping it looking fresh and bright. One tip for undereyes that I learned from a dermatologist: If you're undereye is really dry, apply a thick layer of moisturizer to it and then take some plastic wrap you've cut into rectangles, and press it on. Keep it on throughout the evening and it'll help really nourish that region.

I’m running out low on my kaja concealer the timing of your video is so perfect to me !

This video is so amazingly helpful, I can't wait for the next concealer related video especially because I have very deep set hollow eyes with very dark purple/brown circles and it is hard to find content specifically for hollow eyes

Hello from Romania! Your videos are very hepful! You are doing a great job helping us buy the right products.

Can’t wait for the video on concealing under eye hollowness 🤩 I have been struggling with that for so long

I have learned a lot from your content. I have hollows as well. I couldn't figure that situation out for the longest time and have tried several concealers. I see why you love the Kosas concealer. It's my only concealer I use now. Thank you for sharing your expertise Amanda! Love you ❤🎉

The NYX concealer is my foundation most days. I use it like I use the salt sneaky balm. It’s great that way!

Loving this little series! Very informative! Please, pretty please do powders next!!!

Love your long form videos - I appreciate all the comparisons.

One concealer that is not in this video but I recommend for those who have very thin skin on the undereye area and also need good coverage is from Kiko, Dark Circles Full Coverage Concealer. It’s hydrating enough not to emphasize fine lines and skin texture but it also lasts and covers dark or blue/violet/green undereyes for many hours.

It really is essential what your own under eye issues when you consider which ones might help. Might, because as I can see from this video, lots of promising concealers don’t deliver. A dominant problem I have is significant bags. I have almost come to peace with that, but I find these detailed analyses very helpful for other issues I also face. It is always a good idea to let go of the ones that don’t cut it.

I absolutely love the nyx bare with me concealer! I have dry skin and it has been the only drugstore* concealer that doesn't flake on me! 💜

I am 44 and have fair skin. I tried the Bobbi Brown skin full cover concealer a few months ago and have used nothing else since. I do have dark circles and some days I use the Charlotte Tilbury color corrector underneath and it layers beautifully. It took me a long time to find a concealer I feel happy about.

I’m so glad you had good things to say about the elf flawless brightening! It’s one if my faves! ❤️

Very helpful been looking for a concealer for under eye for a looong time with no success. You have given me a lot of ideas for my super dry under eyes. Thank you!

These declutters have been my favourite distraction! 😍

Shout out to you for analizing all of these. Thanks❤

Thank you, such an essential video for us under eye concealer addicts! It was your videos that made me realise I have hollow under eyes as well as dark circles. My two favourite concealers are Vieve Modern Radiance Concealer and Kosas Revealer Concealer. ELF Hydrating Camo Concealer is great, as is No7 Lift & Luminate Serum Concealer.

As I have dry skin and powder never looks good on my skin. Please do this series on powder. It could be loose or pressed powder. Your opinion is ❤

Amanda I also have hollow dark undereyes. The kosas was not full enough coverage for me because I can only apply one layer before looking cakey. But you have to try the Huda beauty Matte concealer, it’s my new favorite.

it’s strange but the rare beauty brightener is actually one of my favorite new discoveries as someone who hates how most concealers look on my extremely dry under eyes. The brightener is great for daily no-makeup makeup look

Favourite kind of declutter - lots of info about why it does/doesn't work for you and whom it might suit.

I also have hollows under my eyes and still haven't found my perfect concealer. I can't wait for your next concealer video!

I have hollowness and while the undertones of Kosas don't work for me, the Armani luminous silk concealer is fantastic! And 5.5 is an amazing shade match! And Amanda, I'm glad to hear this was a favorite of yours!

This is criminally underrated I really needed this video ❤️✨🥰

I stumbled across your channel today on this video, and binge watched a lot more, it has been awhile since I liked any beauty gurus on KZfaq. Subscribed immediately and looks forward to more of your content. Since I resided in Asia, I always wondered how the known kbeauty brands compared to elf, Fenty, Charlotte Tilbury and other western brands. All of your decluttering videos are so easy to watch, and I wanted to leave a comment as a note of appreciation ❤ Truly enjoy this series, if anything I would love to see you ranking all of your collections at the end of videos!

This was INCREDIBLY helpful!!!

❤❤You are definitely one of my favorite beauty content creators. I have found several of my holy grail beauty products from your recommendations. The Kosas foundation is the best I have ever used, and I have tried everything from Chanel to drugstore brands.

I didnt think the armani luminous concealer was even close to the saie or kosas. Saie looked greasy on me and kosas would dry out my undereyes (even though I have oily skin) but the armani is my favorite concealer ever. I use it all the time and I had way better luck with that one than the others.

Love the maybelline rewind. I always go back to it! I too have darkness. Loving the NYX bare with me as well. I am going to try undone and glossier next! Very interesting about the rare beauty!

This is fascinating and such a great resource - thank you, Amanda!

