Concealer is an important part of my everyday make up routine. This is because I have redness, acne scarring, under eye bags and even though the majority of my spots have cleared up, I still get the odd one. I tend to use a medium coverage foundation and then use concealer to 'correct' these areas.

Swatched in the same order as above.
I don't know if it's very clear from the pictures above but the Collection 2000 one is definitely the creamiest. It blends like a dream and provides full on coverage. I use this on spots that are sort of dry as it keeps them hydrated. Another great thing about this concealer is that it really does last a long time which is great for my combination skin. The No7 one is pretty drying but it still provides good coverage and for this, I use it on my scarring. Another problem with this one is that it's very hard to blend and it makes it hard work - sometimes it even blends to nothing. I do like it, but I think it's hard work and therefore I'm on the lookout for another concealer for my scarring. The It Stick and the Eye Bright are what I use around my eye area. Both of these are gorgeously soft and easy to blend and they literally cover everything. After using these under my eyes, no one would have any idea that I had barely any sleep!
What concealers do you use? If any? And do you have any recommendations for concealers that are high strength for covering scarring?
