The Bottom Line

Geared for masking dark under-eye areas, this peach concealer helps, but it’s not the cure-all that Everyday Minerals’ Mint Color Corrector is.

Pros

  • Minimizes the appearance of dark under-eye circles
  • Easy to apply
  • Blends in well with mineral foundations

Cons

  • Doesn’t completely mask under-eye circles
  • Several layers need to be applied before there’s any coverage
  • As with all of Everyday Minerals’ products, it’s a powder, so it can be messy if you’re not careful
  • Only available for purchase online

Description

  • Manufacturer: Everyday Minerals
  • Available sizes: sample - 5ml ($2.50), mini - 10ml ($4), or big - 25ml ($8)
  • Can be added to the free sample makeup kit, or any of the other custom kits, on EverydayMinerals.com

Guide Review - Review of Everyday Minerals Peach Color Corrector

Like most women, I tend to always have some darkness under my eyes, no matter how many hours of restful sleep I may get. After reading several glowing reviews of Everyday Minerals’ Peach Color Corrector on the MakeupAlley forums, I decided to give it a try. The results were decidedly mixed.

The concealer is easy to apply, and since it’s a powder, there’s no need to rub it into that sensitive under-eye area, as you might need to do with a liquid or creamy concealer. But in order to even out any of the darkness I had to brush on multiple layers of the powder. I also made the mistake of not using any kind of primer under my eyes the first time I tried it, which led to a streaky application.

After applying 3-4 layers I figured that was as good as it was going to get, and moved on to apply my mineral foundation. The peach concealer blended in well with the foundation, so I’m wasn't left with noticeably weird peach rings under my eyes. But the final look wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for. The darkness was definitely minimalized, but not gone. I’ll continue to use my supply until it runs out, but I won’t be reordering once it does.