Love how in depth this is, thank you! I’m on the hunt for a new concealer. I’ve used the Maybelline fit me for years and agree that the formula has changed and feels cheaper. Started using it when it was in a squeeze tube and much preferred the formula then. I can’t find a perfect shade match now either 😢 I wish they took the tube formula and put it in this packaging. If they had, it would be the only concealer I ever buy 😂

I am much older than you, but we both suffer from the hollows under the eyes. I did not have this problem when I was your age....but definitely developed it with age. The kosas concealer seems to be a favorite for all ages...good on kosas! I am a concealer junkie, and I really enjoyed this video. Tfs! 💜💜💜

Thank you for the work you put into this

Due to bad sleep I developed a dry, hollowed, tiered looking under eye area. I tried every possible high end product but what I really love is the 4 Euro product from Catrice.. they say it is a dupe for the Becca one. Greetings from Germany

Hi Amanda! I too have hollowness under my eyes. I also deal with blueness near the tear duct area too! I am quite self conscious of them, and have tried a countless number of concealers/blue coverups over many years. I found that Jones Road face pencils are very effective at both blueness reduction and flattening the appearance of hollowness. (Like you’d want to try another product probably). They are so effective for me, that I always have backups! If you are still in the market for something to try on the under eye hollowness, I think you’d be impressed. I use shade 11 for blueness coverage and it really neutralizes it very well! I too am extremely picky when it comes to concealers. There is also a really decent shade range as well! 👌🏾

I have hollow dark under eyes and I thought that an orange colour corrector would be perfect for me since I have brown skin - but I realised I'm on the paler side so a peachy toned colour corrector would be better so I'm going to try the elf ones! Always loved your videos!

Love the Kosas as well…and Beauty Pie’s Everyday Great Skin Concealer! It’s awesome.

I primarily use concealer to spot conceal so our needs are very different, but I took the plunge and tried the Cle de peau concealer. I have to report the hype is real 😭. That and the Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer are my favorites. I also have a medium cool olive skin tone so it's really hard to find colors that blend naturally, and these are it! I used to use the LA girl and Fenty concealers for years. I still like the fenty for correcting (using a pinker shade), and it sticks well to my skin. The Armani concealer is one I've wanted to try but when I swatched it in store it left a glitter residue... maybe the tester was contaminated... I should try other shades to see.

Can’t wait to see you video for hollow eyes. I have had bags since I was like 7 years old. Would love to be able to use the Sephora sale to purchase something that will help!

i have dark/hollow undereyes so u have noooo idea how much i needed this !!!

I think this is so interesting! Thanks for choosing my favorite topic. I came to a similar conclusion in the past few years, that my problem is hollowness and shadowing more so than pigmentation. I’m like you in that I probably buy concealer more than any other cosmetics item, but I’m probably 20 years older though and my top picks are some that weren’t your favorites, so I thought I would add that perspective as well. My favorites… For color correction: Charlotte Tilbury Magic Vanish Color Corrector Nanoblur Colour Corrector - Peach - this is a new favorite of mine. If I put this on first, some days I don’t even bother with concealer. I find it layers well with the rest of these products as well. Sisley Phyto Cernes Eclat, limited color range, but if this works for you, it’s spectacular. The price is also spectacular, but I’m going on 3 years on my first tub and it still works perfectly. Concealer: Clarins Instant Concealer, I never hear anyone talk about this one, and it’s probably the one I’d take to a desert island, with the caveat that it now says “new” on the website and I’m worried they have reformulated it. Lancôme Teint Idole All Over Concealer, this one really works for me, if I use a brush especially. Reckon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5-in-1, this is very similar to the Lancôme IMO and a solid drugstore buy NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, a little more full coverage Not technically concealer, but works for me as a light to medium one, Westman Atelier foundation stick Brightening: Revlon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5-in-1, both Universal Brighteners (pink and yellow) are great, the pink works for me, but turns my mother mauve under the eye. The yellow is a great fit for her though and I can use that one in a pinch as well, but i prefer the pink (enough to have bought 4 of them, just in case). It also can be used over top of other concealers for a touch up that doesn’t pile on the coverage, but just refreshes everything.

Recently subscribed to your channel and have been watching videos back to back! Love your content and how thorough you are. I really appreciate insight that is specific - because I also want my products to perform in a particular way. Would love if you could do an all natural - light coverage makeup product guide. Because I love your glowy dewy base with wet looking eyes vibe. It’s perfect! And I don’t like much coverage to all of my products (concealer, tint (if wearing any), blush, and bronzer. Thank you so much!

I was just placing an order, where I buy my first high end, more chique concealer... thanks for this timing, will see if I reconsider in the end of the video

Hey Amanda! I don’t have severe hollows, but I have deep set eyes, which also cause a shadow. I also have SUPER dry skin so it ends up we like the same things! ( but I’m also very olive so I unfortunately don’t have a shade match in kosas) If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly suggest the Ilamasqua concealer pens. Creamy, not too heavy, hydrating with a cooling tip that isn’t messy and makes sense. ❤

I love that chanel concealer -its my absolutely favorite from years

Your voice is so soothing to listen to, and I don’t know if there’s been a mic change or something but your last two videos have been border line asmr for me. Haha. But most of all, concealer is my crack!

I also use the nyx serum concealer as a foundation ! Love it !

I’m about to turn 48 and I’ve never really used concealer in the past but I’ve really been enjoying playing with my makeup a lot more for about a year or so now. I guess I’m just lucky that my under eyes have never really given me a problem, so I used to just use my foundation there. But lately I’ve started using concealer to brighten things up and I really like the way it looks. I’ve bought SO MANY different concealers this year and I think my favorite ones so far have been the Dior Forever Skin Correct, the Kosas and the Armani Luminous Silk. And I have a few correctors and I find that the Becca/Smashbox one is nice all by itself because the shade actually works as concealer for my skin tone! Thanks for all this information! Although I would have saved a lot of money if I had seen this video a year ago 😂

So informative! Thanks for your expertise!

I’ve commented this under some other comments so I figured I should make a main one here: Like many of you, I also have dry, hollow, dark under eyes. (Chilean genes yay!). As I’ve gotten older, it just gets worse. I also have pretty full cheeks so it accentuates my under eyes even more. I’ve tried probably hundreds of concealers in my 15+ years of wearing makeup. Here’s what I’ve finally found that works for me the best, hopefully it can help some others too! For reference: I don’t actually wear foundation anymore, just CT Flawless Filter/Elf Halo Glow Filter. (This method still works pretty well on top of most foundations I have though). I then put Armani Luminous Silk Concealer (in a shade that matches my skin tone, not a brightening shade) in the center of my face and blend outwards. I focus mainly on my nose and cheeks since I have large pores - this concealer literally does wonders for any imperfections, I swear, just gives such a beautiful finish. I do apply it under my eyes, but in a very thin layer, a little goes a long way. I use a sponge, but dense brushes work as well. Then I apply my Hourglass Vanish Airbrush concealer (a shade or two lighter than my skin tone) just in the inner and outer corners of my undereyes, SPARINGLY. This one also goes a looooong way. I also use it in other areas of my face that I want to bring forward. I believe the HG one has some type of particles in it that gives it that “airbrushed” look, lemme tell you, it works. I never have to set heavily under my eyes, even in humid climates. It never creases, never looks cakey, and brings that hallowness forward. For reference: As I mentioned it works well in very humid climates (where I’m from), but I’ve found it works amazingly in the desert climate I live in now.

Amanda, I have legendary eye hollows. When will you be doing your video on how to hide them? I'm excited. Everyone talks about concealing dark circles. You're the first that has mentioned actual hollows. It's anatomical, not due to aging. My surgeon told me if you have hollows under your eyes, go look at photos of yourself from childhood and you will probably see the same hollows!

Kosas revealer concealer in shades 2.5 c under the eyes and 3.2 o striped around my face makes a really really nice “my skin” base 😮 I love love love this stuff so much

I just recently tried the nyx serum concealer as foundation and it’s so nice!

Amandas declutters are my favorite

i would really love a video reviewing the dior one!

Enjoyed this video ✌🏼 I’m perpetually sifting through my collection just like this. I have deep set eyes and yes the hollows are a whole different animal to manage ❕

thank you for such precision ❤

Like you Kosas pretty much changed my life lol - now I know I don’t need to bother with other popular ones and just stick to the HG for hallow under eye gals like us

i need a highlight and a mascara version of this video 😭

Have you ever tried the L’Oréal infaillible more than concealer? It my ABSOLUTE holy grail! It’s quite affordable, in most stores and has a lot of coverage. Curious to see what you think about it😊

The Dior forever is my holy grail. I had been on a search for concealer and tried soooo many until I found the Dior.

Such a helpful video. Thanks!

I was surprised not to see Laura Mercier concealers! :D It's been my staple for some years, but I was wondering how it would compare to others in the range. But thank for such a thorough review! Indeed way more info than in a usual declutter so that's cool and useful for the reference! And it reminded me how I loved to use another CATRICE concealer for spot correction, gotta revisit that one

The Kosas concealer is so lovely under the eyes, I work for the orange competitors and still go to Sephora to buy it without a discount.

i have yet to purchase kosas but one of the shades was a perfect match for me when i tried instore and now i'm definitely going to purchase upon your recommendation :)! also i literally just finished watching ur foundation video 😭 this is a treat!

your voice is so calming

This is so helpful

i've had the same story with my hollowness. Excited to see your video

Amazing video, so helpful!! ❤

Thank you. This is very helpful.

YES I need that video on how to cover up hollowness under the eyes!!!! It is so hard!

I really like the dark green background. Peaceful.

Best concealer review I've seen

I use the Tarte CC corrector alone. Hollow & dark 50 year old eyes here. Curious about the Kosas now. Also the Tower 28 has great feedback. Thanks for this useful video.

Excellent video thanks Amanda. I'm going to try the Saie one next I think.❤
